Q.1MCQmediumImportantTypes of reactions

Heating of lead nitrate crystals that give brown fumes is an example of:

  • A. Combination
  • B. Displacement
  • C. Thermal decomposition
  • D. Double displacement
View the correct answer

Correct option: C — Thermal decomposition

Heat splits lead nitrate into oxide, nitrogen dioxide and oxygen — thermal decomposition.

Q.2MCQmediumImportantTypes of reactions

When zinc is dipped in copper sulphate solution, copper metal is deposited. This is:

  • A. Combination
  • B. Displacement
  • C. Redox only, not displacement
  • D. Neutralisation
View the correct answer

Correct option: B — Displacement

More reactive zinc displaces copper from CuSO₄. It is also a redox change.

Q.3MCQmediumImportantOxidation and reduction

In 2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO, magnesium is:

  • A. Reduced
  • B. Oxidised
  • C. Neither oxidised nor reduced
  • D. Precipitated
View the correct answer

Correct option: B — Oxidised

Magnesium gains oxygen (and loses electrons) so it is oxidised.

Q.4MCQmediumBalancing equations

The balanced form of H₂ + O₂ → H₂O is:

  • A. H₂ + O₂ → H₂O
  • B. 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
  • C. H₂ + 2O₂ → H₂O
  • D. 2H₂ + 2O₂ → H₂O
View the correct answer

Correct option: B — 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O

Two H₂ molecules need one O₂ to make two water molecules.

Q.5MCQmediumImportant

The pH of a neutral solution at 25 °C is:

  • A. 0
  • B. 7
  • C. 14
  • D. 1
View the correct answer

Correct option: B — 7

pH 7 is neutral at 25 °C; below 7 acidic, above 7 basic.
