Define Carnot Theorem and also give its proof.
Carnot theorem states that no heat engine working in a cycle between two constant temperature reservoirs can be more efficient than a reversible engine working between the same reservoirs. In other words it means that all the engines operating between a given constant temperature source and a given constant temperature sink, none, has a higher efficiency than a reversible engine.
Proof: 
Suppose there are two engines EA
 and EB operating between the given source at temperature T1 and the given sink at temperature T2.
Let EA be any irreversible heat engine and EB be any reversible heat engine. We have to prove that efficiency of heat engine EB is more than that of heat engine EA.
Suppose both the heat engines receive same quantity of heat Q from the source at temperature T1. Let W A and WB be the work output from the engines and their corresponding heat rejections be (Q – WA) and (Q – WB) respectively.
Assume that the efficiency of the irreversible engine be more than the reversible engine i.e. ηA > ηB. Hence,
WA
 /Q>WB /Q
I.e. WA
 > WB
Now let us couple both the engines and EB is reversed which will act as a heat pump. It receives (Q – WB) from sink and WAfrom irreversible engine EA and pumps heat Q to the source at temperature T1. The net result is that heat WA – WB is taken from sink and equal amount of work is produce. This violates second law of thermodynamics. Hence the assumption we made that irreversible engine having higher efficiency than the reversible engine is wrong.
Hence it is concluded that reversible engine working between same temperature limits is more efficient than irreversible engine thereby proving Carnot’s theorem.

Which ion is coloured Cu+ or Cu2+ ?
Cu in neutral state Z = 29
1S2 2S22P63S23P64S23d9 which rearranges as 1S2 2S22P63S23P64S13d10
Cu+  1S2 2S22P63S23P64S0 3d10

Cu2+ is 1S2 2S22P63S23P64S0 3d9

Cu 2+ is coloured since d-d transition takes place in Cu2+ which has 3d9 in its electronic  configuration  whereas Cu+ has completely filled d orbital where such a transition is not possible.

Explain Ni Cd battery functioing.

The nickel–cadmium battery (NiCd battery or NiCad battery) is a type of rechargeable battery using nickel oxide hydroxide and metallic cadmium as electrodes. A fully charged Ni-Cd cell contains:
·         nickel(III) oxide-hydroxide positive electrode plate
·         a cadmium negative electrode plate
·         separator, and an alkaline electrolyte (potassium hydroxide).

The chemical reactions at the cadmium electrode during discharge are:
    Cd + 2OH−−                                                    Cd(OH)2 + 2 e
            The reactions at the nickel oxide electrode are:
              2 NiO(OH) + 2 H2O + 2 e−                                      2 Ni((OH)2  + 2 OH
             The net reaction during discharge is
             2NiO(OH)  + Cd + 2 H2O                                2 Ni (OH)2 + Cd(OH)2

During recharge, the reactions go from right to left

Ni–Cd batteries contain between 6% (for industrial batteries) and 18% (for commercial batteries) cadmium, which is a toxic heavy metal and therefore requires special care during battery disposal. Cadmium, being a heavy metal, can cause substantial pollution when discarded in a landfill or incinerated

What  are Secondary Standard Substances? Give examples.
A secondary standard is a standard that is prepared in the laboratory for a specific analysis.
It is usually standardized against a primary standard.

  For example, making a primary standard solution of and then titrating that to find the accurate concentration of HCl will make the HCl solution secondary standard.

1.What are primary standard substances? Give examples.
A primary standard is a reagent that is extremely pure, stable, has no waters of hydration and has a high molecular weight .eg Sodium Carbonate, Sodium Oxalate, Potassium Dichromate
2.Mention the application of EDTA
To determine the hardness of water
To bind metal ions in chelation therapy
For treating mercury and lead poisoning
To remove excess iron from the body
1.Explain the biological role of chlorophyll
Chlorophyll acts as photosensitizer. Transfers energy to carbon di oxide and water molecule and helps in photosynthesis.
2.Define standard hydrogen electrode. What is its potential?
SHE is the universal reference for reporting relative half-cell potentials.The value of standard electrode potential is zero.
3. What is the application of Henderson Equation
