Sample questions

  1. 1.Hydrogen without any electron is:
    • a.Deuterium
    • b.Protium
    • c.Tritium
    • d.None of these
  2. 2.Which of the following correctly lists the characteristic properties of covalent compounds?
    • A.High melting and boiling points, conduct electricity, soluble in water, usually solids.
    • B.Usually gases or liquids, low melting and boiling points, do not conduct electricity, generally insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents.
    • C.Always solids, conduct electricity in molten state, soluble in water, high melting points.
    • D.Low melting points, conduct electricity in solid state, insoluble in organic solvents, usually liquids.
  3. 3.What is the meaning of a lone pair of electrons?
    • A.A pair of valence electrons that is not shared with another atom and remains localized on one atom.
    • B.A pair of electrons that is shared equally between two atoms in a covalent bond.
    • C.A single unpaired electron that participates in bond formation with another atom.
    • D.A pair of electrons found in the innermost shell of an atom, not involved in bonding.
  4. 4.A pair of electron which is not shared with another atom.
    • a.Lone pair
    • b.Bond pair
    • c.Ionic bond
    • d.Hydrogen bond
  5. 5.Taking MgCl₂ as an electrovalent compound and CCl₄ as a covalent compound, which of the following correctly states a key difference between electrovalent and covalent compounds?
    • A.Electrovalent compounds like MgCl₂ consist of ions and have high melting points, while covalent compounds like CCl₄ consist of molecules and have low melting points.
    • B.Electrovalent compounds are always soluble in organic solvents, while covalent compounds dissolve only in water.
    • C.Covalent compounds conduct electricity in molten state, whereas electrovalent compounds do not conduct electricity at all.
    • D.Electrovalent compounds involve electron sharing, while covalent compounds involve complete transfer of electrons.
