1. ANSWER: [D] Explanation: The chemical reaction between dilute hydrochloric acid and granulated zinc is represented as: Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂ ↑ The product zinc chloride, does not turn the reaction milky. Hydrogen gas evolved is colourless and odourless and released by the formation of bubbles. HencRead more

    ANSWER: [D]

    Explanation: The chemical reaction between dilute hydrochloric acid and granulated zinc is represented as:

    Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂ ↑

    The product zinc chloride, does not turn the reaction milky. Hydrogen gas evolved is colourless and odourless and released by the formation of bubbles. Hence, your answer will be option [D].

  2. ANSWER: [B] Explanation: As detergent are basic in nature, the concentration of Hydroxide ions will be high and concentration of hydronium Ions will be less. [Note: When bases are dissolved in water they dissociate into Hydroxide ions]

    ANSWER: [B]

    Explanation: As detergent are basic in nature, the concentration of Hydroxide ions will be high and concentration of hydronium Ions will be less.

    [Note: When bases are dissolved in water they dissociate into Hydroxide ions]

  4. ANSWER: [B] Explanation: The given reaction is the reaction between Nitric Acid and Calcium Hydroxide to form Calcium Nitrate (a salt and water). The reaction between an acid and a base is known as “neutralization reaction”. It also involves formation of new compounds by the exchange of ions betweenRead more

    ANSWER: [B]

    Explanation: The given reaction is the reaction between Nitric Acid and Calcium Hydroxide to form Calcium Nitrate (a salt and water). The reaction between an acid and a base is known as “neutralization reaction”. It also involves formation of new compounds by the exchange of ions between reactants; it is also called “Double Displacement Reaction”.

  5. ANSWER: [D] Explanation: Auxins are plant hormones that accumulate on the shaded side of the shoot when exposed to light. This higher concentration stimulates cells on the dark side to elongate more, causing the shoot to bend towards the light. This response is called phototropism. Cytokinins → promRead more

    ANSWER: [D]

    Explanation: Auxins are plant hormones that accumulate on the shaded side of the shoot when exposed to light. This higher concentration stimulates cells on the dark side to elongate more, causing the shoot to bend towards the light. This response is called phototropism.

    • Cytokinins → promote cell division.
    • Gibberellins → help in stem elongation and seed germination.
    • Adrenaline → an animal hormone, not a plant hormone.

    Hence, the bending of shoots towards light is controlled by auxins.
