Sample questions
-
1.Which of the following correctly illustrates the reducing action of aluminium with an example?
- A.Aluminium reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce aluminium chloride and hydrogen gas.
- B.In aluminothermy, aluminium powder reduces iron oxide to iron: Fe₂O₃ + 2Al → 2Fe + Al₂O₃ + Heat.
- C.Aluminium oxide decomposes into aluminium and oxygen when heated strongly.
- D.Aluminium displaces copper from copper sulphate solution to form aluminium sulphate and copper.
-
2.What is meant by the amphoteric nature of aluminium? It refers to aluminium's ability to:
- A.react only with acids to form salts and hydrogen gas, as shown by 2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl₃ + 3H₂.
- B.react with both acids and bases, forming salts and hydrogen gas, illustrated by reactions with HCl and NaOH.
- C.form a protective oxide layer that prevents further reaction with acids or bases.
- D.react exclusively with bases to produce aluminate salts, such as 2Al + 2NaOH + 2H₂O → 2NaAlO₂ + 3H₂.
-
3.Iron displaces metals which lie below it in the metal activity series from their salt solutions. Which of the following represents the balanced chemical equation for the reaction of iron with copper sulphate solution?
- A.Fe + CuSO₄ → FeSO₄ + Cu
- B.Fe + CuSO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + Cu
- C.2Fe + 3CuSO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 3Cu
- D.Fe + Cu → FeSO₄ + CuSO₄
-
4.Which reaction correctly represents the reduction of ferric oxide by aluminium powder?
- A.Fe₂O₃ + Al → Fe + AlO₃
- B.Fe₂O₃ + 2Al → Al₂O₃ + 2Fe
- C.2Fe₂O₃ + 3Al → 3Al₂O₃ + 4Fe
