1. |
The following atoms of carbon 126C, 136C and 146C can be described as? A. Allotropes B. Isomers C. Isotopes D. Isotones |
C |
2. |
An atom X consist of 6 protons, 6 electrons and 7 neutrons. Which of the following representations of the atom is correct? A. 136X B. 137X C. 196X D. 197X |
A |
3. |
How many electron are present in 94Be2+? A. 2 B. 4 C. 5 D. 6 |
A |
4. |
When element \(_{20}\)Y combines with element \(_8\)Z, it forms A. A covalent compound , YZ is formed B. A covalent compound, ZY is formed C. An ionic compound, YZ is formed D. An ionic compound, ZY is formed
Show Content
Detailed SolutionY = 2,8,8,2 and Z = 2,6.Y will readily give off its 2 valence electrons and Z will accept the 2 electrons in order to achieve octet configuration. Hence, the compound YZ is formed by ionic bonding. |

The mass of potassium hydroxide required to make 300.ocm3 of 0.4 moldm-3 solution is {KOH = 56.0} A. 26.88g B. 13.44g C. 6.72g D. 3.36g
Show Content
Detailed Solution300cm3 of 0.4moldm31000cm3 contains 0.4mole 300cm3 will contain \(\frac{300 \times 0.4}{1000}\) = 0.12mole Number of moles = \(\frac{Mass}{\text {Molecular mass}}\) Mass = number of moles x m.mass = 0.12 x 56 = 6.72g |
