41 Given the equation representing a system at equilibrium: When the concentration of Cl-(aq) is increased, the concentration of Ag+(aq) (1) decreases, and the amount of AgCl(s) increases (2) decreases, and the amount of AgCl(s) decreases (3) increases, and the amount of AgCl(s) increases (4) increases, and the amount of AgCl(s) decreases | 1 | The equilibrium will shift left to consume the Cl-. The AgCl will thus increase as a result. | |
42 Which particle diagram represents a sample of matter that can not be broken down by chemical means? | 4 | Definition of an element. Elements consist of only one type of atom. | |
43 Which formula represents an unsaturated hydrocarbon? | 2 | Hydrocarbons have hydrogen and carbon only | |

44 When the pH of a solution is changed from 4 to 3, the hydronium ion concentration of the solution (1) decreases by a factor of 10 (2) increases by a factor of 10 (3) decreases by a factor of 100 (4) increases by a factor of 100 | 2 | pH goes lower, it is more acidic. Hydronium is increasing.
every pH unit change is a 10 fold change. | |
45 Three samples of the same solution are tested, each with a different indicator. All three indicators, bromthymol blue, bromcresol green, and thymol blue, appear blue if the pH of the solution is(1) 4.7 (2) 6.0 (3) 7.8 (4) 9.9 | 4 | Use the indicator table M. | |
46 A 10.0-milliliter sample of NaOH(aq) is neutralized by 40.0 milliliters of 0.50 M HCl. What is the molarity of the NaOH(aq)? (1) 1.0 M (3) 0.25 M (2) 2.0 M (4) 0.50 M | 2 | Titration MaVa=MbVb (0.50M)(40.0mL)=M(10.omL) | |

47 Radiation is spontaneously emitted from hydrogen-3 nuclei, but radiation is not spontaneously emitted from hydrogen-l nuclei or hydrogen-2 nuclei. Which hydrogen nuclei are stable? (1) nuclei of H-l and H-2, only (2) nuclei of H-l and H-3, only (3) nuclei of H-2 and H-3, only (4) nuclei of H-l, H-2, and H-3 | 1 | stable does not change or emit particles | |
48 Given the equation representing a nuclear reaction in which X represents a nuclide: | 2 | find the missing mass and atomic numbers mass number 232=4-X atomic number 90=2-Z Z will determine the new symbol, use the PT | |

49 After decaying for 48 hours, l/16 of the original mass of a radioisotope sample remains unchanged. What is the half-life of this radioisotope?(1) 3.0 h (3) 12 h (2) 9.6 h (4) 24 h | 3 | 1-->1/2-->1/4-->1/8-->1/16 4 half lives 48hours/4= 12 hrs/halflife | |
50 Which balanced equation represents nuclear fusion? | 1 | memorize it choices 2 and 4 are not nuclear |
