SECTION - (B).
* ASSERTION REASON TYPE (16-18) :: In these questions, a statement of assertion followed by a
statement of reason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices ::
(a) If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
(b) If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason ·is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
(c) If Assertion is true but Reason is false. (d) If Reason is true but Assertion is false. (e) Both False.
16) Assertion :: Smaller the size of an atom greater is the electronegativity.
Reason :: Electronegativity refers to the tendency of atom so share electrons with other atom.

pair interactions.
Reason :: The space occupied by lone pair electrons is more as compared to bond pair electrons.
18) Assertion :: Decrease in free energy causes spontaneous reaction.
Reason :: Spontaneous reactions are invariable exothermic reactions.

SECTION - (F)
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
When an electron is added to a gaseous atom in its ground state to convert it into a negative ion, the enthalpy
change accompanying the process is called the electron gain enthalpy (Δeg H). It is a direct measure of the ease
with which an atom attracts an electron to form anion. X(g) + e- ——-> X-(g); ΔH = Δeg H
The most stable state of an atom is the ground state. If an isolated gaseous atom is in excited state,
comparatively lesser energy will be released on adding an electron. So, electron gain enthalpies of gaseous
atoms must be determined in their ground states. Therefore, the terms ground state and isolated gaseous atom
has been also included in the definition of electron gain enthalpy. Like ionisation enthalpy, electron gain
enthalpy is measure either in electron volts per atom or kJ per mole.
The following questions (1-iv) are multiple choice questions. Choose the most appropriate answer :
(B) The electron gain enthalpy of O or F is less than that of S or Cl. It is due to?
(C) (i) Why beryllium has higher ionisation enthalpy than boron ??
(ii) Factors affecting electron gain enthalpy is ?
CASE STUDY TYPE :: (35)
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions.
In chemical thermodynamics, the type of work involved is mostly pressure-volume work that is the work
done when a system (gas) expands or contracts against an external opposing pressure. Hence, work is also
defined as the transfer of energy that can be used to change the height of a mass in the surroundings.
Pressure-volume work: The work W, that is done due to the expansion or compression of a gas against
an external opposing pressure P is called pressure-volume work.
(B) A process in which the system does not exchange heat with the surroundings is known as ?
(C) Which of the following is correct match as far as the thermodynamic processes are involved ?
