25.

In an equilibrium reaction, which of the following conditions indicates that maximum yield of the product will be obtained?

A. Equilibrium constant is very large

B. ∆H - T∆S = O

C. ∆ H > T ∆ S

D. Equilibrium constant is less than zero

Detailed Solution

There is an explanation video available below.
26.

In a chemical reaction, the change in concentration of a reactant with time is

A. entropy of reaction

B. enthalpy of reaction

C. rate of reaction

D. order of reaction

Detailed Solution

There is an explanation video available below.
27.

Fluorine does not occur in the free state in nature because

A. it is a poisonous gas

B. it belongs to the halogen family

C. it is inert

D. of its high reactivity

Detailed Solution

There is an explanation video available below.
28.

In the extraction of sodium from fused sodium chloride, the anode is made of platinum because

A. sodium is formed at the anode

B. chlorine is formed at the anode

C. sodium does not react with platinum

D. chlorine does not react with platinum

Detailed Solution

Because platinum is resistant to chlorine and water, hence in the electrolytic process, it doesn't react with any chemical and we get pure products.
