Question #1
Which of the following is a method to remove permanent hardness of water?
A. Adding washing soda
B. Cooling
C. Filtration
D. Boiling

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Permanent hardness (due to CaSO₄ etc.) can be removed by adding Na₂CO₃, which precipitates CaCO₃. Boiling only removes temporary hardness. Ion exchange and calgon also work.

Question #2
The number of protons in ¹⁸O is:
A. 16
B. 10
C. 18
D. 8

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Oxygen atomic number is 8, thus 8 protons. Isotope ¹⁸O has 8 protons + 10 neutrons = 18 mass number.

Question #3
Which of the following is a displacement reaction?
A. NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O
B. 2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
C. 2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂
D. CuSO₄ + Fe → FeSO₄ + Cu

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
In displacement reactions, a more reactive element displaces a less reactive one from its compound. Here, iron (more reactive than copper) displaces copper from copper sulfate. A is combination; B is decomposition; D is neutralization (double displacement).
