Answers

1. B
1 mol of Mg(NO3)2 contains 1 mol of Mg2+ ions (cations) and 2 mol of NO3 ions (anions).

2. D
Anodization cannot enhance the strength of aluminium. During anodization, the aluminium on
the surface of the article becomes aluminium oxide.
2Al(s) + 3H2O(l)  Al2O3(s) + 3H2(g)
The protective oxide layer is thickened and aluminium becomes more corrosion resistant.

3. D
Copper displaces silver from silver nitrate solution. It dissolves to form blue Cu2+(aq) ions.

4. D
Percentage by mass of Fe in FeCl2 = × 100% = 44.0%

Percentage by mass of Fe in FeSO4 = × 100% = 36.7%

Percentage by mass of Fe in Fe(NO3)3 = × 100% = 23.1%

Percentage by mass of Fe in Fe2O3 = × 100% = 69.9%

5. A
Both water and oxygen are necessary for rusting to occur.
In tube X, there is no oxygen inside and rusting does not occur. Therefore, the water level
remains unchanged.
In tube Y, the iron would rust because both water and oxygen are present. When iron rusts,
oxygen in air is consumed. Hence, the water level rises.

6. B
The mass of the content in the crucible increases since copper reacts with oxygen to form
copper(II) oxide.
2Cu(s) + O2(g)  2CuO(s)

7. C
No. of moles of Cu required = mol = 0.024 mol

No. of moles of CuFeS2 required = 0.024 mol

8. A
Metal P is potassium, metal R is magnesium, metal S is sodium and metal Q is the least reactive
metal which has no reaction with air.

9. C
Ca(s) + 2H2O(l)  Ca(OH)2(aq) + H2(g)
No. of moles of Ca = mol = 0.10 mol

From the equation, mole ratio of Ca : H2 is 1 : 1.

∴no. of moles of H2 produced = 0.10 mol

10. C
Iron object Method to prevent rusting
Food can Tin-plating
Water bucket Galvanizing
Water tap Electroplating
Coat hanger Coating with plastic

11. B
2PbO(s) + C(s)  2Pb(s) + CO2(g)
No. of moles of PbO = mol = 0.05 mol

No. of moles of C = mol = 0.03 mol

From the equation, mole ratio of PbO : C is 2 : 1.

∴0.05 mol of PbO would react with 0.025 mol of C.
∴C is in excess and PbO is the limiting reactant.
From the equation, mole ratio of PbO : Pb is 1 : 1.
∴theoretical yield of Pb = 0.05 × 207.2 g = 10.36 g
Percentage yield of Pb = × 100% = 60.0%

12. B
Metal X is more reactive than metal Z because X can displace Z from its solution.
Metal Z is more reactive than metal Y because Z can displace Y from its solution.

13. A
Silver oxide (black in colour) decomposes to silver and oxygen on strong heating. Oxygen does
not turn limewater milky.

14. B
(1): 2K(s) + 2H2O(l)  2KOH(aq) + H2(g)
(2): Copper has no reaction with dilute sulphuric acid.
(3): Mg(s) + H2O(g)  MgO(s) + H2(g)

15. B
Sodium burns with a golden yellow flame. The resultant solution is alkaline because sodium
hydroxide solution is produced.
2Na(s) + 2H2O(l)  2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

16. C
Tin is less reactive than iron. If the tin coating is scratched, iron will lose electrons more readily
and so it will rust more quickly than expected.

17. D
Calcium is extracted by electrolysis of its molten ore.

18. A
Strontium is more reactive than calcium. Like calcium, strontium sinks to the bottom of water.
Solid strontium chloride cannot conduct electricity as its ions are not mobile. Thus, it cannot be
electrolysed.

19. C
Iron cannot be extracted by heating iron(III) oxide alone.

20. C
X is less reactive than Z because X can be extracted by heating its oxide alone while Z cannot. X
is less reactive than Y because X cannot react with water while Y can. Therefore, X must be the
least reactive metal among the three metals. It was discovered earlier than Y and Z.
