But thankx.. no worries if you're busy...
i got how to do Q16, 25, 30, 31 and 34 .. so no need for those :)

It's not about being clever dude. You're going to have the same exams in 2 days, so you should have been ready. :)

12. You just need to write the balanced equations for the complete combustion of one mole of each element.

Mg + 1/2O2 ----> Mg0

Al + 3/4O2 ----> 1/2Al2O3

S + 3/2O2 ----> SO3

Hence we can note that the number of moles of oxygen required increases but not constantly from Magnesium to Sulfur. ;)

Answer is D

15. You should first write the balanced equation representing the decomposition of the nitrate. That will be:

Ca(NO3)2 -----> CaO + 2NO2 + 1/2O2

From equation:
1 mole of nitrate gives 1/2 mole of oxygen gas.
164g of nitrate produces (24/2) dm3 of oxygen gas.
Hence 8.2g of nitrate will emit (12/164 x 8.2) = 0.6dm3 = 600cm3

Answer is C

19. Chiral centres are shown by a carbon atom carrying 4 different group of atoms. No carbon involved in a C=C will be able to show chirality.

Hence this leaves us with only two chiral centres. Starting from the right, they are the second and the third carbon atom

Answer is B

24. I'll proceed by elimination.

Propan-2-ol and 2-methyl-propan-2-ol are first to be rejected since they can form only one type of alkene due to free rotation. ;)

2-methylbutan-2-ol can form only 2 types of alkenes due to free rotation. It is connected to three other carbon atoms and should have been able to form 3 alkenes but two of them are identical.

Butan-2-ol should have formed only two types of alkenes but one of them show cis-trans isomerism. Hence it forms 3 types of alkenes.

Answer is A.

36. A reaction in which the same element is both oxidized and reduced is called a disproportionation reaction.

Is that enough or should I go in more details?

39.

Unburnt hydrocarbons are made to burn completely to form carbon dioxide and water. Hence this is a form of oxidation. Oxygen comes from the oxides of nitrogen which in turn gets reduced. ;)

Thankx a ton for the help buddy! :)
I understood all that you mentioned.. but i think you did no 19 instead of no 18 :)

If you have time please do it, otherwise its fine. Thankx again +rep

Anytime ;)

Ooh yeah.......I'm sorry for the confusion.

18. CaO is a basic oxide while ammonium sulfate is some kind of acidic as H+ can be liberated from NH4+. So they'll react together to give off ammonia, which being a gas will rise into the atmosphere. Hence the soil will lose its nitrogen which is required by plants.

Answer is C.

Thank You :)
