Allotropy is the occurence of same eleme...

Allotropy is the occurence of same element in two or more different physical forms having more or less similar chemical properties but different physical properties. The different forms of the element are called allotropes. Allotropy is due to the difference in the arrangement of atoms in solid state. Allotropes may be crystalline or amorphous
Which among the following statements are correct ?

A

Aquadag and oildag are made up of graphite

B

Graphite reacts with conc. `HNO_(3)` to form mellitic acid `C_(6)(COOH)_(6)`

C

`C_(3)O_(2)` is also toxic like CO

D

COO is non poisonious gas

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

    The necessary condition for a molecule to exhibit optical isomerism is dissymmetry or chiral. Thus all organic compounds which contain one as symetric carbon atom are chiral and exist in two stereoisomers. Although the two forms have the same structure, they have different arrangements of groups about the as symmetric carbon. In fact, they represent as symetric molecules. They do not have a plane of symmetry. They are related to each other as an object to its mirror image and are non superimposable. The two structures actually stand for dextro or (+) and leavo or (-) isomers. Since they are related each other as mirror images, they are commonly called enantiomers.

    Both alkali metals and alkaline earth metals are s - block elements. They resemble each other respect but still there are certain dismilariaties in their properties due to number of eletrons in the valence shell different atomic radii, ionisation enthalpy, electronegativity etc. Which of the following statements are true for group ? electrons ?

    It is not possible to measure the atomic radius precisely since the electron cloud surrounding the atom doesnot have sharp boundary. One practical approach to estimate the size of an atom of a non-metallic element is to measure the distance between two atoms when they are bound together by a single bond in a covalent molecule and then dividing by two. For metals we define the term "metallic radius" which is taken as half the internuclear distance separating the metal cores in the metallic crystal. The vander Waal's radius represents the overall size of the atoms which includes its valence shell in a nonbonded situation. It is the half of the distance between two similar atoms in separate molecules in a solid. The atomic radius decreases across a period and increases down the group. Same trends are observed in case of ionic radius. Ionic radius of the species having same number of electrons depends on the number of protons in their nuclei. Which of the following statement is correct?

    Be and Al exhibit many properties which are similar, but the two elements differ in
