1. From the list of standard electrode potentials shown below, what is the strongest oxidizing and reducing reagents?
 

VO2++ 2H+ + e- V3+ + H2O             Eo = + 0.34 V

S2O32- + 6H+ + 4e- ⇌ 2S + 3H2O        Eo = + 0.47 V

ClO- + H2O + 2e- Cl- + 2OH-            Eo = + 0.89 V

VO2+ + 2H+ + e- VO2+ + H2O          Eo = + 1.00 V

4. A balloon has a volume of 20.0 dm3 at the mean sea level (1 atm and 27 °C). It rises to the top of the mountain, which is 1 km higher from the mean sea level, and explodes. At the top of the mountain, the external pressure is 0.5 atm and the temperature reduces to -23 °C. What is the largest volume of the balloon at the top of the mountain? 
5. What is the pH value of basic salt of 1.0 M Na2X, when Ka1 and Ka2 of H2X = 10-8 and 10-10, respectively?
6. Which of the following substances has the highest boiling point? (Relative atomic mass of H = 1, C = 12, O = 16)
7. A reversible reaction A + B 2C has the equilibrium constant, K, equals to 9. A and B have the same initial concentrations of 0.02 M. What is the concentration of B at equilibrium?
8. Dimethandrolone undecanoate (DMAU) is a compound being developed for use as a potential male hormonal contraceptive, specifically as a birth control pill for men. From the molecular structure of DMAU shown below, which geometry can be found the most in carbon atoms of this molecule?
9. A student carried out an experiment by adding an unknown substance B to a test-tube containing Benedict’s solution. When the test-tube was heated, the solution remained blue. In a separate test-tube containing dilute hydrochloric acid, substance B was added to the test-tube, which was then heated in boiling water for 10 minutes. The solution was neutralised before being added to a test-tube containing Benedict’ solution, which was then heated. Brick red precipitates were observed. What could the unknown B be?
10. Element X has a relative atomic mass 14 times greater than that of tritium and the number of neutrons 22 times greater than that of deuterium. What is the property of the oxide of X?
11. What is the electronic configuration of cobalt in the compound [Co(NH3)4SO4]NO3?
(Proton number of Co = 27)
