CO2 is absorbed by KOH.
So the remaining product is only CO.

Among CaH2, BeH2, BaH2, the order of ionic character is
BeH2< CaH2<BaH2
CaH2<BeH2<BaH2
BaH2<BeH2<CaH2
BeH2 < BaH2 < CaH2
A.
BeH2< CaH2<BaH2
Smaller the size cation, more will be its polarising power. Hence, BeH2 will be least ionic.
Or
On moving down the group metallic character of metals increases so ionic character of metal hydride increases.
Which of the following statements is not true for halogens?
All form monobasic oxyacids
All are oxidizing agents
Chlorine has the highest electron-gain enthalpy
All but fluorine show positive oxidation states
D.
All but fluorine show positive oxidation states
Due to high electronegativity and small size, F forms only one oxoacid, HOF known as Fluoric (I) acid the oxidation number of F is +1 in HOF.

Considering the Ellingham diagram, which of the following metals can be used to reduce alumina?
Fe
Zn
Cu
Mg
D.
Mg
The metal which is more reactive than 'Al' can reduce alumina. Also, according to the Ellingham diagram, Mg has more –ΔG value then alumina. Metals which has more –ΔG value can reduce those metals oxide which has less –ΔG value.
Which one of the following elements is unable to form ion?
Ga
Al
In
B
D.
B
The element M in the complex-ion has a coordination number of six.
B has only s and p-orbitals and no d – orbitals available, therefore, at the maximum it can show a coordination number of 4. Thus, B cannot form the complex of the type

Which of the following is correct with respect to – I effect of the substituents? (R = alkyl)
-NH2 <- OR < - F
-NR2 <- OR <-F
-NR2 >-OR>-F
-NH2>-OR>-F
A.
-NH2 <- OR < - F
-I effect increases on increasing electronegativity of the atom. So, the correct order of -I effect is
-NH2 <-OR < -F
Also,
-NR2<-OR<-F

In which case is a number of molecules of water maximum?
18 mL of water
0.18 g of water
10-3 mol of water
0.00224 L of water vapours at 1 atm and 273K
A.
18 mL of water
a) Mass of water = 18 x 1 = 18 g
Molecules of water = mole x NA
b) Molecules of water = mole x NA
c) Molecules of water = mole x NA = 10-3 NA
d) Moles of water = 0.00224/22.4 = 10-4
Molecules of water = mole x NA = 10-4 NA
