Sample Chemistry Placement Exam Questions 2024 Solved Correctly To Score A+
Answer: Oxygen
Aluminum forms a +3 ion. In order for the formula unit Al ₂X₃ to be electrically neutral,
the element X must form a -2 ion. Nonmetals in the oxygen column do this. Of these elements, only oxygen is a diatomic gas. Answer- Aluminum reacts with element X to form a compound with the formula A ₂X₃. Element X exists as diatomic molecules, X₂, in the gaseous state at normal temperature and pressure. Element
X must be?
Answer: 5

Answer: NaCl
HCl, hydrochloric acid, is a strong acid. NH ₃, ammonia, is a weak base. In a solution of NaHCO₃, sodium hydrogen carbonate (baking soda), the hydrogen carbonate ion,
HCO₃- , acts as a base. Neither the sodium ion Na+, nor the chloride ion, Cl - , which
form when NaCl is dissolved in water, has significant acidic or basic properties. Answer- Which of the following species is neither acidic nor basic when dissolved in water
Answer: 8.3 x 10 ⁸ The "calculator answer" is 8.2695.... x 10 . When the numbers in the numerator are ⁸
subtracted the result, 8.53, must be rounded to one decimal place, or 8.5. Since this number has two significant figures, the result when it is divided by a number with 5 significant figures is limited to two significant figures. Answer- To the correct number
of significant figures, the result of the following calculation
[(11.13 - 2.6) x 10 ]/[103.15 x 10− ] ⁴ ⁶
should be reported as
