Solution
On evaporation to dryness, 250 cm3 of saturated solution of salt X with relative molar mass 101 gave 50.5g of the. What is the soluility of the salt?
A
1.0 mol dm-3
B
2.0 mol dm-3
C

D
5.0 moldm-3
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Chemical Principles & Mechanism
50.5g 0f salt X is contained in 250cm3,
what mass of X is contained in 1000cm3
= (50.5 x 1000) \div 250 = 202g
no of moles of salt x = mass\div molar mass
= 202\div 101 = 2.0mol/dm3

Reaction Rates & Chemical Equilibrium
Solution
Consider the following reaction equation:
X(g) + Y(g) ⇌ XY(g); ∆H = + 220KJ mol-1 If the temperature of the system is increased, the
A
backward reaction would be favoured
B
forward reaction would favoured
C
reaction would stop
D
reaction would be at equilibrium
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Chemical Principles & Mechanism
According to Le Chatelier's principle, in an endothermic reaction (whenever delta H = +), an increase in temperature will cause the equilibrium position to shift to the right, thereby leading to the formation of more of the product i.e The forward reaction will be favoured while a decrease in temperature will cause the equilibrium position to shift to the left. Which implies the backward reaction will be favoured. The reverse is the case in an exothermic reaction ( whenever delta H = - ). Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
