Answer: Used for the conversion of alcohol to gasoline.
 
Question. Explain the role of catalyst in a chemical reaction.
Answer: It lowers the activation energy & hence increases the rate of the reaction.
 
Question. Adsorption is always exothermic. Why?
Answer: During adsorption, the bonding takes place between adsorbate & adsorbent and there is a decrease in surface area & decrease in entropy.
 
Question. Define weeping of gels. Give the other name of weeping?
Answer: When gels are allowed to stand for a long time they give out small quantity of trapped liquid which accumulates on its surface. This action of gels is called as weeping, other name is syneresis.
 
Question. What is Thixotrophy?
Answer: Conversion of sol to gel is called thixotrophy.
 
Question. Why is FeCl3 preferred over KCl for a cut leading to bleeding?
Answer: Fecl3 has more positive charge and causes coagulation of blood quickly.
 
Question. Why is silica gel used as dehumidifier?
Answer: Silica gel adsorpes moisture on its surface quickly.
 
Question. Give the kinetics of adsorption of gases on metal surfaces.
Answer: Adsorption of gases on metal surfaces follows zero order kinetics.
 
Question. G is negative for adsorption process. Why?
Answer: Adsorption is exothermic & decrease in entropy occurs in adsorption.
 
Question. Give the significance of Brownian movement.
Answer: It gives stirring effect to the colloid. Hence colloidal particles do not aggregate. The colloid becomes stable.
 
Question. What happens when blood charcoal is shaken with conc. Kcl
Answer: in one case and its dilute KCl solution in other case? In conc. KCl positive adsorption occurs & in dilute Kcl negative adsorption occurs.
 
Question. Give the principle used in gas masks?
Answer: Competing adsorption
 
Question. Gold sol appears red , purple & also golden in colur Why?
Answer: Colour of the gold sol changes with its particle size.Its’ colour is red & becomes puple when size increases & finally becomes golden.
 
Question. Give the sign of ΔH & ΔS when Br2 gas gets adsorbed on charcoal.
Answer: ΔH = negative & ΔS = positive
 
Question. What is Argyrol?
Answer: Colloid of Ag with proteine(mild silver protein) Antiseptic & used for treating gonoria (a disease)
 
Question. What happens when NaCl is added to ferrichydroxide sol?
Answer: When NaCl is added to ferrichydroxide sol coagulation occurs.
 
Question. Differentiate dilute soap solution & concentrated soap solution.
Answer: Dilute soap solution behaves like a true solution & concentrated soap solution behaves like a colloid.
 
Question. Comment: Colloid is not a substance but it is a state of a substance.
Answer: The nature of the sub whether colloid or crystalloid depends upon the particle size.When the size of the solute particles lies between 1000 – 10000 pm , it behaves as a colloid & whenit is less than this value it behaves as a crystalloid. Thus Colloid is not a substance but it is a state of a substance which depeds upon the particle size.
 
Question. What happens when Fe(OH)3 is added to Gold sol?Why?
Answer: The Gold sol is negatively charged, Fe(OH)3 is positively charged & so coagulation occurs.Color of Gold sol changes from red to blue. Gold sol changes from red to blue due to the change in the particle size.
