When baking soda is mixed with lemon juice, bubbles are formed with the evolution of a gas. What type of change is it? Explain. Ans. The reaction between baking soda and lemon juice can be given as below: Lemon juice + Baking soda ————-> C02 (bubbles) + Other substances (Citric acid) (Sodium hydrogen carbonate) (Carbon dioxide) It is a chemical change Q.5. When a candle burns, both physical and chemical changes take place. Identify these changes. Give another example of a familiar process in which both the chemical and physical changes take place. Ans. When a candle burns, both physical and chemical changes occur: (i) Physical change: melting of wax, vapourisation of melted wax. (ii) Chemical change: Burning of vapours of wax to give carbon dioxide, heat and light. LPG is another example in which physical change occurs when LPG comes out of cylinder and is converted from liquid to gaseous state and a chemical change occurs when gas burns in air. Q.6. How would you show that setting of a curd is a chemical change? Ans. We can say that setting of curd is a chemical change because we can not get the original substance, i.e., milk back and a new substance is formed with different taste, smell and other chemical properties Q.7. Explain why burning of wood and cutting it into small pieces are considered as two different types of changes. ~ Ans. Burning of wood is a chemical change because in burning new substances are formed as Wood + Oxygen ———–> Charcoal + Carbon dioxide + Heat + Light But cutting it into small pieces is physical change because no new substance is formed. We can only reduce the size of wood. Q.8. Describe how crystals of copper sulphate are prepared. Ans. Take a cupful of water in a beaker and add a few drops of dilute sulphuric acid. Heat the water. When it starts boiling, add copper sulphate powder slowly. Continue to add copper sulphate powder till no more powder can be dissolved. .During this process continuously stir the solution. Filter the solution. Leave it for cooling. Look it after some time, you can see the crystals of copper sulphate Q.9. Explain how painting of an iron gate prevents it from rusting? Ans. It is known that for rusting the presence of oxygen and moisture is essential. Painting prevents the iron gate from coming in contact with oxygen and moisture. Q.10. Explain why rusting of iron objects is faster in coastal areas than in deserts. Ans. As content of moisture in the air in coastal areas is higher than in the air in deserts. So, the process of rusting is faster in coastal areas. Q.11. The gas we use in the kitchen is called liquified petroleum gas (LPG). In the cylinder it exists as a liquid. When it comes out from the cylinder it becomes a gas (Change- A) then it bums (Change-B). The following statements pertain to these changes. Choose the correct one. (i) Process-A is a chemical change. (ii) Process-B is a chemical change. (iii) Both processes A and B are chemical changes. (iv) None of these processes is a chemical change. Ans. (ii) Process-B is a chemical change. Q.12.Anaerobic bacteria digest animal waste and produce biogas (Change-A). The biogas is then burnt as fuel (Change-B). The following statements pertain to these changes. Choose the correct one. (i) Process-A is a chemical change. (ii) Process-B is a chemical change. (iii) Both processes A and B are chemical changes. (iv) None of these processes is a chemical change. Ans.(iii) Both processes A and B are chemical change

