Which of the following is an example of a gel?
A. Fog
B. Cheese
C. Milk
D. Smoke
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
A gel is a type of colloid where the dispersed phase is a liquid and the dispersed medium is a solid. Cheese, butter, and jellies are classic examples of gels. Milk is an emulsion (liquid in liquid), while fog and smoke are aerosols.

Question #1
Which gas law is expressed by P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂ for a fixed mass of gas?
A. Combined gas law
B. Charles' law
C. Gay-Lussac's law
D. Boyle's law

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
The combined gas law integrates Boyle's (P₁V₁ = P₂V₂), Charles' (V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂), and Gay-Lussac's (P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂) laws into one equation: P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂ for a fixed amount of gas. It assumes ideal behavior. When one variable is constant, the respective individual law can be derived. For changing conditions, this combined form is useful. For n moles, PV = nRT.

Question #2
A catalyst increases the rate of a reaction by:
A. Changing the equilibrium constant
B. Providing an alternative path with lower activation energy
C. Increasing the temperature
D. Increasing the activation energy

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
A catalyst lowers the activation energy barrier by providing a different reaction mechanism. This allows more reactant molecules to have sufficient energy to react. It does not change the thermodynamics (ΔH, equilibrium constant) or get consumed in the reaction. Enzymes are biological catalysts.

Question #3
Which of the following is a fossil fuel?
A. Biogas
B. Solar energy
C. Hydrogen
D. Natural gas

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Natural gas (mainly methane) is a fossil fuel formed from ancient organic matter. Biogas is a renewable fuel from recent organic waste. Hydrogen is an energy carrier, not a fossil fuel. Solar energy is renewable.
