    Both CO2 and H2 gases are:

    • Heavier than air

    • Colourless

    • Acidic in nature

    • Soluble in water

    Correct Answer
    A. Colourless
    Explanation
    Both CO2 and H2 gases are colourless because they do not have any pigments or dyes that would give them a distinct color. Color is determined by the absorption and reflection of light, and since these gases do not interact with light in a way that produces color, they appear colorless to the human eye.

    The reaction in which two compound exchange their ions to form two new compounds is called:

    • Displacement reaction

    • Combination reaction

    • Double displacement reaction

    • Redox reaction

    Correct Answer
    A. Double displacement reaction
    Explanation
    A double displacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction where two compounds exchange their ions to form two new compounds. In this reaction, the positive ions of one compound combine with the negative ions of the other compound, and vice versa. This results in the formation of two new compounds with different combinations of ions. Double displacement reactions often occur in aqueous solutions and are characterized by the formation of a precipitate, gas, or water.

    Before burning in air, the magnesium ribbon is cleaned by rubbing with a sandpaper to:

    • Make the ribbon surface shinier

    • Remove the layer of magnesium oxide from the ribbon surface

    • Remove the layer of magnesium carbonate from the ribbon surface

    • Remove the moisture from the ribbon surface

    Correct Answer
    A. Remove the layer of magnesium oxide from the ribbon surface
    Explanation
    When magnesium is exposed to air, it rapidly reacts with oxygen to form a layer of magnesium oxide on its surface. This layer of oxide can hinder the combustion process when the ribbon is burned. By rubbing the ribbon with sandpaper, the layer of magnesium oxide is physically removed, exposing a fresh surface of magnesium that can react more readily with oxygen during combustion. This allows for a more efficient and complete burning of the magnesium ribbon.

    It is necessary to balance a chemical equation in order to satisfy the law of:

    • Conservation of motion

    • Conservation of momentum

    • Conservation of energy

    • Conservation of mass

    Correct Answer
    A. Conservation of mass
    Explanation
    When balancing a chemical equation, the number of atoms on both sides of the equation must be equal.
