Question 1 Report
A sample of gas with an initial volume of 2.5 dm3 is heated and then allowed to expand to 7.5 dm3 at constant at pressure. What is the ratio of the final temperature of the initial absolute temperature?
Answer Details
According to Charles's Law, the ratio of the initial and final temperatures is equal to the ratio of the initial and final volumes at constant pressure. The ratio of the final volume to the initial volume is: Vf / Vi = 7.5 dm3 / 2.5 dm3 = 3 Therefore, the ratio of the final temperature to the initial temperature is also 3: Tf / Ti = Vf / Vi = 3 So the answer is 3:1.
Question 2 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.
Question 3 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 5 Report
In the extraction of iron, hot air is introduced into the blast furnace through?
Answer Details
In the extraction of iron, hot air is introduced into the blast furnace through tuyeres. Tuyeres are nozzles that are located at the bottom of the blast furnace, and they are used to blow hot air into the furnace. The hot air helps to burn the coke (a fuel made from coal) which provides the heat needed to melt the iron ore. The air also helps to remove the waste gases that are produced during the reaction, allowing the iron to be extracted more efficiently.

Question 7 Report
An organic functional group which can likely decolorize ammoniacal silver nitrate is?
Answer Details
The organic functional group that can likely decolorize ammoniacal silver nitrate is an alkyne. When ammoniacal silver nitrate is added to a solution containing an alkyne functional group, a white or yellowish precipitate of silver acetylide is formed. Silver acetylide is a highly explosive compound and is sparingly soluble in water, causing it to appear as a white or yellowish solid precipitate. This reaction is used as a test to detect the presence of an alkyne functional group in an organic compound. In contrast, alkanes, alkenes, and alkanols do not react with ammoniacal silver nitrate, so they cannot decolorize it. Therefore, an organic functional group that can likely decolorize ammoniacal silver nitrate is an alkyne.

Question 10 Report
The oxidation number of oxygen in BaO2 is
Answer Details
To determine the oxidation number of oxygen in BaO2, we can use the fact that the overall charge of a compound must be zero. Barium (Ba) is a Group 2 element and has an oxidation state of +2. The compound BaO2 has no net charge, so the sum of the oxidation states of all the atoms must be zero. Let x be the oxidation state of oxygen in BaO2. Therefore, we have: (+2) + 2(x) = 0 Solving for x, we get: x = -1 Therefore, the oxidation number of oxygen in BaO2 is -1.

Question 14 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 16 Report
The pollutant usually presents in a city which generates its electricity from coal?
Answer Details
The pollutant that is usually present in a city that generates its electricity from coal is sulfur dioxide (SO2), also known as sulfur(iv)oxide. When coal is burned to generate electricity, sulfur compounds in the coal are released into the air as SO2. This gas can react with other pollutants and atmospheric conditions to form smog, which can be harmful to human health and the environment. Therefore, it is important to reduce the use of coal in electricity generation and promote cleaner and more sustainable energy sources to reduce the levels of SO2 and other harmful pollutants in the air.

Answer Details
Hard water is water that contains high amounts of dissolved minerals, specifically calcium and magnesium ions. These minerals come from the rocks and soil that the water flows through and can accumulate in the water as it travels to your home. When you use hard water, it can leave mineral deposits on your pipes, fixtures, and appliances, which can reduce their efficiency and lifespan. It can also make soap less effective and leave your skin feeling dry and itchy. Therefore, it is important to treat hard water if it is a problem in your area.
Question 19 Report

Answer Details
Mixing aqueous solutions of barium hydroxide and sodium tetraoxocarbonate (IV) would result in a chemical reaction that produces a white precipitate of barium tetraoxocarbonate (IV). The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: Ba(OH)2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq) → BaCO3(s) + 2NaOH(aq) In the above equation, the barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2) reacts with sodium tetraoxocarbonate (IV) (Na2CO3) to form barium tetraoxocarbonate (IV) (BaCO3), which is a white precipitate, and sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Therefore, the correct option is 4) Barium tetraoxocarbonate.
Question 20 Report
Which of the following compound is NOT the correct formed compound when the parent metal is heated in air?
Answer Details
The compound that is NOT correctly formed when the parent metal is heated in air is: tri-iron tetraoxide (Fe2O). This is because the correct compound formed from the heating of iron in air is iron (III) oxide or Fe2O3. The formula for tri-iron tetraoxide is incorrect, as it implies that there are only three iron atoms in the compound when there should be four.
Question 21 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 22 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 24 Report
Wrought iron is obtained by heating cast iron in a furnace with?
Answer Details
Wrought iron is a type of iron that is very malleable and ductile, meaning it can be easily shaped and formed into various objects. It is obtained by heating cast iron in a furnace with haematite, also known as iron(III) oxide. When cast iron is heated with haematite in a furnace, a chemical reaction takes place where the haematite reacts with the carbon in the cast iron to produce carbon dioxide gas. This reaction also produces molten iron, which is then further heated to remove any impurities like sulfur and phosphorus. This molten iron is then poured into molds to form ingots of wrought iron. Therefore, haematite is essential in the process of obtaining wrought iron from cast iron.

