Question 2 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 5 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 6 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 7 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 8 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.

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 15 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 16 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.

Question 18 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 19 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 20 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.

Answer Details
The active component of baking powder is sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). It is responsible for the leavening or rising of baked goods by releasing carbon dioxide gas when it reacts with an acid. Other ingredients in baking powder, such as monocalcium phosphate and sodium aluminum sulfate, provide the acid component for the reaction to occur. Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) and calcium sulfate (CaSO4) are not typically used in baking powder, and sodium chloride (NaCl) is simply table salt and not an active ingredient in leavening.
Question 23 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 24 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 25 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 26 Report

𝑉2=20 dm3=20×1000 cm3=20000 cm3V2=20dm3=20×1000cm3=20000cm3
Now, using Boyle's Law:
𝑃1𝑉1=𝑃2𝑉2P1V1=P2V2
Substitute the known values into the equation:
10×30=𝑃2×2000010×30=P2×20000
300=𝑃2×20000300=P2×20000
Solve for 𝑃2P2:
𝑃2=30020000P2=20000300
𝑃2=0.015 atmospheresP2=0.015atmospheres
Therefore, the new pressure if the temperature is kept constant is:
Question 27 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 28 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 29 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.

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 33 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.

Answer Details
Question 36 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 40 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.
