Answer 5:
For industrial purposes, ethanol is sometimes mixed with pisonous substances. The mix¬ture so obtained is called denatured spirit.

Answer 6:
a. 1s22s2 2p6 3s2 3p1
b. p

Answer 7:

Answer 10:
a. Cement combines with water and sets into a hardened mass (setting of cement)
b. Cement combines with water and sets into a hardened mass. It is an exothermic reaction. Hence a large amount of heat energy is liberated direct contact with the skin will lead to burning. To prevent this, workers wear gloves

Answer 11:
(Question error. 7O2 is suitable instead of 5O2 )
a. 3.5 mols If 7O2 is used
a. 2.5 mols If 5O2 is used
b. Molecular mass of C2H= 24+6 =30g
30g C2 H6 burn → 2 x 22.4 L CO2
150g C2 H6 burn → 5 x 2 x 22.4 LCO2
= 224 L CO2

Answer 12:
a. Test tube containing powdered copper. When solids are made into small pieces or powder, their surface area increases. As a result the number of molecules undergoing effective collisions also increases. Hence the rate of reaction increases.
b. Increase the temperature

Answer 13:
a. The amount NO2 will increase
b. According to Le-Cheltelier’s principle, if the pressure of a system of gaseous reacting species is altered, the system will try to nullify the effect of that change. The right side of the equation given has more gaseous moles than the left side. Decrease in pressure will favour the side with more gaseous moles. That is, the reaction proceeds faster towards the right side if the pressure is decreased

Answer 14:
a. i. Bauxite (Al2O3. 2H2O)
ii. Sodium aluminate (NaAlO2) solution
iii. Precipitate Al(OH)3
iv. Alumina (Al(O3)
b. Here, Oxygen is liberated at the Anode. It reacts with the carbon anode forming carbon dioxide. As a result, the anode gets consumed up. Hence Anode should be removed at regular intervals.

Answer 15:
a. Soda lime glass (Soda glass, Soft glass) Silicon dioxide (SiO2), Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), Calcium carbonate (CaCO3)
b. Cobalt oxide
