Ripening of fruits is hastened by using
Antwoorddetails
The ripening of fruits is hastened by using ethene. Ethene is a plant hormone that regulates the process of ripening in fruits. It is produced naturally by plants, including fruits, and can also be produced synthetically. When ethene gas is introduced to a fruit, it triggers a series of biochemical reactions that lead to the ripening of the fruit. The gas promotes the breakdown of chlorophyll, which gives fruits their green color, and the conversion of starches into sugars. This process makes the fruit softer and sweeter, and also stimulates the production of more ethene gas, which in turn hastens the ripening of the fruit.

Propane carbon(IV)oxide diffuse at the same rate because [H = 1.00, C = 12.0, O = 16.0]
Antwoorddetails
The diffusion rate of a gas is directly proportional to its molecular mass. Propane (C3H8) has a higher molecular mass than carbon dioxide (CO2). However, since the question asks about carbon(IV)oxide (CO2), which has a molecular mass of 44, the answer is that propane and carbon(IV)oxide diffuse at the same rate because they have the same relative molecular mass. Therefore, "They have the same relative molecular mass" is the correct answer.

The minimum amount of energy required for effective collisions between reacting particles is known as
Antwoorddetails
Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required for effective collisions between reacting particles. In a chemical reaction, reactant molecules must collide with a certain minimum amount of kinetic energy in order for the reaction to occur. The reactant molecules must also collide with the correct orientation in order for the reaction to take place. The minimum amount of energy required for these effective collisions is known as the activation energy. Activation energy is a barrier that must be overcome for a reaction to occur. This barrier can be overcome by increasing the temperature of the reaction, since this increases the kinetic energy of the reactant molecules, making them more likely to collide with sufficient energy to react. Alternatively, a catalyst can be used to lower the activation energy barrier and increase the rate of the reaction. In summary, the correct option in the question is activation energy, which is the minimum amount of energy required for effective collisions between reacting particles.

The spreading of the scent of a flower in a garden is an example of_____?
Antwoorddetails
The spreading of the scent of a flower in a garden is an example of diffusion. Diffusion is the movement of particles (molecules, ions or atoms) from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. In this case, the scent molecules of the flower move from the area of high concentration (the flower) to an area of lower concentration (the surrounding air) until they are evenly distributed throughout the space. This spreading of the scent is an example of the random movement of particles due to diffusion.

Chlorine water is used as a bleaching agent because it is
Antwoorddetails
Chlorine water is used as a bleaching agent because it is an oxidizing agent. Bleaching is a chemical process that involves the breaking down of chromophores, which are responsible for the coloration of substances. Chlorine water is able to oxidize these chromophores and break them down, which results in the removal of the color from the substance being bleached. The oxidizing power of chlorine water comes from the fact that chlorine is a highly electronegative element, which means that it has a strong tendency to attract electrons. This makes it an effective oxidizing agent, as it is able to strip electrons from other substances and cause them to undergo oxidation.

Antwoorddetails
The quality of electricity required to discharge 1 mole of univalent ion is 96500C. This quantity of electricity is known as Faraday's constant, which is equivalent to the charge on one mole of electrons (6.022 x 10^23 electrons). When one mole of an univalent ion is discharged, it means that one mole of electrons is transferred, and therefore, the charge required for this transfer is equal to the charge on one mole of electrons, which is 96500C.
Vraag 12 Verslag
Which of the following apparatus can be used to measure a specific volume of a liquid accurately?
Antwoorddetails
Out of the given options, the apparatus that can be used to measure a specific volume of a liquid accurately is a pipette. A pipette is a glass or plastic tube that is used to transfer a measured volume of liquid from one container to another. It is designed to dispense a very precise volume of liquid, typically ranging from 1 to 100 milliliters, depending on the type of pipette. Pipettes are often used in chemistry and biology experiments where precise measurements of liquid volumes are critical to the success of the experiment. Beakers and conical flasks can hold liquids but are not designed for accurate measurement of volumes. A measuring cylinder can measure volumes, but it may not be as precise as a pipette.

The general gas equation \(\frac{PV}{T}\) = K is a combination of
Antwoorddetails
The general gas equation \(\frac{PV}{T}\) = K is a combination of Boyle's law and Charles' law. Boyle's law states that at constant temperature, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. Charles' law states that at constant pressure, the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature. The general gas equation combines these two laws and adds in the ideal gas law constant, K, to relate the pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas. It is important to note that the ideal gas law assumes that the gas behaves ideally, which means that its particles are infinitely small and there are no attractive or repulsive forces between them.

