1. The number of atoms in 0.5 mole of glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is:

Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: (c) 3.011 × 10²⁴

Explanation:
1 molecule glucose = 24 atoms → 0.5 mole = 0.5 × 24 × 6.022 × 10²³ = 3.011 × 10²⁴
2. The oxidation state of sulphur in H₂S₂O₈ is:

Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: (a) +6

Explanation:
Peroxodisulphuric acid has S in +6 state
3. The pH of a buffer solution containing 0.1 M CH₃COOH and 0.1 M CH₃COONa is (Ka = 1.8×10⁻⁵):

Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: (a) 4.74

Explanation:
pH = pKa + log([salt]/[acid]) = 4.74 + log(1) = 4.74
