Chemistry MCQs

Notes:
Bitumen is a mixture of organic liquids that are highly viscous, black, sticky, soluble in carbon disulfide and composed of highly condensed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

Notes:
Fluorine is most active because it has the highest electronegativity.

Notes:
Zinc sulfate is the inorganic compound with the formula ZnSO4 and historically known as “white vitriol” Zinc sulfate is an inorganic compound and dietary supplement.

Notes:
Silver is the metal with the highest electrical and thermal conductivity. It has only one valence electron, which can move around with little resistance. This makes silver a great conductor of electricity and heat.
Silver’s thermal conductivity is 430 wK/m, which is higher than copper (400 wK/m), aluminum (235 wK/m), and brass (109 wK/m).
Silver’s low contact wear resistance and excellent optical reflectivity make it ideal for coating contacts, mirrors, and conductors in telecom applications.
Impurities can decrease a conductor’s conductivity. For example, sterling silver is not as good of a conductor as pure silver. Oxidized silver is not as good a conductor as untarnished silver.

Notes:
Ethanethiol or stench, is a organosulfur compound and is used to add to the otherwise odorless gaseous products such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) to help warn of gas leaks.

Notes:
Platinum is a naturally white metal. It doses not need to be alloyed for color. Due to its appearance as white, it is commonly known as White Gold.

Notes:
Avogadro’s hypothesis was proposed by Amedeo Avogadro in 1811. It states that equal volumes of all gases, at the same temperature and pressure, contain equal numbers of molecules. Avogadro’s number is defined as 6.022×10^23 molecules per mole. This hypothesis was crucial for determining molecular weights and led to the development of the ideal gas law.

Notes:
A baby diaper can absorb the maximum quantity of distilled water as it lacks impurities such as minerals and ions that are present in other type of water. The absorbent materials in diapers, often polymers called sodium polyacrylate, can hold up to 30 times their weight in distilled water, making them highly efficient.

Notes:
Ilmenite is a titanium-iron oxide mineral with the formula FeTiO3. India holds about 37% of global ilmenite reserves, primarily along the peninsular coastal regions. Ilmenite is the primary source of titanium, used in aerospace, chemical, and medical industries. The Geological Survey of India ranks ilmenite among the most abundant heavy minerals in Indian beach placers. Titanium extraction from ilmenite is commercially viable.

Notes:
In India, the Double Sulphitation is the most commonly used method for refining of sugar. Also, it is the cheapest process of refining sugar as compared to other available process.