On evaporation to dryness, 3503 of saturated solution of salt Z gave 55.5g of salt. What is the solubility of the salt? [Z = 101]
Antwoorddetails
The solubility of a salt is defined as the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent at a specified temperature and pressure. Given that 3503 of saturated solution of salt Z gave 55.5g of salt. We can find the solubility of the salt using the formula: Solubility = Mass of solute / Volume of solution First, we need to convert the given mass of salt to moles using its molar mass: Molar mass of Z = 101g/mol Number of moles of Z = 55.5g / 101g/mol = 0.5495 mol Now, we can calculate the volume of the solution using the given volume of 3503: Volume of solution = 3503 = 0.35 dm3 Substituting the values into the formula, we get: Solubility = 0.5495 mol / 0.35 dm3 = 1.57 moldm-3 Therefore, the solubility of salt Z is 1.57 moldm-3.

How many moles of oxygen would contain 1.204 x 1024 molecules?
[Avogadro's constant (NA) = 6.02 x 1023]
Antwoorddetails
To determine the number of moles of oxygen, we need to use Avogadro's constant, which is the number of particles in one mole of a substance. Given that the number of oxygen molecules is 1.204 x 10^24, we can use this information to calculate the number of moles of oxygen using the following formula: Number of moles = Number of particles / Avogadro's constant Plugging in the values, we get: Number of moles = 1.204 x 10^24 / 6.02 x 10^23 Number of moles = 2 Therefore, the answer is 2. Hence, is the correct answer.

Which of the following sources of energy contributes to green-house effect?
Antwoorddetails
Natural gas contributes to the greenhouse effect. When natural gas is burned, it produces carbon dioxide (CO2), which is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. The combustion of natural gas also releases small amounts of other greenhouse gases, such as methane. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that is about 25 times more effective at trapping heat than carbon dioxide over a 100-year time span. Therefore, the use of natural gas as a source of energy contributes to the greenhouse effect.

Antwoorddetails
The energy which accompanies the addition of an electron to an isolated gaseous atom is called electron affinity. When an atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion. The energy released or absorbed when this process occurs is the electron affinity. If energy is released when an electron is added to the atom, then the electron affinity is negative, and if energy is absorbed, then the electron affinity is positive. Therefore, the correct option is "electron affinity."

Antwoorddetails
An unsaturated solution differs from a saturated solution at a given temperature because it can still dissolve more solute at that temperature, while a saturated solution has already dissolved the maximum amount of solute that it can hold at that temperature. Therefore, an unsaturated solution has a lower concentration of solute compared to a saturated solution. The ability of a solution to dissolve more solute depends on the nature of the solute, the solvent, and the temperature of the solution.

Vraag 24 Verslag
Which of the following statements about solids is correct?
Antwoorddetails
The correct statement about solids is that solid particles cannot be easily compressed. This is because the particles in a solid are tightly packed and have fixed positions due to strong intermolecular forces holding them together. Any attempt to compress a solid would require a significant amount of force to overcome these forces and move the particles closer together. In contrast, liquids and gases can be compressed more easily because their particles are not as closely packed and have more room to move around. Therefore, option D is the correct statement.

Antwoorddetails
When NH4Cl(s) is dissolved in water, the container feels cold to touch, indicating that the process is endothermic. Endothermic processes absorb energy from the surroundings to proceed. In this case, the dissolution of NH4Cl in water requires energy to break the ionic bonds between the NH4+ and Cl- ions in the solid and to separate the water molecules from each other. This energy is absorbed from the surroundings, causing the container to feel cold to the touch. The formation of a saturated solution or the solubility of NH4Cl in water is not indicated by the cooling effect.
Vraag 26 Verslag

Antwoorddetails
An aqueous solution of (NH4)2SO4 is acidic. When ammonium sulfate ((NH4)2SO4) is dissolved in water, it dissociates into its ions: 2 NH4+ and SO4 2-. The ammonium ion (NH4+) is a weak acid and tends to donate a hydrogen ion (H+) to the water molecules, resulting in the formation of hydronium ions (H3O+). This increases the concentration of H+ ions in the solution and makes it acidic. The chemical equation for the dissociation of ammonium sulfate in water is as follows: (NH4)2SO4 + H2O → 2 NH4+ + SO4 2- + H2O Therefore, among the options provided, the correct answer is acidic.

