HI cannot be prepared by heating KI with conc.H2SO4{H_2}S{O_4} because:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
H2SO4{H_2}S{O_4} is an oxidizing agent
Option C is correct because concentrated sulfuric acid (H2SO4{H_2}S{O_4}) acts as an oxidizing agent and oxidizes HI to iodine.

When one mole of bleaching powder is completely decomposed in presence of CO2\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{O}_2} then the mass of chlorine gas that is liberated will be:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
70.90 g
Option B (70.90 g) is correct because it is the mass of chlorine gas liberated when one mole of bleaching powder decomposes.

Which of the following statements is correct?

(i) Number of S−S\mathrm{S}-\mathrm{S} bonds in H2SnO6\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{S}_n \mathrm{O}_6 are (n+1)(n+1)

(ii) When F2\mathrm{F}_2 reacts with water, it gives HF\mathrm{HF} and O2\mathrm{O}_2

(iii) Zn\mathrm{Zn} evolves N2O\mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{O} gas on reaction with dil. HNO3\mathrm{HNO}_3

(iv) Both, white and red phosphorous react with boiling alkali to evolve PH3( g)\mathrm{PH}_3(\mathrm{~g})
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
(ii) and (iii) only
Option C is correct because statements (ii) and (iii) are accurate chemical reactions, while (i) and (iv) contain inaccuracies regarding the number of S-S bonds and the reactivity of phosphorus allotropes.

Select the CORRECT reactant for brown ring test of NO3−\mathrm{NO}_3{ }^{-} ion
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Aqueous solution of salt + ferrous sulphate solution + conc. H2SO4\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4
Option C (Aqueous solution of salt + ferrous sulphate solution + conc. H2SO4H_2SO_4) is correct because this combination of reactants is required for the brown ring test to detect nitrate ions.

Which of the following does not contain P−O−PP - O - P bond?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Hypo phosphoric acid
Option D (Hypo phosphoric acid) is correct because its structure contains a direct P-P bond instead of a P-O-P bond.

Schweitzer’s reagent is:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
[Cu(NH3)4]SO4\left[ {\mathrm{Cu}{{\left( {\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{H}_3}} \right)}_4}} \right]\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{O}_4}
Option A (Cu(NH3)4SO4{\mathrm{Cu}{{\left( {\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{H}_3}} \right)}_4}} {\mathrm{SO}_4}) is correct because Schweitzer's reagent is the tetraamminecopper(II) hydroxide solution, which is often represented as the sulfate complex.

Assertion (A): The first real compound of the noble gases in 1962 was O2+[PtF6]−{O}_2^{+}\left[{PtF}_6\right]^{-}

Reason (R): The discovery was based on the basis of comparable ionisation energy of O2{O}_2 and Xe{Xe}.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
Option A is correct because the first real noble gas compound was based on the similar ionization energies of O2 and Xe, leading to the formation of O2+[PtF6]-.

The source of most of the noble gases is:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
The atmospheric air
Option B (The atmospheric air) is correct because the atmosphere is the primary source from which noble gases are extracted.

Assertion: Fluorine oxidises H2O\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} to O2\mathrm{O}_2 but Cl2\mathrm{Cl}_2 does not.

Reason: Electronegativity of fluorine is greater than oxygen but EN of chlorine is lesser than oxygen.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
If both Assertion & Reason are True but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion
Option D is correct because the assertion is incorrect (the hydrogen atoms are not in one plane), but the reason is correct (the carbon atoms are sp2 and sp hybridized).

The compound is used in the estimation of carbon monoxide. Here, AA refers to
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
I2O5\mathrm{I}_2 \mathrm{O}_5
Option A (I2O5\mathrm{I}_2 \mathrm{O}_5) is correct because iodine pentoxide (I2O5) is used to estimate carbon monoxide by oxidizing it to carbon dioxide.

Assertion: O2 F2\mathrm{O}_2 \mathrm{~F}_2 is used for the purification of Plutonium from spent nuclear fuel.

Reason: O2 F2\mathrm{O}_2 \mathrm{~F}_2 convert Plutonium to PuF6\mathrm{PuF}_6.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion
Option A (If both Assertion & Reason are True & the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion) is correct because O2F2\mathrm{O}_2\mathrm{F}_2 is indeed used for Plutonium purification by converting it to PuF6\mathrm{PuF}_6, which is volatile.
