Due to hectic and busy schedule, Mr Angad made his life full of tensions and anxiety. He started taking sleeping pills to overcome the depression without consulting the doctor. Mr Deepak, a close friend of Mr. Angad advised him to stop taking sleeping pills and suggested to change his life lifestyle by doing yoga, meditation and some physical exercise. Mr. Angad followed his friend’s advice and after few days he started feeling better.

After reading the above passage, answer the following

(i) What are the values (at least two) displayed by Mr. Deepak?

(ii) Why is it not advisable to take sleeping pills without consulting doctor?

(iii) What are tranquilisers? Give two examples.

What is ferromagnetism?

What type of magnetism is shown by a substance if magnetic moments of domains are arranged in same direction?

An element crystallizes in a f.c.c. lattice with a cell edge of 250 pm. Calculate the density if 300 g of this element contains 2 × 10²⁴ atoms. 

Calculate the freezing point of solution when 1.9 g of MgCl₂ (M = 95 g mol⁻¹) was dissolved in 50 g of water, assuming MgCl₂ undergoes complete ionization.

(K_f for water = 1.86 K kg mol⁻¹)

Out of 1 M glucose and 2 M glucose, which one has a higher boiling point and why?

What happens when the external pressure applied becomes more than the osmotic pressure of solution?

When 2.56 g of sulphur was dissolved in 100 g of CS₂, the freezing point lowered by 0.383 K. Calculate the formula of sulphur (S_x).

(K_f for CS₂ = 3.83 K kg mol⁻¹, Atomic mass of sulphur = 32 g mol⁻¹]
