In SF6 s atom has 12 valence electron
12. Which of the following is not correct regarding the properties of ionic compounds (2004-E)
1. Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points.
2. Their reaction velocity in aqueous medium is very high.
3. Ionic compounds in their molten and aqueous solutions do not conduct electricity.
4. They are highly soluble in polar solvents.
Ans: 3
Sol: Ionic compounds in their molten state and aqueous solution conducts electricity hence (3).
Is the wrong answer.
13. Which of the following statement is not correct (2004-M)
1. One of the favourable conditions for the formation of cation is low ionisation potential.
2. Co-ordintion number of Cs in CsCl is 8
3. Ionic bond is directional.
4. Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points.
Ans: 3
Sol: Ionic bond is non directional
∴ (3) in the wrong answer
14. If the boiling point of ethanol (molecular weight -46) is 78°C. What is the boiling point of diethyl
ether (molecular weight=74)? (2004-M)
0 0 0 0
1. 100 C 2. 78 C 3. 86 C 4. 34 C
Ans: 4
Sol: Alcohols have high boiling point than ethers due to the presence of intermolecular hydrogen
bond.
15. Which one of the following is a correct set? (2003-E)
3 2
1. H 2O, sp , angular 2. H 2O, sp , linear
+ 2 2
3. NH 4 , dsp , square planar 4. CH 4 , dsp , tetrahedral
Ans: 1
Sol. In H2O oxygen atom undergoes sp3 hybridisation shape of the molecule is angular due to
repulsion between lone pairs of electron hence (1) is correct.
0
16. If the bond length and dipole moment of a diatomic molecule are 1.25 A and 1.0 D respectively,
what is the percent ionic character of the bond? (2003-E)
1. 10.66 2. 12.33 3. 16.66 4. 19.33
Ans: 3

18. Which one of the following is the correct set with respect to molecule, hybridization and shape?
(2003-M)
2 2
1. BeCl2 , sp , linear 2. BeCl 2 , sp , triangular planar
2 3
3. BCl3 , sp , triangular planar 4. BCl3 , sp , tetrahedral
Ans: 3
Sol. In BCl3 . ‘B’ atoms undergoes sp2 hybridisation and shape of the molecule is trigonal planar
hence (3) is the correct choice.
19. Which one of the following is the correct set with reference to molecular formula, hybridisation
of central atom and shape of the molecule? (2002-M)
2 2 3
1. CO2 , sp , bent 2. H 2O, sp , bent 3. BeCl2 , sp , linear 4. H 2O, sp , linear
Ans: 3
Sol. In BeCl2 . Be atom undergoes sp hybridization and shape of the molecule is linear hence (3) in
the correct choice.
0
20. An element M reacts with chlorine to from a compound X. The bond angle in X is 120 . What
is M? (2002-M)
1. Be 2. B 3. Mg 4. N
Ans: 2
Sol. 2B + 3Cl 2 ⎯⎯ → 2BCl3
BCl3 ⎯⎯
→ sp 2 hybridization
And shape of molecule trigonal planar bond angle is 120°.
−1
21. The bond energies (in K J mol ) of P-H, As-H and N-H respectively are (2002-E)
1. 247, 318 and 389 2. 247, 389 and 318 3. 318, 389 and 247 4. 318, 247 and 389
Ans: 4
Sol. Decreasing order of stability NH3 > PH3> AsH3
Decreasing order of bond energy N – H > P – H > As – H
