Question 1 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.

Question 3 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 4 Report
Which of the following roles does sodium chloride play in preparation? It
Answer Details
The role that sodium chloride (NaCl) plays in soap preparation is to separate soap from glycerol. When fats or oils are hydrolyzed with an alkali, such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), the result is a mixture of soap and glycerol. Adding NaCl to this mixture helps to induce the precipitation of the soap, allowing it to be separated from the glycerol. This process is known as "salting out" and is used to purify the soap and remove impurities. Sodium chloride does not react with glycerol or accelerate the decomposition of fat and oil. Also, it does not convert the fatty acid to its sodium salt as this conversion is done by the alkali (such as NaOH) during the saponification process.
Question 5 Report
The sub-atomic particles located in the nucleus of an atom are?
Answer Details
The sub-atomic particles located in the nucleus of an atom are neutron and proton. The nucleus is the dense core of an atom that contains most of its mass. Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus, and they determine the atomic number of the element. Neutrons are neutral particles found in the nucleus, and they help stabilize the nucleus by balancing the repulsive forces between the positively charged protons. Electrons, on the other hand, are negatively charged particles that are located outside the nucleus in energy levels or shells. They are attracted to the positively charged nucleus by electrostatic forces and are involved in chemical bonding between atoms. The number of protons in the nucleus determines the identity of the element, while the number of neutrons determines its isotopes. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus. In summary, the two sub-atomic particles located in the nucleus of an atom are neutron and proton.
Question 6 Report
Hard water is water with high concentrations of dissolved ions, in particular calcium and
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 7 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 9 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.

Question 11 Report
\(2\mathrm{H}_2 + \mathrm{O}_2 \rightarrow 2\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{O}\)
From the equation above, calculate the volume of unreacted oxygen gas if a mixture of \(50\mathrm{cm}^3\) of hydroden and \(75\mathrm{cm}^3\) 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
\(\mathrm{N_2O_4}\) ? \(2\mathrm{NO_2}\) (? = -ve)
From the reaction above, which of these conditions would produce the highest equilibrium yield for \(\mathrm{N_2O_4}\)?
Answer Details
The highest equilibrium yield of N2O4 would be produced at low temperature and low pressure. In a chemical reaction, the position of the equilibrium can be influenced by changing the temperature or pressure. A decrease in temperature or an increase in pressure favors the side of the reaction with the fewer moles of gas (in this case, N2O4). This means that, if the temperature is low and the pressure is low, there will be more N2O4 at equilibrium, as the reaction will shift to the right to counteract the reduction in the concentration of N2O4. So, low temperature and low pressure would produce the highest equilibrium yield of N2O4.
Question 14 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.
Question 15 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.

Answer Details
Question 17 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 18 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 20 Report
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.
Question 21 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 22 Report
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.

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.
Question 26 Report
\( \mathrm{Zn + 2HCl \rightarrow ZnCl_2 + H_2} \)
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 27 Report
Which of the following is used as a moderator to control nuclear fission?
Answer Details
Heavy water (D2O) is used as a moderator to control nuclear fission. A moderator is a substance that is used to slow down the neutrons produced in a nuclear reaction, making them more likely to be captured by the fuel nuclei and causing further fission. Heavy water is a type of water that contains a larger amount of the isotope deuterium (D) than regular water. Deuterium has an extra neutron compared to the more common hydrogen isotope, and this makes heavy water more effective at slowing down neutrons than regular water. Lead, iron, and chromium are not typically used as moderators in nuclear reactors. Lead can be used as a shield to absorb radiation, while iron and chromium are used in the construction of the reactor vessel and other components.
Question 28 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.

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.
Question 32 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 34 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 39 Report
How many neutrons are present in atom with mass number and atomic number 37 and 17 respectively?
Answer Details
The atomic number of an atom represents the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. Since the atomic number given is 17, it means that there are 17 protons in the nucleus. The mass number of an atom represents the total number of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus. Therefore, if the mass number is given as 37, it means that the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus is 37. To determine the number of neutrons in the nucleus, we can subtract the atomic number (which represents the number of protons) from the mass number (which represents the total number of protons and neutrons). Thus, the number of neutrons in the atom with a mass number of 37 and an atomic number of 17 is: Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number = 37 - 17 = 20 Therefore, the answer is 20.
