Explain the following reaction.

CO is heated with ZnO.

Equilibrium constant, K_c for the reaction 

\[\ce{N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) ⇌ 2NH3 (g)}\] at 500 K is 0.061.

At a particular time, the analysis shows that composition of the reaction mixture is 3.0 mol L^–1 N₂, 2.0 mol L^–1 H₂ and 0.5 mol L^–1 NH₃. Is the reaction at equilibrium? If not in which direction does the reaction tend to proceed to reach equilibrium?

When hydrochloric acid is added to cobalt nitrate solution at room temperature, the following reaction takes place and the reaction mixture becomes blue. On cooling the mixture it becomes pink. On the basis of this information mark the correct answer.

\[\ce{\underset{(pink)}{[Co(H2O)6]^{3+}} (aq) + 4Cl- (qa) ⇌ \underset{(blue)}{[CoCl4]^{2-}} (aq) + 6H2O (l)}\]

Why does hard water not form lather with soap?

Arrange the following alkyl halides in decreasing order of the rate of β– elimination reaction with alcoholic KOH.

An alkyl halide C₅H₁₁Br (A) reacts with ethanolic KOH to give an alkene ‘B’, which reacts with Br₂ to give a compound ‘C’, which on dehydrobromination gives an alkyne ‘D’. On treatment with sodium metal in liquid ammonia one mole of ‘D’ gives one mole of the sodium salt of ‘D’ and half a mole of hydrogen gas. Complete hydrogenation of ‘D’ yields a straight-chain alkane. Identify A, B, C and D. Give the reactions invovled.

If 10 volumes of dihydrogen gas reacts with five volumes of dioxygen gas, how many volumes of water vapour would be produced?
