Sample VMBO GL/TL Nask II Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your VMBO GL/TL Nask II exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1In Dutch Nask II, molecuulmassa means the relative molecular mass of a substance. What is the molecuulmassa of H₂O if H = 1 and O = 16?
A.17
B.18
C.32
D.34
Explanation: H₂O has 2×1 + 16 = 18. Molecuulmassa is the sum of the atomic masses in the formula.
2Which SI unit is used for mass in chemical mass-ratio calculations on the Nask II CE?
A.Litre (L)
B.Gram (g) or kilogram (kg)
C.Newton (N)
D.Pascal (Pa)
Explanation: Mass is measured in grams or kilograms. Litres measure volume; newtons force; pascals pressure.
3A prefix milli- multiplies a unit by which factor?
A.10³
B.10⁶
C.10⁻³
D.10⁻⁶
Explanation: Milli- means 10⁻³ (one thousandth). Kilo- is 10³; mega- is 10⁶; micro- is 10⁻⁶.
4When reading a chemistry source for Nask II, which statement is a fact rather than an opinion?
A."Complete combustion of methane always feels safer than incomplete combustion."
B."Complete combustion of methane produces carbon dioxide and water."
C."Refineries should never crack heavy fractions."
D."Plastics are always better than metals."
Explanation: Product identity of complete methane combustion (CO₂ and H₂O) is a verifiable chemical fact. The others are value judgements or absolute claims without evidence.
5In a reaction equation, the coefficients show the particle (or mole) ratio of substances. In 2 H₂ + O₂ → 2 H₂O, how many H₂ molecules react with one O₂ molecule?
A.1
B.2
C.3
D.4
Explanation: The coefficient of H₂ is 2 and of O₂ is 1, so two hydrogen molecules react with one oxygen molecule.
6Which reference book is allowed for the 2026 VMBO GL/TL Nask II paper CSE according to Examenblad hulpmiddelen guidance?
A.Binas NaSkI/II 1e editie only
B.Binas NaSkI/II 2e editie only
C.Any chemistry textbook chapter photocopy
D.No reference book is ever allowed
Explanation: For CE 2026 only Binas NaSkI/II 2e editie is allowed; the 1e editie is not permitted.
7Mass percentage of element X in a compound equals (mass of X in formula / molecuulmassa) × 100%. What is the mass % of O in H₂O (H=1, O=16)?
A.11%
B.50%
C.89%
D.94%
Explanation: Mass of O = 16; molecuulmassa = 18; (16/18)×100% ≈ 89%.
8Which quantity is typically read from the vertical axis of a mass-ratio diagram used in Nask II production calculations?
A.Temperature in kelvin only
B.Mass of a reactant or product (often in grams)
C.pH without units
D.Sound level in dB(A)
Explanation: Mass-ratio diagrams plot masses of substances involved in a reaction so candidates can read proportional amounts.
9A solution has a volume of 250 mL and contains 10 g of dissolved salt. What is the mass concentration in g/L?
A.0.040 g/L
B.4.0 g/L
C.40 g/L
D.400 g/L
Explanation: 250 mL = 0.250 L; concentration = 10 g / 0.250 L = 40 g/L.
10In investigation design for chemistry, what should you change when testing how temperature affects reaction rate while keeping a fair test?
A.Change temperature and also change the amounts of every reactant each trial
B.Change only the temperature; keep other factors (amounts, concentration, surface area) constant
C.Never measure time
D.Always omit a control observation
Explanation: A fair test varies one independent variable (temperature here) and controls the others so the effect can be attributed correctly.

About the VMBO GL/TL Nask II Exam

VMBO GL/TL Natuur- en scheikunde II (Nask II) is a Dutch secondary chemistry-focused exam for the gemengde and theoretische leerwegen under CvTE rules, catalogued on Examenblad.nl. It is GL/TL-specific — there is no BB Nask II paper. The Syllabus natuur- en scheikunde II vmbo 2026 places GT CE on NASK2/K/3, K/5, K/7, K/10, K/11 and verrijking V/1, V/2, V/4 (skills, combustion, water/acids/bases, basic chemistry, structure of matter, production processes and product research). Unlike BB/KB Facet flex subjects, the GL/TL CE is paper only in fixed tijdvakken (120 min). Official CE language is Dutch; this practice bank is an English-language multiple-choice study adaptation covering those CE concepts (with light SE revision) and including calculation items typical of GT chemistry.

