Question 2 Report
SO2 + O2 → 2SO3
In the reaction above, the most suitable catalyst is?
Answer Details
The most suitable catalyst for the given reaction is vanadium(V)oxide (V2O5). Vanadium(V)oxide is a commonly used catalyst for the oxidation of sulfur dioxide (SO2) to sulfur trioxide (SO3). The reaction is an exothermic reaction, and it occurs at high temperatures (around 450-500°C) in the presence of a catalyst. V2O5 is an effective catalyst for this reaction because it has a high surface area and can provide active sites for the reaction to occur. The vanadium ions in the V2O5 catalyst undergo redox reactions with the sulfur dioxide and oxygen molecules, which promotes the formation of sulfur trioxide. Chromium(VI)oxide and iron(III)oxide are not suitable catalysts for this reaction because they are not effective at promoting the oxidation of sulfur dioxide to sulfur trioxide. Copper(I)oxide can be used as a catalyst for the reaction, but it is not as effective as vanadium(V)oxide.

Question 4 Report
Which of the following statement is TRUE of the complete hydrolysis of a glyceride by sodium hydroxide?
Answer Details
The statement that is TRUE of the complete hydrolysis of a glyceride by sodium hydroxide is: - 3 moles of NaOH are required for each mole of glyceride. During the hydrolysis of a glyceride (a triglyceride), the ester bonds between the fatty acid chains and glycerol are broken by the action of a strong base like sodium hydroxide. This results in the formation of glycerol and the corresponding salts of fatty acids, which are commonly known as "soaps." The reaction can be represented by the following equation: Triglyceride + 3 NaOH → 3 soap + glycerol As per the equation, 3 moles of NaOH are required to hydrolyze one mole of glyceride, and 3 moles of soap and one mole of glycerol are produced. The use of concentrated sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is not essential for the completion of the reaction, but it can be used as a catalyst to speed up the reaction.
Question 5 Report
Using the metal activity series, the metal that can liberate hydrogen gas from steam is?
Answer Details
The metal that can liberate hydrogen gas from steam is iron. The metal activity series is a list of metals in order of their reactivity, with the most reactive metals at the top and the least reactive metals at the bottom. When a metal is placed in a solution of steam (water vapor), the metal will react with the steam if it is more reactive than hydrogen. In this case, iron is more reactive than hydrogen, so it can displace hydrogen from the steam to form hydrogen gas. This reaction can be represented by the equation: Fe + H2O (steam) → FeO (iron oxide) + H2 (hydrogen gas) So, when steam is passed over iron, hydrogen gas is liberated and iron oxide is formed.
Question 6 Report
A certain liquid has a high boiling point. It is viscous, non-toxic, and miscible with water to be hygroscopic; this liquid most likely to be
Answer Details
The liquid is most likely to be option number 4: CH3OHCHOH2OH, which is also known as glycerol or glycerin. Glycerol has a high boiling point of 290°C, which is much higher than the boiling points of the other options. It is also a viscous liquid, which means it is thick and sticky. Glycerol is non-toxic, and it is often used in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Furthermore, glycerol is miscible with water, which means that it can be easily mixed with water to form a homogeneous solution. It is also hygroscopic, which means that it can absorb water from the air. These properties make glycerol a useful substance in many applications, such as as a moisturizer in skincare products or as a humectant in food processing.

Answer Details
The colored gas that is known to be poisonous and can readily damage the mucous lining of the lungs is chlorine. Chlorine is a highly reactive chemical element that is used in the production of many everyday products, such as paper, textiles, and plastics. It is also used as a disinfectant in swimming pools and water treatment plants. Inhaling chlorine gas can cause severe respiratory problems, including coughing, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. Prolonged exposure to chlorine can cause lung damage, and in extreme cases, it can be fatal. Chlorine gas is also highly irritating to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. It is important to handle chlorine with caution and to use appropriate protective gear, such as gloves and respiratory masks, when working with it. Proper ventilation and monitoring of chlorine levels are also essential to prevent exposure to this toxic gas.
Question 9 Report
Which of the following substances is not a homogeneous mixture?
Answer Details
The substance that is not a homogeneous mixture is flood water. Flood water is typically a mixture of various substances, such as sediment, dirt, debris, and organic matter, that have been carried along by the water. As such, flood water is usually a heterogeneous mixture, meaning that it does not have a uniform composition throughout. In contrast, filtered sea water, soft drinks, and writing ink are all examples of homogeneous mixtures, where the components are evenly distributed and the mixture has a uniform composition throughout.

