Question: 1
Metals are good conductor of electricity. Why?
Answer: 1
1-40Metals are good conductors of electricity because metals have free electrons which are mobile in nature. Spaces are present among the atoms. Mobile electrons can move freely in these spaces. Hence, movement/flow of electrons is known as electricity that's why metals are good conductor of electricity.
Question: 2
What is relationship between electronegativity and polarity?
Answer: 2
2-40Electronegativity values of the atoms play a very important role in polarity of compounds. These two terms have direct relationship with one another, because of electronegativity difference is high then more polar bond will be and vice versa.
Question: 3
Define chemical bond.
Answer: 3
3-40A chemical bond is defined as a force of attraction between atoms that holds them together in a molecule.
Question: 4
What is triple covalent bond, explain with an example?
Answer: 4
4-40When each bonded atom contributes three electrons, three bond pairs are involved in bond formation . This type is called triple covalent bond. Three small lines are used to indicate these three pairs of electrons between those atoms in the molecules of such compounds. For example N2 & C2H2
Question: 5
Why a covalent bond becomes polar?
Answer: 5
5-40When there is a difference of electronegativity between two covalently bonded atoms there will be unequal attraction for the bond pair of electrons between such atoms. It will result in the formation of polar covalent bond.
Question: 6
Why noble gases are non-reactive?
Answer: 6
6-40The noble gases do have 2 or 8 electrons in their valence shells. It means all the noble gases have their valence shells completely filled . Their atoms do not have vacant space in their valence shell to accommodate extra electrons. therefore noble gases do not gain, lose or share electrons. That's why they aare non-reactive.
Question: 7
Why does sodium form a chemical bond with chlorine?
Answer: 7
7-40Sodium losses one electron and chlorine accept one electron to complete its octet. Because sodium is electropositive and lose electron and becomes stable while chlorine is electronegative it gains one electron from sodium and complete its octet and becomes stable . Hence sodium forms chemical bond with chlorine.
Question: 8
What is meant by VanderWaalsforces?
Answer: 8
8-40All intermolecular forces, which are collectively called Vander Waals forces, are in electricalin nature.
Question: 9
Why does ice float on water?
Answer: 9
9-40Floating of ice on water is because of hydrogen bonding . The density of lice at 0 Degree centigrade . In the liquid state water molecules move randomly. However, water freezes, the molecules arrange themselves in an ordered form, that gives them open structure. This process expands the molecules that results in ice being less dense as compared to water
Question: 10
What is ionic bond? Give an example.
Answer: 10
10-40A chemical bond which is formed due to complete transfer of electron from one atom to another atom is called ionic bond.
Question: 11
What is meant by bonding electron?
Answer: 11
11-40The valence electrons, which are involved in chemical bonding, are termed as bonding electrons.
Question: 12
Ionic compounds are solids. Justify.
Answer: 12
12-40Ionic compounds are made up of positively and negatively charged ions. Thus, they consist of ions and not the molecules. These positively and negatively chareed ions are held together in a solid or crystal form with strong electrostatic attractive forces. So, ionic compounds are solid in nature.
Question: 13
What type of covalent bond is formed in nitrogen molecule?
Answer: 13
13-40In nitrogen molecule, three bond pairs are involved in bond formation. This type is called triple covalent bond. Three small lines are used to indicate these three pairs of electrons between those atoms in the molecules of such compounds.
Question: 14
Why is BF3 electron deficient?
Answer: 14
14-40In BF3 molecule, three valence electrons of boron atom pair up with three electrons. One from each of three fluorine atoms. The boron atom even after the sharing of electron remain shortage of 2 electrons in its outer most shell.
Question: 15
Why do atoms form chemical bonds?
Answer: 15
15-40Atoms achieve stability by attaining electronic configuration of inert gases ns2 or ns2. Atoms combine with one another, which is called chemical bond.
Question: 16
Give properties of Ionic compound?
Answer: 16
16-401- They Conduct electricity, but only when they are dissolved in water.
2- They are hard
Question: 17
What types of electron pairs make a molecule good donor?
Answer: 17
17-40The Ionic pair of electron make a molecule good donor
Question: 18
Define dipole-dipole inteaction?
Answer: 18
18-40The net forces of attraction between oppositely charged ends of two adjacent molecules . These attractive forces are called dipole-dipole interaction.
Question: 19
Difference between Duplet rule and Octet rule?
Answer: 19
19-40Attaining two electrons in the valance shell is called duplet rule.
Question: 20
Why are dipole forces of attraction not found in halogen molecules?
Answer: 20
20-40Dipole forces of attraction do not found in halogen molecules because they have same electronegativity and there is equal sharing of electrons.
Question: 21
Write molecule is polar how?
Answer: 21
21-40A Polar molecule forms when an atom of high electronegativity such as chlorine, bonds with a less electronegative atom such as hydrogen.
Question: 22
Define Co ordinate covalent bond?
Answer: 22
22-40Their property are mostly similar to those of covalent compounds. As the nuclei in these compounds are held by shared pair of electrons, Therefore, they do not form ions in water.
Question: 23
Why ionic compounds easily dissolve in water?
Answer: 23
23-40They dissolve easily in water because water is a polar solvent and has high dielectric constant that weakens the attraction between ions.
Question: 24
What do you mean by dipole induced forces?
Answer: 24
24-40When partial positive and partial negative charges exist at different positions in a molecule, the adjacment molecules with arrange themselves in such a way that negative portion of that molecules come near to positive portion of other molecule it results in a net forces of attraction between oppositely charged potions of two adjacent molecules.
Question: 25
What is meant by triple covalent bond?
Answer: 25
25-40When each bonded atom contributes three electrons, three bond pairs are involved in bond formation. Thid type is called triple covalent bond.

Why the electrons move freely in metals?
Answer: 38
38-40This is because the valence shell electrons loosely held by nucleus of an atom.there is the weak force of attraction present between nucleus and the mobile valence electrons. Therefore valence electrons move freely in metals.
