1, 2
B
1, 3
C
2, 3
D
All the above
Question 47 Explanation: 
The reaction that cannot be reversed is called irreversible reaction. Th e irreversible reactions are unidirectional, i.e., they take place only in the forward direction. Consider the combustion of coal into carbon dioxide and water. C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + Heat In this reaction, solid coal burns with oxygen and gets converted into carbon dioxide gas and water. As the product is a gas, as soon as it is formed it escapes out of the reaction container. It is extremely hard to decompose a gas into a solid. Th us, the backward reaction is not possible in this case. So, it is an irreversible reaction.

Question 55 Explanation: 
Food kept at room temperature spoils faster than that kept in the refrigerator. In the refrigerator, the temperature is lower than the room temperature and hence the reaction rate is less.
Question 56
If the reactants are gases, increasing their pressure______ the reaction rate.
A
Increases
B
Decreases
C
Initially increase then decreases
D
None
Question 57
On heating potassium chlorate, it decomposes into_______
A
KCl, O2
B
KOH, Cl2
C
KOCl2
D
KOH, H2
Question 57 Explanation: 
A catalyst is a substance which increases the reaction rate without being consumed in the reaction. In certain reactions, adding a substance as catalyst speeds up the reaction. For example, on heating potassium chlorate, it decomposes into potassium chloride and oxygen gas, but at a slower rate. If manganese dioxide is added, it increases the reaction rate.
Question 58
Which of the following statement is correct?
  1. When solid reactants are involved in a reaction, their powdered form reacts more readily
  2. Because, powdering of the reactants increases the surface area and more energy is available on collision of the reactant particles
A
1 alone
B
2 alone
C
1, 2
D
None
Question 58 Explanation: 
When solid reactants are involved in a reaction, their powdered form reacts more readily. For example, powdered calcium carbonate reacts more readily with hydrochloric acid than marble chips. Because, powdering of the reactants increases the surface area and more energy is available on collision of the reactant particles. Thus, the reaction rate is increased.
Question 59
Which of the following statement is correct?
  1. Although pure water is often considered as a non-conductor of electricity, precise measurements show that it conducts electricity to a little extent
  2. This conductivity of water has resulted from the self-ionisation of water
  3. The proton gets dissolved in water forming the hydronium ion
A
1, 2
B
1, 3
C
2, 3
D
All the above
Question 59 Explanation: 
Although pure water is often considered as a non-conductor of electricity, precise measurements show that it conducts electricity to a little extent. This conductivity of water has resulted from the self-ionisation of water. Self-ionisation or auto ionisation is a reaction in which two like molecules react to give ions. In the process of ionisation of water, a proton from one water molecule is transferred to another water molecule leaving behind an OH— ion. The proton gets dissolved in water forming the hydronium ion as shown in the following equation:
Question 60
  • Assertion(A): Initially the rate of the backward reaction is greater than the rate of the forward  Reaction
  • Reason(R): During the course of reaction, the concentration of the reactants decreases and the  concentration of the products increases.
A
Both (A) and (R) are correct, but (R) does not explain (A)
B
Both (A) and (R) are wrong
C
Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) explains (A)
D
(A) is wrong and (R) is correct
Question 60 Explanation: 
Initially the rate of the forward reaction is greater than the rate of the backward reaction. However, during the course of reaction, the concentration of the reactants decreases and the concentration of the products increases. Since the rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration, the rate of the forward reaction decreases with time, whereas the rate of the backward reaction increases.
Question 61
Which of the following statement is correct?
  1. Not only chemical changes, physical changes also may attain equilibrium.
  2. Physical equilibrium is a state of a physical change at which the volume of all the phases remain unchanged.
A
1 alone
B
2 alone
C
1, 2
D
None
Question 61 Explanation: 
Not only chemical changes, physical changes also may attain equilibrium. When water kept in a closed vessel evaporates, it forms water vapour. No water vapour escapes out of the container as the process takes place in a closed vessel. So, it builds up the vapour pressure in the container. At one time, the water vapour condenses back into liquid water and when the rate of this condensation becomes equal to that of vapourisation, the process attains equilibrium. At this stage, the volume of the liquid and gaseous phases remain constant. Since it is a physical change, the equilibrium attained is called ‘Physical Equilibrium’. Physical equilibrium is a state of a physical change at which the volume of all the phases remain unchanged.
Question 62
Which of the following properties remain unchanged in a equilibrium reaction?
  1. Colour
  2. Viscosity
  3. Density
  4. Pressure
A
1, 2
B
1, 3
C
2, 3
D
All the above
Question 62 Explanation: 
Characteristics of equilibrium: In a chemical equilibrium, the rates of the forward and backward reactions are equal. The observable properties such as pressure, concentration, colour, density, viscosity etc., of the system remain unchanged with time. The chemical equilibrium is a dynamic equilibrium, because both the forward and backward reactions continue to occur even though it appears static externally. In physical equilibrium, the volume of all the phases remain constant.
Question 63
In Aerated soft drinks dissolved carbon dioxide in the form of______
A
Carbonic acid
B
Carboxylic acid
C
Epoxy resin
D
Hydrogen chloride
Question 63 Explanation: 
Aerated soft drinks contain dissolved carbon dioxide in a pop bottle (Soda). When the bottle is sealed, the dissolved carbon dioxide (in the form of carbonic acid) and gaseous CO2 are in equilibrium with each other. When you open the bottle, the gaseous CO2 can escape. So, the dissolved CO2 begins to un-dissolve back to the gas phase trying to replace the gas that was lost, when you opened the bottle. That’s why if you leave it open long enough, it will goes ‘flat’. All the CO2 will be gone, blown away in the air.
Question 64
The hydronium ion formed is a______ acid and the hydroxyl ion is a______ base
A
Strong, Weak
B
Weak, Weak
C
Strong, Strong
D
Weak, Strong
Question 64 Explanation: 
The hydronium ion formed is a strong acid and the hydroxyl ion is a strong base. So as fast as they are formed, they react again to produce water. Thus, it is a reversible reaction and attains equilibrium very quickly. So, the extent of ionisation is very little and the concentration of the ions produced is also very less.
Question 65
What is the value if ionic product of water?
A
1.00 × 10^-14
B
1.00 × 10^14
C
2.00 × 10^-14
D
2.00 × 10^14
Question 65 Explanation: 
The product of the concentration of the hydronium ion and the hydroxyl ion is called ‘ionic product of water’. It is denoted as ‘Kw’. It is mathematically expressed as follows: Kw = [H3 O+] [OH-] Its unit is mol^2 dm^-6. At 25° C, its value is 1.00 × 10^-14.
Question 66
Which of the following decides whether the aqueous solution is acid or base?
A
Hydrogen ion
B
Hydroxyl ions
C
Either a or b
D
None
Question 66 Explanation: 
All the aqueous solutions may contain hydrogen and hydroxyl ions due to self-ionisation of water. In addition to this ionisation, substances dissolved in water also may produce hydrogen ions or hydroxyl ions. The concentration of these ions decides whether the solution is acidic or basic.

