666.

On which of the following is the solubility of a gaseous substance dependent? 
I. Nature of solvent 
II. Nature of solute 
III. Temperature 
IV. Pressure

A.

I, II, III and IV

B.

I and II only

C.

II only

D.

III and IV only

Correct answer is D

The solubility of a gas decreases with an increase in temperature and a decrease in pressure.

667.

A basic postulate of the kinetic theory of gases is that the molecules of a gas move in straight lines between collisions. This implies that

A.

collisions are perfectly elastic

B.

forces of repulsion exist

C.

forces of repulsion and attraction are in equilibrium

D.

collisions are inelastic

Correct answer is A

According to one of the kinetic theories of gases, When collisions occur, the molecules lose no kinetic energy; that is, the collisions are said to be perfectly elastic.

668.

A correct electrochemical series can be obtained from Na, Ca, Al, Mg, Zn, Fe, Pb, H, Cu, Hg, Ag, Au by interchanging

A.

Al and Mg

B.

Zn and Fe

C.

Zn and Pb

D.

Pb and H

Correct answer is A

No explanation has been provided for this answer.

The Consecutive members of an alkane homologous series differ by

A.

CH

B.

CH2

C.

CH3

D.

CnHn

Correct answer is B

No explanation has been provided for this answer.

670.

According to the Kinetic Theory an increase in temperature causes the kinetic energy of particles to

A.

decrease

B.

increase

C.

be zero

D.

remain constant

Correct answer is B

According to the kinetic theory of gases, when a substance is heated, the average kinetic energy of its molecules increases and this leads to a rise in temperature.
