Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry Questions and Answers Part-5

1. 30 g of Magnesium and 30 g of oxygen are reacted, then the residual mixture contains
a) 50 g of Magnesium oxide and 10 g of oxygen
b) 40 g of Magnesium oxide and 20 g of oxygen
c) 45 g of Magnesium oxide and 15 g of oxygen
d) 60 g of Magnesium oxide only

Answer: a
Explanation:
q41

2. In order to prepare one litre normal solution of \[KMnO_{4}\], how many grams of \[KMnO_{4}\]  are required if the solution is to be used in acid medium for oxidation?
a) 158 g
b) 62.0 g
c) 31.6 g
d) 790 g

Answer: c
Explanation: Eq. wt of KMnO4 in acid medium is 31.6 g. Hence this much amount must be dissolved in 1 litre to prepare normal solution
