Question #1
Which of the following is an example of a homogeneous catalyst?
A. Nickel in hydrogenation of oils
B. Platinum in Ostwald's process
C. Sulphuric acid in esterification
D. Iron in Haber's process

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
A homogeneous catalyst is in the same phase as the reactants. In the esterification of carboxylic acids with alcohols, liquid sulfuric acid (H2SO4) catalyzes the reaction between liquid reactants. Iron, platinum, and nickel are solid catalysts used for gaseous or liquid reactants, making them heterogeneous catalysts.

Question #2
Which method is used to obtain completely demineralized water?
A. Ion-exchange process
B. Sedimentation
C. Filtration
D. Distillation

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
The ion-exchange process (using cation and anion exchange resins) removes all dissolved cations and anions from water, producing completely demineralized (deionized) water. Distillation removes most impurities but may still contain trace dissolved gases or volatile organics.

Brass is an alloy of:
A. Iron and carbon
B. Copper and tin
C. Copper and zinc
D. Aluminium and copper

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Brass: Cu + Zn. Bronze: Cu + Sn. Steel: Fe + C. Duralumin: Al + Cu + Mg + Mn. Brass is corrosion-resistant and used in plumbing, musical instruments. Zinc content varies (5-45%). Brass with higher zinc is stronger but less ductile. Some brasses contain small amounts of other elements.
