11. The number of electrons involved in the reduction<br />

of nitrate ion to hydrazine is<br />

(a) 8 (b) 7<br />

(c) 5 (d) 3<br />

12. A certain mass of gas occupies a volume of 300 cc at<br />

27°C and 620 mm pressure. The volume of this gas<br />

at 47°C and 640 mm pressure will be<br />

(a) 400 cc<br />

Assertion & Reason Type<br />

Directions : In the following questions, a statement of<br />

assertion is followed by a statement of reason. Mark the correct<br />

choice as :<br />

(a) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the<br />

correct explanation of assertion.<br />

(b) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the<br />

correct explanation of assertion.<br />

(c) If assertion is true but reason is false.<br />

(d) If both assertion and reason are false.<br />

13. Assertion : It is impossible to determine the exact<br />

position and exact momentum of an electron<br />

simultaneously.<br />

Reason : The path of an electron in an atom is<br />

clearly defined.<br />

14. Assertion : Kjeldahl method is not applicable to<br />

nitro <strong>com</strong>pound, azo <strong>com</strong>pound and pyridine.<br />

Reason : Kjeldahl method is used for halogen<br />

estimation.<br />

15. Assertion : Bromobenzene upon reaction with<br />

Br 2 /Fe gives 1, 4-dibromobenzene as the major<br />

product.<br />

Reason : In bromobenzene, the inductive effect<br />

of the bromo group is more dominant than the<br />

mesomeric effect in directing the in<strong>com</strong>ing<br />

electrophile.<br />
