Questions and Answers

Why is distillation an effective method for purifying seawater?

  • Distillation converts the salts into gases that escape into the atmosphere.
  • Distillation uses a chemical reaction to break down the salt compounds.
  • Distillation neutralizes the harmful salts present in seawater.
  • Distillation involves heating the seawater to evaporate the water, leaving the salts behind. (correct)

In the context of atmospheric chemistry, what is the primary role of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)?

  • CFCs catalyze the breakdown of ozone molecules in the stratosphere. (correct)
  • CFCs reflect harmful UV radiation away from the Earth.
  • CFCs absorb excess carbon dioxide, reducing global warming.
  • CFCs help in the formation of the ozone layer.

Why does chlorine act as a bleaching agent in the presence of water?

  • Chlorine directly oxidizes the colored substances.
  • Chlorine reacts with water to form hydrochloric acid, which breaks down the colored substances.
  • Chlorine dehydrates the colored substances, causing them to lose their color.
  • Chlorine reacts with water to form hypochlorous acid, which oxidizes colored substances. (correct)