Vraag 32 Verslag
An element X froms the following oxides X2O, XO and XO2. This phenomenon illustrates the law of________?
Antwoorddetails
The phenomenon illustrated in this question is the law of multiple proportion. According to this law, when two elements combine to form more than one compound, the different masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the other element are in the ratio of small whole numbers. In the given example, element X combines with oxygen to form three different oxides, and the ratios of the masses of X to oxygen in these oxides are in the ratio of small whole numbers (2:1, 1:1, and 1:2). This is consistent with the law of multiple proportion, which states that when two elements (in this case, X and oxygen) form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of one element (X) that combine with a fixed mass of the other element (oxygen) are in the ratio of small whole numbers.
Vraag 33 Verslag
The oxidation number of sulphur is +4 in
Antwoorddetails
The oxidation number of an atom is a measure of the number of electrons it has gained or lost, assuming that the electrons in a chemical bond are assigned to the more electronegative atom. In the compound H2SO3, there are two hydrogen atoms, each with an oxidation number of +1, and one oxygen atom, which has an oxidation number of -2. The sum of the oxidation numbers in H2SO3 is zero, since the compound is neutral. Therefore, we can calculate the oxidation number of sulfur as follows: 2(+1) + x + 3(-2) = 0 Solving for x, we get: x = +4 Therefore, the oxidation number of sulfur in H2SO3 is +4. In summary, the correct option in the question is H2SO3, where the oxidation number of sulfur is +4.

Vraag 37 Verslag
The mass of potassium hydroxide required to make 300.ocm3 of 0.4 moldm-3 solution is {KOH = 56.0}
Antwoorddetails
To calculate the mass of potassium hydroxide required, we can use the formula: mass = moles × molar mass First, let's calculate the number of moles of potassium hydroxide required to make 300 cm3 of 0.4 mol dm-3 solution: moles = concentration × volume moles = 0.4 mol dm-3 × 0.3 dm3 = 0.12 moles The molar mass of potassium hydroxide (KOH) is 56.0 g mol-1, so we can now calculate the mass of KOH required: mass = moles × molar mass mass = 0.12 moles × 56.0 g mol-1 = 6.72 g Therefore, the mass of potassium hydroxide required to make 300 cm3 of 0.4 mol dm-3 solution is 6.72 g. So, the correct option is (C) 6.72g.
Vraag 38 Verslag

A non-electrolyte is a substance that does not conduct electricity when dissolved in water. It is usually a covalent compound that does not dissociate into ions when dissolved in water. Among the given substances, only C6H12O6 (glucose) is a non-electrolyte because it is a covalent compound made up of molecules that do not dissociate into ions in water. The other substances are electrolytes because they either ionize or dissociate into ions in water and conduct electricity. H2SO4 and NH4Cl are strong electrolytes because they dissociate completely into ions in water, while CH3COOH is a weak electrolyte because it only partially ionizes in water.
Vraag 39 Verslag
The boiling points of HF, H2O and NH3 increase in the order of
Antwoorddetails
The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes its state from liquid to gas. The boiling point of a substance is dependent on its intermolecular forces, which include van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding, and dipole-dipole interactions. The stronger the intermolecular forces, the higher the boiling point. In the given options, NH3, H2O, and HF are all polar molecules, which exhibit hydrogen bonding, the strongest of intermolecular forces. Among the given options, HF molecules have the strongest hydrogen bonding as compared to H2O and NH3 molecules. Therefore, HF has the highest boiling point among the given options. Similarly, NH3 molecules have the weakest hydrogen bonding as compared to HF and H2O molecules, so NH3 has the lowest boiling point among the given options. Therefore, the order of increasing boiling points is NH3 < HF < H2O. Hence, the correct option is: "NH3 < HF < H2O".

Vraag 41 Verslag
When element \(_{20}\)Y combines with element \(_8\)Z, it forms
Antwoorddetails
The answer to the question depends on the electronic configuration and reactivity of the elements Y and Z. Element Y has an atomic number of 20, indicating it has 20 protons in its nucleus, while element Z has an atomic number of 8, indicating it has 8 protons in its nucleus. To determine the type of compound formed, we need to consider the electronegativity of each element. Electronegativity is the measure of an atom's ability to attract electrons towards itself when it forms a chemical bond. Generally, when elements with a large difference in electronegativity combine, they form an ionic compound, while elements with similar electronegativity combine to form covalent compounds. Since Y has a larger atomic number than Z, it has more electrons in its valence shell, making it less electronegative than Z. Therefore, Y is more likely to donate its electrons to Z, forming an ionic compound with the formula YZ. So, the correct option is "An ionic compound, YZ is formed."

