What type of substances would make better permanent magnets, ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic . Justify your answer.
In case of ferromagnetic substaces the direction of domains align themselves in the direction of external magnetic field appllied . This leads to the formation of strong magnetic field. This magnetic field persists even on removing the external magnetic field. so the ferromagnmetic substances can be used for making the permanent magnet.
What type of defect can arise when a solid is heated ? Which physical property is affected by it and in what way ?
on supply of heat the lattice particles absorb energy and leave the lattice this may lead to the vacancy defect. In this case the density of the lattice decrease as the particles permanently leave the lattice. The lattice may become coloured .

What type of solids are electrical conductors , malleable and ductile ?
The metallic solids show these kind of characters.
Ionic solids conduct electricity in molten state but not in solid state. Explain.
In case of ionic solids , the ions are the units for the conduction of electricity. when they are in solid state the ions are bound to each other by strong electrostatic forces of attraction . But in the molten form the ions are free to move under the applied electric field thus they can…
Solid ‘A’ is very hard , electrical insulator in solid as well as in molten state and melts at extremely high temperature. what type of solid is it ?
The covalent (network) solid has these kind of characters. It is insulator and has high forces of attractions due to which it has high melting point.
Refractive index of a solid is observed to have the same value along all directions . Comment on the nature of solid . Would it show cleavage property ?
The solid which has same value for refractive index in all directions , shows isotropic behaviour and such solids are only the amorphus solids. As it is an amorphus solid so it will not show the clean cut due to the presence of rough surface.
Why the solids are rigid?
The solids have strong interparticulate forces which bind the particles so close that they can only oscillate about their mean position only.
Why the boiling point of carboxylic acids is higher than that of the corresponding alcohols ?
In case of carboxylic acids the OH bond is more polar due to the presence of carbonyl group. The C=O group attracts more electrons towards itself which makes the -OH more polar. Due to higher polarity the magnitude of H-bonding also increase considerably in case of carboxylic acids as compared to alcohols. So the boiling…
Why Formaldehyde is more reactive then other aldehydes? justify .
The reactivity of Aldehydes depend upon two factors . 1 Steric effect :- The reactivity of aldehyde depends upon the fact that the nucleophile will attack on the Carbon atom of the carbonyl group. If it is less crowded the nucleophile can easily approach it and can easily react. So lesser is the hinderance more…
why do aldehydes and ketones undergo nucleophillic addition reaction ?
in case of aldehydes and ketones there is a carbonyl group present in the molecule as shown below :- The oxygen is more electrongative than the carbon , due this the polarity develops in the C=O bond. The carbon becomes partially positive and the oxygen becomes partially negative . This decreases the electron density on…

what are transition metals and why they are called so ?
These are the elements which invove the filling of d-subshell. And these elements lie in between the s-block and p-block elements so these are known as transition elements.

Why the but-2-ene is major product of beta elimination of 2-Bromobutane ?
This is due to the following reason :- This is in accordance with sytzeff rule that whenever two alkenes are theoretically possible during a dehydrohalogenation reaction , it is always the more highly substituted alkene which predominates . It can also be best understood by the following illustrations showing the stabilizes of primary(1°) , secondary…

In case of unsymmetrical alkenes the addition of hydrogen halide takes place according to the markovnikov’s rule . During this reaction under markovnikov’s rule the positive part of the attacking reagent joins with the carbon with more number of Hydrogen and the negative part of attacking reagent joins with the more substituted carbon.
