Explain the term functional group with an example. |
|
Answer» Solution :The compound acquirespecific chemical properties due to these heteroatoms or the groups of atoms that contain hetero atoms, irrrespective of the LENGTH and NATURE of the carbon chain in that compound. Therefore these hetero atoms or the groups of atoms containing hetero atomsa are called functional groups. All organic compounds are derivatives of HYDROCARBONS. The derivatives are formed by replacing one or more H-atom/atoms ofhydrocarbon by some other hetero atom or groups of atoms containing hetero atoms. After replacement, a new compound is formed which has propertiesdifferent from the parent hydrocarbon. Examples : For methane, if one hydrogen atom is replaced by an -OH group, then a compound is methylalcohol `(CH_(3)OH)`. The -OH group isknown as the alcoholic functional group. Functional group is organic compound : 1. Alcohol : ` -OH` (hydroxy group) 2. Aldehyde : `-overset(H)overset("|")C=O` 3. Ketones : `-overset(O)overset("||")C-` 4. Carboxylic ACID :`-COOH` |

Draw a ray diagram to show refraction through a rectangular glass slab. How is the emergent ray related to incident ray ? What is its lateral displacement ? |
Answer» Solution :A ray diagram showing refraction through a RECTANGULAR glass slab has been shown in adjoining figure. The emergent ray GH is exactly parallel to the incident ray EFNM. It MEANS that `angle r_(2) = angle i_(1)`. HOWEVER, the emergent ray is laterally (side ways) DISPLACED as compared to the original path of LIGHT ray. In ray diagram, the lateral displacement is GN. Its value increases on increasing the width of glass slab. |

Tow identical solid balls, one of ivory and the other of wetr-clay are dropped from the same height on to the floor. Which one will rise to a greater height after striking the floor and why? |
|
Answer» Solution :We KNOW that ivory ball is more ELASTIC than WET-clay ball. Therefore, the ivory ball will tend to regain its original shape in a very SHORT time after the collision. Due to it, there will be large energy and momentum transfrer to the ivory ball in comparison to the wet- clay ball. As a result of it , the ivory ball will raise higher after the collision. |

What are semiconductors' Explain the principle of working of solar cells made of semiconductor. Why are solar panel cells used in artificial satellites? |
|
Answer» Solution :SEMICONDUCTORS are metals which allow only a partlal current to pass through them in one direction only. The conductivity of a semiconductor INCREASES when light falls on them. lts conductivity also increases if certain impurities are added. Materials like sillicon, selenium, cadmium sulphide, or copper sulphide act as semiconductors. In a solar cell, the pieces [wafers ] of semiconducting materials contalning impurities are such that a potential difference develops berween two regions of a semiconductor when light falls on it. Thus, when solar radiations fall in a solar cell, it converts solar energy into electrical energy. A lead storage battery is connected in the circuit which gets charged and can be used as and when desired. The power generated by a single solar cell is very low. A single solar cell with an area of 4 cm by 2 cm has an output voltage of about 0.4- 0.5 volts at 60 milliamperes of current. So, a large number of solar cells are MOUNTED together to generated appreciable electrical power. The solar cells are arranged in series to form solar panels. Solar panel cells are mosty used in space satellites which remain in outer space for many years. The space satelite contalns solar panels which convert SUNLIGHT into electrical energy and thus electrical ener8 is used by satellite to do various functions. |

During sunrise and sunset sky appears red while during the day it appears blue. Explain these natural phenomenon. |
|
Answer» Solution :This is because of scattering of light. Light from the sun near the horizon passes through larger distance in the earth.s ATMOSPHERE before reaching our EYES. So, most of the blue light and shorter wavelengths are scattered AWAY by the particles. Therefore, the light that reaches our eyes is of longer wavelengths. This gives rise to the REDDISH appearance. But during the DAY shorter wavelengths are scattered more by molecules of air and scattered blue light enters our eyes. |
