a) 1𝑠 , 2𝑠 2𝑝 b) 1𝑠 , 2𝑠 2𝑝 , 3𝑠 c) 1𝑠 , 2𝑠 2𝑝 d) 1𝑠 , 2𝑠 2𝑝
5. The number of sigma and pi (𝜋) bonds present in benzene respectively are
a) 12, 6 b) 6, 6 c) 6, 12 d) 12, 3
6. If 𝑍-axis is the molecular axis, then 𝜋-molecularorbitals are formed by the overlap of
a) 𝑠 + 𝑝𝓏 b) 𝑝 + 𝑝 c) 𝑝𝓏 + 𝑝𝓏 d) 𝑝 + 𝑝

Mg ⟶ Mg + 2e is:
a) +170 kcal b) +526 kcal c) -170 kcal d) -526 kcal
13. Which one of the following orders is not in according with the property stated against it?
a) F > 𝐶l > 𝐵r > I ∶ Electronegativity
b) F > 𝐶l > 𝐵r > I : Bond dissociation energy
c) F > 𝐶l > 𝐵r > I : Oxidising power
d) HI > 𝐻𝐵𝑟 > 𝐻𝐶𝑙 > 𝐻𝐹 : Acidic property in water.
16. The attraction that non-polar molecules have for each other is primarily caused by:
a) Hydrogen bonding
b) Difference in electronegativities
c) High ionisation energy
d) Van der Waals’ forces
17. For AB bond if per cent ionic character is plotted against electronegativity difference (𝑋 − 𝑋 ), the shape
of the curve would look like
18. The formation of the oxide ion O (g)requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown
below,
O(g) + 𝑒 ⟶ O (g) ; ∆𝐻 = −142 kJ/mol
O (g) + 𝑒 ⟶ O (g) ; ∆𝐻 = 844 kJ/mol
This is because:
a) O ion has comparatively larger size than oxygen atom
b) Oxygen has high electron affinity
c) O ion will lead to resist the addition of another electron
d) Oxygen is more electronegative
