The handle of cooker is made of plastic. Why? |
|
Answer» Cooker is made of metal. When food is cooked in it, it gets heated and the whole of its body becomes hot due to thermal conductivity. Hence with the plastic handle we can easily lift the hot cooker as plastic is a bad conductor of heat. |

On opening a box of camphor, its smell spreads all around. Why does this happen? |
|
Answer» 1. Camphor is a sublimate substance. 2. When a box of camphor is opened it changes its state from solid to gas or vapour state. 3. This change takes due to the process of sublimation where camphor absorbs heat from surrounding to change from solid to gaseous state. 4. Camphor particles in gaseous state start spreading all around. 5. Hence on opening a box of camphor its smell spreads all around. |

What will happen if ….? And why?(a) Nails are made of plastic.(b) A bell is made of wood.(c) Rubber is not fitted on a pair of tongs.(d) A knife is made of wood.(e) An axe is made of rubber. |
|
Answer» (a) Nails are made of plastic : If nails are made of plastic, they will not be able to pierce through other substances on being pushed or forced by a hammer. Plastic lacks the property of hardness. (b) A bell is made of wood : 1. If a bell is made of wood it will never make a ringing sound. A wooden bell does not have the property of being sonorous. 2. Sonority is the property of metals to produce a ringing sound. (c) Rubber is not fitted on a pair of tongs : 1. Rubber is a bad conductor of heat and electricity. It will not allow heat to pass to the hands/handle of the tongs, thus protecting us. 2. Pair of tongs are made up of metals which conduct heat and electricity. They have file property of thermal conduction and electrical conduction. 3. If rubber is not fitted on a pair of tongs, we will not be able to lift hot objects with it. (d) A knife is made of wood : Wood does not have the property of malleability. Therefore, The edge of wooden knife will be blunt. Hence, We will not be able to cut anything with it. (e) An axe is made of rubber : 1. If an axe is made of rubber, it will not be used to cut wood or tree. 2. Rubber does not have the property of hardness that is required to push through to cut it. |

(a) Why do we classify elements ?(b) What were the two criteria used by Mendeleev to classify the elements in his periodic table ?(c) Why did Mendeleev leave some gaps in his periodic table ?(d) In Mendeleev’s periodic table, why was there no mention of noble gases like helium, neon and argon ?(e) Would you place the two isotopes of chlorine, Cl-35 and Cl-37 in different slots because of their different atomic masses or in the same slot because their chemical properties are the same ? Justify your answer . |
|
Answer» (a) The elements are classified into groups so that the elements with similar properties fall in the same group and hence the study of a large number of elements is reduced to the study of a few group of elements. (b)(i) Increasing atomic masses (ii) Grouping together of elements having similar properties. (c) In order to make sure that the elements having similar properties fell in the same vertical column or group, Mendeleev left some gaps in his periodic table. (d) Out of eight groups in the original periodic table of Mendeleev, first seven groups are of normal elements and eighth group is of transition elements. Noble gases were not known at that time. So, there was no group of noble gases in Mendeleev’s table. (e) The isotopes of chlorine, Cl-35 and Cl-37 are placed in the same slot because they have similar chemical properties and same atomic number. |

Should the specific heat of monoatomic gas be less than, equal to or greater than that of a diatomic gas at room temperature? Justify your answer. |
|
Answer» Specific heat of a gas at constant volume is equal to f/2R. For monoatomic gases f = 3 so Cv = 3/2 R. For diatomic gases f = 5 so Cv = 5/2 R. Hence the specific heat for monoatomic gas is less than that for a diatomic gas. |
