Ethanol, commonly called as ’alcohol’ is an excellent solvent, it used in medicines and is an important chemical compound involved in synthesis of many chemical compounds. However inspite of its benefits to man, its impact on social behaviour has always been questioned. Media has often shown abnormal behaviour of people while drunk. It is considered as a curse in the lives of those who are addicted to alcohol. ’Alcoholic' people are not only lowering their metabolism and affecting centrol nervous system, they are also a threat to the lives of others. Anger and rude behaviour are some of its ill effects. |
|
Answer» n is incomplete. Here is the complete question taken from CLASS X science book. 1)Comment on the statement – ‘Should production of alcohol should be banned’, give three valid reasons to justify. 2)As a student what initiative would you take in the common concern of ‘Save Life, Do not Drink’. Give two suggestions.In a favour of negative response:--> it is widely used industrial solvent .---> it is widely used in medicines like tincture iodine , cough.---> it is also used as antiseptic to sterilize wounds and syringes syrups. ln favour of positive response :--->Drunken driving leads to increased road accidents.--->The drinking of adulterated alcohol containing methyl alcohol causes SEVERE poisoning leading to blindness an even death.Two suggestions :--> Create awareness among public about side EFFECTS of alcohol by conducting rallies, skits etc.--->Conducting ESSAY writings, drawing competitions in schools and exhibit them in school.---> Organizing an exhibition on the charts and drawings done by students . |

Soaps are sodium or potassium salts of higher fatty acids. Fatty acids are carboxylic acids containing 12 or more carbon atoms. Detergents are sodium or potassium salts of sulphonic acids. They have SO3Na group and can even work with hard water. Soap forms an insoluble substance called residue with hard water. This is due to its reaction with the calcium and magnesium salts which cause the hardness of water. Thus, a larger amount of soap needs to be used. (i) What is saponification ? (ii) Which group is present in soaps ? (iii) What is micelle ? (iv) How does micelles dissolve dirt and greese ? (v) Which type of detergents are non-biodegradable ? |

Answer» this is acid base reaction here CH3COOH is acid and NaHCO3 is base hence salt form. i.e. CH3COOH+NaHCO3----> CH3COONa +H20 +CO2Explanation:Half of this is a double displacement reaction. The reaction TAKES place in two steps. Step 1 CH₃COOH(aq) + NaHCO₃(s) → CH₃COONa + H₂CO₃(aq) This is a double displacement reaction because the Na trades partners with the H of CH₃COOH. Step 2 The carbonic acid formed in Step 1 DECOMPOSES into CO₂ and water. H₂CO₃(aq) → CO₂(g) + H₂O(l) This is a decomposition reaction, because one substance is converted into two different substances. OVERALL Reaction If you ADD the two equations together, the H₂CO₃ cancels out, and you get CH₃COOH(aq) + Na₂CO₃(s) → CH₃COONa(aq) + CO₂(g) + H₂O(l) |

Answer» ttering of LIGHT - Phenomenon of spreading of light (DIFFUSED, reflection) by minute particles in a medium. (ii) The sky appears BLUE because of the blue color of SUNLIGHT scatter MUCH more strongly than the red colour by particles in atmosphere/ air due to its shorter wavelength. (iii) At sun-rise and sun-set most of the blue light and shorter wavelengths are scattered away by the particles in the atmosphere as the light from the sun near the horizon passes through thick layers of air and larger distance. The light that reaches us is of a longer wavelength (red colour) giving a reddish appearance.Read more on Sarthaks.com - https://www.sarthaks.com/168556/what-meant-scattering-light-the-sky-appears-blue-and-the-sun-appears-reddish-sunrise-sunset |
