An aqueous solution turns red litmus solution blue. Excess addition of which of the following solution would reverse the change?
(a) Baking powder
(b) Lime
(c) Ammonium hydroxide solution
(d) Hydrochloric acid
Answer: (d)
Since, the aqueous solution turns red litmus solution blue. So, it is a basic compound. An acid solution (HCl) would reverse the change. That is HCl would turn blue litmus solution to red

Question:3

During the preparation of hydrogen chloride gas on a humid day, the gas is usually passed through the guard tube containing calcium chloride. The role of calcium chloride taken in the guard tube is to
(a) absorb the evolved gas
(b) moisten the gas
(c) absorb moisture from the gas
(d) absorb Cl^{-} ions from the evolved gas
Answer:(c)
The role of calcium chloride \left ( CaCl_{2} \right ) is to absorb moisture from the gas. as calcium chloride is a good dehydrating agent.

Question:4

Which of the following salts does not contain water of crystallisation?
(a) Blue vitriol
(b) Baking soda
(c) Washing soda
(d) Gypsum
Answer: (b)
Baking soda is NaHCO_{3} (sodium hydrogen carbonate).
blue vitriol is CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O
washing soda is Na_{2}CO_{3}.10H_{2}O
Gypsum is CuSO_{4}.2H_{2}O
The water molecules which form part of the structure of a crystal (of a salt) are called water of crystallisation. The salts which contain water of crystallisation are called hydrated salts. So, baking powder does not contain water of crystallisation.

Question:5

Sodium carbonate is a basic salt because it is a salt of
(a) strong acid and strong base
(b) weak acid and weak base
(c) strong acid and weak base
(d) weak acid and strong base

Answer: (d)
Sodium carbonate (Na_{2}CO_{3}) is the salt of weak acid carbonic acid (H_{2}CO_{3}) and a strong base sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
2NaOH+H_{2}CO_{3}\rightarrow Na_{2}CO_{3}+2H_{2}O
The salts of weak acids and strong bases give basic solutions (or alkaline solutions) having pH more than 7.

Question:6

Calcium phosphate is present in tooth enamel. Its nature is
(a) basic
(b) acidic
(c) neutral
(d) amphoteric

Answer: (a)
3Ca(OH)_{2}+2H_{3}PO_{4}\rightarrow Ca_{3}\left ( PO_{4} \right )_{2}+6H_{2}O
Calcium phosphate Ca_{3}\left ( PO_{4} \right )_{2} is basic salt, as it is a salt of weak acid (phosphoric acid) and slightly stronger base (calcium hydroxide). Also, when pH of our mouth falls below 5.5 due to eating of sweets etc., i.e., mouth is acidic, the dissolution of enamel (calcium phosphate) starts which shows that calcium phosphate is basic in nature

Question:7

A sample of soil is mixed with water and allowed to settle. The clear supernatant solution turns the pH paper yellowish-orange. Which of the following would change the colour of this pH paper to greenish-blue?
(a) Lemon juice
(b) Vinegar
(c) Common salt
(d) An antacid

Answer: (d)
As pH paper turns greenish blue for weakly basic compound and antacids contain weak base like Mg(OH)_{2}. So, an antacid would change the colour of this pH paper to greenish-blue.

Question:8

Which of the following gives the correct increasing order of acidic strength?
(a) Water <Acetic acid <Hydrochloric acid
(b) Water <Hydrochloric acid <Acetic acid
(c) Acetic acid <Water <Hydrochloric acid
(d) Hydrochloric acid <Water <Acetic acid
Answer: (a)
Hydrochloric acid is a mineral acid and ionises completely in water, that's why it is a strong acid.
Acetic acid is an organic acid and ionises only partially in water, hence, it is a weak acid. Water is neutral .
Thus, the order of acidity is
water < acetic acid < hydrochloric acid.

Question:9

If a few drops of a concentrated acid accidentally spills over the hand of a student, what should be done?
(a) Wash the hand with saline solution
(b) Wash the hand immediately with plenty of water and apply a paste of sodium hydrogencarbonate
(c) After washing with plenty of water apply solution of sodium hydroxide on the hand
(d) Neutralise the acid with a strong alkali
Answer: (b)
Wash the hand immediately with plenty of water to wash away most of the acid and then apply a paste of baking soda (NaHCO_{3}) to neutralise the little acid left. Here a strong base cannot be used to neutralise the acid due to its corrosive nature.

Question:10

Question:15

The pH of the gastric juices released during digestion is
(a) less than 7
(b) more than 7
(c) equal to 7
(d) equal to 0
Answer: (a)
The proteins inside the mouth establish an acidic environment. Stomach additionally secretes hydrochloric acid (pH under 7) establishing an acidic climate.
The pH of the gastric juices in the stomach is in the range of 2-5 which is somewhat acidic in nature. The acidic climate of the stomach helps the protein breaking catalysts to separate proteins without any problem. Diet consumption with a greater amount of antacid nourishments is prescribed to keep an impartial climate inside the stomach.
Our stomach produces hydrochloric acid (of pH about 1.4).

Question:16

Which of the following phenomena occur, when a small amount of acid is added to water?

Question:43

In the following schematic diagram for the preparation of hydrogen gas as shown in Figure 2.3, what would happen if following changes are made?

