Topics
1. The Role of Chemistry in Everyday Life (Roll No.- 1,3,5,7,9)
• Explore how chemistry influences everyday activities such as cooking, cleaning,
healthcare, and environmental conservation. You can research how chemical
reactions play a part in daily tasks.
2. The Chemistry Behind Acids, Bases, and Salts (Roll No.- 11,13,15,17,19)
• Write about the properties, uses, and real-life applications of acids, bases, and salts.
Include how these substances are used in industries like pharmaceuticals and
agriculture.
3. Environmental Impact of Chemical Waste (Roll No.- 21,23,25,27,29)
• Investigate how chemical industries contribute to pollution and the steps being taken
to mitigate harmful effects on the environment. You can also research green
chemistry practices.
4. Corrosion and Its Prevention (Roll No.- 31,33,35,37,39)
• Research the causes of corrosion, its effects on infrastructure, and the various
methods of preventing corrosion. Students can explore the use of coatings, alloys,
and electroplating.
5. The Science of Cleaning Agents: Soaps and Detergents (Roll No.- 41,43,45,47,49)
• Study the chemistry behind how soaps and detergents work to remove dirt and
grease. Compare and contrast the environmental impact of natural and synthetic
cleaning agents.
6. The Role of pH in Agriculture (Roll No.- 2,4,6,8,10)
• Investigate the importance of soil pH in agriculture and how farmers adjust the pH
using chemical substances to ensure optimal crop growth. Discuss the role of lime
and fertilizers.
7. Plastics and Polymers: Friend or Foe? (Roll No.- 12,14,16,18,20)
• Write about the chemistry of plastics and polymers, their uses, and their
environmental impact. Discuss recent developments in biodegradable plastics and
recycling technologies.
8. The Chemistry of Food Preservation (Roll No.- 22,24,26,28,30)
• Research various chemical methods used to preserve food, such as salting,
fermentation, and the use of preservatives. Explore how these methods affect food
safety and shelf life.
9. Electrochemistry in Daily Life (Roll No.- 32,34,36,38,40)
• Investigate how electrochemical processes like electrolysis are used in daily life,
including in the production of metals, rechargeable batteries, and water purification.
10. The Importance of Carbon Compounds (Roll No.- 42,44,46,48,50)
• Explore the different forms of carbon and its compounds, from diamond and graphite
to hydrocarbons. Discuss the significance of carbon in organic chemistry and its role
in living organisms.
