The language of chemistry class 7 Basic science soled questions.

Q. What is chemistry?
Ans: Chemistry is a branch of science in which we study the composition, structure, properties and change of matter.

Q. What is matter?
Ans: Anything that is around us having some mass and occupies space is called matter.

Q. What are the different classifications of matter?
Ans: Matters are classified into element, compound and mixture.

Q. What is element?
Ans: Elements are the purest form of substance (matter) made up of same kinds of particles. The smallest unit of element is an atom. eg. Hydrogen, oxygen, carbon.

Class 07 Basic sciences Chapter the Language of Chemistry
A. Answer these questions

1. What does the formula of a substance tell us?

Answer: Formula of a compound or an element represents the name and number of atoms present in one molecule of that compound or element.

2. What do you mean by valancy of an element?

Answer: The number of electrons that can be donated, accepted or shared by an atom of an element during a chemical reaction is equal to the valency of that element. Thus the combining capacity of an atom is called its valancy.

3. What is a radical?

Answer: A compound radical is a group of two or more elements that acts as a single atom in a chemical reaction.

4. Name two elements having variable valancy. Give the name and formulae of compounds formed byeach of these element.

Answer: Two elements having variable valency and compounds formed by them are as follows:

(i) Copper (Cu):  
(a) Cuprous oxide [Copper (I) oxide] − Cu2O     
 (b) Cupric oxide [Copper(II)oxide] − CuO

(ii) Iron (Fe):  (a) Ferrous oxide [Iron(II)oxide] − FeO                    
(b) Ferric oxide [Iron(III)oxide] − Fe2O3

5. What is balance equations? Why should a  equation be balanced?

Answer: A reaction is in which the number of atoms on the side of the products is equal to the number of atoms on the side of the reactants is called a balanced chemical. This is known as law of the conservation of mass given by Antoine Lavoisier's 1789.  We balance a chemical reaction to represent this fact.

C. What are compound radicals? Give examples of a few radicals, along with their valancies. Also mention some compound containing compound radicals. Give the valancies of the part that make up the compound?

Answer: Compound radical is a group of atoms of different elements that behave as an intact unit during a chemical reaction. Atoms in a compound radical do not break apart revealing the individual atoms but remain together forming an intact group of atoms having a valency. This unit behaves just like an atom or a molecule during a reaction.
  
Some compound radicals with their valencies are given below:

Compound Radical        Valency
OH                               1
SO4                              2
NO3                              1
CO3                              2

D. Complete the following

Answer :
1. A symbol is an abbreviation of the name of an element.
2. A molecule of an element or a compound is represented by its formula.
3. The valencies of the two elements of a binary compound are transposed to obtain its formula.
4. Atoms are neither lost nor gained in a chemical reaction.

E.Choose the correct options
1. Which of the following is the symbol of gold?
C. Au   
2. Which of the following is a divalent radical                                                      
(c) Sulphate                 
3. The vaancy of sulphur in sulphur dioxide                                                       
 (d) 4                
4.How many times greater is the valency of N in NH3 than that of Cl in HCl          
(b) 3
Valency of N in NH3 is 3, whereas the valency of Cl in HCl is 1.  
Hence, the valency of N in NH3 is three times greater than that of Cl in HCl.

F. Match the coloumn

Answer :

Column A
Column B
(a) Helium
(ii) He
(b) Mercury
 (i) Hg
(c) Copper
(v) Cu
(d) Calcium
(vi) Ca
(e) Phosphorus
(iv) P
(f) Lead
(iii) Pb

G. Say true and false

Answer :

1. True. The valency of hydrogen is 1.
2. True. The valency of oxygen is 2.
3. False. Symbol of iron is Fe.
4. True. The symbol of silver is Ag.
5. False. Calcium chloride is CaCl2.
6. True. The valency of both zinc and oxygen is 2. So, zinc oxide is ZnO

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

Class 10 Metal and Non MetalsChapter 03 NCERT Activity Solutions

X Class 10 NCERT Activity Explanation Class 10 Metals and Non Metals Activity 3.1 Page No. 37 Take samples of iron, copper, aluminium and magnesium. Note the appearance of each sample. They have a shining surface. Clean the surface of each sample by rubbing them with sand paper and note their appearance again. They become more shiny. => Freshly cut Metal have shiny surface Activity 3.2 Page No. 37 Take small pieces of iron, copper, aluminium, and magnesium. Try to cut these metals with a sharp knife and note your observations. They are very hard to cut. Hold a piece of sodium metal with a pair of tongs and try to cut it with a knife. Sodium can be cut easily with knife. Hence K and Na are soft metal cut with knife Activity 3.3 Page No. 38 Take pieces of iron, zinc, lead and copper try to strike it four or five times with a hammer. These metals are beaten into thin sheet on hammering. This property of metal is called malleability and metals are called malleable. Activity 3.4 Page

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
