Question. Write the properties of a Solution.
Answer.
(i) It is a homogenous mixture of solute and solvent.
(ii) Solute particles cannot be separated by filtration.
(iii) True solution is clear and transparent.
(iv) True solution does not scatter light.
(v) Solute particles cannot settle out from solvent.

Question. Why is water considered as compound?
Answer. Water is considered as compound because :
(i) Water is composed of two elements : hydrogen and oxygen.
(ii) The ratio of hydrogen and oxygen by mass in any sample of pure water is the same.
(iii) The properties of water are different from its constituent elements : hydrogen and oxygen.
(iv) Water can be decomposed by chemical means only (e.g. electrolytically) into hydrogen and oxygen.

Question. What makes water as a universal solvent?
Answer. Water acts as a universal solution due to :
(i) The polar nature of its molecules.
(ii) Its ability to produce soluble salt on interaction with a large number of substances.

Question. Melting of wax is a physical change but burning of wax is a chemical change. Explain.
Answer.
(i) Melting of wax changes the state of wax from solid to liquid. No new substance is formed. The chemical nature of solid wax and liquid wax is the same. Hence, melting of wax is a physical change.
(ii) Burning of wax gives new gaseous products. Both the physical and chemical changes are taking place. Hence, burning of wax is a chemical change.

Question. (i) State the principle of the process of centrifugation.
(ii) List any three applications of centrifugation.
Answer.
(i) Centrifugation is the process of separating suspended particles from a liquid like colloids by churning the liquid at a high speed. The principle is that denser particles are forced to the bottom and lighter stay at the top when spun rapidly.
(ii) Applications of centrifugation :
(a) Used in dairies and homes to separate cream from milk or butter from cream.
(b) Used in washing machines to squeeze out water from clothes.
(c) Used in laboratories to separate colloidal particles from their solutions.
(d) Used in diagnostic labs for blood and urine test.

Question. Explain sublimation process with labelled diagram.
Answer. The process of converting solid form directly into vapour form is called sublimation. This is a reversible process.
Process :
(i) Take some camphor or ammonium chloride.
(ii) Crush the compound and put it in china dish.
(iii) Fit an inverted funnel over the china dish.
(iv) Put a cotton ball on the stem of the funnel.
(v) Heat the china dish slowly and observe.

Figure: Separation of ammonium chloride and salt by sublimation Ammonium chloride is the molecule which on heating changes directly into gaseous state. When vapours of ammonium chloride collected then solid ammonium chloride is formed.
NH4Cl (solid) + NH4Cl (vapour)
Observation : A change of state directly from solid to gas without changing into liquid state (or vice versa) is observed, this phenomenon is called sublimation.

Question. What are colloids? Give their characteristics.
Answer. Colloidal solution is a heterogeneous mixture whose particles are bigger than size of particle in solution but cannot be visible by naked eye. When the beam of light passes through a colloid, then the path of light becomes visible. For example : Milk, smoke, etc.
(i) Brownian movement : The particles of a colloid show Brownian movement. The particles in it never fully settle down even leaving for a long time to remain undisturbed. They show constant zigzag movement. The type of movement is caused by the constant collisions between the particles of the dispersing medium and dispersed phase.
(ii) Tyndall effect : If the beam of light passes through a colloid then the path of light becomes visible. This is called Tyndall effect. The colloidal particles shine because they scatter the light falling on them in all directions.
