force of attraction is weakest is -
(A) Nylon (B) Poly(vinyl chloride)
(C) Cellulose (D) Natural Rubber

5. Henry's Law
The solubility of a gas is related to its pressure by Henry's law.
The mass of a gas dissolved per unit volume of the solvent at a given temperature is proportional to the pressure of the gas in equilibrium with the solution.
m = Kp
m = mass of the gas dissolved in a unit volume of the solvent.
p = is the pressure of the gas in equilibrium with the solution
K = proportionality constant
Alternative statement
The pressure of a gas over a solution in which the gas is dissolved is proportional to the mole fraction of the gas dissolved in the solution.
p = Kx
p = partial vapour pressure
x = mole fraction of the gas in the solvent
K = Henry's law constant
Problem
The Henry's law constant for the solubility of N2 gas in water at 298 K is 1.0 × 105
atm. The mole fraction of N2 in air is 0.8. The number of moles of N2 from air dissolved in 10 moles of water at 298 K and 5 atm
pressure is -
Answer: 4.0 × 10-4
6. Acidity order of aromatic carboxylic acids and phenol
Benzoic acid (–COOH) is more acidic than phenol. Electron withdrawing group increase acidic nature &
electron donating group decrease acidity.
7. Among the electrolytes Na2SO4, CaCl2, Al2(SO4)3 and NH4Cl, the most effective coagulating agent for
Sb2S3 sol is -
Sb2S3 is negatively charged sols. Because of the formation higher positive charge ions coagulating power
of Al2(SO4)3 is the highest
8. Reactions of Phosphorous
The reaction of P4 with X leads selectively to P4O6. The X is -
(A) Dry O2 (B) A mixture of O2 and N2
(C) Moist O2 (D) O2 in the presence of aqueous NaOH
Answer B
P4 is converted to P4O6 in the presence of limited supply of oxygen.

Answers: B,C
11. Geometrical isomerism of organometallic compounds
12. Stereoisomers
The correct statement(s) about the compound H3C(HO)HC–CH=CH–CH(OH)CH3 (X) is (are)
(A) The total number of stereoisomers possible for X is 6
(B) The total number of diastereomers possible for X is 3
(C) If the stereochemistry about the double bond in X is trans, the number of enantiomers possible for X is 4
(D) If the stereochemistry about the double bond in X is cis, the number of enantiomers possible for X is 2
Answer: A,D
13. Anilines
p-Amino-N, N-dimethylaniline is added to a strongly acidic solution of X. The resulting solution is treated
with a few drops of aqueous solution of Y to yield blue coloration due to the formation of methylene blue.
Treatment of the aqueous solution of Y with the reagent potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) leads to the
formation of an intense blue precipitate. The precipitate dissolves on excess addition of the reagent.
Similarly, treatment of the solution of Y with the solution of potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) leads to a
brown coloration due to the formation of Z.
