Question 1

Q1. The rate constant of a reaction is independent of:

Accepted Answer

Option C: Concentration of reactants. Rate constant depends on temperature and catalyst but not on reactant concentration.

Question 2

Q2. Which electrolyte shows maximum van't Hoff factor in aqueous solution?

Accepted Answer

Option C: CaCl2. CaCl2 dissociates into 3 ions, giving highest van't Hoff factor.

Question 3

Q3. In coordination compounds, ligands donate:

Accepted Answer

Option B: Electron pairs. Ligands act as Lewis bases by donating lone pairs.

Question 4

Q4. The hybridization of central atom in NH3 is:

Accepted Answer

Option C: sp3. Nitrogen in NH3 has four electron pairs → sp3 hybridization.

Question 5

Q5. Which is a zero-order reaction example?

Accepted Answer

Option B: Hydrolysis of ester in alkaline medium (catalyzed). Rate independent of concentration in surface-catalyzed reactions.

Question 6

Q6. A reaction doubles its rate when temperature increases by 10°C. This indicates:

Accepted Answer

Option B: High activation energy. Higher sensitivity to temperature implies higher activation energy.

Question 7

Q7. Which species acts as a Lewis acid?

Accepted Answer

Option C: BF3. BF3 accepts electron pair due to incomplete octet.

Question 8

Q8. Which solution will show highest boiling point elevation?

Accepted Answer

Option C: 0.1 m K2SO4. K2SO4 dissociates into 3 ions → highest colligative effect.

Question 9

Q9. The strongest intermolecular force is present in:

Accepted Answer

Option B: NH3. NH3 exhibits hydrogen bonding.

Question 10

Q10. The oxidation state of Mn in KMnO4 is:

Accepted Answer

Option D: +7. K(+1) + Mn + 4×(-2) = 0 → Mn = +7.

Question 11

Q11. Rusting of iron is an example of:

Accepted Answer

Option B: Oxidation. Iron undergoes oxidation in presence of oxygen and moisture.

Question 12

Q12. Coordination number of [Co(NH3)6]3+ is:

Accepted Answer

Option C: 6. Six ligands are directly attached to Co³ ⁺ .

Question 13

Q13. Which polymer is biodegradable?

Accepted Answer

Option C: PHBV. PHBV is a biodegradable copolymer used in medical applications.

Question 14

Q14. Assertion (A): Molecularity of a reaction can be zero. Reason (R): Molecularity may vary with conditions.

Accepted Answer

Option D: A false R true. Molecularity is always a positive integer, not zero.

Question 15

Q15. Assertion (A): Catalyst changes equilibrium constant of reaction. Reason (R): Catalyst lowers activation energy equally for forward and reverse reactions.

Accepted Answer

Option B: A false R true. Catalyst does not change equilibrium constant, only rate.

Question 16

Q16. Case Study: A student observes that sugar dissolves faster in hot water than cold water. What is the reason?

Accepted Answer

Option B: Increased kinetic energy of molecules. Higher temperature increases molecular motion and collision rate.

Question 17

Q17. Case Study: A solution shows abnormal colligative properties due to dissociation. This is explained by:

Accepted Answer

Option B: van't Hoff factor. van't Hoff factor accounts for ionization in solutions.

Question 18

Q18. Which has highest electrical conductivity?

Accepted Answer

Option B: HCl. HCl is a strong electrolyte and fully dissociates.

Question 19

Q19. For a first-order reaction, half-life is:

Accepted Answer

Option B: Independent of concentration. t1/2 = 0.693/k, independent of initial concentration.

Question 20

Q20. Which compound shows strongest hydrogen bonding?

Accepted Answer

Option B: H2O. O–H bonds in water create strong hydrogen bonding network.
