Sample questions

  1. 1.Identify which of the following terms match with the appropriate descriptions (i) to (v). A: Hydracid B: Monobasic acid C: Less volatile acid D: Weak acid E: Dibasic acid F: More volatile acid (i) An acid having basicity 1 and having only one replaceable hydrogen ion per molecule of the acid. (ii) An acid which dissociates to give a low concentration of H⁺ ions. (iii) An acid containing hydrogen and a non-metallic element other than oxygen. (iv) The type of acid which generally displaces another acid when heated with salt. (v) The type of acid which reacts with a base to give an acid salt and a normal salt.
  2. 2.Which of the following correctly describes the preparation of bases using the method 'By the action of water on reactive metals' along with the appropriate chemical equation?
    • A.Reactive metals like sodium react with water to form alkalis and hydrogen gas. Equation: 2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂↑
    • B.Metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides. Equation: 4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O
    • C.Soluble metallic oxides react with water to form acids. Equation: Na₂O + H₂O → H₂SO₄
    • D.Aqueous solutions of salts react with acids to precipitate metallic hydroxides. Equation: FeCl₃ + HCl → Fe(OH)₃↓ + NaCl
  3. 3.The formula of hydrocyanic acid is _______, and it is classified as a _______ acid.
    • A.HCOOH, strong
    • B.HCN, weak
    • C.HCl, weak
    • D.HCN, strong

    • A.Copper nitrate
    • B.Zinc nitrate
    • C.Lead nitrate
    • D.Sodium nitrate
