381. Oxide of which of the following will turn red litmus blue?

1. Magnesium
2. Phosphorus
3. Sulphur
4. Carbon

Option “1” is correct
Magnesium oxide is mild base therefore it turn red litmus blue while oxides of Sulphur,Phosporus and Carbon are acidic in nature so they did not effect red litmus but turn blue litmus into red.
382. Which of the following are highly compressible?

1. Solid
2. Liquid
3. Gas
4. Solid and Liquid

Option “3” is correct
In a gas, the particles are very far away from each other, so there is a lot of space for the particles to be compressed down in to. Thus Gases are highly compressable.This is very helpful when transporting gases in containers.
