Multiple choice chemistry allotropy of carbon preparation, properties and uses of baking soda chemical from common salt compounds of carbon

Which of the following is used as fire extinguisher ?

  1. Sodium carbonate

  2. Sodium bicarbonate

  3. Sodium chloride

  4. Ammonium chloride

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Sodium bicarbonate, also called sodium hydrogen carbonate, or bicarbonate of soda,$NaHCO _3$, is a source of carbon dioxide and so is used as an ingredient in baking powders, in effervescent salts and beverages, and as the main constituent of dry-chemical fire extinguishers.

Soda acid for extinguisher contains:

  1. sodium carbonate and nitric acid

  2. sodium hydrogen carbonate and sulphuric acid

  3. sodium carbonate and carbonic acid

  4. sodium chloride and sulphuric acid

 Select the correct choice:

  1. $KHCO _3$ is less soluble in water than $NaHCO _3$.
  2. $CaC _2O _4$ is soluble in water and alkalies.
  3. $Ca(HCO _3) _2$ an obtained in solid state.
  4. $BeF _2$ is water soluble but $CaF _2$ is water insoluble.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
using Fazan's rule we can say that $KHCO _3$ is less soluble in water than $NaHCO _3$

Calcium oxalate is an ionic compound with the chemical formula $CaC _2O _4$ and a salt of oxalic acid. It's highly insoluble and dissolves poorly in water. One method for dissolving calcium oxalate in the lab is the application of a compound called ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid or EDTA. EDTA is highly effective at binding the calcium ions and thereby decreasing the concentration of calcium in solution, shifting the reaction equilibrium so that more calcium oxalate will dissolve.

$NaHCO _3$ is stable to heat and normal temperature hence isolated as a solid.

However, $Ca(HCO _3) _2$ is not stable at these temperatures and hence is isolated from water, also bicarbonates of alkaline earth metals are reactive with atmospheric $CO _2$ leading to formation of  $CaCO _3$.

Which salt can furnish $H^{+}$ in its aqueous solution?

  1. $NaH _{2}PO _{2}$
  2. $Na _{2}HPO _{3}$
  3. $Na _{2}HPO _{4}$
  4. all of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

  • Disodium hydrogenphosphite$ ( Na _2HPO _3)$ is a salt of phosphorus acid $( H _3PO _3)$, which is a dibasic acid. A dibasic acid has only two acidic or replaceable hydrogen atoms in its molecule. In $( H _3PO _3)$, the third hydrogen is directly bonded to phosphorus and so it is non-acidic.
  • $  Na _2HPO _3$ is formed when the two acidic hydrogens are replaced by sodium. In other words, this salt is the product of complete neutralisation of phosphoric acid by sodium hydroxide. It does not have any acidic hydrogen. So, it can furnish any $H^+$ in its aqueous solution.

Sodium bicarbonate can react with:

  1. $Na _{2}CO _{3}$
  2. $NaOH$
  3. $NaH$
  4. $HCl$

D Correct answer
Explanation

Sodium bicarbonate mixed with water can be used as an antacid to treat acid indigestion and heartburn. Its reaction with stomach acid produces salt, water, and carbon dioxide:

Multiple choice chemistry substances in common use chemical from common salt compounds of carbon some useful compounds in everyday life

The solution of bleaching powder in water is always a clear solution.

  1. True

  2. False

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Bleaching powder is known as calcium hypochlorite. It is marketed as bleach powder. It is white solid although commercial samples appear yellow. It is not highly soluble in water and is used in soft to medium hard water. It has two forms dry and hydrated.

Bleaching powder is effective with cold water, but ineffective with hot water. This is because of:

  1. oxidation of chloride radical

  2. reduction of chloride radical

  3. reduction of hypochlorite radical

  4. hydrolysis of hypochlorite radical

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Bleaching action takes place due to the hypochlorite radical [$ClO^{-}$].

But when used in hot water, hot water favours reduction of the hypochlorite radical as a result of which bleaching powder is ineffective with hot water.
Generally, Bleaching powder is used as a disinfectant widely.
