ICSE Class 10 Electrolysis — Mock Test (2027)

Free online mock test for Electrolysis (ICSE Class 10 Chemistry) — 20 competency-based questions based on the latest CISCE 2027 syllabus, with instant marking. Try the samples below, then take the full test free.

What to expect: This mock test covers key concepts from the Electrolysis chapter — including application-based and competency-focused questions aligned with how ICSE actually sets the paper.

Tip: Attempt without notes first to identify gaps, then review explanations for any wrong answers. Retake after a few days for best retention.

Sample questions

  1. 1.Which of the following correctly describes the key characteristics of electrolysis?
    • A.Cations migrate to the anode, anions to the cathode, and products form in the electrolyte solution.
    • B.Electrons gained at the cathode equal those lost at the anode, only metals are liberated at both electrodes, and AC causes electrolysis.
    • C.Cations migrate to the cathode, anions to the anode; products form at electrode surfaces; only hydrogen and metals are liberated at the cathode; mass of substance produced is proportional to electricity passed (Faraday's Law).
    • D.Electrolysis occurs with alternating current, non-metals are liberated at the cathode, and the mass of substance produced is independent of electricity passed.
  2. 2.How is the electrical conductivity of a solution related to its ionic concentration?
    • A.Conductivity decreases as ionic concentration increases.
    • B.Conductivity is directly proportional to ionic concentration.
    • C.Conductivity is independent of ionic concentration.
    • D.Conductivity is inversely proportional to ionic concentration.
  3. 3.Which of the following is NOT a condition for achieving good electroplating?
    • A.Using a direct current for the process.
    • B.Applying a high current for a short duration.
    • C.Thoroughly cleaning the article to be electroplated.
    • D.Using an electrolyte with a high concentration of metal ions.
  4. 4.Complete and balance the following reaction: $$\mathrm{Ag^+} + \underline{\longrightarrow} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Ag}$$
    • A.$$1\mathrm{e^-}$$
    • B.$$2\mathrm{e^-}$$
    • C.$$1\mathrm{H^+}$$
    • D.$$1\mathrm{OH^-}$$
  5. 5.During the electrolysis of molten lead bromide, which of the following takes place?
    • A.Bromine is released at the cathode
    • B.Lead is deposited at the anode
    • C.Bromine ions gain electrons
    • D.Lead is deposited at the cathode
