Questions Related to introduction to solutions

A concentrated solution contains high amount of ________.

  1. solvent

  2. solute

  3. both solute and solvent

  4. none of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

A concentrated solution contains the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved because solubility depends on temperature, a solution that is concentrated at one temperature may not be concentrated at a higher temperature.

Which of the following is used as antifreeze on cars for cooling the engine?

  1. $10\%$ (V/V) ethanol solution in water

  2. $35\%$ (V/V) ethanol solution in glycol

  3. $45\%$ (V/V) ethanol solution in glycol

  4. $20\%$ (V/V) ethanol solution in water


Correct Option: A

Which of the following are true solutions?

  1. ENO salt in water

  2. Tomato soup

  3. Aam panna

  4. Filtered black tea


Correct Option: A

If air is taken as a binary solution, the solvent is 

  1. ${N _2}$

  2. ${O _2}$

  3. $C{O _2}$

  4. ${H _2}$


Correct Option: A

If air is taken as a binary solution, the solvent is:

  1. N$ _{ 2 }$

  2. O$ _{ 2 }$

  3. CO$ _{ 2 }$

  4. Ar


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

(A) option is correct.

Explanation:
Air is mainly composed of oxygen and nitrogen gas. Around 78% is nitrogen gas and 21% is oxygen. Since the nitrogen content is more than oxygen so nitrogen will be the solvent and oxygen will be the solute if air is considered as binary solution.

In a glass we are having half filled water. Then we are continuously adding salt to the water and salt is getting dissolved into water. But a state occur when water is not able to dissolve salt. Then the solution is called as 

  1. Unsaturated solution

  2. Saturated solution

  3. Both A and B

  4. Super saturated solution


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

A saturated solution is formed due to maximum concentration of a solute dissolved into solvent. The additional solute will not dissolve in a saturated solution.

What volume would you dilute 0.2 L of a 15 M solution to obtain a 3 M solution?

  1. 1L

  2. 225L

  3. 10L

  4. 0.4L

  5. 0.1L


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
We know that :

$\displaystyle M _1V _1 = M _2V _2 $ 

Given :

$\displaystyle  M _1 = 15 $  M
$\displaystyle V _1 = 0.2 $ L
$\displaystyle  M _2 =3$  M
$\displaystyle  V _2 =$  ????

$\displaystyle  15 \times 0.2 = 3 V _2$
Thus, $\displaystyle  V _2 = 1$  L

Hence, the correct option is A.
