Explanation / Answer


1)

Qualitative observation indicates the composition of the substance. Among all the options the substance is a powder and is red in colour.

Answer : A

2)

11 electrons means the electronic configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1.

Answer : d

3)

the electronic configuration is given by 1s2 2s2 2p3 and it is the configuration of atom N.

Answer : d

4)

In the formation of Na3P from the neutral atoms as below.

Na3P ------> 3Na+ + P3-

3Na ------> 3Na+ + 3e- (3 Na atoms loses 3e-)

P + 3e- -----> P3-

So each Na atom loses 1e- and each P atom gains 3e-

5)

Among all the reactions the following reaction is single displacement reaction since Al replaces the Fe from the given compound.

2 Al(s) + 3 Fe(NO3)3 (aq) --------> 3 Fe(s) + 2Al(NO3)3(aq)

Answer : b

6)

CaSo4 is a stable salt which has the solubilty product value very low so the precipitate least soluble in the water.

Answer : b

7)

Molecular equation

Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 KCl(aq) ------> PbCl2(s) + 2 KNO3(aq)

Ionic equation

Pb+2(aq) + 2 NO3-(aq) + 2 K+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) ------> PbCl2(s) + 2K+(aq) + 2 NO3-(aq)

Net ionic equation

Pb+2(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) -------> PbCl2(s)

Answer : d

8)

1 mole of any substance have 6.023 * 10^23 particles of the substance

Answer : a
