Explanation

• A pH meter is an electronic instrument used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a liquid solution by determining hydrogen-ion activity.
• Glass electrode: Senses hydrogen ions in the liquid.
• Reference electrode: Provides a stable electrical voltage.
• Meter display: Converts the voltage difference into a clear pH number

Explanation

• Gravimetric analysis is a quantitative analytical method.
• It determines the amount of an analyte by measuring its mass.
• The measured mass is used to calculate the amount of the original substance.

Explanation

Filtration separates solid particles from a liquid or gas based on particle size.

• A porous material (filter) allows fluid and small particles through
• The liquid that passes through is called the filtrate
• The solid left behind on the filter is called the residue
• It works only when the solid particles are larger than the filter's pores

Examples:

• Coffee filter separating grounds from liquid coffee

Explanation

• Based on differences in boiling points
• Lower-boiling-point liquid vaporizes first
• Vapor is collected and condensed back into a liquid
• Higher-boiling-point liquids remain behind
• Used to separate and purify liquid mixtures (e.g., water and ethanol)

Explanation

• Solvent extraction is controlled by the Distribution Law (Nernst Distribution Law).
• It describes how a solute distributes between two immiscible liquids.
• At equilibrium, the concentration ratio remains constant.
• This law governs equilibrium in extraction processes.

Explanation

• Chromatography mainly works on the principle of adsorption.
• Different substances are adsorbed to different extents on a stationary phase.
• This causes separation of components in a mixture.

Explanation

• Haber process is used to manufacture ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen.
• Nitrogen is obtained from air, but hydrogen is usually obtained from natural gas or water, not both from air.
• Ammonia is formed as a compound.
• The reaction involves gases under high pressure and temperature.
• Therefore, the correct statement is about physical state of reactants and product.

Explanation

• Pressure can be defined as the force acting per unit area.
• The unit of pressure is N/m² (Newton per square meter).
• It is also called Pascal (Pa).
• In SI base units kg⋅m−1⋅s−2
• Derivations from other quantities: p = F / A
• Dimension unit: M L^−1 T^-2.

Oxidation is the chemical process of:

• Losing electrons
• Oxidation state increases
• Always paired with reduction (together form redox)
• Reducing agent gets oxidized (it gives up the electrons)

Additional information 

Reduction:

• Gain electrons
• Oxidation state lowers
• Always paired with oxidation (redox)
• Oxidizing agent gets reduced