(a) In place of zinc granules, same amount of zinc dust is taken in the test tube
(b) Instead of dilute sulphuric acid, dilute hydrochloric acid is taken
(c) In place of zinc, copper turnings are taken
(d) Sodium hydroxide is taken in place of dilute sulphuric acid and the tube is heated.

Answer:
(a) If same amount of zinc dust is taken in the test tube then the reaction will be comparatively faster and hydrogen gas will evolve with greater speed. It is because zinc dust has larger surface area than zinc granules.
(b) With dilute hydrochloric acid, almost same amount of gas is evolved.
(c) With copper turnings, hydrogen gas will not evolve because copper is less reactive, so, it does no react with dil. H_{2}SO_{4} or dil. HCl. Hence, no reaction will take place.
(d) Zinc also react with NaOH. So, if sodium hydroxide is taken, then hydrogen gas will be evolved.
Zn+2NaOH\rightarrow Na_{2}ZnO_{2}+H_{2}(g)

Question:44

For making cake, baking powder is taken. If at home your mother uses baking soda instead of baking powder in cake,
(a) how will it affect the taste of the cake and why?
(b) how can baking soda be converted into baking powder?
(c) what is the role of tartaric acid added to baking soda?

Answer:
(a) The advantage of using baking powder is that tartaric acid present in baking powder reacts with sodium carbonate \left ( Na_{2} CO_{3}\right ) produced during decomposition of NaHCO_{3} and neutralises it. If only sodium hydrogen carbonate (baking soda) is used in making cake, then sodium carbonate formed from it by the action of heat (during baking) will give a bitter taste to cake.
(b) By adding tartaric acid to baking soda we can form baking powder.
(c) Tartaric acid neutralises the sodium carbonate formed during decomposition of NaHCO_{3} hence, making the cake tasty and not bitter in taste.

Question:45

A metal carbonate X on reacting with an acid gives a gas which when passed through a solution Y gives the carbonate back. On the other hand, a gas G that is obtained at anode during electrolysis of brine is passed on dry Y, it gives a compound Z, used for disinfecting drinking water. Identity X, Y, G and Z.

Answer:
X is calcium carbonate and the gas evolved is carbon dioxide, when calcium carbonate reacts with acid
CaCO_{3}+Dil.2HCl\rightarrow CaCl_{2}+H_{2}O+CO_{2}
Solution Y is lime water Ca\left ( OH \right )_{2} because, when CO_{2} is passed through it, it gives the carbonate back as shown by the given equation.
Ca\left ( OH \right )_{2}+CO_{2}\rightarrow CaCO_{3}+H_{2}O
The gas evolved at anode during electrolysis of brine is chlorine (G)
Electrolysis 2NaCl+2H_{2}O\rightarrow 2NaOH+Cl_{2}(g)+H_{2}(g)
When chlorine gas is passed through dry Ca(OH)_{2}(Y), it produces bleaching powder (Z), used for disinfecting drinking water.
Ca(OH)_{2}+Cl_{2}\rightarrow CaOCl_{2}+H_{2}O
Hence, Z is calcium oxy-chloride \left ( CaOCl_{2} \right ) or bleaching powder.

Question:46

Sodium hydroxide \left ( NaOH \right ) is commonly used base and is hygroscopic (silica gel used in packing is also hygroscopic which protects things from moisture), that is, it absorbs
moisture from the atmosphere and becomes sticky.
Thus, base B is NaOH (sodium hydroxide) It is also a by-product of chlor-alkali process.
The acidic oxide reacts with base to give salt and water.
If CO_{2} is the acidic oxide taken, then the following reaction takes place with ‘B'.

Question:47

A sulphate salt of Group 2 element of the Periodic Table is a white, soft substance, which can be moulded into different shapes by making its dough. When this compound is left in open for some time, it becomes a solid mass and cannot be used for moulding purposes. Identify the sulphate salt and why does it show such a behaviour? Give the reaction involved.
Answer:
Calcium belongs to group 2. Calcium sulphate is a white soft substance.
The sulphate salt which is used for making different shapes is plaster of Paris. Its chemical name is calcium sulphate hemihydrate \left ( CaSO_{4}.\frac{1}{2}H_{2}O \right ) . The two formula units of CaSO_{4} share one molecule of water. As a result, it is soft. When it is left open for some time, it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and forms gypsum which is a hard solid mass.
CaSO_{4}.\frac{1}{2}H_{2}O+1\frac{1}{2}H_{2}O\rightarrow CaSO_{4}.2H_{2}O
plaster of paris Gypsum
Plaster of Paris shows such behavior because of presence half water molecule as water of crystallization. When it is left open for some time, it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and forms gypsum, which is a hard solid mass.
So, gypsum sets as a hard solid mass and cannot be used for moulding purposes.

Question:48

Identify the compound X on the basis of the reactions given below. Also, write the name and chemical formulae of A, B and C.

Answer:

Compound X is NaOH (sodium hydroxide).
2NaOH+Zn\rightarrow Na_{2}ZnO_{2}+H_{2}(g)
NaOH+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+H_{2}O
NaOH+CH_{3}COOH\rightarrow CH_{3}COONa+H_{2}O
X is sodium hydroxide, A is sodium zincate, B is sodium chloride and C is sodium acetate.
