The type of bond formed by sharing of electrons is covalent bond. OR Why are covalent compounds being poor conductors of electricity? Why do. covalent compounds have low melting and boiling points? Ans: Covalent compounds are poor conductors of electricity as they do not have charged particles since the electrons are shared between atoms. Covalent compounds have low melting and boiling points as they have weak inter molecular forces due to which little energy is required in changing state by overcoming the force of attraction, 25.

Ans: If a student cannot see the blackboard distant to her she is suffering from Myopia. Hence doctor advises concave lens of suitable focal length. Correction for myopia oR Why do we see a rainbow in the sky only after rainfall? Ans: Rainbow is caused by dispersion of sunlight by tiny water droplets, present in the atmosphere. A rainbow is always formed in a direction opposite to that of the Sun. The water droplets act like small prisms. They refract and disperse the incident sunlight, then reflect it internally, and finally refract it again when it comes out of the raindrop. 26. Give two examples of decomposers.

At the centre of the circular loop, the field lines are neatly straight. carcutar Circular current of wire carrying Magnetic field lines ‘The magnetic field produced by a current carrying wire at a given point depends directly on the current passing through it. Therefore, if there is a circular coil having n tums, the field produced is n-times as large as that produced by a single turn. This is because the current in each circular turn has the same direction, and the field due to each turn then just adds up. 32. (a) How does food chain differ from a food web?

CH:COOC:Hs + NaOH —> CH3COONa + CHs0H Name of Reaction : Saponification Use : Preparation of soap ‘on is burnt in an atmosphere of nitrogen gas to’ form solid magnesium OR What is the difference between soaps and detergents? State in brief the cleansing action of soaps in removing an oily spot from a fabric. Why are soaps not very effective when a fabric is washed in hard water? How is this problem resolved? Ans. Soaps are sodium or potassium salts of long-chain carboxylic acids. Detergents are generally ammonium or sulphonate salts of long chain carboxylic acids. Cleansing action of soaps: A soap molecule contains a hydrophilic polar end (COO- Na+) and a hydrophobic non-polar carbon chain, The hydrophobic partis soluble in oil whereas hydrophilic part is soluble in water. The non-polar end gets attached to oily or greasy particle on the cloth 35. 36. and the polar end remains in the water. This results in the formation of cluster. When the cloth is agitated, the grease or dirt gets removed along with the soap molecules. Soaps do not form lather in hard water because hard water contai alcium and magnesium salts. Soap molecules react with calcium and magnesium salts to form an insoluble precipitate called scum, This problem is resolved by using detergents in hard water or by boiling hard water. The charged ends of detergents do not form insoluble precipitates with the calcium and magnesium ions present in hard water. Thus, they remain effective in hard water.

(©) The reading remain same. i ee G@ RAR, $120, R, = 240 (b) Same readingsof Ay and Az What is yexual reproduction? Explain how this mode of reproduction gives rise to more viable variations than asexual reproduction. How does this affect the evolution? Ans: Sexual reproduction is a natural mode of reproduction which involves two individuals followed by gamete formation. During sexual reproduction, at the time of gamete formation, meiotic cell division takes place. During meiosis, crossing over between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes occurs which brings about new genetic combinations 10 be transferred to new generation. Crossing over is the fundamental cause of origin of variations in sexually reproducing organisms. Whereas, in asexual reproduction, chance of variations can only occur when there is inaccurate copying of DNA as only one individual is involved. The variations caused by crossing over in sexually reproducing organisms are subjected to the selection process. Natural selection selects those variations which have more adaptive value and guide them towards evolution of new species. In this way, sexual reproduction gives rise to more viable variations for evolution. OR (a) What are dominant and recessive traits? (b) "Is it possible that a trait is inherited but may not be expressed in the next generation?" Give a suitable example to justify this statement. Ans: (a) Dominant traits: The trait which expresses itself in F) (first) generation after crossing contrasting (opposite) traits is known as dominant character (trait) Recessive trait: The trait which do not express itself in Fi (first) generation after crossing contrasting (opposite) trait.

So, maximum decomposition took place. Gi) Polluted water is acidic in nature hence it reacts with calcium carbonate (ii) Calcium carbonate decomposes on heating to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. The rate of calcium carbonate decomposition increases when steam is applied. A catalytic effect ‘occurs since the activation energy decreases without byproducts formation, OR (iii) The decomposition of limestone (CaCO) to make lime (CaO) is also an endothermic process. It is necessary to heat limestone to a high temperature for this reaction to occur. 38, Case Study - 2 Dispersion of light occurs when white light is separated into its different constituent colors because of refraction and Snell's law.
