In the reaction $N _{2}+3H _{2}\rightarrow 2NH _{3} $, the ratio by volume of $N _{2},\ H _{2} :$ and$: NH _{3}$ is $1 : 3 : 2$. 


This illustrates the law of:

  1. definite proportion

  2. multiple proportion

  3. reciprocal proportion

  4. gaseous volumes


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

In the reaction, $N _{2}+3H _{2}\rightarrow 2NH _{3} $, the ratio by volume of $N _{2},\ H _{2} $ and $ NH _{3}$ is $1 : 3 : 2$. This illustrates the law of Gaseous volumes or Gay Lussac's law of combining volumes of gases.

According to this law, when gases react together to produce gaseous products, the volume of reactants and products bear a simple whole-number ratio with each other, provided volumes are measured at the same temperature and pressure.

So, the correct option is $D$.

To use Gay-Lussac's Law, which of the following needs to remain constant?

  1. Volume and the number of moles of a gas

  2. Pressure and temperature

  3. Temperature and the number of moles of a gas

  4. Pressure and the number of moles of a gas

  5. Temperature and volume


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$P \propto T $
At constant volume and number of moles of a gas, the pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

Hence, option $A$ is correct.

A closed vessel contains equal number of nitrogen and oxygen molecules at a pressure of $p\ mm$. If nitrogen is removed from the system then the pressure will be:

  1. $p$

  2. $2p$

  3. $p/2$

  4. $p^2$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
At constant $V, P\propto n$

$\therefore$ if no. of moles is halved then pressure will also reduce to $p/2$.

Option C is correct.

When soil pH is in the range 6 to 8, the soil fertility is diminished.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

It is not true that soil $pH$ is in the range $6$ to $8$, the soil fertility is diminished

Which of the following represents saline Hydrydes?

  1. $KH,\,Ca{H _2},\,Ba{H _2}$

  2. $NaH,Si{H _4},KH$

  3. $N{H _3},{B _2}{H _6}\,Al{H _3}$

  4. $N{H _3},{H _2}O,HF$


Correct Option: B

$Ca{H _2}$ is an example of :

  1. Ionic hydride

  2. Covelent hydride

  3. Metallic hydride

  4. Polymeric hydride


Correct Option: A

Which of the following pair behaves strong and weak base hydride :


$NH _3, PH _3, AsH _3, SbH _3, BiH _3$

  1. $NH _3, PH _3$

  2. $NH _3, BiH _3$

  3. $PH _3, BiH _3$

  4. $BiH _3, AsH _3$


Correct Option: A

Ionic hydrides are usually:

  1. good electrical conductors when solid

  2. easily reduced

  3. good reducing agents

  4. liquid at room temperature


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Ionic hydrides are usually good reducing agents. 

$2CO+NaH \rightarrow HCOONa+C$ 
$PbSO _4+2CaH _2 \rightarrow PbS + 2Ca(OH) _2$ 
$Fe _3O _4 + NaH \rightarrow 3Fe +4 NaOH$

The stability of hydrogen halides is in the order of:

  1. $HF>HI>HBr>HCl$

  2. $HI>HBr>HCl>HF$

  3. $HF>HCl>HBr>HI$

  4. $HCl>HBr>HI>HF$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Due to large difference in electronegativity of upper halogens and hydrogen, they are more stable than lower hydrogen halide.
$\therefore $ Stability order: $HF>HCl>HBr>HI$.
