Helium is preferred to hydrogen in filling balloons because hydrogen
is inflammable
is diatomic
exhibits isotopy
is a component of water
Correct answer is A

0.040dm 3
0.896dm 3
5.82dm 3
8.62dm 3
Correct answer is B
Zn + 2HCI → ZnCI2 + H2; 65g of Zn produces 22.4 dm3 of H2; .: 2.6g of Zn will produce = 2.6/65 x 22.4 = 0.896 dm3
