A. Na > Mg > Al > Si > P > S > Cl
B. Na < Mg < Al < Si < P < S < Cl
C. Cl > S > P > Si > Al > Mg > Na
D. Na = Mg = Al = Si = P = S = Cl
Answer: Atomic size decreases across a period from left to right due to increasing effective nuclear charge pulling electrons closer to the nucleus.
A. 74 g/mol
B. 37 g/mol
C. 24.7 g/mol
D. 148 g/mol
Answer: Ca(OH)2 has n-factor = 2 (two OH- groups). Equivalent weight = 74 / 2 = 37 g/mol.
A. Na
B. Al
C. Ca
D. Fe
Answer: Al(OH)3 is amphoteric: it reacts with both acids (forming Al3+ salts) and bases (forming aluminate ions).
A. Ethanal
B. Ethene
C. Diethyl ether
D. Ethyl hydrogen sulfate
Answer: At 443 K (high temperature), ethanol undergoes dehydration to form ethene (CH2=CH2) and water via elimination of OH and H from adjacent carbons.
A. 2
B. 4
C. 6
D. 8
Answer: FCC has 8 corner atoms (8 x 1/8 = 1) + 6 face atoms (6 x 1/2 = 3) = 4 atoms per unit cell.
A. NaCl
B. MgO
C. KBr
D. CsI
Answer: MgO has the highest lattice energy due to the small ionic radii and high charges (+2 and -2) of Mg2+ and O2-, resulting in very strong electrostatic attractions.
A. +2
B. +3
C. +4
D. +6
Answer: In Fe2O3: 2(Fe) + 3(-2) = 0, so 2Fe = 6, Fe = +3.
A. Ethane
B. Ethene
C. Ethyne
D. Butane
Answer: Ethyne (acetylene, C2H2) contains a carbon-carbon triple bond (C≡C), making it an alkyne.
A. Reducing agent
B. Oxidizing agent
C. Catalyst
D. Dehydrating agent
Answer: MnO2 oxidizes HCl to produce Cl2: MnO2 + 4HCl -> MnCl2 + Cl2 + 2H2O. Here MnO2 is the oxidizing agent.
A. Propanal
B. Propan-2-one
C. Propanoic acid
D. Propan-1-ol
Answer: Propanone has the structure CH3COCH3. The carbonyl group is at carbon 2, so its IUPAC name is propan-2-one (commonly called acetone).
A. SN1
B. SN2
C. E1
D. E2
Answer: Primary alkyl halides favor SN2 because they have minimal steric hindrance, and strong nucleophiles with polar aprotic solvents further promote bimolecular substitution.
A. Cell potential increases
B. Cell potential decreases
C. Cell potential remains unchanged
D. Cell potential becomes zero
Answer: As Q increases, the logarithmic term (RT/nF)lnQ becomes more positive, which reduces E from E0, decreasing the cell potential.
A. +200 J
B. -200 J
C. 0 J
D. +100 J
Answer: At constant pressure, q = Delta H. Since heat is released (exothermic), Delta H = -200 J by sign convention.
B. 1
C. 2
D. 3
Answer: Rate = k[A]^n. If 2^n = 4, then n = 2, meaning the reaction is second order with respect to A.
A. I-
B. Br-
C. CN-
D. F-
Answer: CN- is a strong field ligand at the top of the spectrochemical series, causing the largest crystal field splitting (Delta_o).
A. Complete retention of configuration
B. Complete inversion of configuration
C. Racemization with some inversion
D. Complete retention only
Answer: SN1 proceeds through a planar carbocation intermediate. Nucleophilic attack from both faces gives racemization, but ion pairing often causes slight excess inversion.
A. Rate = k[CH3Br]
B. Rate = k[OH-]
C. Rate = k[CH3Br][OH-]
D. Rate = k[CH3Br]^2[OH-]
Answer: SN2 is bimolecular: both the substrate and nucleophile are involved in the rate-determining step, so Rate = k[CH3Br][OH-].
A. 6, +2
B. 6, +3
C. 3, +3
D. 6, +6
Answer: Six NH3 ligands give coordination number 6. Each NH3 is neutral and 3 Cl- balance the charge, so Co is +3.
A. Linkage isomerism
B. Geometric (cis-trans) isomerism
C. Ionization isomerism
D. Coordination isomerism
Answer: The complex can exist as cis (Cl ligands adjacent) and trans (Cl ligands opposite) geometric isomers due to its octahedral geometry.
A. Energy is conserved in all chemical reactions
B. The total enthalpy change is independent of the path taken between initial and final states
C. All exothermic reactions have negative activation energy
D. Equilibrium constant depends on temperature only
Answer: Hess\'s law states that the total enthalpy change for a reaction is the same regardless of whether it occurs in one step or multiple steps, because enthalpy is a state function.
