Which of the following is a merit of Dalton's atomic theory?

  1. Laws of chemical combination

  2. Distinction between the fundamental particle of an element (atom) and that of a compound (molecule)

  3. Both A and B

  4. None of the above

C Correct answer
Explanation

 Dalton's theory explains the laws of chemical combination.  Dalton was the first person to recognize a workable difference between the fundamental particle of an element (atom) and that of a compound (molecule).

E Correct answer
Explanation

An element can not be further broken down by chemical means.


An element is defined as a substance that cannot be decomposed by a simple chemical process into two or more different substances. 

Some of the examples of elements are gold, silver copper, carbon, sulphur and phosphorous.

Hence option E is correct.

Multiple choice chemistry inside the atom history of atomic model atomic theory of dalton daltons atomic theory

The nucleus of the atom $\left( Z>1 \right) $ consists of:

  1. Proton and neutron.

  2. Proton and electron.

  3. Neutron and electron.

  4. Proton, neutron and electrons
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The atomic nucleus is the central area of the atom. It is composed of two kinds of subatomic particles: protons and neutrons.The protons and neutrons held together to form the dense area of the nucleus.

For atoms havng $Z>1$ nucleus contains protons and neutrons.

Multiple choice pseudo first order reaction order of reactions chemical kinetics electrochemistry and chemical kinetics chemistry

In pseudo unimolecule reactions:

  1. both the reactants are present in low concentration

  2. Both the reactants are present in same concentration

  3. One of the reactant is present in excess

  4. One of the reactant is non-reactive
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Pseudo Unimolecular Reaction. The reactions having molecularity two but the order of reaction is one is called pseudo unimolecular reactions,in such type of reactions, one reagent is take in the excess amount so that the disappearance of that reagent is negligible and it does not determine the rate of reaction.

Example:
  • Hydrolysis of ester$CH _3COOC _2H _5$,
  • Hydrolysis of sucrose.

Multiple choice pseudo first order reaction order of reactions chemical kinetics electrochemistry and chemical kinetics chemistry

The value of rate of a pseudo first order reaction depends upon:

  1. the concentration of both the reactants present in the reaction

  2. the concentration of the reactant present in small amount

  3. the concentration of the reactant present in excess
  4. the value of $\Delta H$ of the reaction
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

$CH _3COOC _2H _5 + H _2O \rightarrow CH _3COOH + CH _3OH$
          0.01                    10                   0                      0

            0                      9.99              0.01               0.01 

The above reaction is a Pseudo first order reaction. As it can be seen from the above reaction that the concentration of water is not changing much. Thus the rate of the reaction is not much affacted by the change in concentration of  water. However rate of the reaction get significantly affacted by the concentration gradient of ethyl acetate. Hence, the rate of Pseudo first order reaction depends upon the concentration of the reactant present in small amount.

Option B is correct.

         

Multiple choice pseudo first order reaction order of reactions chemical kinetics electrochemistry and chemical kinetics chemistry

The value of rate constant of a pseudo first order reaction ________.

  1. depends on the concentration of reactants present in small amount

  2. depends on the concentration of reactants present in excess

  3. is independent of the concentration of reactants

  4. depends only on temperature
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Pseudo first-order reaction is not the first-order reaction by nature. It is made the first order by adding something in excess.so, the rate constant depends on the concentration of reactants present in excess.