State whether the following statements are true or false. In case a statement is false, write the corrected statement in your notebook. (a) Cutting a log of wood into pieces is a chemical change. (True/False) (b) Formation of manure from leaves is a physical change. (True/False) (c) Iron pipes coated with zinc do not get rusted easily. (True/False) (d) Iron and rust are the same substances. (True/False) (e) Condensation of steam is not a chemical change. (True/False) Solution: a) False b) False c) True d) False e) True 3.Fill in the blanks in the following statements: (a) When carbon dioxide is passed through lime water, it turns milky due to the formation of _________. (b) The chemical name of baking soda is _________. (c) Two methods by which rusting of iron can be prevented are _________ and _________. (d) Changes in which only _________ properties of a substance change are called physical changes. (e) Changes in which new substances are formed are called _________ changes. Solution: (a) When carbon dioxide is passed through lime water, it turns milky due to the formation of Calcium carbonate. (b) The chemical name of baking soda is Sodium hydrogen carbonate. (c) Two methods by which rusting of iron can be prevented are painting and galvanization. (d) Changes in which only physical properties of a substance change are called physical changes. (e) Changes in which new substances are formed are called chemical changes. 4. When baking soda is mixed with lemon juice, bubbles are formed with the evolution of a gas. What type of change is it? Explain. Solution: When baking soda is mixed with lemon juice, bubbles are formed with the evolution of a carbon dioxide gas. This is a chemical change. Lemon juice + Baking soda → Carbon dioxide + other substances 5. When a candle burns, both physical and chemical changes take place. Identify these changes. Give another example of a familiar process in which both the chemical and physical changes take place. Solution: Candle Burning Physical change is melting of wax: The chemical change is the burning of gas with the evolution of CO2 Digestion of Food Physical change is the breakdown of larger food molecules to simpler ones The chemical change is the digestion of food by the action of HCl and enzymes. 6. How would you show that setting of curd is a chemical change? Solution: The setting of curd is a chemical change because curd cannot be turned back to milk. The properties of milk and curd are different. 7. Explain why burning of wood and cutting it into small pieces are considered as two different types of changes. Solution: Cutting of wood is a physical change as it does not change the nature of the wood. On the other hand, burning of wood is a chemical change as wood is converted to charcoal with the liberation of CO2. 8. Describe how crystals of copper sulphate are prepared. Solution: Crystals of copper sulphate are prepared using the crystallization method, which is described as follows Take a cupful of water in a beaker. Add a few drops of dilute sulphuric acid to this. Heat the water and when it starts boiling, add copper sulphate powder while still stirring. Add the copper sulphate powder till the solution becomes saturated. Filter into a china dish and allow it to cool. The solution should be kept undisturbed. Slowly, the crystals of copper sulphate separate out. 9. Explain how painting of an iron gate prevents it from rusting Solution: Rusting of iron requires contact with water (moisture) and oxygen. By painting an iron gate, we prevent the contact between iron, Oxygen and water (moisture), this helps in preventing rusting of iron. 10. Explain why rusting of iron objects is faster in coastal areas than in deserts. Solution: Rusting of iron requires contact with water (moisture) and oxygen. In coastal areas, humidity is more in comparision to that in deserts; hence, rusting of iron objects is faster in coastal areas than in deserts. 11. The gas we use in the kitchen is called liquified petroleum gas (LPG). In the cylinder it exist as a liquid. When it comes out from the cylinder it becomes a gas (Change – A) then it burns (Change – B). The following statements pertain to these changes. Choose the correct one. (i) Process – A is a chemical change. (ii) Process – B is a chemical change. (iii) Both processes A and B are chemical changes. (iv) None of these processes is a chemical change Solution: The answer is (ii) Process – B is a chemical change. 12. Anaerobic bacteria digest animal waste and produce biogas (Change – A). The biogas is then burnt as fuel (Change – B). The following statements pertain to these changes. Choose the correct one. (i) Process – A is a chemical change. (ii) Process – B is a chemical change (iii) Both processes A and B are chemical changes. (iv) None of these processes is a chemical change Solution: Answer is (iii) Both processes A and B are chemical changes.

Describe the contribution of cholas to indian architecture and agriculture

Preeti Dabral 3 years ago

During the Mauryan period, significant progress was made in the fields of craft, architecture, sculpture, stone polishing, engineering and jewellery making, etc.

Craft and Architecture: The grand palaces built by the Mauryan emperors struck foreign travellers with amazement. As most of these structures were built of wood so none of their fine specimens has survived to this day.
Sculpture: The greatest stride was made by the art of chiselling stone columns, the beautiful icons and caves. Asokan pillars are the best specimen of Mauryan art. Their pillars are 50-60 feet high weighing about 50 tons. It is amazing how such huge pillars were carved from a single rock. In spite of their huge size, these pillars have a capitol head carved with the unique figures of birds and animals. The four-headed iron capital at Sarnath, which has been adopted as the official seal or national emblem of India, is the living example of Mauryan art.
The art of polishing: The art of polishing hard-rock was so advanced during the Mauryan period that even today we are far behind in this field. The cave walls near Gaya are so well polished that they shine like a mirror. The Asokan pillar in Firozshah Kotla at Delhi was mistaken by an English Bishop Heber, as made of metals. It was all because of its mirror-like shine.
Engineering Skill and Technology: Huge rocks were cut, preserved and chiselled into pillars that were as high as 50 feet and as heavy as 50 tons. These huge rocks were cut probably from the Chunar Hills and from here they were carried to distant destinations. It was a marvellous feat to transport such huge rocks to such distances. It can be easily imagined from the fact that in 1356 A.D., King Firoz Tughlak desired to carry on Asokan pillar from Topara in Ambala to Delhi.
Jewellery: The art of jewellery was also advanced. Some ornaments of Asokan period (250 B.C.) have been found during the excavation at Taxila. They testify the skill of the Mauryan craftsmen and goldsmiths.