D
All the above
Question 71 Explanation: 
The pH of a solution can be determined by using a universal indicator. It contains a mixture of dyes. It comes in the form of a solution or a pH paper. A more common method of measuring pH in a school laboratory is by using the pH paper. A pH paper contains a mixture of indicators. It shows a specific colour at a given pH. A colour guide is provided with the bottle of the indicator or the strips of paper impregnated with it, which are called pH paper strips. Th e test solution is tested with a drop of the universal indicator, or a drop of the test solution is put on the pH paper. The colour of the solution on the pH paper is compared with the colour chart and the pH value is read from it. The pH values thus obtained are only approximate values.
Question 72

A
Acidic
B
Basic
C
Alkaline
D
Saline
Question 76 Explanation: 
In agriculture, the pH of the soil is very important. Citrus fruits require slightly alkaline soil, while rice requires acidic soil and sugarcane requires neutral soil.
Question 77
The pH of rain water is approximately_____
A
7
B
9
C
4
D
3
Question 77 Explanation: 
The pH of rain water is approximately 7, which means that it is neutral and also represents its high purity. If the atmospheric air is polluted with oxide gases of sulphur and nitrogen, they get dissolved in the rain water and make its pH less than 7. Th us, if the pH of rain water is less than 7, then it is called acid rain. When acid rain fl ows into the rivers it lowers the pH of the river water also.
