Types of Chemical Reactions

The following questions consist of two statements- Assertion(A) and Reason(R). Answer these questions selecting the appropriate option given below:

Assertion(A) : In electrolysis of water, the volume of hydrogen liberated is twice the volume of oxygen formed.

Reason  (R) : Water, ${\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}$ has hydrogen and oxygen in the ratio of $1:2$ by volume.

The burning of natural gas is oxidation as well as an endothermic reaction.

Complete the following equation: 

 ${\mathrm{CH}}_4\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+2{\mathrm{O}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)\to$_____ $\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+2{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+\mathrm{Heat}$.

$\mathrm{A}. \mathrm{CO}$

$\mathrm{B}. {\mathrm{CO}}_2$

$\mathrm{C}. {\mathrm{H}}_2$

(Enter your correct answer as $\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B} \mathrm{or} \mathrm{C}$)

Which of the following is not an exothermic change?

Explain what is meant by a highly exothermic” reaction and explain why such a reaction needs to be carried out in a safe and controlled way.

A student proposes to make some potassium nitrate. She uses the following method. First, she reacts a small amount of potassium metal with water. This creates an alkaline solution of potassium hydroxide. She then adds a small amount of dilute nitric acid to create potassium nitrate.

Give two safety precautions that she should take when carrying out this method.

$1 \mathrm{g}$ of each of the elements with atomic numbers $11$ to $17$ was burned in chlorine gas. In each case there was an exothermic reaction and the amount of energy released was measured. The results are shown in the table.

No measurement was made for the element with atomic number $15$. Use your graph to predict the amount of energy released.

$1 \mathrm{g}$ of each of the elements with atomic numbers $11$ to $17$ was burned in chlorine gas. In each case there was an exothermic reaction and the amount of energy released was measured. The results are shown in the table.

The element with atomic number $17$ did not react with chlorine gas. Suggest why is it so?

$1 \mathrm{g}$ of each of the elements with atomic numbers $11$ to $17$ was burned in chlorine gas. In each case there was an exothermic reaction and the amount of energy released was measured. The results are shown n the table.

$1 \mathrm{g}$ of each of the elements with atomic numbers $11$ to $17$ was burned in chlorine gas. In each case, there was an exothermic reaction and the amount of energy released was measured. The results are shown in the table.

Plot a suitable graph of these results.
