      - F acidic it is non –metal oxide.
  28.    
    1. CnH2n, where n = No. of carbon atoms
    2. 70
    3. C5H10, CH3CH=CHCH2CH3
      OR CH3CH2CHCH2= CH2
  29.   
    1. Hydrocarbon. 1
    2. Black specks is carbon
      Colourless gas is steam 1 3
      Hydrocarbon burn in air to form carbon ½ and water½
  30.   
    1. NaCl(aq)AgNO3(aq) → NaNO3(aq) + AgCl(s)
      Moles of AgCl= Mass
                            R.F.M
      = 2.36/143.5
      = 0.016446moles
      Mole ratio NaCl : AgCl
                         1  : 1
      Moles of NaCl = 0.61446moles
      Mass of NaCl = RFM x moles
      = 58.5 x 0.016446
      = 0.962091g
      Mass of solvent (water) = 2.63 – 0.962091
      = 1.667909g
      1.667909g of water dissolves 0.962091g of NaCl
      100g of water dissolves = 100 x 0.962091g
                                              1.667909
      = 57.68/100g of water
    2. 24000cm3 = 1mol
      80cm3 = 80x1
                   2400
      = 0.00333moles
  31.   
    1. CH3CH = CHCH3 – But-2-ene
    2. 2– methyl 1 prop-2-ene
    3. CH2 = CHCH2CH3 – But-1-ene
  32. Octane
    or CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3
  33.   
    1. Existence of same molecular formula but different structural formula √1
    2.
