Nuclear Chemistry - Fill Blanks Type

1. An element under [A,Z]M undergoes an α-emission followed by two successive β-emissions. The element formed is __________ . (JEE 1982)

answer: [A-4, Z]M
Refer:
α-emission
β-emission

2. The number of neutrons in the parent nucleus which gives 14N on beta emission is __________ . (JEE 1985)

Answer: 8
Reason: One proton increases to give 7 protons of nitrogen. Hence before beta emission there are 8 neutrons and 6 protons.

3. A radio active nucleus decays emitting one alpha and two beta particles; the daughter nucleus is ___________ of the parent. (JEE 1989)

Answer: isotope
Reason; Z is same but A is different.

Surface Chemistry - Fill Blanks Type

1. The absorption of hydrogen by palladium is commonly known as ___________ .
(JEE 1983)

Answer: occlusion
1. 3 g of a salt of molecular weight 30 is dissolved in 250 g of water. The molality of the solution is _____________ . (JEE 1983)

Answer; 0.4 mol kg-
Molality (m) = number of moles of solute/kilograms of solvent
0.1 mol salts dissolved in .25 kg of water. So m = 0.1/.25 = 0.4 mol/kg

2. Given that ΔTf is the depression in freezing point of the solvent in a solution of a non-volatile solute of molality, m, te quantity lim m→0 (ΔTf/m) is equal to _________________ . (JEE 1994)

Answer: Kf
