Question 2:

A solution of salt in water is a

(a) compound.

(b) homogeneous mixture.

(c) heterogeneous mixture.

(d) element.

ANSWER:

(b) homogeneous mixture

When salt is dissolved in water, the salt is distributed uniformly in the solution. Thus, the salt solution is a homogeneous mixture.

The property used in separating a mixture of two solids by winnowing is

(a) difference in colour.

(b) difference in size.

(c) difference in weight.

(d) attraction by magnet.

ANSWER:

(c) difference in weight

Winnowing is used to separate two solids of different weights, such as wheat and chaff.

Question 6:

The temperature of a saturated solution of sugar in water is raised by 10 °C. Which of these statements is now true?

(a) It will continue to be saturated.

(b) It will become unsaturated.

(c) Whether it remains saturated or becomes unsaturated depends on the amount of water taken.

(d) It will continue to be saturated, but if the temperature is increased beyond 10 °C it will become unsaturated.

ANSWER:

(b) it will become unsaturated

If the temperature of saturated sugar solution is increased by 10 oC, then more sugar can be dissolved in the solution and the solution becomes unsaturated.

Question 7:

Which of the following can dissolve in water?

(a) only solids

(b) only solids and liquids

(c) solids, liquids and gases

(d) only liquids

ANSWER:

(c) solids, liquids and gases

Solids such as salt, liquids such as alcohol and gases such as nitrogen and oxygen can dissolve in water.

Question 8:

Sedimentation and decantation are useful to separate

(a) immiscible liquids.

(b) soluble solid from liquid.

(c) insoluble solid from liquid.

(d) insoluble solid from a liquid where the solid is heavier than the liquid.

ANSWER:

(d) insoluble solid from a liquid where the solid is heavier than the liquid

Decantation and sedimentation can be used to separate solids from a liquid when the solid is heavier than the liquid and is insoluble in the liquid.

Question 9:

A commonly used chemical for loading is

(a) hydrogen.

(b) alum.

(c) sulphur.

(d) common salt.
