C8. 1. Answer (3)

NO is not the anhydride of any acid.
2. Answer (3)
N2O4 do not have any unpaired electron hence it is diamagnetic while NO and NO2 have unpaired electron.
3. Answer (1)
2NO2 + H2O HNO2 + HNO3
C9. 1. Answer (4)
Siderite (FeCO3) is an mineral/ore of iron.
2. Answer (4)
On roasting all these sulphide ores are partly converted into their respective oxides. Since oxides of Cu,
Hg and Pb are unstable, while that of Zn is stable therefore oxides of Hg, Cu and Pb bring about the
reduction of their sulphide to metal (Called self reduction) but ZnO does not reduce ZnS to Zn metal
3 Zn + SO2
ZnS + 2 ZnO

3. Answer (4)
Electrostatic beneficiation is used to separate constituents of ore having different electrical conductivity.
This technique mainly separates conductors and non-conductors. Metallic sulphide ores are conductors
while silicates, carbonates, phosphates are non-conductors. So a mixture having sulphide and carbonate
ore can be separated by this method.

3. Answer (2)
CaO is basic
C13. 1. Answer (1)
Cu+2 have 3d9 electronic configuration. So, it is coloured due to d-d transition.
2. Answer (1)
KFe[Fe(CN)6] (Turnbulls blue) is coloured due to charge transfer from metal to metal.
3. Answer (3)

VO 43 have no e in d-orbital, so it is coloured due to charge transfer from ligand to metal.

C14. 1. Answer (4)
It contains ambidentate ligand.
2. Answer (1)
3. Answer (1)
Absence of plane of symmtry and centre of symmetry
C15. 1. Answer (3)
CO show synergic bonding. So it act as donor and acceptor. Due to both bond order may increase or
decrease depend on the metal with which it is attached.
2. Answer (1)
CO and CN are very strong ligand and these are donor and acceptor due to which bond formed is
strong.
3. Answer (1)
F act as strong ligand totally based on electrostatic effect.