This property is due to the ability of the metallic bonds between atoms to stretch without breaking. As a result, metals can be drawn into thin wires, making them useful in electrical wiring and other applications.
Vraag 43 Verslag
Which of the following salts when dissolved in water will form a solution that will change blue litmus to red?
Antwoorddetails
The salt that will change blue litmus to red when dissolved in water is NH4Cl. This is because NH4Cl undergoes hydrolysis in water to form NH4OH and HCl. NH4OH is a weak base and will react with water to produce NH4+ and OH- ions. The OH- ions will increase the concentration of hydroxide ions in the solution, making it slightly basic. Litmus paper is an indicator that changes color in response to the pH of a solution. Blue litmus paper turns red in acidic solutions, and since the NH4Cl solution is slightly basic, it will change the blue litmus paper to red.

Antwoorddetails
Chemicals that are produced in small quantities and with a very high degree of purity are called "fine chemicals". Fine chemicals are also known as "specialty chemicals" or "performance chemicals". They are typically produced in relatively small quantities (usually less than 1000 tons per year) and are used for specific purposes in industries such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, agrochemicals, and electronics. Fine chemicals are produced through complex and highly specialized processes that require a high degree of technical expertise and advanced manufacturing techniques. The production of fine chemicals requires strict control of the purity and quality of the raw materials, as well as the process conditions, in order to ensure that the final product meets the required specifications and standards. Overall, the production of fine chemicals requires a high level of skill and expertise, and is often carried out by specialized companies that focus on producing these highly specialized chemicals.
Vraag 45 Verslag
Consider the following reaction equation
C2H4(g) + 3O2(g) \(\to\) 2CO2(g) + 2H2O(l).
The volume of oxygen at s.t.p that will be required to burn 14g of ethene is
[C2H4 = 28; Molar volume of gas at s.t.p = 22.4dm3
Antwoorddetails
To solve this problem, we need to first balance the chemical equation: C2H4(g) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2(g) + 2H2O(l)
From the balanced equation, we can see that 1 mole of ethene reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of carbon dioxide gas and 2 moles of liquid water.
We can calculate the number of moles of ethene using the given mass and molar mass: n(C2H4) = m/M = 14/28 = 0.5 moles
Using the mole ratio from the balanced equation, we can calculate the number of moles of oxygen required: n(O2) = 3n(C2H4) = 1.5 moles
Finally, we can use the ideal gas law to calculate the volume of oxygen at s.t.p: PV = nRT V = nRT/P = (1.5 mol)(8.31 J/mol K)(273 K)/(101,325 Pa) = 33.6 dm3
Therefore, the volume of oxygen at s.t.p that will be required to burn 14g of ethene is 33.6 dm3.
Answer: 33.6dm3.
Vraag 46 Verslag
Which of the following elements would produce coloured ion in agueous solution?
Antwoorddetails
Copper is the element that would produce a colored ion in aqueous solution. Copper ions have a tendency to form complex ions with water or other molecules, which can result in a range of colors depending on the specific ligands involved. For example, copper(II) sulfate forms a blue-colored solution when dissolved in water, while copper(II) chloride forms a green-colored solution. In general, transition metals such as copper are more likely to produce colored ions in solution due to the presence of unpaired electrons in their d orbitals.

Vraag 49 Verslag
Which of the following bonds are broken when ethanol is boiled?
I. Covalent bonds
II. Ionic bonds
III. Hydrogen bonds
Antwoorddetails
The correct answer is III only - hydrogen bonds are broken when ethanol is boiled. Ethanol is a molecule that contains both polar and nonpolar regions due to the presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group. The polar region of ethanol allows it to form hydrogen bonds with neighboring ethanol molecules. These hydrogen bonds are relatively weak and require less energy to break than covalent or ionic bonds. When ethanol is boiled, the increased thermal energy breaks the hydrogen bonds between the ethanol molecules, allowing the molecules to escape into the gas phase. The covalent bonds within the ethanol molecules and the ionic bonds between any ions present in the solution are not affected by boiling and remain intact.
Vraag 50 Verslag
The shape of the water molecule is_______?
Antwoorddetails
The shape of the water molecule is V-shaped. The water molecule has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, and the three atoms are not in a straight line, but form a V-shape. This is because of the arrangement of the electron pairs in the molecule. The two lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom repel the two hydrogen atoms, pushing them down and creating a V-shape. This shape gives water many of its unique properties, such as its ability to form hydrogen bonds and its high surface tension.
