  1. Q1.Which is the most electronegative element?

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: A — Fluorine

    Fluorine has the highest electronegativity (3.98 on the Pauling scale).

  2. Q2.8 g of NaOH (molar mass 40) is dissolved to make 500 mL of solution. Find the molarity.

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: A — 0.4 M

    Moles = 8/40 = 0.2; molarity = moles ÷ litres = 0.2 ÷ 0.5 = 0.4 M.

  3. Q3.The noble gas used in advertising signs that glows red-orange is:

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: A — Neon

    Neon glows red-orange in discharge tubes.

  4. Q4.90 g of glucose (molar mass 180) is dissolved to make 500 mL of solution. Find the molarity.

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: B — 1 M

    Moles = 90/180 = 0.5; molarity = moles ÷ litres = 0.5 ÷ 0.5 = 1 M.

  5. Q5.Which gas is produced when zinc reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid?

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: A — Hydrogen

    Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂.

  6. Q6.What is the mass of 3 mol of methane (CH₄)? (Molar mass 16 g/mol)

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: B — 48 g

    Mass = moles × molar mass = 3 × 16 g/mol = 48 g.

  7. Q7.The periodic table is arranged in order of increasing:

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: D — Atomic number

    The modern periodic table orders elements by atomic number.

  8. Q8.8 g of HCl (molar mass 36.5) is dissolved to make 2000 mL of solution. Find the molarity.

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: B — 0.11 M

    Moles = 8/36.5 = 0.219; molarity = moles ÷ litres = 0.219 ÷ 2 = 0.11 M.

  9. Q9.Isotopes of an element have the same number of:

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: B — Protons

    Isotopes share the proton number but differ in neutrons.

  10. Q10.What is the mass of 1 mol of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃)? (Molar mass 100 g/mol)

    Show answer & explanation

    Answer: A — 100 g

    Mass = moles × molar mass = 1 × 100 g/mol = 100 g.
