Multiple Choice Questions - Set - 4
Question 1:
Which of the following pairs will give displacement reactions?
(a) NaCl solution and copper metal
(b) MgCl2 solution and aluminium metal
(c) FeSO4 solution and silver metal
(d) AgNO3 solution and copper metal
Correct Answer – (D)
Copper (Cu) being more reactive than silver (Ag), displaces silver from silver nitrate (AgNO3) to form copper nitrate
2AgNO3 + Cu → Cu(NO3)2+ 2Ag
Question 2 :
Which of the following represent the correct order of decreasing reactivity?
a) Mg > Al > Zn > Fe
b) Mg > Zn > Al > Fe
c) Al > Zn > Fe > Mg
d) Mg > Fe > Zn > Al
Correct Answer – (A)
The decreasing order of the reactivity of the common metals is given below:
Li, K, Na, Ba, Ca, Mg , Al, Mn, Zn, Fe, Ni, Sn, Pb, [H], Cu,Hg, Ag, Au,Pt
Question 3 :
In electrolytic refining, the cathode is made up of
a) Pure metal
b) Impure metal
c) Alloy
d) Metallic salt
Correct Answer – (A)
Question 4 :
The metal which is liquid at room temperature is
a) Bromine
b) Mercury
c) Iodine
d) Potassium
Correct Answer – (B)
Question 5 :
The number of protons in an atom of an element A is 19 then, the number of electron in its ion A+ is:
a) 18
b) 19
c) 20
d) 21
Correct Answer – (A)
Question 6 :
An element reacts with oxygen to give a compound with a high melting point. This compound is also soluble in water. The element is likely to be
(a) Ca
(b) C
(c) Si
(d) Fe
Correct Answer – (A)
Question 7 :
In the given reaction, Al2O3 + NaOH → ……X…… + H2O
What is element X?
a) NaAlO2
b) Na3Al
c) Na2O3
d) NaAl2O3
Correct Answer – (A)
Aluminium oxide is amphoteric in nature, i.e., it reacts with acids as well as bases to form salt and water.
Here, aluminium oxide behaves as an acid as it reacts with NaOH, a base and forms sodium aluminate (NaAlO2) and water:
Al2O3 + NaOH → 2NaAlO2+ H2O

The sulphide ores are converted into oxides by heating strongly in the presence of excess air. This process is known as
a) Roasting
b) Smelting
c) Calcination
d) Refining
Correct Answer – (A)
Question 9 :
Bauxite is an ore of
a) Iron
b) Aluminium
c) Mercury
d) Copper
Correct Answer – (B)
Question 10 :
