Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow., Are there nuclear reactions going on in our bodies?, There are nuclear reactions constantly occurring in our bodies, but there are very few of them, compared to the chemical reactions, and they do not affect our bodies much. All of the physical, processes that take place to keep a human body running are chemical processes. Nuclear, reactions can lead to chemical damage, which the body may notice and try to fix., The nuclear reaction occurring in our bodies is radioactive decay. This is the change of a less, stable nucleus to a more stable nucleus. Every atom has either a stable nucleus or an unstable, nucleus, depending on how big it is and on the ratio of protons to neutrons. The ratio of neutrons, to protons in a stable nucleus is thus around 1:1 for small nuclei (Z < 20). Nuclei with too many, neutrons, too few neutrons, or that are simply too big are unstable. They eventually transform to, a stable form through radioactive decay. Wherever there are atoms with unstable nuclei, (radioactive atoms), there are nuclear reactions occurring naturally. The interesting thing is that, there are small amounts of radioactive atoms everywhere: in your chair, in the ground, in the, food you eat, and yes, in your body., The most common natural radioactive isotopes in humans are carbon-14 and potassium-40., Chemically, these isotopes behave exactly like stable carbon and potassium. For this reason, the, body uses carbon-14 and potassium-40 just like it does normal carbon and potassium; building, them into the different parts of the cells, without knowing that they are radioactive. In time,

Page 6 :
carbon-14 atoms decay to stable nitrogen atoms and potassium-40 atoms decay to stable calcium, atoms. Chemicals in the body that relied on having a carbon-14 atom or potassium-40 atom in a, certain spot will suddenly have a nitrogen or calcium atom. Such a change damages the, chemical. Normally, such changes are so rare, that the body can repair the damage or filter away, the damaged chemicals., The natural occurrence of carbon-14 decay in the body is the core principle behind carbon, dating. As long as a person is alive and still eating, every carbon-14 atom that decays into a, nitrogen atom is replaced on average with a new carbon-14 atom. But once a person dies, he, stops replacing the decaying carbon-14 atoms. Slowly the carbon-14 atoms decay to nitrogen, without being replaced, so that there is less and less carbon-14 in a dead body. The rate at which, carbon-14 decays is constant and follows first order kinetics. It has a half - life of nearly 6000, years, so by measuring the relative amount of carbon-14 in a bone, archeologists can calculate, when the person died. All living organisms consume carbon, so carbon dating can be used to date, any living organism, and any object made from a living organism. Bones, wood, leather, and, even paper can be accurately dated, as long as they first existed within the last 60,000 years. This, is all because of the fact that nuclear reactions naturally occur in living organisms., (source: The textbook Chemistry: The Practical Science by Paul B. Kelter, Michael D. Mosher, and Andrew Scott states), a. Why is Carbon -14 radioactive while Carbon -12 not? (Atomic number of Carbon: 6), b. Researchers have uncovered the youngest known dinosaur bone, dating around 65 million, years ago. How was the age of this fossil estimated?, c. Which are the two most common radioactive decays happening in human body?, d. Suppose an organism has 20 g of Carbon -14 at its time of death. Approximately how much, Carbon -14 remains after 10,320 years? (Given antilog 0.517 = 3.289), OR, d. Approximately how old is a fossil with 12 g of Carbon -14 if it initially possessed 32 g of, Carbon -14? (Given log 2.667 = 0.4260), (1+1+1+2)

