Explanation: In electrolysis, current is carried through the electrolytic solution inside the cell by positive and negative ions using…
Correct answer: Both Options B and C are correct- A. Electrons
- B. Charges
- C. Energy
- D. Hydrogen ions
Explanation: Redox reactions (oxidation-reduction reactions) are actually the transfer of electrons.
Correct answer: Electrons- A. Sodium
- B. Hydrogen
- C. Chlorine
- D. Oxygen
Explanation: Chloride ions (Cl⁻) are attracted to the positive electrode (anode) during the electrolysis of a dilute solution of NaCl.
Correct answer: Chlorine- A. Copper sulphate
- B. Copper chloride
- C. Zinc Chloride
- D. Zinc Sulphate
Explanation: Zinc, in a voltaic cell, is always dipped in zinc sulfate to get an excess of Zn2+ ions.
Correct answer: Zinc Sulphate- A. (NH4)2Cr2O7
- B. K2Cr2O7
- C. Zn(ClO3)2
- D. KClO3
Explanation: This compound, also known as ammonium dichromate, decomposes upon heating to form chromium (lll) oxide, nitrogen gas, and water vapor.
Correct answer: (NH4)2Cr2O7- A. C(s) + H2O(g) -> CO(g) +2H2(g)
- B. CH3O(l) + CH3CO2H(l) -> CH2CO2CH2(l) + H2O (l)
- C. Cu2+(aq) + 4NH2(aq) -> Cu(NH2)23+ (aq)
- D. N2O4(g) -> 2NO2
Explanation: The units of Kc are dependent upon the number of moles of (only of gases and liquids, not solids like in option A) reactants and products.
Correct answer: CH3O(l) + CH3CO2H(l) -> CH2CO2CH2(l) + H2O (l)- A. Extent of reaction
- B. Direction of reaction
- C. Both A and B
- D. None of the above
Explanation: The explanation for this question will be added soon.
Correct answer: Both A and B- A. KC
- B. K
- C. Kp
- D. None of these
Explanation: Option C is correct since equilibrium constant Kp represents the extent of the forward reaction in terms of the partial pressures of the…
Correct answer: Kp- A. Stability
- B. Reactivity
- C. Compressibility
- D. Instability
Explanation: The equilibrium constant for the decomposition of ozone to oxygen is 1055 at 25°C.2O3 → 3O2 Kc= 1055 at 25°CIt infers that at room…
Correct answer: Instability- A. High
- B. Low
- C. Negligible
- D. None of these
Explanation: The tendency of an irreversible reaction to go in the reverse direction is negligible.
Correct answer: Negligible- A. Maximum
- B. Minimum
- C. Zero
- D. Negligible
Explanation: OPTION A: Maximum is incorrect because, at equilibrium, the rate of the forward and reverse reactions is equal, so there is no net change…
Correct answer: Zero12615. Equilibrium constant has?
- A. Units
- B. No Units
- C. Both options A and B are correct
- D. A negative value
Explanation: The equilibrium constant formula is kc= concentration of right-hand-side / left-hand-side.
Correct answer: Both options A and B are correct12616. When the number of moles of reactants and products are the same, the equilibrium constant will have:
- A. Negative value
- B. Large value
- C. No units
- D. Units
Explanation: OPTION A: A small (negative) Kc value (less than 1) indicates that there are more reactants than products at equilibrium.
Correct answer: No units- A. Kc
- B. K
- C. Kp
- D. None of these
Explanation: Option A is wrong because Kc is not the equilibrium constant for ideal gases in terms of partial pressure.
Correct answer: Kp- A. Reactants over products
- B. Products over reactants
- C. Product times Reactants
- D. None of these
Explanation: At 'equilibrium', the rate of the forward and reverse reactions are equal.
Correct answer: Products over reactants- A. No Reaction
- B. Backward Reaction
- C. Little Forward Reaction
- D. Complete Reaction
