In text : Solutions of Questions on Page Number : 428 Q1 : What are polymers? Answer : Polymers are high molecular mass macromolecules, which consist of repeating structural units derived from monomers. Polymers have a high molecular mass (103 – 107 u). In a polymer, various monomer units are joined by strong covalent bonds. These polymers can be natural as well as synthetic. Polythene, rubber, and nylon 6, 6 are examples of polymers. Q2 : How are polymers classified on the basis of structure? Answer : Polymers are classified on the basis of structure as follows: 1. Linear polymers:…

In text : Solutions of Questions on Page Number : 412 Q1 : Glucose or sucrose are soluble in water but cyclohexane or benzene (simple six membered ring compounds) are insoluble in water. Explain. Answer : A glucose molecule contains five -OH groups while a sucrose molecule contains eight -OH groups. Thus, glucose and sucrose undergo extensive H-bonding with water. Hence, these are soluble in water. But cyclohexane and benzene do not contain -OH groups. Hence, they cannot undergo H-bonding with water and as a result, are insoluble in water. Q2 : What are the expected products of hydrolysis of…

In text : Solutions of Questions on Page Number : 212 Q1 :  Silver atom has completely filled d orbitals (4d10) in its ground state. How can you say that it is a transition element? Answer : Ag has a completely filled 4d orbital (4d10 5s1) in its ground state. Now, silver displays two oxidation states (+1 and +2). In the +1 oxidation state, an electron is removed from the s-orboital. However, in the +2 oxidation state, an electron is removed from the d-orbital. Thus, the d-orbital now becomes incomplete (4d9). Hence, it is a transition element. Q2 :  In…
