The correct option is 3).
Tooth enamel is primarily composed of calcium phosphate in the form of hydroxyapatite.
-
The correct option is 2).
Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is a strong base. Bases turn red litmus paper blue and have no effect on blue litmus paper. Therefore, red litmus turns to blue and blue litmus remains blue.
-
The correct option is 1).
Let's match each reaction type:
- a) Zn(s)+2AgNO3(aq)→Zn(NO3)2(aq)+2Ag(s)
This is a displacement reaction where zinc displaces silver from silver nitrate. So, (a) matches with (iii).
- b) NaCl(s)+AgNO3(aq)→AgCl(s)+NaNO3(aq)
This is a double displacement reaction where the ions of two compounds exchange places. So, (b) matches with (iv).
- c) CaCO3(s)→CaO(s)+CO2(g)
This is a decomposition reaction where a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. So, (c) matches with (i).
- d) Mg(s)+O2(g)→2MgO(s)
This is a combination reaction where two or more reactants combine to form a single product. So, (d) matches with (ii).
Therefore, the correct matching is (a)-(iii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(i), (d)-(ii).
- The correct option is 4).
To find the value of x, we need to balance the chemical equation:
C3H8+xO2→yCO2+zH2O
Step 1: Balance Carbon (C) atoms.
There are 3 carbon atoms on the left side (C3H8). So, there must be 3 carbon atoms on the right side.
y=3
The equation becomes:
C3H8+xO2→3CO2+zH2O
Step 2: Balance Hydrogen (H) atoms.
There are 8 hydrogen atoms on the left side (C3H8). So, there must be 8 hydrogen atoms on the right side. Since each water molecule (H2O) has 2 hydrogen atoms, we need 4 water molecules.
2z=8⟹z=4
The equation becomes:
C3H8+xO2→3CO2+4H2O
Step 3: Balance Oxygen (O) atoms.
Count the total oxygen atoms on the right side:
From 3CO2: 3×2=6 oxygen atoms.
From 4H2O: 4×1=4 oxygen atoms.
Total oxygen atoms on the right side = 6+4=10.
On the left side, we have xO2, which means 2x oxygen atoms.
2x=10⟹x=5
The balanced equation is:
C3H8+5O2→3CO2+4H2O
The value of x is 5.
