C. CuSO4
D. AlCl3
E. CaSO4
10.Which of the following does not contain aluminum as a compound ?
A. Over head cables
B. Duralumin
C. Container for caustic soda
D. Container for nitric soda ✔️
11.The approximate volume of air containing 10cm³ of oxygen is ?
A. 20cm³
B. 25cm³
C. 50cm³ ✔️
D. 100cm³
E. 10cm³
SOLUTION : 1 volume of oxygen = 2 × 10
Volume of air = 100 × 10
100 × 10 / 20 = 50 cm³
12.Which of the following sulphides is insoluble In dilute Hcl?
A. Na²S
B. ZnS
C. CuS. ✔️
D. FeS
E. PbS
13.The characteristic reaction of carbonyl compounds is

B. Elimination
C. Addition ✔️
D. Saponification
E. Fermentation
14.An example of polysaccharide is
A. -dextrose
B. Maltose
C. Glucose
D. Starch ✔️
E. Fructose
15.The shape of ammonia molecule is
A. Trigonal planar ✔️
B. Octahedral

16.What mass of water is produced when 8.0g of hydrogen reacts with excess oxygen ? [H=1 , O = 16 ]
A. 36.0g
B. 8.0g
C. 72.0g ✔️
D. 16.0g
E. 18.0g
SOLUTION : 2H² + O² ----------> 2H²O
From the equation
4g of Hydrogen produces 36g of water
8g of Hydrogen will produce Xg of water ( H20 )
>> 4g = 36g
8g = Xg. ( Cross multiply )
36 × 8 / 4. = 72g of H²O
17.What volume of oxygen is produced from the decomposition of 2moles of KClO3 at S.T.P ?
A. 22.4dm³
B. 33.6dm³
C. 44.8dm³
D. 67.2dm³ ✔️
E. 77.8dm³
SOLUTION : 1 MOLES OF OXYGEN OCCUPIED 22.4dm³
3MOLES OF OXYGEN OCCUPIED ( 3 × 22.4 )
= 67.2 DM
