Explanation: D-block elements are call transition metals while f block are called inner transition elements.

Correct answer: Transition metals
  • A. Sc
  • B. Y
  • C. Cd
  • D. Co

Explanation: Option D is correct since only Co is a typical transition element.Group 2B (Zn, Cd, and Hg) and group 3B(Sc, Y, and La) are nontypical…

Correct answer: Co
  • A. Orbitals of f-subshell
  • B. Orbital's of d-sub shell
  • C. Orbitals of p-subshell
  • D. Both A and B

Explanation: This option is correct because it covers both option A and option B which are true.

Correct answer: Both A and B
  • A. Ionization state
  • B. Oxidation state
  • C. Electronic configuration
  • D. Formation of complexes

Explanation: Lanthanides and actinides are both transition elements and form complexes.

Correct answer: Formation of complexes
  • A. Na
  • B. Co
  • C. Ba
  • D. Ra

Explanation: "Cobalt" shows variable transition states and has a partially filled d-orbital therefore it is a transition element hence the answer is B.

Correct answer: Co
  • A. 48
  • B. 32
  • C. 58
  • D. 28

Explanation: There are "38" d-block elements that show variable oxidation states and have partially filled d-orbitals hence the answer is A.

Correct answer: 48
  • A. Diamagnetic
  • B. Paramagnetic
  • C. Good conductor
  • D. Ferromagnetic

Explanation: Compounds which have one or more unpaired electrons are attracted to poles of magnets and such compounds are called paramagnetic…

Correct answer: Paramagnetic
  • A. Cr
  • B. Mn
  • C. Fe
  • D. All of these

Explanation: The presence of unpaired electrons causes a molecule to be paramagnetic.

Correct answer: Cr
  • A. Propene
  • B. Propan-1-ol
  • C. Propan-2-ol
  • D. Potassium Propoxide

Explanation: a) Propene:When 2-bromopropane is heated with concentrated alcoholic potassium hydroxide (KOH), it undergoes an elimination reaction known…

Correct answer: Propene
  • A. C2H4
  • B. C2H5OH
  • C. C2H4ClOH
  • D. C2H6

Explanation: A is correct option because When ethyl chloride is reacted with alcoholic KOH, ethylene is formed.

Correct answer: C2H4
  • A. Combustion reaction
  • B. Oxidation
  • C. Elimination reaction
  • D. Addition reaction

Explanation: Tertiary alcohols undergo dehydration/elimination reaction to form alkenes under specific conditions i.e., heat + concentrated sulphuric…

Correct answer: Elimination reaction
  • A. Substitution reaction
  • B. Elimination reaction
  • C. Addition reaction
  • D. Replacement reaction

Explanation: In elimination reactions, molecules are removed from compounds without the addition of subsequent molecules.

Correct answer: Elimination reaction
  • A. H+ (aq) + OH-(aq) -> H2O(l)
  • B. H2 (g) + ½ O2 (g) -> H2O (l)
  • C. H2O(g) + H2O(l)
  • D. H2O(s) -> H2O(l)

Explanation: The reaction H₂(g) +1/2 O₂(g) → H₂O(l) shows the standard enthalpy change for the formation of water, where △H is the heat of formation of…

Correct answer: H2 (g) + ½ O2 (g) -> H2O (l)
  • A. Enthalpy of atomization
  • B. Enthalpy of fusion
  • C. Enthalpy of vaporization
  • D. Enthalpy of formation

Explanation: Option A, enthalpy of atomization, is the energy required to completely separate all the atoms in a chemical substance.

Correct answer: Enthalpy of atomization
  • A. Heat of fusion
  • B. Heat of vapourization
  • C. Heat of sublimation
  • D. Heat of evaporation

Explanation: The heat of fusion is the enthalpy change required to melt one mole of a solid substance at its melting point The heat of vaporization is…

Correct answer: Heat of sublimation
  • A. Enthalpy of formation
  • B. Enthalpy of combustion
  • C. Enthalpy of neutralization
  • D. Enthalpy of sublimation

Explanation: The enthalpy of formation is the standard reaction enthalpy for the formation of the compound from its elements (atoms or molecules) in…

Correct answer: Enthalpy of formation
  • A. Enthalpy of combustion
  • B. Enthalpy of solution.
  • C. Enthalpy of formation
  • D. Enthalpy of atomization

Explanation: Combustion reactions release heat, so the enthalpy change of the system, H, will always be negative.

Correct answer: Enthalpy of combustion
  • A. ΔG
  • B. ΔH
  • C. ΔE
  • D. ΔH-ΔE

Explanation: Enthalpy change is the heat absorbed by a substance at constant pressure. ΔH= ΔU + PΔV= Q - PΔV + PΔV = Q

Correct answer: ΔH
  • A. Solid phase
