Q7. Which one of the following catalysts is used in hydrogenation of vegetable oils? / वनस्पति तेलों के हाइड्रोजनीकरण के लिए निम्न में से कौन सा उत्प्रेरक उपयोग किया जाता है?
(a) Zinc / जस्ता
(b) Platinum / प्लेटिनम
(c) Nickel / निकेल
(d) Iron / लोहा
Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. During hydrogenation, the vegetable oils are reacted with hydrogen gas . A nickel catalyst is used to speed up the reaction. The double bond is converted to single bond in the reaction. In this way, the unsaturated fats can be made into saturated fats.

Q8. What is the shape of Sulphur hexafluoride molecule? / सल्फर हेक्साफ्लोराइड अणु का आकार क्या है?
(a) Trigonal pyramid / त्रिकोणीय पिरामिड
(b) Octahedral / अष्टभुजाकार
(c) Planar / प्लानर

Show Answer
Ans.(b)
Sol. Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) is an inorganic, colourless, odourless and non-flammable compound. SF6 has an octahedral shape. It has 12 electrons around the central Sulphur atom. This means there are six electron pairs arranged in an octahedral shape.

Q9. Which is not a Lewis acid? / इनमें से कौन सा लुईस एसिड नहीं है?
