- Question
Chloroform used as anaesthetic should be preserved in the dark in tightly stoppered bottles because otherwise
Options- A. it becomes coloured
- B. it gets evaporated in air
- C. it gets oxidised to phosgene
- D. it gets decomposed to chloropicrin
- Correct Answer
- it gets oxidised to phosgene
ExplanationChloroform, is easily oxidised to the highly poisonous gas known as phosgene or carbonyl chloride COCl2. Hence if it is used as anaesthetic it should be kept free from sunlight and air.

Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
1 mole of CO2 contain 12gms of carbon and 44 gms of CO2
therefore 24 gms of carbon is present in 88 gms of CO2 or 2 moles of CO2
Correct Answer: sum of neutrons and electrons
Explanation:
Atomic weight=number of neutrons+number of protons
Correct Answer: an alpha particle
Correct Answer: a mixture
Correct Answer: Hydrogen
Correct Answer: sulphur
Explanation:
In vulcanization, cruder rubber is heated with 3% sulphur at about for for 2-3 hours.
Vulcanised rubber is a vastly improved product.
Correct Answer: beta particle
Correct Answer: Scintillation counter
Correct Answer: 273 K
Explanation:
K is degree kelvin
Zero K corresponds to -273 K = C + 273
The freezing point of water being 0 C, on the kelvin scale it is 0 C + 273 K
Correct Answer: The atoms share or transfer electrons
Explanation:
All chemistry is based on sharing electrons. A chemical bond forms when two atoms transfer or share outer electrons to complete their outer shells.
