The reaction between strong acid and strong base gives:
(a) acidic salt
(b) basic salt
(c) both a and b
(d) Neutral salt
Similar questions: The reaction between strong acid and weak base (2083 · Science Model Set D)
Answer
(d) Neutral salt
A strong acid and a strong base give a salt whose ions do not hydrolyse (for example NaCl), so the solution is neutral with pH 7.

Which of the following statement is correct?
(a) Na is more reactive than K
(b) Ca is less reactive than Mg
(c) O has larger atomic size than S
(d) none of the above
Answer
(d) none of the above
Na is less reactive than K (K lies below Na in group 1). Ca is more reactive than Mg (Ca lies below Mg in group 2). O is smaller than S, since atomic size increases down a group. So (a), (b) and (c) are all false.

Which of the following statement is correct?
(a) Na is more reactive than li due to more electron
(b) Both a and b
(c) F is more reactive because it is metal
(d) None of the above
Answer
(a) Na is more reactive than Li due to more electron
Reactivity of alkali metals increases down the group. Na has its outer electron in a higher shell, farther from the nucleus and more shielded, so it is lost more easily than in Li. The other options are wrong: fluorine is a non-metal, and option (b) is meaningless.
