Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of an ideal gas? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Question
Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of an ideal gas?
A. Particles have no volume
B. No intermolecular forces
C. Obeys PV = nRT at all conditions
D. Particles have strong attractive forces
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Ideal gas assumptions: particles have negligible volume, no intermolecular forces, and elastic collisions. Real gases deviate due to finite molecular size and attractions. At high pressure and low temperature, real gases deviate significantly; van der Waals equation corrects. So having strong attractive forces is not an ideal gas property. Ideal gas law PV = nRT is a limiting law.

Correct Answer: Option C

Explanation:
The magnetic quantum number (m) can only take integer values ranging from -l to +l. For n=3, l can be 2 (a d-orbital). If l=2, the possible values for m are -2, -1, 0, +1, +2. The value m=-3 is outside this range, making this set of quantum numbers impossible.

Correct Answer: Option C

Explanation:
Heating coal in the absence of air (destructive distillation) produces coke (solid residue, high carbon), coal tar (mixture of aromatic compounds), ammoniacal liquor, and coal gas (H₂, CH₄, CO). Coke is used in blast furnace. Coal tar is a source of aromatic chemicals and pitch. Coal gas was used for lighting historically.

Correct Answer: Option B

Explanation:
Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) is used in soda-acid fire extinguishers. It reacts with sulfuric acid to produce CO₂, which smothers the fire. Also, dry powder extinguishers use NaHCO₃. It is also baking soda.
