Chemisorption involves formation of bond...

Chemisorption involves formation of bond between gaseous molecules or atoms and the solid surface for which high energy is required. Thus it is also referred as

A

Chemical adsorption

B

positive adsorption

C

activated adsorption

D

passive adsorption

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Chemisorption is also referred as activated adsorption since it induces high activation energy.

Assertion : The crystalline solids have a sharp melting point. Reason: All the bonds between the atoms or molecules fo a crystalline solids are equally strong, that they get broken at the same temperature.

L.C.A.O. Principle is involved in the formationof the molecular orbitals according ot molecular orbital theory. The energy of the bonding molecular orbital is less than that of thecombining atomic orbitals while that of the antibonding molecular orbitals while that of the order (B.O.)=1/2(N_(b)-N_(a)) helps in predicting (i) formation of molecules/molecular ions, bond dossociation energy, stability and bond length. Only the molecules or ions with positive B.O. can be formed. These will be diamagnetic if all molecular orbitals are dilled and paramagnetic if one of more are half filled. The atomic prbitals at the time of overlap must have the same symmetry as well. The bond order (B.O.) in B_(2) molecule is:

Geometry of organic compound is often described in terms of the valence shell electron pair repulsion theory. The VSEPR model rests on the premise that an electron pair, either bonded pair or an unshared pair, associated with a particular atom will be as far away from the atom's other electron pairs as possible. The tricoordinate carbon atoms of an alkene or carbonyl group also form bonds with angles near 120^(@) . In these compounds, unsaturated double bonds have two electron pairs-those of the sigma and pi bonds. Repulsion by these two pairs are some what greater than those between single bonds, so that deviation from exact 120^(@) trigonal geometry is observed. Another factor which has important influence on shapes is non bonded repulsion between the atoms within the molecule. Such repulsion is also referred to as steric effects. Select the correct sequence of bond angles indicated in the above molecules.

Assertion(A): Physical adsorption of milecules on the surface requires activation energy. Reason(R): Because the bonds of adsorbed molecules are broken.

The bond dissociation energy of a diatomic molecule is also called bond energy. However, the bond dissociation energy depends upon the nature of bond and also the molecule in which the bond is present. The bond energy N-H bind in NH_(3) is equal to one-third of the energy of dissociation of NH_(3) because there are three N-H bonds and those of C-H bond in CH_(4) is equal to one-fourth of the energy of dissociation of CH_(4) Heat of a reaction = Bond energy of reactants - Bond energy of products In which of the following, the bond enthalpy and bond dissociation enthalpy are identical ?
