Sample Punjab PSEB Matric Science Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Punjab PSEB Matric Science exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Which of the following is an example of a combination reaction?
A.CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂
B.2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
C.Zn + CuSO₄ → ZnSO₄ + Cu
D.2AgCl → 2Ag + Cl₂
Explanation: In a combination reaction two or more reactants form a single product. Hydrogen and oxygen combine to form water.
2When iron nails are placed in copper sulphate solution, the blue colour fades because:
A.iron oxidises copper ions only
B.copper is displaced by iron and copper metal deposits
C.copper sulphate evaporates
D.iron dissolves without any chemical change
Explanation: Iron is more reactive than copper, so Fe displaces Cu²⁺ from CuSO₄: Fe + CuSO₄ → FeSO₄ + Cu. The blue Cu²⁺ concentration falls as copper metal forms.
3Which reaction is a double displacement (precipitation) reaction?
A.2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
B.Zn + H₂SO₄ → ZnSO₄ + H₂
C.Na₂SO₄ + BaCl₂ → BaSO₄ + 2NaCl
D.2H₂O₂ → 2H₂O + O₂
Explanation: Na₂SO₄ and BaCl₂ exchange ions; insoluble BaSO₄ precipitates. That is a classic double displacement precipitation reaction.
4In the reaction 2PbO + C → 2Pb + CO₂, the substance that is oxidised is:
A.PbO
B.C
C.Pb
D.CO₂
Explanation: Carbon gains oxygen (forms CO₂), so carbon is oxidised. PbO loses oxygen and is reduced to lead.
5When the equation Fe + H₂O → Fe₃O₄ + H₂ is balanced, the coefficient of H₂O is:
A.2
B.3
C.4
D.6
Explanation: Balanced equation: 3Fe + 4H₂O → Fe₃O₄ + 4H₂. The coefficient of water is 4.
6Rancidity of oils and fats is mainly due to:
A.reduction by hydrogen
B.oxidation of unsaturated fats/oils
C.addition of antioxidants only
D.dissolving in water
Explanation: Unsaturated fats and oils slowly oxidise in air, producing foul-smelling compounds (rancidity). Antioxidants and airtight packing slow oxidation.
7Which observation indicates a chemical reaction when dilute HCl is added to zinc granules?
A.Only a temperature drop with no gas
B.Evolution of hydrogen gas and warming of the mixture
C.Formation of a solid precipitate of zinc metal
D.No change at all
Explanation: Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂ is a displacement reaction. Hydrogen gas evolves and the reaction is typically exothermic (mixture warms).
8According to the law of conservation of mass, in a closed system the total mass of reactants is:
A.always less than products
B.always greater than products
C.equal to the total mass of products
D.unrelated to products
Explanation: Mass is neither created nor destroyed in ordinary chemical reactions. In a closed system, mass of reactants equals mass of products.
9Which of the following turns blue litmus red?
A.NaOH solution
B.Lime water
C.Dilute HCl
D.Soap solution
Explanation: Acids turn blue litmus red. Dilute HCl is acidic; NaOH, lime water, and soap solution are basic/alkaline.
10The pH of pure water at 25 °C is approximately:
A.0
B.7
C.14
D.1
Explanation: Pure water is neutral with [H⁺] = 10⁻⁷ mol L⁻¹ at 25 °C, so pH = 7.
