Q1. Conversion of ore to oxide is generally carried out by the process of
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Calcination is employed for carbonate ores to convert into respective oxide ores. Roasting is employed for sulphide ores for convertion to oxide ores.

Q2. Before the 4p orbital is filled, filling up of 3d orbitals becomes energetically favourable and there are 3d transition series of elements. This starts from scandium (Z = 21) which has the outermost electronic configuration of.


Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

The electronic configuration of scandium is [Ar] 3d1 4s2.

Q3. According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, in dealing with milligram-sized or heavier objects,
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

The effect of Heisenberg uncertainty principle is significant only for motion of microscopic objects, it is negligible in case of macroscopic objects. For example, we apply the concept of uncertainty to an object of mass 1 milligram.



The value of is very small and insignificant in this case. Therefore, when we deal with heavier objects the associated uncertainties have no real consequences and can be neglected.


Q4. Avogadro's constant is the number of entities ( viz. atoms , molecules or ions ) present in ------------- mole of a substance.
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Avagadro's constant  represents the number of  entities ( viz, atoms , molecules or ions )  present  in 1 mole of a substance .

The  constant ( denoted by  N )

 =6.022 x 1023 


Q5. In cold places, vegetables, fruits and flowers are grown in glass covered areas called green houses. This is because of one or more of the following. Choose the most appropriate :
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

In cold places, vegetables, fruits and flowers are grown in glass covered areas as they maintains the temperature as well as traps the solar energy. Glass is opaque to IR (heat) radiation and it partly absorbs and partly reflects the heat which maintains the temperature and traps the solar energy.

Q6. Which one of the following compound is deliquescent?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

ZnCl2 is deliquescent.
Q7. Arrange the following sets of compounds in order of their increasing boiling points : Pentan – 1 – ol, butan – 1 – ol, butan – 2 – ol, ethanol, propan – 1 – ol, methanol
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Boiling point is α Vanderwall forces α Molecular weight.

Q8.

Diborane (B2H6) is one of the following


Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Diborane is said to be electron deficient because boron require 5 electrons to complete its octet. But in this molecule, each boron atom is bonded to 2 terminal hydrogen atoms each. Also, the two boron atoms are held together by two hydrogen atoms as shown below:


Q9. The drug which can act both as an analgesic and antipyretic is
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Asprin can act as both analgesic and antipyretic

Q10. The effective atomic number of Fe in Fe(CO)5is
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

26+2(5)=36
