                                IONIC EQUILIBRIUM

       Ionic equilibrium is the last physical chemistry chapter in class 
       11. Questions from this chapter are generally straightforward.
       However, there are several different types of questions that
       can be asked. These models will be covered in detail.

   
      



                 















               IMPORTANT EXAMPLES : 

             
 

               






    These were the important points in ionic equilibrium. With this,
     physical chemistry of class 11 comes to an end.

  PERIODIC PROPERTIES

    Periodic Properties is an important chapter in jee mains but is not
    part of jee advanced syllabus. However , it plays an important
    role in understanding inorganic chemistry .In this post , i will 
    be covering the important points in periodic properties. 

    
    NOTES:

    Ionisation Energy :

   1. It is the minimum amount of energy required to remove an 
       electron from the valence shell of an isolated gaseous atom.

   2. The removal of the 2nd electron is naturally more difficult than
       the first. Therefore for any element , IE 3 > IE 2 > IE 1 .

   3. Factors which effect ionisation energy :

       a)  Effective nuclear charge -  
            
            The magnitude of effective nuclear charge increases along
             the period.

            The magnitude of effective nuclear charge decreases 
            slightly down the group.

       b)  Size of the atom :

            Size increases down the group. As a result , the ionisation
            energy decreases. 

       c) Orbital involved :
            Ease of removal :  s < p < d< f

            eg.  Let us compare the IE of K and Cu. The first ionisation
                   energy of copper is more ( this is due to smaller size )

                  However , the second ionisation energy of copper is
                  smaller than potassium because the electron is removed
                  from the d orbital

       d) Nature of Configuration :

           Fully filled and Half filled orbitals have greater IE.

       
       NOTE : IE for transition metals increases along the period and
                     then becomes constant.

   
       ELECTRON AFFINITY:

       1. It is the amount of energy released when an electron is added
           to the outermost shell of a neutral gaseous atom.

       2. For second electron affinity and beyond we need to supply
           energy.

       3. Factors which influence electron affinity:
  
           a) Effective nuclear charge -  Generally , greater the 
                effective nuclear charge , greater the electron affinity.

           b) Size of the atom.

          c) Electronic configuration: Half filled and fully filled 
               orbitals have low electron affinity.


       ELECTRONEGATIVITY :

       


  
         Some important trends and exceptions :

         
  
  
         

     

        Apart from these notes , i advise all of you to go through the
        ncert textbook. Fiitjee students can use the package which
        i found very useful for this chapter.

CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM 

      Equilibrium is the next topic in physical chemistry and consists
      of both chemical and ionic equilibrium. Questions in this 
      chapter are generally easy in iit jee but most students find
      ionic equilibrium challenging. I hope to cover all models of 
      problems on both these chapters.

      Chemical Equilibrium:

      







       Le Chatelier 's principle :

       1. Increase in concentration of reactants moves the reaction
           forward. ( not for solids)
     
      2. Increase in pressure moves in direction of lesser no of moles
           of gas.
  
      3. Addition of inert gas at constant volume - No change.

      4. Addition of inert gas at constant pressure moves the reaction
          in direction of greater number of  moles.

      5. In the ice water equilibrium, melting point decreases with
          increase in pressure.
    
      6. With increase in temperature , equilibrium constant of an
          endothermic reaction increases. The opposite is true for
          an exothermic reaction.

      NOTE:  Solubility of NaOH increases with temperature
                    although dissolution is an exothermic process.

    ATOMIC STRUCTURE TEST -  ANSWERS

        

                    SOLUTIONS TO SELECTED PROBLEMS

  
            

   
                                    

       In question 18 , the 3s, 3p, 3d orbitals are similar in energy.
       Hence degeneracy is 9.
