(A) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1.
(B) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is NOT a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1.
(C) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is False.
(D) STATEMENT-1 is False, STATEMENT-2 is True.
Sol.: STATEMENT-1 is false because the coupling of diazonium salt with -naphthol gives orange red coloured precipitate.
STATEMENT-2 is true.
Correct choice: (4)
55. STATEMENT-1: [Fe(H2O)5NO]SO4 is paramagnetic.
and
STATEMENT-2: The Fe in [Fe(H2O)5NO]SO4has three unpaired electrons.
(A) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1.
(B) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is NOT a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1.
(C) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is False. (D) STATEMENT-1 is False, STATEMENT-2 is True.
Sol.: [Fe(H2O)5NO]SO4 has ligand NO in +1 oxidation state and metal Fe in +1 state. Since Fe+ has 3 unpaired electrons, the complex is paramagnetic. STATEMENT-2 is true and is the correct explanation of STATEMENT-1.
Correct choice: (1)
56. STATEMENT-1: The geometrical isomers of the complex [M(NH3)4Cl2] are optically inactive. and STATEMENT-2: Both geometrical of the complex [M(NH3)4Cl2] possess axis of symmetry.
(A) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1.
(B) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is NOT a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1.
(C) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is False.
(D) STATEMENT-1 is False, STATEMENT-2 is True.
Sol.: The two geometrical isomers of [M(NH3)4Cl2]are optically inactive as both of them have plane of symmetry. The trans isomer has C2 and C4 axes of symmetry whereas the cis isomer has C2 axis of symmetry. A molecule may be optically active even if it has axis of symmetry. Both the statements are true but the STATEMENT-2 is not the correct explanation of STATEMENT-1.


Correct choice: (2)
*57. STATEMENT-1: There is a natural asymmetry between converting work to heat and converting heat to work. and STATEMENT-2: No process is possible in which the sole result is the absorption of heat from a reservoir and its complete conversion into work.
(A) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1.
(B) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is True; STATEMENT-2 is NOT a correct explanation for STATEMENT-1.
(C) STATEMENT-1 is True, STATEMENT-2 is False.
(D) STATEMENT-1 is False, STATEMENT-2 is True.
Sol.: Both the statements are true and STATEMENT-2 is the correct explanation of STATEMENT-1.
Correct choice: (1)

Paragraph for Question Nos. 61 to 63
In hexagonal systems of crystals, a frequently encountered arrangement of atoms is described as a hexagonal prism. Here, the top and bottom of the cell are regular hexagons and three atoms are sandwiched in between them. A space-filling model of this structure, called hexagonal close-packed (HCP), is constituted of a sphere on a flat surface surrounded in the same plane by six identical spheres as closely as possible. Three spheres are then placed over the first layer so that they touch each other and represent the second layer. Each one of these three spheres touches three spheres of the bottom layer. Finally, the second layer is covered with a third layer that is identical to the bottom layer in relative position. Assume radius of every sphere to be 'r'.
