IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC REASONS FOR XI

Prepared By: Sir Hasham
XI CLASS
1. 1. Freely falling drop of liquid is spherical: (2001, 07, 2008, 2010)
Reason: Surface tension tends to reduce the surface area of the liquids. Since
sphere has the smallest ratio of surface area to volume therefore falling drop of
liquid becomes spherical due to surface tension.
1. 2. Evaporation is a cooling process: (2001, 2008)
Reason: during evaporation, high energy molecules escape from liquid surface
into gaseous phase for this reason average kinetic energy of remaining
molecules decreases and the temperature of liquid and its surrounding is
lowered. Thus evaporation is a cooling process.
1. 3. Pressure cooker cooks food quickly (2002)
Reason: Boiling point of liquid depends upon the external pressure. Greater the
external pressure, great will be the boiling point. In pressure cooker the vapours
are not allowed to escape due to which external pressure increases and boiling
point of water also increases. This increased boiling temperature is responsible
for rapid cooking.
1. 4. Foods take longer time to cook in high altitude areas. (2002,
Reason: In high altitude regions (Mountainous region) the boiling point of water
is below 100oC because of low atmospheric pressure (below 760 torr). Thus, in
such regions foods take longer time to cook due to the low boiling temperatures.
1. 5. At boiling point the temperature of liquid remains constant.
Reason: At boiling point, the average kinetic energy of molecules of liquids is
maximum. Further heating do not increase the temperature. Because the amount
of heat after boiling temperature is used to overcome intermolecular forces in
liquid and convert the molecules into vapours. This additive heat is taken away
by the vapours, which escape in the air. Hence the temperature of liquid at
boiling point remains constant.
1. 6. A drop of ink spreads on blotting paper. (2002,
Reason: Honey has greater molecular size and intermolecular forces of attraction
than water. Due to this reason the resistance to flow in honey is greater than the
water. Hence honey is more viscous than water.
1. 9. In mountain areas food takes longer time to cook.
Reason: The normal boiling point of glycerin is 290oC but at this temperature
glycerin decomposes. In order to overcome this difficulty it is distilled at 50 torr.
At 50 torr the boiling point of glycerin decreases to 210oC and it is distilled
without decomposition.
1. 11. Evaporation of a liquid is accelerated on heating?
1. 15. Different gases move with different velocities but they have same
kinetic energy at same temperature.
Reason: Boiling point of a liquid depends on the external pressure. Higher the
external pressure, greater is the boiling point. In mountain areas atmospheric
pressure is less than 760 torr. Therefore liquids boil at low temperature. At sea
level atmospheric pressure is greater than that of mountains; therefore boiling
point of liquids is high.
1. 17. Meniscus of water is concave (downward) but the meniscus of
mercury is convex (upward).
Reason: Diamond and graphite are the allotropic forms of carbon. In diamond
each carbon atom is sp3 hybridized. Carbon utilizes its four valence electrons in
covalent bond formation and there is no free electron in diamond, that’s why it
can’t conduct electricity
On the other hand, in graphite carbon atom is SP2 hybridized. Each carbon atom
uses three electrons in bond formation while 4th valence electron of each carbon
atom is free to move which is responsible for the flow of electric current. That’s
why graphite is a conductor of electricity.
1. 19. Milk get sour sooner in summer than in winter. (2002, 2010,
Reason:
At high temperature and by the action of bacteria milk, sugar i-e lactose is
converted into lactic acid and is turned sour.
20. Food is preserved in freezers: Why?
Reason:
Frozen food does not rot and decomposes because it is safe from the bacteria at
low temperature. Or in other words bacterial enzymatic activates are stopped at
low temperature.
21. Zinc dust is used for the preparation of H2 gas and not the chunk of zinc
powder as large surface area of reactant. (2002)
`Reason:
Zn dist is exposed more to the reaction of acid so it produces more H2 gas than
the small area of Zinc Chunk.
22. The reactions with powder marble are more vigorous than those with the
pieces of marble.
Reason:
The surface area of powdered marble becomes greater than the area of marble
pieces. So the rate of reaction increases (increase contact of reactant)
23. The density of ice is less than that of Water (2010,
Reason:
When the water is frozen it expands about 90 5 expansion of the volume
of ice than original volume of water takes place. This expansion exist is due to
the existence of hydrogen bonding in the water, during freezing state the
arrangement of hydrogen faces each other so repulsion occurs and ice becomes
less dense than water.
24. On heating sublime substances like iodine and camphor they directly change
from solid to gas.
Reason:
On heating ammonium chloride and camphor like substances directly converted
into gases (Vapors) and no liquid state is appeared in between this process
because the intermolecular forces between the molecule3s in such types of solid
is less than ordinary solids therefore high energy molecules at solid surface over
come the attractive forces and directly converted into vapors.
25. The liquids have capillary action. Or A liquid rises in a capillary tube (2001,
09)
Reason:
The liquids have capillary action because of adhesive force)force between liquid
and any other surface e.g glass , papers etc) are greater than cohesive forces
among the molecule of liquid. Also another reason is surface tension of liquid is
responsible for capillary action. The surface area to the volume ratio of a
capillary of small bore is much smaller than the container in which the liquid is
placed. Therefore a liquid rises.
26. CO2 is a non- polar compound. (2009, 08,
Reason:
It is non polar compound because the double bond lie on the straight line and the
molecule is symmetrical, the two dipole moments of molecule are equal and
opposite thus the molecule as a whole is non- polar and has zero dipole moment.
27. The energy of activation decreases with the increase of temperature (2009,
Reason:
When the temperature is increases, energy in the form of heat is supplied to the
reactants molecule as a result, the average speed of all the reactant molecules
increases, this leading to higher frequency of collision, which cause to decrease
the activation energy, and the reaction occurs at faster rate.
28. (a) The boiling point of liquid remains constant although heat is continuously
supplied to the liquid.
Reason:
In other words when continuous heat is supplied to the liquid, its temperature
does not rise further on reaching the boiling point of the liquid, the reasons for
this is that the heat which is constantly supplied is used up to convert the state
of the liquid into the gaseous vapor state this supply of heat which is used up in
changing the state of liquid can not be measured by the thermometer, this heat
is known as latent heat of vaporization
(b)A negative catalyst decreases the rate of reaction.
Reason:
A negative catalyst decreases the rate of a chemical reaction this is because a
negative catalyst does not decrease the energy of activation but increase the
value of the energy of activation. This results in decreasing the number of
successful collision and therefore decreases the rate of reaction.
29. A liquid has less viscous at high temperature.
Reason:
A viscosity of liquid decreases with high temperature because the
binding force of liquid becomes weaker ultimately viscosity is also decreased. So
the viscosity decreases with rise of temperature in a liquid 2 % per degree
increased.
30. Water has high boiling point than HF although fluorine has high
electronegative element? (2001)
Reason:
Because in water molecule there are two polar Hydrogen atoms present enables
three dimensional bonding Whereas in HF there is only one polar hydrogen atom
and it is therefore only possible to form chain of limited length that’s why the
boiling of water is greater than HF.

value.
