How many neutrons are present in atom with mass number and atomic number 37 and 17 respectively?
18
20
37
17
Correct answer is B
The mass number = number of neutrons + atomic number.
number of neutrons = The mass number - atomic number.
number of neutrons = 37 - 17 = 20
The following non-metal form acidic oxides with oxygen except?
phosphorus
sulphur
carbon
chlorine
Correct answer is C
The oxides which neither react with acids nor react with bases are known as neutral oxides.
Carbon monoxide neither reacts with acids nor reacts with bases.
Thus, carbon monoxide is a neutral oxide, produced when combustion reactions are not fully completed, either through lack of oxygen or due to low mixing
In the preparation of salts, the method employed will depend on the?
composition
dissociating ability
stability to heat
precipitating ability
Correct answer is C
The method used to prepare a salt depend on:
the solubility of the salt in water.
the heat stability of the salt
SO\(_2\) + O\(_2\) → 2SO\(_3\) In the reaction above, the most suitable catalyst is?
chromium(vi)oxide
iron(iii)oxide
copper(i)oxide
vanadium(v)oxide
Correct answer is D
During the Contact Process for manufacturing sulfuric acid, sulfur dioxide has to be converted into sulfur trioxide, which is done by passing sulfur dioxide and oxygen over a solid vanadium(V) oxide catalyst.
The sub-atomic particles located in the nucleus of an atom are?
neutron and proton
proton and electron
proton and ions
neutron and electron
Correct answer is A
The nucleus contains two types of subatomic particles, protons and neutrons.
The protons have a positive electrical charge and the neutrons have no electrical charge.
A third type of subatomic particle, electrons, move around the nucleus.
