Q 11 you guys,It's been asked here for like 3 times and apparently it wasn't answered . can someone answer it for me ?
Can't think of an answer!


11 0.144 g of an aluminium compound X react with an excess of water, to produce a gas. This gas
burns completely in O2 to form H2O and 72 cm3
of CO2 only. The volume of CO2 was measured at
room temperature and pressure.

What could be the formula of X?
A Al 2C3 B Al 3C4 C Al 4C3 D Al 5C3

or :http://sgforums.com/forums/2297/topics/443584

both have some explanations,but I think we can get the answer by common sense: Al has ox. no of 3+ and C is 4- ?

someone plz explain this

P1

Question :
Use of the Data Booklet is relevant to this question.
A washing powder contains sodium hydrogencarbonate, NaHCO3, as one of the ingredients. In a
titration, a solution containing 1.00 g of washing powder requires 7.15 cm3 of 0.100 mol dm–3
sulfuric acid for complete reaction. The sodium hydrogencarbonate is the only ingredient that
reacts with the acid.
What is the percentage by mass of sodium hydrogencarbonate in the washing powder?

Answer : 12

Help >~< Can someone explain it to me please???

With cold you get addition of two alcohol groups at double bond, so both the carbons involved in the double bond become chiral carbons, thus +2.
With hot, you get cleavage of the double bond, producing a ketone group and carboxylic acid group, however the don't turn into chiral carbons. Carbon attached to alcohol group on far left is chiral, but the OH gets oxidised to ketone, so carbon is no longer chiral, thus -1.

If possible please answer the following and if possible leave out all the periodicity questions, questions on groups and on nitrogen and sulphur because I haven't gone through them and don't know whether the questions are from those units. Please do answer the other questions including the one on contact process and haber process.

Answer is B. Why answer can't be D? It is also correct right?

An element X and compound YZ react separately with acid as shown.
X(s) + 2H+(aq) → X2+(aq) + H2(g)
YZ(s) + 2H+(aq) → Y2+(aq) + H2Z(g)
When 1.0 g of either X or YZ is reacted with an excess of acid, the total volume of gas formed is the same.
Which statements are correct?
1. Ar(X) = Mr(YZ)
2. X and Y are metals.
3. X and Y must both be in the same Group of the Periodic Table.

Answer is 1 & 2 why?
