Multiple choice nanochemistry nanotechnology applied chemistry materials chemistry

Which of the following are the nanomaterials with only one dimension between 1 nm and 100 nm?

  1. Nanolayers

  2. Nanotubes

  3. Nanowires

  4. Nanoparticles
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Nanolayers are the nanomaterials with only one dimension between 1 nm and 100 nm. Nanotubes or nanowires are the nanomaterials with two dimension between 1 nm and 100 nm. Nanoparticles are the nanomaterials with three dimension between 1 nm and 100 nm.

In which of the following type of nano material three dimensions are  outside the nano scale technology deals with using?

  1. One dimensional nano material

  2. Zero dimensional nano material

  3. Two dimensional nano material

  4. Three dimensional nano material
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Three-dimensional nanomaterials (3D) are materials that are not confined to the nanoscale in any dimension. This class can contain bulk powders, dispersions of nanoparticles,bundles of nanowires, and nanotubes as well as multi-nanolayers.
Hence option D is correct.

Which of the following are characteristic properties of nano particles?

  1. More surface area

  2. Quantum effects

  3. Both a and b

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Two principal factors cause the properties of nanomaterials to differ significantly from other materials: increased relative surface area, and quantum effects. These factors can change or enhance properties such as
reactivity, strength and electrical characteristics.
Hence option C is correct.

Multiple choice dyes dyes and pigments chemistry in daily life applied chemistry chemistry

Different dyes are used for dyeing different materials. Which of the following statements is false?

  1. Nylon can be dyed with acid dyes

  2. Cotton can be directly dyed with malachite green

  3. Terylene is mainly dyed with disperse dyes

  4. Polyacrylonitrile can be dyed with basic dyes
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The color of the wool cloth dyed directly by dipping in hot solution of malachite green dye is fast. The color of cotton cloth dyed directly (without using mordant) by dipping in hot solution malachite green is not fast to washing and is of low intensity.

Statement: Tannic acid is a Mordant.

State whether the given statement is true or false.

  1. True

  2. False
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

 Tannic acid is used to mordant cellulose fibres and fabrics before the alum mordant. Many dyestuffs contain tannin (black oak, pomegranate, cutch, fustic, etc) and do not need an additional tannin mordant. Tannins can be clear or they can add colour to the fibre


Hence, the correct option is $true$

Multiple choice dyes dyes and pigments chemistry in daily life applied chemistry chemistry

Example of basic dye is:

  1. alizarin

  2. indigo

  3. martius yellow

  4. malachite green
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Basic dye is a stain that is cationic (+ve charged) and so will react with material that is (-ve) negatively charged. Alizarin prominent red dye is a basic dye. Some other examples of basic dyes are methylene blue, crystal violet, basic fuchsin safranin.

 Which of these statements is true about the colorfastness of dyes?

  1. If a dye is fast on one type of fiber it will be fast on all kind of fabrics

  2. If a dye is fast to light, it will also be fast to washing

  3. There are no standardized methods of testing colorfastness for dyes

  4. Wool is the most easily dyed fiber and the resulting color will change the least
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

 Colour fastness is a professional word used in theprocess of dyeing for textile materials that characterize a material's color resistance to fading or running. The term is generally used for clothes. In different veryties of cloth, wool is the most easily dyed fiber and the resulting color will change the least.

Alizarin belongs to the class of:

  1. vat dyes

  2. mordant dyes

  3. substantive dyes

  4. reactive dyes
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
Alizarin belongs to the mordant type of dyes. It is a red dye originally obtained from the root of the common madder plant, Rubia tinctorum, in which it occurs combined with the sugars xylose and glucose.

It is mainly used in biological research. It stains free calcium and certain calcium compounds with a red or light purple color.

If a solid is dispersed in a liquid, the colloid is known as:

  1. gel

  2. sol

  3. emulsion

  4. none of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Sol is a colloidal suspension with solid particles as dispersed phase dissolve in a liquid i.e dispersion medium.

Gel are a dispersion of molecules of a liquid within a solid in which liquid particles are dispersed in the solid medium.
An emulsion is a mixture of two or more liquids that are normally immiscible.
Hence answer is option B
