What happens to pH of a solution when NH₄Cl crystal is added to a dilute solution of NH₄OH?

1. Decreases                                   

2. Increases

3. Remains unaffected                       

4. All of the above

For the reactions,

A $\rightleftharpoons$ B;                                  K_c = 2

B $\rightleftharpoons$ C;                                  K_c = 4

C $\rightleftharpoons$ D;                                  K_c = 6

K_c for the reaction, A $\rightleftharpoons$ D is:

1. (2+4+6)                       

2. (2x4)/6

3. (4x6)/2                         

4. 2x4x6

The phenomenon of interaction of anions and cations furnished by an electrolyte with the H⁺ and  OH^- ions of water to produce acidic nature or alkalinity is known as hydrolysis. In hydrolysis:

1. the pH may either increase or decrease

2. all the salts (except those made up with strong acid and base) undergo hydrolysis

3. the variation of pH depends upon the nature of salts as well as on the temperature

4. all of the above

For the reaction equilibrium,

2NOBr(g) $\rightleftharpoons$2NO(g) + Br₂, if $P_{\mathit{B}{\mathit{r}}_{\mathit{2}}}$ = P/9 at equilibrium and P is total pressure. The ratio of K_p/P is equal to:

1. 1/9               

2. 1/81

3. 1/27               

4. 1/3

In the system, CaF₂(s) $\rightleftharpoons$Ca²⁺ (aq) + 2F^-(aq), increasing the concentration of Ca²⁺ ions 4 times will cause the equilibrium concentration of F^- ions to change to:

1. 1/4 of the initial value

2. 1/2 of the initial value

3. 2 times of the initial value

4. none of the above

The addition of HCl does not suppress the ionization of:

KMnO₄ can be prepared from K₂MnO₄ as per reaction,

 $3{\mathrm{MnO}}_4^{2-} + 2{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O} \rightleftharpoons 2{\mathrm{MnO}}_4^{-} + {\mathrm{MnO}}_2 + 4{\mathrm{OH}}^{-}$

The reaction can go to completion by removing OH^- ions by adding             

1. HCl

2. KOH

3. CO₂

4. SO₂

The rate of reaction depends upon the                    

1. Volume

2. Force

3. Pressure

4. Concentration of reactants

The increasing order of basic strength of Cl^-, ${\mathrm{CO}}_3^{2-}$, CH₃COO^-, OH^-, F^- is:

1. Cl^-<F^-<CH₃COO^-<${\mathrm{CO}}_3^{2-}$<OH^-

2.  Cl^-<F^-< ${\mathrm{CO}}_3^{2-}$<CH₃COO^-<OH^-

3. CH₃COO^-<Cl^-<F^-<${\mathrm{CO}}_3^{2-}$<OH^-

4. none of the above