Assessment

Eindexamen = CE + SE. Centraal Examen: paper CSE in national tijdvakken; open/short-answer style items with calculations (and some multiple-choice) scored via correctievoorschrift; raw points converted to a 1–10 grade with the N-term omzettingstabel. Schoolexamen: school PTA covers exameneenheden marked must-on-SE (and may include CE units). Official assessment is not a pure MCQ bank. Nask II has no VMBO BB counterpart.

Time Limit

CE: 120 minutes paper CSE for GL/TL Nask II. 1e tijdvak 2026: Thursday 21 May 2026, 13:30–15:30. 2e tijdvak 2026: Friday 19 June 2026, 13:30–15:30. Vakspecifieke informatie: paper only (not Facet). SE duration and forms follow each school’s PTA.

Passing Score

Dutch grading scale 1–10; a subject is typically passed at ≥5.5. When both CE and SE apply, the final subject grade is the average of CE and SE. CE points are converted via the published N-term table for the paper CSE series.

Exam Fee

No separate published per-subject fee for regular secondary-school VMBO GL/TL candidates (publicly funded). Do not treat DUO Staatsexamen subject fees as the school CE fee; those fees apply only to independent DUO Staatsexamen candidates. (College voor Toetsen en Examens (CvTE); catalogue and documents on Examenblad.nl)

VMBO GL/TL Nask II Study Tips from Top Performers

1Map revision to CE units K/3, K/5, K/7, K/10, K/11 and V/1–V/2/V/4; keep SE-only units in PTA practice, not as CE substitutes.
2Drill branddriehoek and complete vs incomplete combustion (CO₂+H₂O vs CO/roet) with named fuels and refining steps (destillatie, kraken).
3Memorise required acid/base formulas and ion list from the syllabus; practise pH and indicator colour changes.
4Practise chemical calculations: atom/molecule mass, mass ratios, mass %, volume %, and excess reactant on given equations.
5Use the Periodiek Systeem: groups/periods, metals vs non-metals, and group 17/18 names.
6Use these English MCQs for concept/calculation drill, then switch to Dutch past papers on Examenblad for authentic paper CSE timing.
7Check Septembermededeling and vakspecifieke informatie each year for Binas edition and hulpmiddelen rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Netherlands VMBO GL/TL Natuur- en scheikunde II?

It is the VMBO gemengde/theoretische leerweg chemistry-focused eindexamen subject under CvTE, with documents and rooster on Examenblad.nl. For 2026 the CE exameneenheden for GT include NASK2/K/3, K/5 (verbranding), K/7 (water, zuren en basen), K/10 (basischemie), K/11 (bouw van de materie), plus V/1, V/2 and V/4. There is no VMBO BB Nask II counterpart.

Is the official Centraal Examen multiple-choice?

No. The official CE is a paper CSE with open and short-answer style items and calculations (and some multiple-choice) scored with a correctievoorschrift and converted to a grade using the N-term omzettingstabel. This page’s 100 questions are an English-language MCQ study adaptation for concept and calculation practice, not an official CE simulation.

When and how long is the 2026 VMBO GL/TL Nask II CE?

1e tijdvak: Thursday 21 May 2026, 13:30–15:30 (120 minutes). 2e tijdvak: Friday 19 June 2026, 13:30–15:30 (120 minutes). Vakspecifieke informatie states the exam is paper only — not a Facet flex exam.

What score do I need to pass?

Dutch secondary grades use a 1–10 scale; a subject is typically passed at 5.5 or higher. When both CE and SE apply, the final subject grade is normally their average. CE raw scores are converted via the paper CSE N-term table published on Examenblad after each series.

How much does VMBO GL/TL Nask II cost for school candidates?

Regular secondary-school VMBO GL/TL candidates do not pay a separate published per-subject CE fee; schooling is publicly funded. DUO Staatsexamen subject fees apply only to independent Staatsexamen candidates and should not be cited as the school exam fee.

Is there a VMBO BB version of Nask II?

No. Natuur- en scheikunde II is a GL/TL subject on Examenblad. VMBO BB candidates take Nask I (and other BB subjects) but not a BB Nask II counterpart.

Which syllabus and aids should I use for 2026?

Use Syllabus natuur- en scheikunde II vmbo 2026 (CvTE) and vakspecifieke informatie on Examenblad. For CE 2026 only Binas NaSkI/II 2e editie is allowed (1e editie is not). Practise Dutch past papers for authentic wording and 120-minute timing.

Are these practice questions in Dutch like the official exam?

No. The official CE language is Dutch. These 100 items are an English-language MCQ study adaptation that keeps key Dutch technical terms (e.g. verbranding, zuurgraad, molecuulmassa) where useful for later Dutch CE practice.
