Q3. A C

When hydrochloric acid is added to aluminium carbonate, one of the expected products would be: aluminium. chlorine. B D carbon dioxide. aluminium hydroxide.

Q4.

When an acid was added to a solid, a reaction occurred that produced a clear solution and a colourless gas. The gas popped when a lighted match was placed in the mouth of the test-tube. The solid must have been: magnesium. B hydrogen. marble. C a metal. D

Q5.

A person took a sample of swimming pool water to be tested and was advised to add some sodium bicarbonate to the water. The water in the pool must have been: 1

A too acidic. green. Q6.

A student has a white powder that could be magnesium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide or magnesium oxide. He tries to identify the powder by adding sulfuric acid to some of the white powder. When this is done a colourless gas is evolved and a clear solution remains. The equation to represent this reaction could be: Mg + HSO MgSO + H MgCO + HSO MgSO + CO + HO Mg(OH) + HSO MgSO + 2HO MgO + HSO MgSO + HO
