Long Answer Type Questions [ 5 Marks ]

1. (a) Define a balanced chemical equation. Why should an equation be

balanced?

(b) Write the balanced chemical equation for the following reaction:

(i) Phosphorus burns in presence of chlorine to form phosphorus penta

chloride.

a) because the law of conservation of mass states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed.

b) i) P4 + 10Cl2 ----------> 4PCl5.

ii) CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + Energy.

iii) C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O.

2. (a) Explain two ways by which food industries prevent rancidity.

(b) Discuss the importance of decomposition reaction in metal industry with

three points.

Rancidity is complete (or) incomplete oxidation (or) hydrolysis of fats and oils
when exposed to air light moisture loss by bacterial action resulting in an
unpleasant taste.

a) 1) It can be presented by adding antioxidants to food containing fat and oil ex


hydroxy anisole is added to butter.

2) It can be presented by packing fat and oil containing foods in nitrogen gas.

b) 1) Nolten Nacl is hydroelectrically decomposed to form sodium metal.

2) aluminum metal is obtained by electric decomposition of bauxite (or) mixed


with Cryolite

3) Carbonateores are thermally decomposed to give metal oxide which on


reduction give metal.

3. (a) Write one example for each of decomposion reaction carried out with help

of

(i) Electricity (ii) Heat (iii) Light

(b) Which of the following statements is correct and why copper can displace

silver from silver nitrate and silver can displace copper from copper sulphate
solution.

4. What happens when a piece of

(a) Zinc metal is added to copper suphste solution?

(b) Aluminium metal is added to dilute hydrochloric acid?

(c) Silver metal is added to copper sulphate solution?

Also write the balanced chemical equation if the reaction occurs.

A) When zinc is added to a solution of copper sulfate, zinc displaces copper and
forms zinc sulphate as a result.

b) When aluminium metals react with dilute HCl, aluminium chloride is formed,
and hydrogen gas is released as a byproduct of the reaction.

c) no reaction takes place as silver is less reactive than that of copper and cannot
displace copper from its solution.

5. On heating blue coloured powder of copper (II) nitrate in a boiling tube ,

copper oxide (black), oxygen gas and a brown gas X is formed.

(a) Write a balanced chemical equation of the reaction

(b) Identify the brown gas x evolved.

(c) Identify the type of reaction

(d) What could be the pH range of aqueous solution of the gas x?

Balanced chemical equation:

2Cu(NO3)2(s) ⟶Heat 2CuO(s)+O2(g)+4NO2(g)

Hence, the brown gas X evolved is nitrogen dioxide (NO2).

6. On adding a drop of barium chloride solution to an aqueous solution of

sodium sulphate, white precipitate is obtained.

(a) Write the balanced chemical equation of the reaction involved.

(b) What other name can be given to this precipitation reaction?

(c) On adding diute hydrochloric acid to the reaction mixture, white precipitate

disappears. Why?

a) Balanced chemical equation:

BaCl2(aq) + Na2SO3(aq) ⟶ BaSO3(s) + 2NaCl(aq)

Barium chloride Sodium sulphite Barium sulphite Sodium chloride


(white ppt.)

(b) This reaction is also known as a double displacement reaction as both reactants
exchange their ions.

(c) BaSO3 when treated with dilute HCl forms barium chloride and liberates
sulphur dioxide gas which has a characteristic odour of burning sulphur. The
reaction occurs as follows:

BaSO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) → BaCl2(aq) + H2O(l) + SO2(g)

Barium sulphite Hydrochloric acid Barium chloride Water Sulphur dioxide

(white)

Since, BaCl2 is water-soluble, the white precipitate disappears.

7. You are provided with two containers made up of copper and aluminium. You

are aso provided with solutions of dilute HCl, dilute HNO3, ZnCl2 and H2O. In

which of the above containers of these solutions can be kept?

Aluminium vessel.