2H2 + O2 → 2H2 O
From the equation above, calculate the volume of unreacted oxygen gas if a mixture of 50cm3 of hydroden and 75cm3 of oxygen are involved
Answer Details
The balanced chemical equation shows that 2 moles of hydrogen gas react with 1 mole of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of water vapor. Therefore, the stoichiometric ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2:1. In this problem, there are 50cm3 of hydrogen gas and 75cm3 of oxygen gas. Since the gases are at the same temperature and pressure, their volumes are directly proportional to the number of moles of gas present. Using the stoichiometric ratio, we can calculate that the amount of oxygen gas required to react completely with 50cm3 of hydrogen gas is (1/2) * 50cm3 = 25cm3. Since there are 75cm3 of oxygen gas present, there must be (75cm3 - 25cm3) = 50cm3 of unreacted oxygen gas remaining. Therefore, the volume of unreacted oxygen gas is 50cm3. Answer: 50cm3
Question 13 Report
An organic compound with fishy smell is likely to have a general formula?
Answer Details
The organic compound with a fishy smell is most likely to have the general formula RNH2, which represents a primary amine. Amines are organic compounds that contain a nitrogen atom bonded to one or more carbon atoms. Primary amines have one alkyl or aryl group and two hydrogen atoms bonded to the nitrogen atom. Some primary amines have a fishy smell, which is caused by the presence of volatile amines. These amines are small molecules that can easily evaporate and have a strong odor, similar to that of fish. Examples of compounds that have a fishy smell include trimethylamine, which is found in fish, and butylamine, which is used in the production of rubber and pharmaceuticals. In summary, the organic compound with a fishy smell is likely to have the general formula RNH2, which represents a primary amine.
Question 14 Report
Addition of sodium chloride to water to form a solution would lead to?
Answer Details
The addition of sodium chloride to water to form a solution would lead to a decrease in freezing point and an increase in boiling point. This effect is known as colligative properties, which depend on the concentration of solute particles in a solution. When sodium chloride dissolves in water, it breaks down into sodium ions and chloride ions. These ions occupy space between water molecules and interfere with the formation of ice crystals during freezing. As a result, the freezing point of the solution is lowered below that of pure water. This is why we use salt to de-ice roads and sidewalks during the winter season. Similarly, the presence of solute particles in a solution also raises the boiling point of the solution. The increased concentration of solute particles in the solution causes a decrease in the vapor pressure of the solvent (water), making it harder for the solvent molecules to escape into the gas phase. This means that more energy is required to bring the solution to its boiling point compared to pure water. In summary, the addition of sodium chloride to water forms a solution with lower freezing point and higher boiling point compared to pure water.

Zn + 2HCL → ZnCl2 + H2
What happens to zinc in the above reaction?
Answer Details
In the above reaction, zinc (Zn) reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl) to form zinc chloride (ZnCl2) and hydrogen gas (H2). The chemical equation for the reaction is: Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2 During the reaction, zinc atoms lose two electrons each and get oxidized to form positively charged zinc ions (Zn2+), as they react with the hydrogen ions (H+) from the hydrochloric acid to form zinc chloride. The hydrogen ions, on the other hand, gain an electron each and get reduced to form hydrogen gas molecules (H2). Therefore, in the given reaction, zinc is getting oxidized, as it loses electrons and forms a positively charged ion. Hence, the correct option is "oxidized."
Question 17 Report
30 cm3 of oxygen at 10 atmosphere pressure is placed in a 20 dm3 container. Calculate the new pressure if the temperature is kept constant.

