2-marks Questions/ Answers
Q.1. An iron knife kept dipped in a blue copper sulphate solution turns the blue solution light green. Why?
Ans. As we know iron is more reactive than copper. So, it displaces Cu from CuSO4 solution and forms ferrous sulphate which is of Light Green Colour.
CuSO4 (aq) + Fe (s)              FeSO4(aq)                  +               Cu(s)
 Blue colour                            light green colour
Q.2. A copper coin is kept in a solution of silver nitrate for some time. What will happen to the coin and the colour of the solution?
Ans. We know that copper is more reactive than silver, so it will displace silver from its salt solution:
 Cu(s)   +          2AgNO3(aq)             Cu(NO3)2(aq)    +          2Ag(s)
So the solution will turn blue due to the formation of copper nitrate.
Q.3. What do you understand by precipitation reaction? Explain with suitable examples.
Ans.  Precipitate. When two reactants react and product formed remains insoluble and settles as a solid it is called a precipitate. Such reactions in which precipitate is formed are called precipitation reactions. For example,
(i) when aqueous solution of sodium sulphate is mixed with the aqueous solution or barium chloride, barium sulphate comes in the form of white precipitate
Na2SO4(aq)      +          BaCl2(aq)                 BaSO4()          +          2NaCl(aq)
(ii) When aqueous solution of sodium chloride is mixed with the aqueous solution of silver nitrate, silver chloride comes in the form of white precipitate.
Q.4. What is lime-water test for the detection of carbon dioxide?
Ans. When carbon dioxide gas is passed through lime water ,it turns milky due to the formation of milky suspension (precipitate) of calcium carbonate. Carbon dioxide is produced by the action of dilute HCl on sodium carbonate.
Na2CO3(s)        +          2HCl(aq)                    2NaCl   +          H2O(l)   +          CO2
Carbon dioxide gas produced in this reaction is passed through lime water that changes to milky colour due to the formation of calcium carbonate.
 Ca(OH)2(aq)     +          CO2(g)                      Caco3   +          CO2(g)

Q.5. What is corrosion? State the conditions necessary for rusting of iron. How rusting is harmful?
Ans:  Corrosion. The process of eating away of the metal by the action of atmospheric reagents changing the metal into its compound is called corrosion.
Rusting of Iron. When iron and iron objects are exposed to atmosphere, they are attacked by air and moisture (water) of the atmosphere and a brown and orange coloured layer is formed on the surface. It is called rust which is mainly hydrated iron (iii) oxide Fe2O3.xH2O.
Harmful Effect of Rusting. Hydrated iron (iii) oxide is brittle substance and moves away from the surface thus the object is damaged. The objects get holes, cavities and rough surface.
Conditions necessary for rusting :
(i) Open surfaces of the metal.   (ii) Presence of air (Oxygen).  (iii) Presence of moisture (water).
Q.6. What is rancidity? Write the common method to prevent it.
Ans. When food item are kept unprotected for some time, they give some unpleasant smell and taste and become rancid. This process is called rancidity. Actually, the micro organisms oxidise the fat and oils present in them. So oxidation of food items need to be prevented to protect them.
Common methods to Prevent Rancidity of Food item:
(i) Keeping the food at low temperature             (ii) Keeping food item in air tight containers
(iii) By filling nitrogen in the food storage bags.
5 Marks Questions/ Answers
1. a. Why cannot a chemical change be normally reversed?
b. why is it always essential to balance a chemical equation?
c. what happens when CO2 gas is passed through lime water and why does it disappear on passing excess CO2?
d. Can rusting of iron takes place in distilled water?
Ans:  (a) In a chemical change some bonds are broken and some bonds are formed. The products are quite different from the reactants. Therefore it normally can’t be reversed.
(b) A chemical equation has to be balanced to satisfy the law of conservation of mass.
(c) On passing CO2 gas through lime water, it turns milky due to formation of insoluble calcium carbonate which dissolves on passing excess CO2 due to formation of soluble calcium bicarbonate.
Ca(OH)2 + CO2(g) -------------- CaCO3(s) + H2O(l)
CaCO3(s) + H2O(l) + CO2 (g) --------------- Ca(HCO3)2(soluble)
(d)  No, rusting of iron cannot take place in distilled water because it neither contains dissolved oxygen nor CO2 both are essential for rusting of iron.

Class 10 Chapter 02 Acid Bases and Salts NCERT Activity Explanation

NCERT Activity Chapter 02 Acid Bases and Salt Class 10 Chemistry Activity 2.1 Indicator Acid Base Red litmus No Change Blue Blue Litmus Red No change Phenolphthalein Colourless Pink Methyl Orange Pink   Yellow Indictors are substance which change colour in acidic or basic media. Activity 2.2 There are some substances whose odour changes in in acidic or basic media. These are called olfactory indicators. Like onion vanilla, onion and clove. These changes smell in basic solution. Activity 2.3 Take about 5 mL of dilute sulphuric acid in a test tube and add few pieces of zinc granules to it. => You will observe bubbles of hydrogen gas on the surface of zinc granules. Zn + H2SO4 --> ZnSO4 + H2 => Pass the Hydrogen gas through the soap solution. Bubbles formed in the soap solution as Hydrogen gas it does not get dissolved in it

CBSE I NCERT 10th Numerical Problem solved Reflection and reflection of light

Q. 1. A concave mirror of focal length 20cm is placed 50 cm from a wall. How far from the wall an object be placed to form its real image on the wall?  Solution: V= -50 cm F= -20cm From mirror formula 1/u = 1/f – 1/v = -1/20+ 1/50 = - 3/100  U = - 33.3 cm Therefore, the distance of the object from the wall x =  50 – u X = 50 – 33.3 = 16.7 cm. Q.2. An object is placed at a distance of 40cm from a concave mirror of focal length 15cm. If the object is displaced through a distance of 20 cm towards the mirror, By how much distance is the image displaced? Answer: Here f = - 15 cm, u = - 40 cm Now 1/f = 1/u + 1/v Then 1/v = 1/f – 1/u Or V= uf/u-f =( - 40 x -15)/25 = -24 cm Then object is displaced towards the mirror let u1 be the distance object from the Mirror in its new position. Then u1 = -(40-20) = -20cm If the image is formed at a distance u1 from the mirror then v1 = u1f/u1-f = -20X-15/-20+15 = -60 cm. = - 20 x-15/-20+15 = -60 cm. Therefor
