On  adding  NaOH  to  ammonium  sulphate,  a  colourless  gas  with  pungent  odour  is evolved, which forms a blue-coloured complex with Cu2+ ion. Identify the gas.

Solution

On adding NaOH to ammonium sulphate, ammonia gas is evolved. It has a pungent odour and forms a blue-coloured complex with the Cu2+ ion. The chemical reactions are as:

Write the main reason for the stability of colloidal sols.

Solution

There are two main reasons for the stability of colloidal sols:
Solvation: Colloidal particles are covered by a sheath of liquid in which they are extensively solvated, thereby providing stability.

Electrostatic stabilisation: Presence of equal and similar charges on the colloidal particles prevents coagulation of the colloidal sol.

When a co-ordination compound CrCl3.6H2O is mixed with AgNO3, 2 moles of AgCl are precipitated per mole of the compound. Write
(i)Structural formula of the complex.
(ii)IUPAC name of the complex.

Solution

When a coordination compound CrCl3.6H2O  is mixed with AgNO3 it gives tow moles of AgCl, therefore, the structural formula would contain two Cl ions satisfying the primary valencies, while five H2O molecules and one Cl− ion are present in the coordination sphere, making the coordination number 6. One H2O molecule will be present as the molecule of hydration.

Structural formula: [CrCl(H2O)5]Cl2.H2O
IUPAC name of the compound: Pentaaquachloridochromium(III) chloride
