Competency Based Questions
1. A compound 'X' used for drinking, has pH =7. Its acidified solution
undergoes decomposition in presence of electricity to produce gases '
Y' and 'Z' The volume of Y is double than Z. Y is highly combustible
whereas Z is supporter of combustion. identify X. Y & Z and write the
chemical reactions involved.
2. An aqueous solution of metal nitrate P reacts with sodium bromide
solution to form yellow not of compound O which is used in
photography. O on exposure to sunlight undergoes decomposition
reaction to form metal present in P along with reddish brown gas.
Identify P & O. Write the chemical reaction & type of chemical reaction.
3. Bhawana took a pale green substance A in a test tube, and heated it
over the flame of a burner. A brown coloured residue B was formed
along with evolution of two gases with burning smell of sulphur. Identify
A & B. Write the chemical reaction involved.
4. A student took 2-3 g of a substance X in a glass beaker & poured water
over it slowly. He observed bubbles along with hissing noise. The
beaker becomes quite hot. Identify X. What type of reaction is it?
5. A substance X used for coating iron articles is added to a blue solution
of a reddish brown metal Y. The colour of the solution gets discharged.
Identify X and Y & also the type of reaction.
6. A reddish brown vessel developed a green coloured solid X when left
open in air for a long time. When reacted with dil H 2S04. it forms a blue
coloured solution along with brisk effervescence due to colourless &
odourless gas Z. X decomposes to form black coloured oxide Y of a
reddish brown metal along with gas Z. Identify X. Y. & Z.
7. A student has mixed the solutions of lead (II) nitrate and potassium
iodide,
(i) What was the colour of the precipitate formed? Can you name the
compound precipitated?
11. A student burnt a metal A found in the form of ribbon. The ribbon burnt
with a dazzling flame & a white powder B is formed which is basic in
nature. Identify A & B. Write the balanced chemical equation.

tube. The gas evolved was passed through lime water. What change
would be observed in lime water? Write chemical reactions for both the
changes observed.
