DPP # 01 TOPIC : COMBUSTION AND FLAME CHEMISTRY

I. OBJECTIVE TYPE QUESTIONS :


1. Which zone is the hottest part of candle flame ?
(1) outer zone (2) inner zone (3) middle zone (4) None of these
2. Which is a zone of non combustion ?
(1) Blue zone (2) Dark zone (3) Luminous zone (4) All of these
3. Which is not used as fire extinguisher ?
(1) Water (2) Carbon dioxide (3) Oxygen (4) All of these
4. Hydrogen gas has the highest calorific value i.e.,m 150 kJ/kg. yet it is not used as a fuel. The
reasons are : (1) it is explosive in nature (2) it causes storage problem
(3) it causes transportation problem (4) all of the above
5. A family consumes 14.5 kg of LPG in 28 days. Calculate the average energy consumed per
day, if the
calorific value of L.P.G. is 55 KJ/g
(1) 26480 KJ/day (2) 28482 KJ/day (3) 24842 KJ/day (4) 24882 KJ/day
6. Match the following -
(1) CH4 (i) Neither combustible nor supports combustion
(2) CO2 (ii) Combustible
(3) N2 (iii) Supports combustion
(4) O2 (iv) Extinguishes fire
Which of the following indicates the correct match ?
(1) 1 - i ; 2 - ii ; 3 - iii ; 4 - iv (2) 1 - ii ; 2 - iv ; 3 - i ; 4 - iii
(3) 1 - ii ; 2 - iii ; 3 - i ; 4 - iv (4) 1 - iii ; 2 - iv ; 3 - ii ; 4 - i
7. Nitya was a very naughty girl. One day she made a paper cup by folding a sheet of paper.
Then she poured about 50 ml water in the cup and heated the cup over a candle flame. To her
surprise the paper cup did not burn. It is because
(1) in the presence of water, the ignition temperature of the paper cannot be reached.
(2) the candle flame does not provide sufficient heat to raise the temperature of paper to its
ignition temperature.
(3) air is not present at the point of contact of the flame with the paper.
(4) the flame of the candle is not luminous.

(1) antimony trisulphide and potassium chlorate
(2) antimony chloride and potassium sulphide
(3) antimony carbonate
(4) potassium sulphide
10. When a frying pan containing cooking oil is kept for long on a burning stove then cooking oil
catches fire because-
(1) Its temperature is lower than its ignition temperature
(2) Its temperature is reached to its ignition temperature
(3) Its temperature is lower than critical temperature
(4) Its temperature is higher than critical temperature
11. In which zone of a candle flame does complete combustion take place ?
(1) Inner (2) Outer (3) Middle (4) All three zones
12. When oxygen supply is increased in a bunsen burner, the colour of the flame changes-
(1) from blue to yellow (2) from yellow to blue
(3) from blue to red (4) from yellow to red
13. A luminous flame appears
(1) Red (2) Green (3) Yellow (4) Blue
