24. Option (iii) (C) and (D) is correct since Iodine is a non-polar molecular solid which acts as an insulator while H2O is a hydrogen bonded molecular solid which also acts as an insulator. Whereas Mg is a metal and acts as a conductor in solid and in its molten state and TiO is also an ionic solid which acts as an insulator in solid state but acts as a conductor in molten and in aqueous solutions.

1. Ans:
(a). According to Ellingham diagram, the reaction of CO2 is more feasible at temperatures lower than 710 K and thus it is a better reducing agent below 710 K.
While the reaction of CO is more feasible at temperatures higher than 710 K and thus it is a better reducing agent at above 710 K.
(b). According to the Ellingham diagram, the more negative the Gibbs free energy of a particular reaction the more feasible it is to carry out. Since the oxides are easier to reduce, sulfide ores are converted into oxides before reduction.
(c). To extract copper,

22. Option (i) London forces is correct since iodine molecules are nonpolar and covalent in nature. These molecules are found to be electrically symmetrical and have no dipole moment. The molecules in a crystal lattice of iodine are thus attracted together by weak London forces.

21. Option (ii) a regular arrangement of constituent particles observed over a long distance in the crystal lattice is correct since the regularity of the crystalline lattice creates local environments that are the same and hence crystals exhibit sharp melting point.

18. Option (iv) is correct since in antiferromagnetic substances the domains are oppositely oriented and hence they cancel out each other's magnetic moments.

17. Option (ii) Quartz glass (SiO2) is correct since quartz glass (SiO2)is amorphous in nature as there is no long range ordered arrangement of the constituent particles being present in it and hence it is an amorphous solid.
