| Statement I: | According to Lewis's concept, H2O acts as an amphoteric substance. |
| Statement II: | H2O act as an acid on reaction with NH3, while it acts as a base on reaction with H2S. |
| 1. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct. |
| 2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect. |
| 3. | Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect. |
| 4. | Statement I is incorrect and Statement II is correct. |
| Assertion (A): | The amphoteric nature of water is explained by using Lewis acid/base concept. |
| Reason (R): | Water acts as an acid with \(\mathrm {NH}_3\) and as a base with \(\mathrm {H_2S}\). |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
100 mL of 0.1 M HCl is taken in a beaker and to it 100 mL of 0.1 M NaOH is added in steps of 2 mL and the pH is continuously measured. Which of the following graphs correctly depicts the change in pH?
| 1. | ![]() |
2. | ![]() |
| 3. | ![]() |
4. | ![]() |
Consider the following statements
| a. | The correct order of increasing acidic strength is CH4 < NH3 < HF < H2O. |
| b. | The ionic product of water is temperature dependent. |
| c. | A monobasic acid with Ka = 10–5 has a pH = 5. The degree of dissociation of this acid is 50%. |
The correct statements are:
1. (a) and (b)
2. (a), (b) and (c)
3. (a) and (c)
4. (b) and (c)
