(2x4)
 * 1) Answer any four of the following:
 * 2) The phase diagram of water system is useful to explain survival of aquatic life in sub zero conditions. Comment.
 * 3) Molality of a solution does not depend on temperature. Comment.
 * 4) If partial molar volume of one of the components in a mixture increases, that of the other decreases. Explain.
 * 5) If the standard free energy of a reaction is zero, the extent of reaction at equilibrium is small. Comment.
 * 6) Explain why the aqueous solution of sodium acetate is alkaline while that of CuSO4is acidic in nature.
 * 7) The pH of pure water at 40° C is 6.75 still it is not acidic. Explain.
 * 8) Molecular mass of acetic acid in water calculated from osmotic pressure measurement is less than its normal molecular mass.

2.(i)The pH of 0.1 mol dm–3 solutions of three sodium salts NaX, NaY and NaZ are respectively 7.0, 9.0 and 11.0. Arrange the acids HX, HY and HZ in the order of their increasing strength. Calculate the Ka of these acids wherever possible. (ii) What are the concentrations of H+, HSO-4, SO42– and H2SO4 in a 0.2 mol dm–3 solution of sulphuric acid? Given, first step dissociation of sulphuric acid is strong and K2 = 1.3x10-2. (iii)Derive the relation for pH of a solution of a salt whose cation and anion both undergo hydrolysis. (2,2,2) 3(i)Derive the relation between degree of dissociation, α, and van’t Hoff factor, i, for an electrolyte that undergoes dissociation in water. (ii) A solution containing 0.64g of naphthalene (molar mass 128 g mol–1) in 50.0g of CCl4 boils at a temperature higher than that of pure CCl4 by 0.45°C. If a solution of 0.722g of another no-volatile solute in the same quantity of CCl4 yields a boiling point elevation of 0.65°C, calculate the molar mass of the solute. (iii) What is molal depression in freezing point constant of a solvent? What are the assumptions made while deriving its expression? (2½,2,1½) 4(i)A substance X exists in two crystalline forms α and β. α exists at lower temperature and β exists at higher temperature. The density of liquid X is less than that of solid X. No metastable state exists. Draw a well labeled phase diagram. From the graph identify the minimum and maximum temperature at which X can exist in liquid state.

8 (i)Using the Duhem-Margules equation show that if the solvent obeys Raoult’s law then the solute will obey Henry’s law for the same composition range.

(ii) Show that the saturated vapour in equilibrium with its binary solution is richer in that component whose addition to the solution increases the total vapour pressure at constant temperature. (iii)It has been found that CST for phenol-water system is increased by the addition of small amount of potassium chloride and decreased by the addition of small amount of succinic acid. Explain why.
