Inorganic Chemistry Interview Questions and Answers
Inorganic Chemistry Interview Questions and Answers

1 :: Explain A catalyst?

(a)always slows down the reaction
(b)always starts a rection that would not have ocurred at
all otherwise
(c)causes changes in the rate of the reaction
(d)changes the quantities of the products formed

2 :: Process is feo,fe2o3 and fe3o4?

Fe2O3

3 :: Why we use sulphuric acid in the experiment of measure absorpance of K2Cr2O7 and KMnO4?

In case of Dichromate we use it to maintain the pH, otherwise
there is a mixture of Chromate and Dichromate. They donot
absorb at the same wavelength. So we cannot use Lambert-Beer's
Law.
For permanganate use of sulphuric acid is not for this reason
but to maintain the pH as in neutral or alkaline solution
permanganate get hydrolyzed to for manganese dioxide.

5 :: What is the inorganic chemistry?

Inorganic is a branch of chemistry that deals with the
properties and behavior of inorganic compounds

6 :: Why lead acetate s used in the Limit test of Arsenic?
What role Lead Acetate plays?

During limit test for As, Zn & conc HCl is used. if H2S formed the reaction with Lead Acetate gives lead sulphide.If it is not used then it reacts with mercuric bromide gives yellow stain.

7 :: What is the basics of electronic spectroscopy?

The electronic transition between ground state and the
excited state in terms of energy

8 :: Out of (CH3)3C- and (CH3)2CH- carboanion, which is more stable and why?

(CH3)2CH- because neighbouring protons stabilise a negative charge better than neighbouring carbon. (The neighbouring C-H sigma bonds have an overlap of electron density with the lone pair in the p-orbital, which is destabilising.)

9 :: Give the IUPAC name.
i) [Co(NH3)5SO4]Cl
ii) [Co(NH3)5Cl] SO4
iii) [CoCl.CN.NO2.(NH3)3]

1). PENTAAMINE SULPHATOCOBALT III CHLORIDE
2). PENTAAMMINE CHLOROCOBALTIII SULPHATE
3). TRIAMMINECHLORONITROCOBALTIII

10 :: Who is the father of chemistry?

LAVOSIER
Because,he defined law of chemical reaction

11 :: Write short note on steroids, terpenes, prostagladins and phospholipids?

these are the secondory metabotites and plays imp. role in
plant defence system

12 :: Why sulphuric acid has more viscosity than water?

tensile strength of sulphuric acid is higher than water

13 :: What is hybridyzation? How can we find that which type hybridyzation in perticular compound like in CH4(hy is sp3)?

It is intermixing of an orbital.
eg .CH4
(6*0)+(4*1)=0+4=4
according to formula its hybridisation is four
