Give appropriate reasons for each of the following :
(a)Addition of `Cl_2` to Kl solution gives a brown colour but excess of `Cl_2` turns it colourless
(b)Perchloric acid is a stronger acid than sulphuric acid.
( c)HI can not be prepared by heating Nal with concentrated `H_2SO_4`

(a)`Cl_2` being a stronger oxidising agent than `I_2`, first oxidises KI to `l_2` which imparts brown colour to the solution.But when `Cl_2` is passed in excess , the `I_2` so formed gets further oxidised to `HIO_3` (colourless)
`2KI(aq)+Cl_2(g)to2KCl(aq)+I_2(s), 5Cl_2+I_2+6H_2Oto10HCl+2HIO_3`
(b)Oxidation state of Cl in `HCIO_4` is `+7` and that of S in `H_2SO_4` is +6.(Cl is more electronegative than S).As a result, `ClO_(3)` part of `HCIO_4` can break the O-H bond more easily to liberate a proton than `SO_2` part in `H_2SO_4`Thus `HCIO_4` is a stronger acid than `H_2SO_4`
( c)HI is a stronger reducing agent It, therefore, reduces `H_2SO_4` to `SO_2` and itself gets oxidised `l_2`
`Nal+H_(2)SO_(4)toNaHSO_(4)+HI]xx2`
`H_(2)SO_(4)+2HItoSO_(2)+l_(2)+2H_(2)O`
`overline(2Nal+3H_2SO_4toSO_2+l_2+ 2H_2O+SO_2`

When a brown compound of manganese [A] is treated with HCl, it gives a gas [B]. The gas taken in excess, reacts with `NH_(3)` to give as explosive com

The available information suggests that the brown compound [A] is manganese dioxide `[MnO_(2)]`. The reaction involved are given as follows : `underset((A))(MnO_(2)(s))+4Hcl(aq) to MnCl_(2)(aq)+2H_(2)O(aq)+underset((B))(Cl_(2)(g))` `NH_(3)(g)+ underset("(Excess)")(3Cl_(2)(g)) to underset("Explosive(C)")(NCl_(3))+3HCl`

Correct Answer - B `{:(,CoCl_2(g)hArr,CO(g)+Cl_2(g)),("Initial pressure",-,250" "280),("Equilibrium pressure",x,250-x " " 280-x):}` x+250-x+280-x=380 x=150 `K_P=0.114` `K_P=(P_(CO).P_(Cl_2))/(P_(COCl_2))implies K_P=(alpha^2 . P)/(1-alpha^2) implies 0.114 =(alpha^2 . 1)/(1-alpha^2)` hence `alpha=0.32 " " alpha=0.32` In presence of...

Explain the following: i) Beta-1,3-diene gives 1,2- and 1,4-addition products. ii) Addition of HBr to `H_(2)C=CHCH_(2)C-=CH` gives `CH_(3)CHBrCH_(2)C-

ii) The addition occurs at double bond because isolated double bond is more reactive than an isolated triple bond in electrophilic additions. iii) Electron releasing alkyl groups make pi-bond more...