Solve for 𝑃2P2:
𝑃2=30020000P2=20000300
𝑃2=0.015 atmospheresP2=0.015atmospheres
Therefore, the new pressure if the temperature is kept constant is:
Question 18 Report
The IUPAC name for CICH2-CH2-CH2-OH is
Answer Details
The IUPAC name for CICH2-CH2-CH2-OH is 3-chloropropan-1-ol. To name the compound using the IUPAC nomenclature system, we start by identifying the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms that contains the functional group (-OH). In this case, the longest chain contains three carbon atoms, so the root name is propane. Next, we identify the position of the substituent (-Cl) on the chain. The substituent is attached to the third carbon atom in the chain, so the name of the compound becomes 3-chloropropane. Finally, we add the suffix -ol to indicate that the compound contains an alcohol functional group (-OH), so the complete name of the compound is 3-chloropropan-1-ol. Therefore, the correct answer is 3-chloropropan-1-ol.
Question 19 Report
H2SO4 is used to remove rust on the surface of iron (picking) before electroplating. The type of reaction involved is
Answer Details
The type of reaction involved when using H2SO4 to remove rust on the surface of iron is a redox reaction. This is because the sulfuric acid oxidizes the iron in the rust, converting it into iron(II) sulfate, while the acid itself is reduced to sulfur dioxide. The overall reaction can be written as follows: Fe2O3(s) + 3H2SO4(aq) → Fe2(SO4)3(aq) + 3H2O(l) In this reaction, the iron in Fe2O3 is oxidized from a +3 to a +2 oxidation state, while the sulfur in H2SO4 is reduced from a +6 to a +4 oxidation state. This transfer of electrons between the reactants is what defines a redox reaction.
Question 20 Report
Answer Details
Carbon dioxide (CO2) has a linear molecular geometry, with two oxygen atoms bonded to the central carbon atom. Each bond between carbon and oxygen is a double bond, consisting of two pairs of electrons shared between the atoms. Therefore, there are two bonding pairs in each of the carbon-oxygen double bonds, giving a total of four bonding pairs in CO2. The answer is 4.
Question 21 Report
The sulphide that is commonly used in coating electric fluorescent tubes is?
Answer Details
The sulphide commonly used in coating electric fluorescent tubes is Zinc Sulphide. Zinc Sulphide is a type of material that glows when it is exposed to ultraviolet light. When ultraviolet light is generated inside a fluorescent tube, it excites the Zinc Sulphide particles, causing them to emit visible light. This visible light is what we see as the bright light coming from the tube. So, Zinc Sulphide acts as a phosphor and helps in producing the bright light in fluorescent tubes.

Which of the following will precipitate in dil. HCl
Answer Details
Among the given options, only CuS will precipitate in dilute HCl. CuS is insoluble in dilute HCl, and hence it will precipitate when added to dilute HCl. However, the other options will dissolve in dilute HCl, and hence they will not precipitate. ZnS will dissolve in dilute HCl to form ZnCl2 and H2S. Na2S will react with dilute HCl to produce H2S and NaCl. FeS will dissolve in dilute HCl to form FeCl2 and H2S. Therefore, the correct answer is (4) CuS.
Question 26 Report
The reactions below represent neutralization reaction, in which of them is the value of ΔH highest?
Answer Details
The reaction with the highest ΔH (change in enthalpy) would be the reaction between HCL and NaOH, which forms NaCL and H2O. This is because the formation of water releases energy in the form of heat, which is reflected in the positive ΔH value for this reaction. When an acid and a base react, they neutralize each other and form a salt and water, with the release of heat being a sign of an exothermic reaction.

Question 28 Report
An organic compound which liberate carbon(iv)oxide from trioxocarbonate(iv) solution is likely to be?
Answer Details
The organic compound that liberates carbon(iv)oxide from trioxocarbonate(iv) solution is CH3COOH (acetic acid). When acetic acid is added to a solution of trioxocarbonate(iv) (carbonate) it reacts to form carbon(iv)oxide gas, water and a salt. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: 2CH3COOH + Na2CO3 → CO2 + 2H2O + 2NaCH3COO The carbon(iv)oxide gas is released as bubbles, causing the solution to fizz. Therefore, CH3COOH is the organic compound that liberates carbon(iv)oxide from trioxocarbonate(iv) solution.
Question 29 Report
An organic compound decolourized acidified KMnO4 solution but failed to react with ammonical AgNO3 solution. The organic compound is likely?
Answer Details
The given information suggests that the organic compound is an unsaturated compound (because it decolorized the acidified KMnO4 solution), but it does not contain a functional group that reacts with ammonical AgNO3 solution. Therefore, the likely organic compound is an alkene or an alkyne. Carboxylic acids can also react with acidified KMnO4 solution, but they would also react with ammonical AgNO3 solution to form a silver carboxylate salt. Alkanes are saturated compounds and do not react with either reagent, so they would not decolorize the acidified KMnO4 solution. Therefore, based on the given information, the most likely option is either an alkene or an alkyne.

