Q1
Why is adsorption always exothermic?
Marks:1View AnswerAnswer:
Adsorption is a surface phenomenon.Adsorbate molecules are held to adsorbent due to attractive interactions. Since energy is always released during attractive interactions, adsorption is always exothermic.

Q3
Why does NO2 dimerise?
Marks:1View AnswerAnswer:
NO2 contains odd number of valence electrons. It dimerises, so that it can have even number of electrons in valence shell and form a more stable N2O4 molecule.

Q10
Describe the roles of the following:
(i) SiO2 in the extraction of copper from copper matte
(ii) NaCN in froth floatation processMarks:2View AnswerAnswer:
(i) In the extraction of copper from copper matte, SiO2 is used to remove iron oxide as slag.
FeO + SiO2
FeSiO3(ii) In the froth floatation process, NaCN is used as a depressant. During separation of two sulphide ores, it selectively prevents one ore from forming froth. For example, when NaCN is added to ores containing ZnS and Pbs, it allows PbS to come with froth, but prevents ZnS from coming to froth by forming Na2[Zn(CN)4] on reaction with ZnS.
