During the electrolysis of copper II sulphate between platinum electrodes, if litmus solution is added to the anode compartment

the litmus turns red and oxygen is evolved

the litmus turns blue but no gas is evolved

the litmus turns blue and oxygen is evolved

the litmus turns blue and hydrogen is evolved

the litmus turns red and oxygen is evolved

A sample of hard water contains some calcium sulphate and calcium hydrogen carbonate. The total hardness may therefore be removed by

adding excess calcium hydroxide

adding a calculated amount of calcium hydroxide

Beryllium and Aluminium have similar properties because they

are positioned diagonally to each other

The choice of method for extracting a metal from its ores depends on the

position of the metal in the electrochemical series

position of the metal in the periodic table

In the upper atmosphere, the ultra-violet light breaks off a free chlorine atom from chlorofluorocarbon molecule. The effect of this is that the free chlorine atom will

be very reactive and will attack ozone

be non-reactive and will not attack ozone

not change the level of ozone in the atmosphere

increase the level of ozone in the atmosphere

(I). 3CuO(s) + 2NH3(g) -----> 3Cu(s) + 3H2O(l) + N2(g) (II). 2NH3(g) + 3Cl2(g) -----> 6HCl(g) + N2(g) (III). 4NH3(g) + 3O2(g) -----> 6H2O(l) + N2(g) The reactions represented by the equations above demonstrate the

oxidizing properties of ammonia

The conductivity of an acid solution depends on the

amount of ions present and their mobilities

Elements P, Q, R, S have 6, 11, 15, 17 electrons respectively, therefore,

Q will form an electrovalent bond with S

P will form an electrovalent bond with R

Q will form a covalent bond with S

R will form an electrovalent bond with S

Q will form an electrovalent bond with S

The situation obtained when a perfect gas expands into a vacuum is

ΔH is zero and T Δ S is positive

ΔH is positive and TΔ S is zero

ΔH is positive and T Δ S is negative

ΔH is negative and TΔ S is zero

ΔH is zero and T Δ S is positive

In the laboratory preparation of oxygen, the gas cannot be collected by displacement of air because

the density of oxygen is greater than that of air

the density of air is nearly the same as that of oxygen

Question 1 Report

Which of the following is used to power steam engines?

lubricating oil

coal

bitumen

diesel oil

Answer Details

Coal is the fuel that is typically used to power steam engines. Coal is burned in a furnace to heat water and produce steam, which is then used to power a steam engine. The steam engine converts the energy from the steam into mechanical energy, which can be used to power machines or generate electricity. Coal is a fossil fuel that has been used for centuries as a source of energy, and it played a significant role in the industrial revolution, powering steam engines that were used to drive machines in factories and transport goods and people by train. Today, steam engines are less common as other forms of energy have taken their place, but they remain an important part of our history and technological development.
