What is Sedimentation , Decantation, Filtration?
The given mixture contains three constituents A, B and C. The constituent A is a yellow coloured, solid element which dissolved in a liquid D. The constituent B is a blue coloured salt which is insoluble in liquid D but dissolves easily in another liquid E. The constitudent C is a liquid which is used in cooking food and forms a solid fat on hydrogenation.(a) What do you think could (i) constituent A, and (ii) liquid D be?(b) What could (i) constituent B, and(ii) liquid E be?(c) What could liquid C be?(d) How will you separate the mixture containing A, B and C?
Choose the correct statement of the following(a) Conversion of solid into vapours without passing through the liquid state is called sublimation.(b) Conversion of vapours into solid without passing through the liquid state is called vaporisation.(c) Conversion of vapours into solid without passing through the liquid state is called freezing.(d) Conversion of solid into liquid is called sublimation.
The conversion of a solid into vapours without passing through the liquid state is called :(a) vaporization (b) fusion(c) sublimation (d) freezing
Sewage is mainly a(a) liquid waste(b) solid waste(c) gaseous waste(d) mixture of solid and gas
(a) Conversion of solid to vapour is called sublimation. Name the term used to denote the conversion of vapour to solid.(b) Conversion of solid state to liquid state is called fusion; what is meant by latent heat of fusion?
A, B and C are all liquids. Liquid A has a comparatively low boiling point. On heating, liquid A vaporises completely without leaving behind any residue. Liquid A is being used increasingly as a fuel in motor vehicles either alone or by mixing with petrol. Liquid B has a very high boiling point. It also vaporises completely on heating, without leaving any residue. Liquid B is a conductor of electricity and used in making thermometers. Liquid C has a moderate boiling point. On heating, liquid C vaporises leaving behind a white solid D which is used in cooking vegetables. The condensation of vapours from C give a liquid E which turns anhydrous CuSO4 to blue.(a) Which liquid could be an element? Name this element.(b) Which liquid could be a mixture? Name this mixture.(c) Which liquid could be a compound? Name this compound.(d) What could the solid D be?(e) What do you think is liquid E?
The cut part of a plant stem(without roots) which is used in grafting is called:(a)stock (b)stump (c)scion (d)graft
The process of breakdown of food particles into small pieces is called (a) Mastication(b) Digestion(c) Peristalsis(d) Diffusion
Which of the following is used as a moderator in the reactor of a nuclear power station?(a) liquid sodium (b) boron (c) graphite (d) carbon dioxide
Explain the difference in sedimentation and decantation.
Fill in the blanks:(a) Evaporation of a liquid at room temperature leads to a——— effect.(b) At room temperature the forces of attraction between the particles of solid substances are———than those which exist in the gaseous state.(c) The arrangement of particles is less ordered in the ——— state. However, there is no order in the ——— state.(d) ——— is the change of solid state directly to vapour state without going through the ——— state.(e) The phenomenon of change of a liquid into the gaseous state at any temperature below its boiling point is called———.
Name the temperature at which :(a) a liquid changes into a gas.(b) a solid changes into a liquid.