When air is passed through alkaline pyrogallol, the oxygen in the air is absorbed by the pyrogallol, resulting in an increase in the weight of the pyrogallol. The other gases in air, namely nitrogen, neon, and argon, do not react with pyrogallol under these conditions. Therefore, the answer is oxygen.
Question 32 Report
Answer Details
The addition of charcoal to the filter bed of sand during water treatment for township supply is to remove odors and improve the taste of the water. Charcoal is a porous material that can adsorb impurities and chemicals from the water, such as dissolved organic matter that can contribute to unpleasant tastes and odors. This process helps to produce a better-quality drinking water that is free from unpleasant tastes and odors. It should be noted that while the addition of charcoal can help remove impurities, it does not kill germs or prevent tooth decay or goiter. Other water treatment methods, such as disinfection with chlorine or ultraviolet light, are required to kill harmful microorganisms and ensure the safety of the drinking water.

6g of Mg was to 100cm3 of 1 moldm3 H2 SO4 . What mass of Mg remained undissolved? (Mg = 24)
Answer Details
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between magnesium (Mg) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is: Mg + H2SO4 -> MgSO4 + H2 According to the equation, one mole of Mg reacts with one mole of H2SO4 to produce one mole of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) and one mole of hydrogen gas (H2). Since the concentration of the sulfuric acid is 1 moldm3, this means that there is one mole of H2SO4 in every 1 liter (1000 cm3) of solution. To determine the amount of Mg that reacts with the H2SO4, we need to use stoichiometry. One mole of Mg reacts with one mole of H2SO4, so the amount of Mg that reacts with 1 moldm3 of H2SO4 is given by: 6g / 24g/mol = 0.25 mol Since the reaction is 1:1, this means that 0.25 mol of H2SO4 is consumed in the reaction. The volume of the solution is 100cm3 (0.1 dm3), so the amount of H2SO4 in the solution is: 1 mol/dm3 x 0.1 dm3 = 0.1 mol The amount of H2SO4 that remains after the reaction is: 0.1 mol - 0.25 mol = -0.15 mol This negative value means that all of the H2SO4 was consumed in the reaction, and there is excess Mg left over. The mass of Mg that remains undissolved is given by: 0.15 mol x 24g/mol = 3.6g Therefore, the correct answer is 3.6g.

Question 38 Report
The following non-metal form acidic oxides with oxygen except?
Answer Details
An acidic oxide is an oxide that reacts with water to form an acidic solution. Non-metals have a greater tendency to form acidic oxides than metals. Therefore, among the given options, the non-metal that does not form an acidic oxide with oxygen would be the one that does not react with water to form an acidic solution. Out of the given options, chlorine is the non-metal that does not form acidic oxides with oxygen. Chlorine reacts with oxygen to form a number of oxides such as chlorine monoxide (Cl2O), chlorine dioxide (ClO2), and chlorine trioxide (ClO3), but none of these oxides react with water to form an acidic solution. Instead, they react with water to form oxyacids or oxoacids such as hypochlorous acid (HClO), chlorous acid (HClO2), and chloric acid (HClO3), which are stronger acids than the oxides. Therefore, the correct answer is chlorine.

Question 40 Report
A certain volume of gas at 298k is heated such that its volume and pressure are now four times the original values. What is the new temperature?
Answer Details
We can use the ideal gas law to solve this problem, which states that PV = nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the gas constant, and T is temperature in kelvin. If the volume and pressure are both increased by a factor of 4, then the new volume V' and new pressure P' are given by: V' = 4V P' = 4P Substituting these values into the ideal gas law, we get: (4P)(4V) = nR(T') Simplifying this equation, we get: 16PV = nRT' Dividing both sides by PV, we get: 16 = nRT' / PV Since n, R, and P are constant, we can simplify this to: 16 = T' / T Solving for T', we get: T' = 16T Therefore, the new temperature is 16 times the original temperature. Substituting T = 298 K, we get: T' = 16 x 298 K = 4768 K So the correct answer is 4768.0K.
