Ans.  (d) An Antacid

6. What does pH of solution signify? Three solutions A, B and C have pH values 6, 2, and 10 respectively. Which of the solution is highly acidic? Which solution will turn red litmus blue?

AnspH which measures hydrogen ion concentration in a solution has values 0 to 14. The pH of a neutral solution is 7. Higher the H3O+ ion Concentration, lower the pH value.

Solution with pH value 2 is highly acidic.

Solution with PH value 10 will turn red litmus to blue.

7. Observe the following figures:

Arrange the given test tubes in the increasing order of their pH. justify your arrangement.
Ans. The pH of hydrochloric acid (iii) is the least as it is a strong acid.
The pH of ethanoic acid (I) will be more than (iii) as it is a weak acid.
The pH of water (ii) would be 7.
The pH of sodium bicarbonate(iv)is above 7 as it is a base.
Hence the increasing order of pH is 3, 1,2 and 4.
8. Four students were asked to test the pH of 4 samples as shown under. Whose result is reported
Ans. Student: D

9. Student at a few drops of universal indicator to three unknown colourless solution P, Q and R taken in three test tubes separately. A student observes the changes in colour as green in P, red in Q and violet in R. arrange the test tube in decreasing order of their pH. Justify the same.

Ans: Arrangement of test tubes in decreasing order of PH would be R > P >Q R shows violet colour; hence its pH is above 7, P shows green colour, hence its pH is 7, Q shows red colour, hence its pH is 7

10. Which one of the following set-ups is the most appropriate for the evolution of hydrogen gas and its identification? Explain your choice.

Ans: The most appropriate setup is B in this setup the hydrogen gas produced when NaOH is added to zinc granules moves upward due to being lighter than air And is allowed to come in contact with burning matchstick through glass tube in the most proper way.

11. Is is a pH indicator is dipped grape juice What will be the possible colour of pH paper?

a) deep red b) blue c) orange d) violet

Ans: c) orange

a) Red and blue b) green and blue c) Red and Green d) Orange and green

Ans: a) Red and blue

13. Hydrogen gas does not show any change with the Litmus paper because:

a) It does not react with Litmus
b) it is neither acidic or basic
c) Both (a) and (b) are correct
d) Both (a) and (b) are incorrect

14. Why does the colour of copper sulphate solution change, when an iron nail is dipped in it? A; On adding iron nail in copper sulphate, displacement reaction will take. Iron being more reactive than copper displaces copper to form a green colour solution of iron sulphate and copper metal is displaced.

15. A student dropped few pieces of marble in dilute hydrochloric acid contained in a test tube. The evolved gas was then passed through lime water. What change would be observed in lime water? Write balanced chemical equation for both the change observed?

Ans: When dilute HCl is added to marble which is calcium carbonate, it forms calcium chloride, water and carbon dioxide. The chemical equation for the reaction is as follows:

CaCO3 + 2HCl → CaCl2 + H2O + CO2

Carbon dioxide gas turns lime water milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate. The chemical equation showing the reaction between lime water and carbon dioxide is as follows:

Ca (OH)2 + CO2 → CaCO3 + H₂O

22. Arrange sodium magnesium zinc aluminium Copper and gold in order of their decreasing reactivity.

Ans: Na > Mg > Al > Zn > Cu > Au

23. A student takes crystals of ferrous sulphate in a clean and dry test tube. On heating it, what would be the observation?

Ans: Green colour of the ferrous sulphate solution disappears to form a colourless solution and greyish coating of iron is formed on the surface of zinc.

AnsWhite colour Lead Nitrate is decomposed to form yellow colour lead oxide Brown colour gas due to the release of Nitrogen dioxide gas is observed

25. Magnesium ribbon burns in air to form white powder. give the equation to represent the reaction and name the type of reaction.

Ans: 2Mg (s) + O2(g)  ---------------- 2MgO (s)

This is called combination reaction

Na2SO4 (aq) + BaCl2 (aq) · --------BaSO4 (s) + 2 NaCl (aq)

27. State three types of decomposition reaction:

Ansthree type of decomposition reaction are due to

Light  - 2AgBr (s)  -----------------  2 Ag (s) + Br2 (g)

Electric current -- 2H2O ------------- 2H2 (g) + O2(g)

28. What happens when zinc is added to blue colour copper sulphate solution?

Ans: the blue colour copper sulphate solution become colourless.

29. Aluminium sulphate and copper sulphate solutions were taken in two test tubes I and Il respectively. A few pieces of iron filings were then added to both the solutions. The four students A, B, C and D recorded their observations in the form of a table as given below:

Which student has recorded the correct set of observations.?
AnsStudent B has noted the correct set of observations.

Reason: Fe is less reactive than Al but more reactive than Cu. Hence, displacement reaction will occur in test tube II
