- Q1What is a compound?A pure substance made up of two or more elements chemically combined togetherA chemical bond formed by the attraction between atomsA pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substancesA mixture of substances that can be separated by physical methods30s
- Q2What defines a saturated organic compound?A compound with multiple functional groupsA compound that has no double or triple bondsA compound that contains only carbon and hydrogenA compound that has at least one double bond30s
- Q3Which of the following is an example of a pure substance?Personal care productAirGoldSalt water30s
- Q4What is a hydrocarbon?A type of inorganic compoundA pure substance with no elements combinedCompounds that contain only hydrogen and carbon atomsA compound that contains oxygen30s
- Q5What distinguishes physical properties from chemical properties?Physical properties can be determined without changing the substanceChemical properties describe the appearance of a substancePhysical properties involve the ability to attract waterChemical properties can be observed without testing the substance30s
- Q6What is the role of a functional group in a compound?It is a type of chemical bondIt determines the physical state of a substanceIt is an atom or a group of atoms responsible for most of the chemical propertiesIt is the simplest form of a compound30s
- Q7Which of the following best describes a mixture?A single substance with unique propertiesConsists of two or more pure substances which have not chemically combinedA pure element that cannot be broken downA compound formed by chemical bonds30s
- Q8What is a non-polar chemical compound?A compound with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen that does not have a charge distributionA compound with a positive and negative endA compound that only contains carbon and hydrogenA compound that is soluble in water30s
- Q9What is an example of a physical property of oil?Ability to be chemically combined with other substancesAppearance as a liquidChemical reactivity with oxygenAbility to attract water30s
- Q10What is the main difference between organic and inorganic compounds?Organic compounds can be broken down into simpler substancesOrganic compounds contain carbon, while inorganic compounds do notOrganic compounds are always liquids, while inorganic are solidsInorganic compounds only contain metals30s
- Q11What is a pure substance?A mixture of various organic and inorganic compounds.A substance that can be broken down into simpler forms.Two or more substances that have chemically combined.A single substance that has no other substances mixed with it.30s
- Q12Which of the following is an example of an inorganic compound?HydrocarbonZinc oxideIsoamyl methoxy cinnamateSaturated organic compound30s
- Q13What defines a hydrocarbon?Compounds that lack carbon but have hydrogen.Compounds that contain only hydrogen and carbon atoms.Compounds with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.Compounds that contain oxygen and nitrogen.30s
- Q14What distinguishes saturated organic compounds from unsaturated ones?Unsaturated compounds have only single bonds.Saturated compounds are only found as liquids.Saturated organic compounds have no double or triple bonds.Saturated compounds attract water better.30s
- Q15What are functional groups responsible for?The atomic structure of compounds.The stability of a mixture.Most of the chemical properties of a compound.The physical appearance of a compound.30s
