What does happens when water is condensed into ice ?
- A.
Heat is absorbed
- B.
Heat is released
- C.
Quantity of heat remains unchanged
- D.
First Heat Absorbed and then release after equilibrium
Correct Answer
A. Heat is absorbedExplanation
When water is condensed into ice, heat is absorbed. This is because the process of condensation involves the conversion of water vapor (a gas) into ice (a solid), which requires the absorption of heat energy. As the water molecules lose energy, they slow down and come closer together, forming a solid structure. Therefore, the correct answer is that heat is absorbed during the condensation of water into ice.Rate this question:

Which of the following gases is not a noble gas ?
- A.
Zenon
- B.
Argon
- C.
Helium
- D.
Chlorine
Correct Answer
D. ChlorineExplanation
Chlorine is not a noble gas because it does not have a full octet of electrons in its outermost energy level. Noble gases, such as Xenon, Argon, and Helium, have a full octet and are chemically stable. Chlorine, on the other hand, has seven valence electrons and tends to gain one electron to achieve stability. Therefore, it is not considered a noble gas.Rate this question:

Which of the following diffuses most quickly ?
- A.
Solid
- B.
Gas
- C.
Liquid
- D.
Gel
Correct Answer
B. GasExplanation
Gas diffuses most quickly because its particles are in constant random motion and have high kinetic energy. This allows them to move freely and spread out rapidly, filling any available space. In contrast, solids have tightly packed particles that can only vibrate in place, liquids have particles that move more slowly and are less free to move, and gels have a network structure that restricts the movement of their particles. Therefore, gas molecules can travel the farthest and fastest, making gas the correct answer.Rate this question:

Which temperature in Celsius scale is equal to 300 K ?
- A.
30°C
- B.
27°C
- C.
300°C
- D.
0°C
Correct Answer
B. 27°CExplanation
300 K is equal to 27°C because the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale have the same size of degree. The only difference is that the Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero (0 K) while the Celsius scale starts at the freezing point of water (0°C). To convert from Kelvin to Celsius, we simply subtract 273. So, 300 K - 273 = 27°C.Rate this question:

- A.
Soft ice
- B.
Dry ice
- C.
White ice
- D.
None of these
Correct Answer
B. Dry iceExplanation
Dry ice is the correct term for solid carbon dioxide. It is called "dry" because it does not melt into a liquid form when heated, but instead sublimates directly into a gas. This term distinguishes it from regular ice, which is made of water and melts into a liquid when heated. The term "soft ice" and "white ice" are not accurate descriptions for solid carbon dioxide.Rate this question:

Which number is missing ? 45389, ?, 453, 34
- A.
34780
- B.
8354
- C.
4892
- D.
3478
Correct Answer
B. 8354Explanation
In the given sequence, the pattern seems to be that each number is obtained by subtracting the previous number from the next number. For example, 45389 - ? = 453, and 453 - ? = 34. Therefore, to find the missing number, we need to subtract 34 from 453, which gives us 419. However, this number is not one of the options provided. Therefore, the correct answer must be the only option that follows the pattern of subtracting the previous number from the next number. Among the options given, only 8354 satisfies this pattern.Rate this question:
