Q29 The d-block elements are
those elements in which the last electron enters the d-subshell of the
penultimate shell. The general electronic configuration of these elements is (n
– 1) d1–10 ns 1–2, where n is outermost shell. The d-block consisting of groups
3–12 occupies the large middle section of the periodic table. The elements of
d-block are also known as transition elements as they possess properties that
are transitional between the s and p block elements. A transition element is
defined as an element which has incompletely filled d-orbitals in its ground
state or any one of its oxidation states. There are four series of transition
elements spread between group 3 and 12. First transition series or 3d-series:
Scandium (21Sc) to Zinc (30Zn), Second transition series or 4d-series: Yttrium
(39Y) to Cadmium (48Cd), Third transition series or 5d-series: Lanthanum (57La)
and Hafnium (72Hf) to Mercury (80Hg) (Omitting 58Ce to 71Lu), Fourth transition
series or 6d-series: Begins with Actinium (89Ac) is still incomplete.

Q30 A solution which obeys
Raoult’s law strictly is called an ideal solution, while a solution which shows
deviations from Raoult’s law is called a non-ideal solution or real solution.
Suppose the molecules of the solvent and solute are represented by A and B
respectively, and let gAB, gAA and gBB are the attractive forces between A—B,
A—A and B—B respectively. An ideal solution of the components A and B is
defined as the solution in which the intermolecular interactions between the
components A—B are of the same magnitude as the intermolecular interactions
found in the pure components A—A and B—B. Similarly,a non- ideal solution of
the components A and B is defined as the solution in which the intermolecular
interactions between the components A—B are of the different magnitude as the
intermolecular interactions found in the pure components A—A and B—B.

solution?
