Correct Answer: B

Rationale:
To find the moles of potassium bromide in 25 mL of a 4 M KBr solution, we first need to convert the volume from milliliters to liters. 25 mL is equal to 0.025 L.
Then, we use the formula moles = molarity x volume in liters. Substituting the values, moles = 4 M x 0.025 L = 0.1 mol.
Therefore, there are 0.1 moles of KBr in 25 mL of a 4 M solution.
Choice A, 0.035 mol, is incorrect as it does not properly calculate the moles.
Choice C, 0.18 mol, and choice D, 1.6 mol, are also incorrect as they are not the result of the correct calculation based on the given molarity and volume.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, lye. Lye, also known as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), is a strong base that forms hydroxide ions (OH-) when placed in water. When lye dissolves in water, it dissociates into sodium ions (Na+) and hydroxide ions, making it an alkaline substance. Lemon juice, battery acid, and vinegar do not form hydroxide ions when placed in water. Lemon juice contains citric acid, battery acid contains sulfuric acid, and vinegar contains acetic acid, none of which produce hydroxide ions when dissolved in water.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solvent. In the case of an aqueous sugar solution, the molarity would be expressed as moles of sugar per liter of solution. This is because molarity is a measurement of the concentration of a solute in a solution based on the number of moles present in a given volume of the solution.
Therefore, the correct answer is D.

Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because the molarity is specifically defined in terms of moles of solute per liter of solution, not in grams per milliliter or grams per liter. Molarity is a unit of concentration that relates the amount of solute to the volume of the solution, not the mass of the solute.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The electron configuration of nitrogen is determined by its atomic number, which is 7. Nitrogen has 7 electrons. Following the order of filling orbitals, the electron configuration for nitrogen is 1s² 2s² 2p³. This means the first energy level is filled with 2 electrons in the 1s orbital, the second energy level is filled with 2 electrons in the 2s orbital, and 3 electrons in the 2p orbital. Each orbital can hold a specific number of electrons, and nitrogen, with its 7 electrons, fits this configuration.
Choice A is incorrect because it does not account for all the electrons in the nitrogen atom.
Choice B is incorrect as it only represents 6 electrons, not the 7 electrons in nitrogen.
Choice D is incorrect as it represents 8 electrons, which is not the correct electron configuration for nitrogen.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In a single displacement reaction, an active element displaces a less active element in a compound. This process involves one element replacing another in a compound, resulting in the formation of a new compound. Option A is incorrect because a single displacement reaction does not involve the decomposition of a compound into two substances. Option C is incorrect because it describes a precipitation reaction, not a single displacement reaction. Option D is incorrect because it describes oxidation-reduction reactions, not specifically single displacement reactions.
