Questions Related to chemistry

Statement (1): Mixture is a chemical combination of two or more elements.
Statement (2): Properties of the constituents of a mixture remain same.

  1. Statement I is true and Statement II is false

  2. Both statement I and II are true and II is not a correct explanation of statement I

  3. Both statement I and II are false

  4. Statement I is false and Statement II is true

  5. Both statement I and II are true and II is a correct explanation of statement I


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The mixture is a combination of two or more elements in such a way that no chemical reaction occurs. So, a mixture is a physical combination of two or more elements.

Properties of the constituents of a mixture remain same. The mixture can be separated back into its original constituents.
So statement 1 is incorrect and statement 2 is correct.
So D) is the correct answer.

Choose the correct statement from the following.

  1. Liquor ammonia and soda water are examples of liquid-gas type mixtures.

  2. Mixture of coconut oil and water can be separated using separating funnel.

  3. A mixture of iodine and sulphur can be separated using magnetic separation.

  4. A mixture of sand and sawdust can be separated using solvent extraction.


Correct Option: A,B
Explanation:

Liquor ammonia is a concentrated solution of ammonia in water due to which, it forms a liquid-gas mixture with soda water(carbon dioxide gas under pressure)


Since coconut oil and water have different densities, they can be separated from each other by using a separating funnel

Since none among iodine and sulphur have magnetic properties, they cannot be separated using magnetic separation

Both sand and sawdust are highly insoluble in all the solvents and they cannot be separated using solvent extraction method

What type of mixture is steel?

  1. Solid-liquid heterogeneous mixture

  2. Solid-solid heterogeneous mixture

  3. Solid-solid homogeneous mixture

  4. Pure substance


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Steel is alloy of iron and carbon, so it is forming a solid - solid homogeneous mixture.

Mixture can be separated, and kind of separation method depends on kind of:

  1. mixure it is

  2. solution it is

  3. molecule it is

  4. compound it is


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

In chemistry, a mixture is a material system made up of two or more different substances which are mixed but are not combined chemically. A mixture refers to the physical combination of two or more substances in which the identities are retained and are mixed in the form of solutions, suspensions, and colloids.

The individual substances in a mixture can be separated using different methods, depending on the type of mixture. These methods include filtration, evaporation, distillation and chromatography.

A substance formed when two or more elements are mixed together without chemical reaction is known as:

  1. atom

  2. mixure

  3. molecule

  4. compound


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

In chemistry, a mixture is a material system made up of two or more different substances which are mixed but are not combined chemically. A mixture refers to the physical combination of two or more substances in which the identities are retained and are mixed in the form of solutions, suspensions, and colloids.

When a gas dissolves in liquid, there is decrease in volume thus:
  1. increase of pressure will favour the dissolution of gas in liquid

  2. increase of pressure will not favour the dissolution of gas in liquid

  3. increase of pressure has no affect on the dissolution of gas in liquid

  4. increase of temperature will favour the dissolution of gas in liquid


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
When a gas dissolves in liquid, there is decrease in volume thus increase of pressure will favour the dissolution of gas in liquid. Initially total volume decreases, the pressure decreases. Now when pressure is increased, the system will shift in a direction that will decrease the pressure to nullify the effect of increase in pressure. This is through the dissolution of gas in liquid. This is similar to Le-chatellier's principle for chemical equilibrium.
Note:
Decrease of temperature will favour the dissolution of gas in liquid.

We need to separate different components of the mixture:

  1. to obtain pure substance

  2. to separate components for further uses

  3. to remove the impurities

  4. all of these


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Separation of a mixture is done in order to:-

(i) remove impurities.
(ii) get pure substance.
(iii) separate the components of mixture.

Two immiscible liquids can be separated by using: 

  1. evaporation disc

  2. separating funnel

  3. filter funnel

  4. can not be separated


Correct Option: B

Substances are separated, because the :

  1. harmful substance can be removed

  2. non-useful substance can be removed

  3. useful substance, which we require separately

  4. All of these


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Separation of a mixture is done in order to :


(i) remove impurities or harmful substances.


(ii) to get pure substance.

(iii) to separate the components of the mixture and get the useful substance which is required, separately.


Hence the option D is correct.

Which pair of the following substances is said to be isomorphous?

  1. White vitriol and blue vitriol

  2. Epsom salt and Glauber salt

  3. Blue vitriol and Glauber salt

  4. White vitriol and epsom salt


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

White vitriol and blue vitriol are known as isomorphous because they have similar chemical formula and closely similar in shape.
