View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
FeCr2O4\mathrm{FeC}{\mathrm{r}_2}{\mathrm{O}_4} (Chromite)
Option C (FeCr2O4\mathrm{FeC}{\mathrm{r}_2}{\mathrm{O}_4} (Chromite)) is correct because chromite ore (FeCr2O4\mathrm{FeC}{\mathrm{r}_2}{\mathrm{O}_4}) is the primary starting material for the industrial preparation of potassium dichromate.
395 Medium

Understanding +4 | -1
Transition elements exhibit variable oxidation states in their compounds due to
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Very small energy difference between (n−1)d(n-1) d and nsns orbitals
Option B is correct because the small energy difference between (n-1)d and ns orbitals allows for variable oxidation states as both can participate in bonding.

Copper sulphate is commercially made from copper scrap by:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Action of dilute sulphuric acid and air
Option B (Action of dilute sulphuric acid and air) is correct because copper scrap reacts with dilute sulfuric acid in the presence of air (oxygen) to form copper sulfate.

Which oxide of Mn is acidic in nature?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Mn2O7\mathrm{M}{\mathrm{n}_2}{\mathrm{O}_7}
Option B (Mn2O7\mathrm{M}{\mathrm{n}_2}{\mathrm{O}_7}) is correct because Mn2O7 forms HMnO4 (permanganic acid) when dissolved in water, indicating its acidic nature.

Among the given options, identify the option representing incorrect statement?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Solid potassium dichromate and concentrated H2SO4\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 liberates chlorine gas with solid sodium chloride which is used to confirm presence of Cl⊖\mathrm{Cl}^{\ominus} ion
The correct answer is C because solid potassium dichromate and concentrated H2SO4 do not liberate chlorine gas with solid sodium chloride; instead, they produce chromyl chloride (CrO2Cl2).

In chromyl chloride, the number of d-electrons present on chromium is same as in (Given at. no. of Ti:22, V:23, Cr:24, Mn:25, Fe:26\text{Ti:} 22, \, \text{V:} 23, \, \text{Cr:}24, \, \text{Mn:} 25, \, \text{Fe:} 26)
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Mn\mathrm{Mn} (VII)
Option B is correct because Cr in chromyl chloride (CrO2Cl2) has a +6 oxidation state, resulting in a d0 configuration, which is the same as Mn(VII).
400 Easy

Gold exhibits the variable oxidation states of:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
+1,+3+ 1,\mathrm{ } + 3
Option B (+1,+3+ 1,\mathrm{ } + 3) is correct because gold commonly exhibits oxidation states of +1 and +3.

Green vitriol is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
FeSO4.7H2O\mathrm{FeS}{\mathrm{O}_4}.7{\mathrm{H}_2}\mathrm{O}
Option A (FeSO4.7H2O\mathrm{FeS}{\mathrm{O}_4}.7{\mathrm{H}_2}\mathrm{O}) is correct because Green vitriol is iron(II) sulfate heptahydrate (FeSO4.7H2O\mathrm{FeS}{\mathrm{O}_4}.7{\mathrm{H}_2}\mathrm{O}).

When KMnO4\mathrm{KMnO}_4 reacts with iodide ion (I−)\left(\mathrm{I}^{-}\right) in neutral medium then the product obtained will be:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
IO3−\mathrm{IO}_3^{-}
Option D (IO3−\mathrm{IO}_3^{-}) is correct because in a neutral medium, permanganate oxidizes iodide ions to iodate ions.

Positive sol among the following is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
TiO2solTi{O_2}sol

View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
both CuCrO4\mathrm{CuCrO}_4 and Cu2Cr2O7\mathrm{Cu}_2 \mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7.
Option D (both CuCrO4\mathrm{CuCrO}_4 and Cu2Cr2O7\mathrm{Cu}_2 \mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7) is correct because the reaction produces both copper chromate and copper dichromate due to the acidic nature of the copper sulfate solution.

Which of the following metals do not react with HCl\mathrm{HCl} ?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Silver and gold
Option B is correct. Silver (Ag) and gold (Au) are noble metals and are unreactive with HCl because they have higher reduction potentials than hydrogen.

A compound of a metal ion Mx+{M^{x + }} (Z = 24) has a spin only magnetic moment of 15\sqrt {15} Bohr Magnetons. The number of unpaired electrons in the compound are:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
3
Option D (3) is correct because the number of unpaired electrons is found using the formula μ=n(n+2)\mathrm{\mu } = \sqrt {n(n + 2)} and solving for n when μ=15\mathrm{\mu } = \sqrt{15}, which gives n=3.

Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason(R)

Assertion(A): La(OH)3{La}({OH})_3 is the most basic while Lu(OH)3{Lu}({OH})_3 is the least basic.

Reason(R): As the size of lanthanoids decreases covalent character of hydroxides decreases and basic character increases.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
A is correct but R is not correct
Option C (CH3CH2OH\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{OH} and CH3COCH3\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{COCH}_3) is correct because both ethanol and acetone give a positive iodoform test.
