Q:

which of the following are chemical changes?

A) Cooking of Food

B) Digestion of Food

C) Freezing of water

D) Water is heated up

A) A & B B) A, B & C
C) C & D D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) A & B

Explanation:

A) Cooking of Food  ------ Chemical Change

B) Digestion of Food ----- Chemical Change

C) Freezing of water ----- Physical Change

D) Water is heated up ---- Physical Change

because here the chemical composition of the substance changes in A & B only.

 

Since we know that, If the chemical composition is changing then it is a chemical change and if the chemical composition is remaining the same, then it is a physical change.

Q:

Is Nitrogen an Inert gas?

A) TRUE B) FALSE
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) FALSE

Explanation:

Nitrogen is found as a diatomic molecule (N2) in nature. There is a triple bond between the two nitrogen atoms.


 


The triple bond is pretty strong. Therefore, it needs a lot of energy to break those bonds and participate in a reaction. So nitrogen is commonly referred to as and used as an inert gas (high abundance & low cost.) However, it’s not truly inert like most noble gases. Nitrogen does react if the conditions are met. But those conditions are not exactly mild, but are not as extreme as for noble gases.


 


It forms nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide with oxygen, ammonia with hydrogen, and nitrogen sulfide with sulfur.

Q:

Is water a Pure substance?

A) TRUE B) FALSE
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) TRUE

Explanation:

True, Water is a Pure substance and not a mixture.


 


We know that, A mixture is when two or more substances combine physically together. You can find that the mixture retains the properties of the original components.


In water, two hydrogen atoms combine with one oxygen atom chemically, forming a new substance that has properties different from hydrogen alone or oxygen alone.


 


Therefore, water is not a mixture; it is a compound and it is pure.

Q:

The oxidation number of Cr in K2Cr2O7 is

A) +6 B) -5
C) +3 D) -4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) +6

Explanation:

We will rewrite the formula as an equation.

2K + 2Cr + 7O = 0

The zero comes from there being no overall charge on the compound.

Each oxidation number is represented by the element's symbol.

Since this compound is not a peroxide or superoxide, the oxidation value for O is -2

K being in group 1 has a +1 charge and therefore has an oxidation number of K is +1

Now, by putting known values in we have:

2(+1) + 2(Cr) + 7(-2) = 0

2 + 2Cr -14 = 0

2Cr = +12

Cr = +6.
