Hydrogen and it's compounds!

Chemistry Level 5

Which of the following statements are correct?

  1. Hydrogen constitutes 70% of the mass of earth's crust.

  2. In hydrated C u S O X 4 \ce {CuSO4} ,only one molecule of water is present as interstitial water , rest 4 are in co-ordination.

  3. Size of H + H^+ is 1.5 × 10 3 p m 1.5 × {10}^{-3} pm which is exceptionally high.

  4. Tritium is Radioactive which emits low energy α \alpha particles ( t 1 2 = 12.33 y r s ) {t}_{\frac {1}{2}} = 12.33 yrs ) .

  5. The reaction of C O CO with steam in presence of iron peroxide gives C O 2 {CO}_{2} and H 2 {H}_{2} and is called water gas shift reaction.

  6. H 2 {H}_{2} is insoluble in water.

  7. Cerium hydride has lattice different from parent metal.

  8. Ice crystallises to cubic form at atmospheric temperature and condenses to hexagonal form at very low temperature

  9. Magnesium hydrogen Carbonate on boiling gives Magnesium Carbonate.

  10. Hydrogen peroxide has a planar structure .

Enter your answer as the product of the correct option numbers .

Clarification If 2, 3, 5 are correct then enter answer as 2 × 3 × 5 = 30.

Here is the explanation.

  1. In earth's crust, it only occupies 15.4%

  2. It has one molecule of water as Hydrogen bonded water , not interstitial water.

  3. It is exceptionally low.

  4. It emit's low energy β \beta particles.

  5. The catalyst used in water gas shift reaction is Iron Chromate.

  6. Correct.

  7. Ni, Ac, Pd & Ce hydride have same lattice as parent metals .

  8. Ice crystallises in hexagonal form at one atmosphere and condenses in cubic form at very low temperature .

  9. Magnesium hydrogen Carbonate give Magnesium hydroxide on boiling , Calcium hydrogen Carbonate gives calcium carbonate on boiling.

  10. Hydrogen peroxide has a non-planar structure (book - like).

That's why inorganic is fun 😉

I Dont see any fun in this just they are facts to be remembered (most of them ) :P

Fun is that u need to know everything , if u know a reaction but not the catalyst , then a loss

Right! . :)

Bro actually i was not able to solve it correctly but got it correct due to non availability of options.

i was able to find that 1,3,4,5,10,7 are wrong.

i thought 2,6 are correct and had doubt in 8,9. but luckily no option satisfied the condition of product :P

pt.8 in solution.... Why the ice will CONDENSE at low temperature ?

Yr question's answer - For changing phase 2 factors are majorly responsible i.e. Pressure and Temperature.

So reduce the pressure to very low and you will require a bit lower temperature to change phase from vapour to solid!

The value for this case is about -80°C.