Question 26 Report
On the basis of the electrochemical series, which of these ions will show the greater tendency to be discharged at the cathode in an electrolytic cell
Answer Details
The electrochemical series is a list of metals and ions arranged in order of their decreasing tendency to lose or gain electrons, and thus, their ability to act as reducing or oxidizing agents. The higher the position of a metal or ion in the electrochemical series, the greater its tendency to lose electrons and undergo oxidation, while the lower its position, the greater its tendency to gain electrons and undergo reduction. In an electrolytic cell, the cathode is the electrode where reduction occurs, meaning that cations (positively charged ions) are attracted and gain electrons to form neutral atoms or molecules. Based on the electrochemical series, the ion with the higher position in the series will have a greater tendency to gain electrons and be discharged at the cathode, while the ion with the lower position will have a lower tendency and may not be discharged at all. Among the given options, the electrochemical series order is: Cu2+ > Sn2+ > Fe2+ > Zn2+ Therefore, Cu2+ has the highest tendency to be discharged at the cathode and undergo reduction, while Zn2+ has the lowest tendency. So, in an electrolytic cell, Cu2+ will be discharged at the cathode, while Zn2+ may not be discharged at all, depending on the conditions of the cell.
Question 28 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.
Question 29 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.

Question 31 Report
Which of the following will act as both oxidizing agents and reducing agents?
Answer Details
The oxidizing and reducing properties of a substance depend on its ability to gain or lose electrons. A substance that can gain electrons acts as an oxidizing agent, while a substance that can lose electrons acts as a reducing agent. Among the given options, both Cl2 (chlorine gas) and SO2 (sulfur dioxide) can act as both oxidizing and reducing agents depending on the reaction conditions. - Cl2 can act as an oxidizing agent when it gains electrons to form Cl- ions, and it can act as a reducing agent when it loses electrons to form Cl+ ions. For example, in the reaction Cl2 + 2KBr → 2KCl + Br2, chlorine gas is acting as an oxidizing agent since it is gaining electrons from bromide ions to form bromine gas. However, in the reaction 2Cl- + Cl2 → 2Cl2-, chlorine gas is acting as a reducing agent since it is losing electrons to form chloride ions. - SO2 can act as an oxidizing agent when it gains electrons to form sulfite ions (SO32-), and it can act as a reducing agent when it loses electrons to form sulfur trioxide (SO3). For example, in the reaction SO2 + 2H2S → 3S + 2H2O, sulfur dioxide is acting as a reducing agent since it is losing electrons to form elemental sulfur. However, in the reaction 2SO32- + O2 → 2SO42-, sulfur dioxide is acting as an oxidizing agent since it is gaining electrons to form sulfate ions. H2S (hydrogen sulfide) and NH3 (ammonia) are not likely to act as both oxidizing and reducing agents under normal conditions. H2S tends to act as a reducing agent by donating electrons to oxidizing agents, while NH3 tends to act as a reducing agent by donating electrons to oxidizing agents or as a base by accepting protons.
Question 32 Report
When heat is absorbed during a chemical reaction, the reaction is said to be
Answer Details
When heat is absorbed during a chemical reaction, the reaction is said to be endothermic. Endothermic reactions are characterized by the absorption of heat energy from the surroundings. In other words, the reactants absorb energy from the environment, usually in the form of heat, to form the products. As a result, the temperature of the surroundings decreases, and the reaction feels cold to the touch. Endothermic reactions can be found in many natural processes, such as photosynthesis, melting of ice, and the evaporation of liquids. These processes require energy to occur, and they absorb heat from the surroundings to power the reaction.
Question 33 Report
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 34 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 36 Report
An organic compound with fishy smell is likely to have a general formula?
Answer Details

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 37 Report
Which of the following increases as boiling water changes to steam?
Answer Details
The degree of disorder of the system increases as boiling water changes to steam. When water is boiled and changes to steam, the water molecules gain energy and become more disordered, which means that the molecules move more rapidly and the entropy of the system increases. The temperature of the system also increases during this process, but the degree of disorder is the factor that specifically increases as the water changes to steam. The number of molecules and activation energy remain constant during this phase transition.

In the preparation of salts, the method employed will depend on the?
Answer Details
The method employed in the preparation of salts will depend on the composition of the salt. Different salts have different chemical properties, and the method used to prepare them will depend on these properties. For example, some salts can be easily dissolved in water, while others are not very soluble and may require the use of a different solvent or special conditions to dissolve. The dissociating ability, stability to heat, and precipitating ability of the salt may also play a role in determining the preparation method, but the most important factor is the composition of the salt.
