  1. Amines have a characteristic fishy smell 
  2. The industrial preparation of HNO3 is carried out using Ostwald's process
  3. Heavy chemicals are those chemicals used in large quantities in Industries.
  4. The most used chemical in industries is H2SO4.
  5. NaOH is used for making soap
  6. Fine chemicals are not produced in large quantities. However, they are produced with a high degree of accuracy, e.g AgBr. Fine chemicals include drugs.
  7. Thermite process is used for Welding broken ends of metal parts.
  8. Bessemer process is used for the production of steel
  9. Acheson process is used to produce Graphite
  10. Nigerian Crude oil is called sweet because of its low sulphur content.
  11. Alkanals can be oxidized but Alkanones cannot, why? It is because Alkanals have an oxidizable hydrogen atom attached to the carbonyl carbon but Alkanones do not.
  12. Newspaper appear yellow after prolonged exposure to the Atmosphere because the bleaching action of SO2 from which they were made is reversed by atmospheric oxidation.
  13. Atoms with the same mass number but different atomic numbers are referred to as Isobars 
  14. The lithosphere is composed of rocks and soil
  15. Aromatic compounds are those with one or more benzene rings.
  16. Aliphatic compounds are those with open chains as well as cyclic compounds that do not have benzene ring in their structure.
  17. Hydrocarbons are compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen only.
  18. Water is not added to acid because it could cause an explosion. Addition of water to acid is violently exothermic.
  19. Bunsen Burner is used for heating and for exposing items to flame
  20. Methane is called fire damp because it is the main cause of explosion in poorly ventilated coal mines.
  21. There are basically two types of radioactivity viz natural and artificial radioactivity
  22. Oxygen is the most abundant element in the earth crust.
  23. Nigerian crude oil is called light because it has a low density due to its composition of low molecular weight hydrocarbons.
  24. An Oxide that dissolves in water to form acid is called Acid Anhydride
  25. Metal is an element that ionizes by the loss of (electrons)