MARKING SCHEME (2021-22), TERM – II, CHEMISTRY THEORY (043), MM:35, 1., , 2., , Time: 2 Hours, , (a)Picric acid < salicylic acid < benzoic acid <phenol, , 1, , (b)Methyl tert – butyl ketone < acetone< Acetaldehyde, , 1, , (c)ethanol <ethanoic acid < benzoic acid (boiling point of carboxylic acids is higher, than alcohols due to extensive hydrogen bonding , boiling point increases with, increase in molar mass), , 1, , B is a strong electrolyte. The molar conductivity increases slowly with dilution as, there is no increase in number of ions on dilution as strong electrolytes are, completely dissociated., , ½+½, , 1, , 3., , 4, , (a) The alpha hydrogen atoms are acidic in nature due to presence of electron, withdrawing carbonyl group. These can be easily removed by a base and the, carbanion formed is resonance stabilized., (b) Tollen’s reagent is a weak oxidizing agent not capable of breaking the C-C bond, in ketones . Thus ketones cannot be oxidized using Tollen’s reagent itself gets, reduced to Ag., , 1, , a) In case of chlorobenzene, the C—Cl bond is quite difficult to break as it acquires, a partial double bond character due to conjugation., So Under the normal conditions, ammonolysis of chlorobenzene does not yield, aniline., b) Primary and secondary amines are engaged in intermolecular association due to, hydrogen bonding between nitrogen of one and hydrogen of another molecule. Due, to the presence of three hydrogen atoms, the intermolecular association is more in, , 1, , 1, , 1

primary amines than in secondary amines as there are two hydrogen atoms available, for hydrogen bond formation in it., c) During the acylation of aniline, stronger base pyridine is added. This done in order, to remove the HCl so formed during the reaction and to shift the equilibrium to the, right hand side., , 1, , OR, , 1, , 1, , 1, , 5, , (a) The colour of coordination compound depends upon the type of ligand and dd transition taking place ., H2O is weak field ligand , which causes small splitting , leading to the d-d, transition corresponding green colour , however due to the presence of ( en ), which ia strong field ligand , the splitting is increased . Due to the change in, t2g -eg splitting the colouration of the compound changes from green to blue., (b)Formula of the compound is [Co(H2NCH2CH2NH2 )3 ]2 (SO4 )3, The hybridisation of the compound is: d2sp3, , 1, , 1

OR, , 1, , a)As the fourth electron enters one of the eg orbitals giving the configuration t2g3 eg1, ,which indicates ∆o < P hence forms high spin complex., b), , 1, 2, , 6, , 7, , (a) Ti is having electronic configuration [Ar] 3d2 4s2. Ti (IV) is more stable as, Ti4+ acquires nearest noble gas configuration on loss of 4 e-., (b)In case of transition elements, ions of the same charge in a given series show, progressive decrease in radius with increasing atomic number., As the new electron enters a d orbital each time the nuclear charge increases by, unity. The shielding effect of a d electron is not that effective, hence the net, electrostatic attraction between the nuclear charge and the outermost electron, increases and the ionic radius decreases., (c)Iron and Chromium are having high enthalpy of atomization due to the presence, of unpaired electrons, which accounts for their hardness. However, Zinc has low, enthalpy of atomization as it has no unpaired electron. Hence zinc is comparatively, a soft metal., , 1, 1, , 1, , Compound A is an alkene, on ozonolysis it will give carbonyl compounds. As both, B and C have >C=O group,, B gives positive Fehling’s test so it is an aldehyde and it gives iodoform test so it is, so it has CH3C=O group. This means the aldehyde is acetaldehyde, C does not give Fehling’s test, so it is a ketone. It gives positive iodoform test so it is, a methyl ketone means it has CH3C=O group, Compound A (C5H10) on ozonlysis gives B (CH3CHO) + C (CH3COR), So “C” is CH3COCH3, CH3CH=C(CH3)2 (i)O3 (ii) Zn/H3O+, CH3CHO + CH3COCH3, , ½

There is greater, effective nuclear charge acting on outer valence electrons due to the weak shielding, by 4f electrons. Hence first ionisation energy of 5 d series of transition elements are, higher than that of 3d and 4d series., OR, a)Manganese is having lower melting point as compared to chromium , as it has, highest number of unpaired electrons , strong interatomic metal bonding , hence no, delocalisation of electrons ., b) There is much more frequent metal – metal bonding in compounds of the heavy, transition metals i.e 4d and 5d series , whixh accounts for lower melting point of 3d, series., c) Tungsten, 12, , 1, 1, , 1, , 1, , 1, 1, , (a) Ratio of neutrons to protons is 2.3: 1 which is not the stable ratio of 1:1, (b)Age of fossils can be estimated by C-14 decay.
