721.

The i.u.p.A.C name for the compound

A.

2-chloro-isopentane

B.

3-chloro-isopentane

C.

2-chloro-2-methylbutane

D.

1-chloro-2,2- dimethylpropane

E.

Correct answer is C

No explanation has been provided for this answer.

722.

The solubility curve of a solid X (molecular mass = 160) is as show above. 1,000 cm3 of a saturated solution of X at 80°C is cooled to 40°C . The weight of X crystalized out would be

A.

10 g

B.

12 g

C.

14 g

D.

16 g

E.

18 g

Correct answer is D

At 80°C, we have \(1000cm^{3} = 0.4mol/cm^{3}\)

40°C = \(0.3mol/cm^{3}\)

hence, the loss in concentration = \(0.1mol/cm^{3}\)

= \(0.1 \times 160 = 16g\)

723.

The IUPAC name for

A.

1-methlpentan

B.

3-methylbutane

C.

2-methylbutane

D.

1-dimethylpropane

E.

2-methylpentane

Correct answer is C

C.

the bulb lights and copper is deposited at the cathode and oxygen liberated at the anode

D.

the bulb lights and copper is deposited at the cathode and disappears from the anode

E.

the bulb lights but no additional changes are observed

Correct answer is D

No explanation has been provided for this answer.

725.

The following graph demonstrates the rate of reaction between calcium carbonate (marble)and dilute hydrochloric acid. The graph shows that the rate of reaction is initially greatest when

A.

the initial slope of the curve is steepest and this occur when small pieces of marble are used and is due to a small surface area of reactant

B.

the occur when large pieces of marble are used and is due to a small surface area of reactant

C.

the initial slope of the curve is steepest and this occurs when small pieces of marble are used and is due to a large surface area of reactant

D.

the initial slope of the curve is steepest and this occur when large surface area of reactant

E.

the initial slope of the curve is least steep and this occur when small pieces of marble are used and is due to the increased surface area of the reactant

Correct answer is C
