NEET 2023

Given below are two statements: one is labelled Assertion A and the other Reason R.

Assertion A: A reaction can have zero activation energy.

Reason R: The minimum extra amount of energy absorbed by reactant molecules so that their energy becomes equal to threshold value is called activation energy.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer:

Explanation

Zero $E_a$ is possible if reactants already possess threshold energy; R correctly defines $E_a$ and explains A.

NEET 2023

A compound is formed by two elements A and B. The element B forms cubic close packed structure and atoms of A occupy 1/3 of tetrahedral voids. If the formula of the compound is $A_x B_y$, then the value of $x + y$ is:

Explanation

In ccp, atoms = 4; tetrahedral voids = 8. A fills $8/3$. Ratio A:B $= 8/3 : 4 = 2:3$, so formula $A_2B_3$, $x+y=5$.

NEET 2023

The right option for the mass of CO₂ produced by heating 20 g of 20% pure limestone is (Atomic mass of Ca = 40):

$$\text{CaCO}_3 \xrightarrow{1200\,\text{K}} \text{CaO} + \text{CO}_2$$

Explanation

Pure CaCO₃ = 4 g $\Rightarrow$ moles = 0.04. CO₂ mass = $0.04 \times 44 = 1.76\ \text{g}$.

Explanation

Inert pair effect: for Tl, +1 state is more stable than +3 → TlI more stable than TlI₃.

NEET 2023

Identify product (A) in the following reaction:

COCH₃COCH₃

$$\xrightarrow[\text{conc. HCl}]{\text{Zn-Hg}}\ (A) + 2\,\text{H}_2\text{O}$$

Explanation

Clemmensen (Zn-Hg/HCl) reduces C=O of ketones completely to CH₂. Each –COCH₃ becomes –CH₂CH₃ (ethyl).

NEET 2023

Select the correct statements:

A. Atoms of all elements are composed of two fundamental particles. B. The mass of the electron is $9.10939 \times 10^{-31}$ kg. C. All the isotopes of a given element show same chemical properties. D. Protons and electrons are collectively known as nucleons. E. Dalton's atomic theory, regarded the atom as an ultimate particle of matter.

Explanation

A wrong (3 particles: p, n, e). D wrong (nucleons = p + n, not p + e). B, C, E correct.

NEET 2023

For a certain reaction, the rate $= k[A]^2[B]$. When the initial concentration of A is tripled keeping concentration of B constant, the initial rate would:

Explanation

Rate $\propto [A]^2$; tripling A $\Rightarrow$ rate $\times 3^2 = 9$.
