Q. Is shampoo acidic or basic? 

Shampoo is generally made by the salts of a weak acid and a strong base, so they're somewhat basic. Shampoos usually are at pH 5.5 because at slightly acidic pH the scales on a hair follicle lay flat making the hair feel smooth and look shiny. Citric acid is used to adjust the pH down to 5.5 (is). It is a fairly weak acid which makes the adjustment easier.

Q. Why government has put ban on the sale of shahtoosh shawls?

Shahtoosh shawl, made from the wool of endangered Tibetan antelope, Chiru which is a rare animal Therefore, government has put ban on the sale of shahtoosh shawls for the purpose of conservation and protection

 Q. Why is sericulture not considered on eco-friendly practise?

 Sericulture not considered on eco-friendly practice because during sericulture silk worm is boiled to get silk fibres. Vapours emitted from the boiling cocoon release toxic fumes that pollute the atmosphere contribute to respiratory problem.

Q. Why is shearing usually done in summer?

Shearing is usually done in summer because ships do not require insulating material in summer.

Q. Is burning of candle physical or chemical change or both?

Burning of candle is both. When candle burn wax melts that is a physical change but some wax burn and produce gas this is a chemical change.

Phenomena during the candle burning: 
- melting (physical phenomenon)
- evaporation (may be considered a chemical but also a physical phenomenon)
- oxidation - reaction with oxygen, burning (chemical phenomenon)
- thermal decomposition (chemical phenomenon)

Q. The atomicity of oxygen in ozone is 1.5 times that of oxygen in oxygen molecule derive the formula of ozone. 

Atomicity of oxygen in oxygen molecules = 2

Atomicity of oxygen in ozone molecules = 1.5 x 2=3

Hence the formula of ozone = O3

Q. Why iron gates are painted? 

Iron gates are painted to protect from moisture and air and hence prevent.

Q. Why are toothpastes basic in nature?

 In our mouth bacteria produce acid which dissolves enamels therefore prevent acid formation we use toothpastes. The main job of a toothbrush & toothpaste is to remove Plaque , a thin film formed by bacteria on teeth & gums.

Q. Decide which is more acidic or more basic

Strong acid + strong Base ----> neutral salt pH= 7

Weak acid + strong Base ---> Basic salt pH>7

Strong acid + strong Base --> Acidic salt pH< 7

Q. Why does thick glass tumbler crack when you pour hot tea into it?

When you pour hot tea into thick glass tumbler , inner surface expand more than outer surface as glass is bad conductor of heat. Hence unequal expansion crack glass tumbler.

NCERT Activity Chapter 02 Acid Bases and Salt Class 10 Chemistry Activity 2.1 Indicator Acid Base Red litmus No Change Blue Blue Litmus Red No change Phenolphthalein Colourless Pink Methyl Orange Pink   Yellow Indictors are substance which change colour in acidic or basic media. Activity 2.2 There are some substances whose odour changes in in acidic or basic media. These are called olfactory indicators. Like onion vanilla, onion and clove. These changes smell in basic solution. Activity 2.3 Take about 5 mL of dilute sulphuric acid in a test tube and add few pieces of zinc granules to it. => You will observe bubbles of hydrogen gas on the surface of zinc granules. Zn + H2SO4 --> ZnSO4 + H2 => Pass the Hydrogen gas through the soap solution. Bubbles formed in the soap solution as Hydrogen gas it does not get d...

Q. 1. A concave mirror of focal length 20cm is placed 50 cm from a wall. How far from the wall an object be placed to form its real image on the wall?  Solution: V= -50 cm F= -20cm From mirror formula 1/u = 1/f – 1/v = -1/20+ 1/50 = - 3/100  U = - 33.3 cm Therefore, the distance of the object from the wall x =  50 – u X = 50 – 33.3 = 16.7 cm. Q.2. An object is placed at a distance of 40cm from a concave mirror of focal length 15cm. If the object is displaced through a distance of 20 cm towards the mirror, By how much distance is the image displaced? Answer: Here f = - 15 cm, u = - 40 cm Now 1/f = 1/u + 1/v Then 1/v = 1/f – 1/u Or V= uf/u-f =( - 40 x -15)/25 = -24 cm Then object is displaced towards the mirror let u1 be the distance object from the Mirror in its new position. Then u1 = -(40-20) = -20cm If the image is formed at a distance u1 from the mirror then v1 = u1f/u1-f = -20X-15/-20+15 = -60 cm. = - 20 x-15/-20+15 = -60 ...

Class 10 Metal and Non MetalsChapter 03 NCERT Activity Solutions

By
X Class 10 NCERT Activity Explanation Class 10 Metals and Non Metals Activity 3.1 Page No. 37 Take samples of iron, copper, aluminium and magnesium. Note the appearance of each sample. They have a shining surface. Clean the surface of each sample by rubbing them with sand paper and note their appearance again. They become more shiny. => Freshly cut Metal have shiny surface Activity 3.2 Page No. 37 Take small pieces of iron, copper, aluminium, and magnesium. Try to cut these metals with a sharp knife and note your observations. They are very hard to cut. Hold a piece of sodium metal with a pair of tongs and try to cut it with a knife. Sodium can be cut easily with knife. Hence K and Na are soft metal cut with knife Activity 3.3 Page No. 38 Take pieces of iron, zinc, lead and copper try to strike it four or five times with a hammer. These metals are beaten into thin sheet on hammering. This property of metal is called malleability and metals are called malleable. Activity 3.4 Page ...

Class 09 Atoms and Molecules Numerical Problem based on Law of chemical Combination(Solved)

By
Class 09 Atoms and Molecules Numerical Problem based on Law of chemical Combination Law of conservation of mass Law of constant proportion Empirical formula 1. If 10 grams of CaCO 3 on heating gave 4.4g of CO 2 and 5.6g of CaO, show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.(Based on Law of conservation of mass) Solution:  Mass of the reactants = 10g ;  Mass of the products = 4.4 + 6.6g = 10g Since the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products, the observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. 2. 1.375 g of cupric oxide was reduced by heating and the weight of copper that remained was 1.098g.  In another experiment 1.179 g of copper was dissolved in nitric acid and the resulting copper nitrate was converted into cupric oxide by ignition . The weight of cupric oxide formed was 1.476 g. which law of chemical combinations does this data state? Solution: in first experiment: Copper oxide = 1....
