1Molality of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in:
A.1 L of solution
B.1 kg of solution
C.1 kg of solvent
D.1 L of solvent
Explanation: Molality (m) = moles of solute / mass of solvent in kg. Unlike molarity, it depends on solvent mass and is temperature-independent.
2Which concentration unit does not change with temperature?
A.Molarity
B.Normality
C.Molality
D.Volume percent
Explanation: Molality is based on mass of solvent, which is temperature-independent. Units that use volume change with temperature.
3A solution is prepared by dissolving 5.85 g of NaCl (M = 58.5 g mol⁻¹) in water to make 250 mL of solution. The molarity is:
A.0.10 M
B.0.20 M
C.0.40 M
D.0.50 M
Explanation: n = 5.85/58.5 = 0.10 mol. V = 0.250 L. M = n/V = 0.10/0.250 = 0.40 mol L⁻¹.
4According to Raoult’s law for a binary ideal solution of volatile liquids, the partial vapour pressure of component A is:
A.p_A = p_A° × x_A
B.p_A = p_A° / x_A
C.p_A = p_A° + x_A
D.p_A = p_A° − x_A
Explanation: Raoult’s law: partial vapour pressure of a volatile component equals its pure-component vapour pressure times its mole fraction: p_A = p_A° · x_A.
5A 0.1 m aqueous solution of a non-volatile non-electrolyte freezes at −0.186 °C. If K_f of water is 1.86 K kg mol⁻¹, the van ’t Hoff factor i is approximately:
A.0.5
B.1.0
C.1.5
D.2.0
Explanation: ΔT_f = i · K_f · m ⇒ 0.186 = i · 1.86 · 0.1 ⇒ i = 1.0. A non-electrolyte that neither associates nor dissociates has i = 1.
6Osmotic pressure of a 0.01 M solution of a non-electrolyte at 27 °C is (R = 0.0821 L atm mol⁻¹ K⁻¹):
A.0.0821 atm
B.0.246 atm
C.0.492 atm
D.2.46 atm
Explanation: π = CRT = (0.01)(0.0821)(300) = 0.2463 atm ≈ 0.246 atm.
7In a body-centred cubic (bcc) unit cell, the number of atoms per unit cell is:
A.1
B.2
C.3
D.4
Explanation: A bcc cell has 8 corner atoms (8 × 1/8 = 1) plus 1 body-centred atom, so Z = 2.
8For a face-centred cubic lattice with edge length a, the atomic radius r satisfies:
A.4r = a√3
B.4r = a√2
C.2r = a
D.4r = a
Explanation: In fcc, atoms touch along the face diagonal: face diagonal = 4r = a√2, so r = a√2/4.
9Schottky defect in an ionic crystal is characterised by:
A.Missing cation–anion pair with overall electroneutrality retained
B.Cation displaced to an interstitial site
C.Extra anion in interstitial site only
D.Electron trapped in an anion vacancy only
Explanation: A Schottky defect is a stoichiometric vacancy pair (cation and anion vacancies in equal numbers) so the crystal remains electrically neutral. Density decreases.
10The packing efficiency of a face-centred cubic (ccp) structure is approximately:
A.52%
B.68%
C.74%
D.100%
Explanation: For fcc/ccp, packing efficiency ≈ 74% (Z = 4, a = 2√2 r). This is the densest packing for equal spheres.
