This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Mass of H2O2 = 68 g.
Mol. Mass of H2O2=34gmol-1
∴1L of M solution of H2O2 will contain H2O2=34*5 g
∴2L of 5 M solution will contain H2O2=34*5*2=340g
or 200 mL of 5 solution will contain H2O2 = 200 = 34 g
Now 2H2O2 → 2H2O+O2
64 g 32g
Now 68 g of H2O2 on decomposition will give O2=32g
∴34g of H2O2 on decomposition will give O2 = 34 =16 g

(i) Industrial preparation: H2O2 is prepared by the auto-oxidation of 2- alkylanthraquinols
2-ethylanthraquinol ↔ H2O2+ oxidised product
2Fe2+ (aq)+2H+ (aq)+H2O2 → Fe3 (aq)+2H2O (l)
PbS (s)+4H2O2 (l) → PbSO4 (s)+4H2O (l)
(ii) Reducing action of hydrogen peroxide
2MnO4-+6H++5H2O2→ 2Mn2++8H2O+5H2
HOCl+H2O2 → H3O++Cl-+O2
Oxidising action of hydrogen peroxide
2Fe2++H2O2→ 2Fe3++2OH-
Mn2++H2O2 → Mn4++2OH-
Acidic properties of H2O2
I2+H2O2+2OH-→ 2I-+2H2O+H2
2MnO4-+3H2O2→ 2MnO2+3O2+2H2O+2OH-

Ans: According to Le Chatelier's principle, when we raise the temperature, it shifts the equilibrium to left and decreases the equilibrium concentration of ammonia since it is an exothermic reaction. In other words, low temperature and high pressure is favourable for high yield of ammonia. There will be no change in equilibria on addition of argon (Ar).

Ans: The values of Kc and Qc are itself sufficient to explain the direction of reaction and less than or greater than one another decides the direction in which reaction will proceed as follows-
(i) As Qc < Kc, the reaction proceeds in the forward direction.
(ii) If Qc > Kc, the reaction will proceed in the direction of reactants (reverse reaction).
(iii) If Qc = Kc, no net reaction occurs.

Hydrogen peroxide is produced by acidifying barium peroxide and eliminating surplus water by evaporation under low pressure. Water is used to extract it, then distillation under lower pressure concentrates it to around 30% (by mass). Careful distillation under low pressure can increase the concentration to 85%. To achieve pure H2O2, the residual water can be frozen out.

Uses of H2O2:
(i) As an antiseptic it is sold in the market as perhydrol.
(ii) It is used to manufacture chemicals like sodium perborate and per - carbonate. It is employed in the industries as a bleachin

D2O can be prepared by prolonged electrolysis of water. Due to high molecular mass D2O differs from water.
NaOH+D2O → NaOD+HOD
HCl+D2O → DCl+ HOD
NH4Cl+D2O → NH3DCl+HOD

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Atomic hydrogen is highly reactive, whereas molecular hydrogen is rather inert. Bond dissociation enthalpy determines the chemical behaviour of dihydrogen (and, for that matter, any molecule) to a great extent. For a single bond between two atoms of any element, the H-H bond dissociation enthalpy is the highest. As a result, molecular hydrogen reacts only with a few elements.

This is a Assertion Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Option (iv)
Both the statements given in the assertion and reason are false.
The energy required to break the first O-H bond is not same than that of the second O-H bond in water molecule, that means the bond enthalpies of the two O-Hare different. This is because the electronic environment around the oxygen atom in water molecules is not the same even after the O-H bond breaks.

This is a Assertion Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: Option (i)
The statements given in the assertion and reason, both are correct and the reason given is the correct explanation for the assertion. In NH3 only one lone pair of electron is present and due to that lone pair-bond pair repulsion occurs which forms a distorted tetrahedral geometry (pyramidal) .
In H2O two lone pairs of electrons are present on the oxygen atom and due to this lone pairlone pair repulsion occurs which shifts the bonds and forms a bent geometry. The lone pair-lone pair repulsion is more than the lone pair-bond pair repulsion. Thus, bond angle i
