An liquid compound X of molecule mass 18 u can be obtained from a number of natural sources. All the animals and plants need liquid X for their survival. When an electric current is passed through 200 grams of pure liquid X under suitable conditions, then `178` grams of gas Y and 22 grams of gas Z are produced. Gas Y is produced at the positive electrode whereas gas Z is obtained at the negative electrode. Moreover, gas Y supports combustion whereas gas Z burns itself causing explosions. (a) Name (i) liquid X (ii) gas, Y and (iii) gas Z. (b) What is the ratio of the mass of element Z to mass of element Y in the liquid X? (c ) Which law of chemical combination is illustrated by this example ? (d) Name two source of liquid X. (e ) State an important use of Y in our life.

Answer» Correct Answer - (a) (i) Water , (ii) Oxygen (iii) Hydrogen , (b) `1 : 8` , (c ) Law of constant proportions (d) Rivers and Wells , (e ) Gas Y (oxygen) is necessary for brething
