Question #1
The salt used in the manufacture of plaster of Paris is:
A. Na₂SO₄
B. CaCO₃
C. CaOCl₂
D. CaSO₄·2H₂O

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Plaster of Paris is prepared by heating gypsum (CaSO₄·2H₂O) at 373 K, removing part of water of crystallization to form CaSO₄·½H₂O. CaCO₃ is limestone.

Question #2
Distilled water is considered the purest form of water because:
A. It is carbonated
B. It contains beneficial minerals
C. It is free from dissolved salts and impurities
D. It has a high pH

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Distilled water is produced by boiling water and condensing the steam, leaving behind non-volatile impurities like salts, minerals, and most contaminants. It is almost pure H₂O. Deionized water also has salts removed. However, it may absorb CO₂ and become slightly acidic. It is used in laboratories and batteries.

Question #3
The root mean square (rms) velocity of a gas is given by the formula:
A. √(8RT/πM)
B. Both A and B
C. √(3RT/M)
D. √(3P/d)

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
The root mean square velocity (urms) of gas molecules can be expressed in multiple equivalent ways. It is √(3RT/M) where R is the gas constant, T is temperature, and M is molar mass. Since P = dRT/M (where d is density), it can also be written as √(3P/d). Both formulas are correct.
