- In 1864, Newlands arranged the known 56 elements in the order of increasing atomic masses.
- He observed that the properties of every eighth element are similar to the properties of the first element.
- Based on this observation, he proposed the Law of Octaves for the classification of elements.
- Law of Octaves: When the elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic masses, the properties of every eighth element are similar to the first.

Double Displacement Reaction:Reactions in which ions are exchanged between two reactants forming new compounds are called double displacement reactions.
<i>AB + CD → AC + BD</i>
Example: When solution of barium chloride reacts with the solution of sodium sulphate, white precipitate of barium sulphate is formed along with sodium chloride.
<i>BaCl2 + Na2SO4 → BaSO4 + 2NaCl</i>

Let us have a detailed look at the different parts of the respiratory system and their functions.
Nose
The nose possesses a couple of exterior nostrils, which are divided by a framework of cartilaginous structure termed as the septum. This is the structure that evenly separates the right nostril from the left nostril. Tiny hair follicles that cover the interior lining of nostrils acts as the body’s first line of defence against foreign <a href="https://byjus.com/biology/pathogen/">pathogens</a>. Furthermore, they provide additional humidity for inhaled air.
Larynx
Two cartilaginous chords lay the framework for the larynx. They are situated at the point of joining the pharynx and trachea. It is also termed as Adam’s apple or the voice box. It is the portion which rises and falls during swallowing of food particles. It generates sound as air passes through the hollow in the middle.
Pharynx
The nasal chambers open up into a wide hollow space termed as the pharynx. It is a common path for both air and food. It functions by preventing the entry of food particles into the windpipe. The epiglottis is an elastic cartilage, which serves as a switch between the larynx and the oesophagus by allowing the passage of air into the airway to the lungs, and food in the <a href="https://byjus.com/biology/gastrointestinal-tract/">gastrointestinal tract</a>.
Have you ever wondered why we cough when we eat or swallow?
Talking while we eat or swallow results in incessant coughing. The reason behind this reaction is the epiglottis. It is forced to open for the air to exit outwards and the food to enter into the windpipe, triggering a cough.
Trachea
The trachea or the windpipe rises below the larynx and moves down to the neck. The walls of trachea comprise C-shaped cartilaginous rings which give hardness to the trachea and maintain it by completely expanding. The trachea extends further down into the breastbone and splits into two bronchi, one for each lung.
Bronchi
The trachea splits into two tubes termed as bronchi, which enter each lung individually. The bronchi divide into secondary, tertiary, and to bronchioles, which is again further divided into small air-sacs called the alveoli. The alveoli are minute sacs of air with thin walls and single-celled manner. It enables the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide molecules into or away from the bloodstream.
Lungs
Lungs are the chief centres of the respiration in humans and other vertebrates. They are located in the thoracic cavity of the chest near the backbone and on either side of the heart. They are the pair of large, spongy organs, mainly involved in the exchange of gases between the blood and the air. Compared to the left lung, the right lung is quite bigger and heavier.

If excessive nitrogenous compounds reach the pond,the pond water and its soil will become nutrient rich. The nitrogenous compounds absorbed by plants get converted into amino acids, nucleotides and protein, which help in plant growth and development. The higher the amount of nitrogenous compounds, the greater will be the growth of plant life. Nitrogenous compound enriched pond environment leads to rapid growth of algae and phytoplanktons, followed by more organic matter accumulation. This process is called eutrophication.

An aquarium is an artificial ecosystem and the organisms present in it are selective and maintained in a restricted environment. In the Aquarium the uneaten food as well as the waste generated by the fishes mixes with the water and is left untreated due to the lack of decomposers. The waste materials thus accumulate in the water making it toxic. Hence an aquarium has to be cleaned after regular intervals.
On the other hand, a pond or a lake ecosystem is a natural ecosystem and the types of organism present in it is balanced. The waste produced in this ecosystem serves as the food material for the decomposers and is thus eliminated by them from the water. This ensures a balance in the water body and keeps the water clean and thus does not require physical cleaning.

Through the placenta.
Placenta is a disc-shaped tissue embedded in the uterine wall. Embryo derives its nourishment from the mother’s blood through the placenta. Placenta contains villi on the side of the embryo and blood vessels surrounding villi on the side of the mother. Oxygen and glucose pass from the mother to the embryo through the placenta. In addition, the wastes are also removed into the mother’s blood through the placenta.

Reproduction through spores gives several advantages to an organism. Some of them are as follows:
- Spores can remain dormant till favourable conditions become available.
- Spores help an organism to tide over the bad phase.
- Spores can be spread through water, air or animals and thus is good for the spread of an organism to more places.

- Food web is a network of food chains where all the chains are naturally interconnected.
- Each organism is generally eaten by two or more kinds or organisms which are again eaten by several other organisms and so instead of straight line food chain, the series of organisms dependent on one another food can be shown by branched lines which is called as a food web.
- Flow of energy in a food chain is unidirectional, once it reaches the next tropic level it does not come back again.
- For example- energy which passes to the herbivores does not come back again to autotrophs.

Various roles played by decomposers in the ecosystem are:
- They decompose biodegradable substances into useful substances.
- They release nutrients into soil by decomposing dead and decaying matter, thus making the soil fertile.
- They maintain the nutrient pool by returning back the nutrients in the pool.

The modern periodic table has seven periods.
On moving from left to right in the periodic table, the metallic character of elements decreases, while the valency first increases from 1 to 4 and then decreases to 0 (zero). On moving down the group, the atomic size of the elements increases, but the valency remains the same.

| Sl. No. | Differentiating Property | Resistance | Resistivity |
| 1 | Definition | Resistance is the physical property of a substance because of which it opposes the flow of current i.e. electrons. | Resistivity is the physical property of a particular substance which is having particular dimensions. |
| 2 | Proportionality | Resistance is directly proportional to the length and temperature while it is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area of the material. | Resistivity is only proportional to the nature and temperature of the particular material. |
| 3 | Symbol | R | ρ |
| 4 | Formula | R = V/I or, R = ρ(L/A)V = Voltage, I = Current, ρ = Resistivity |
ρ = (R×A)/L
R = Resistance, L= Length, A = Cross-sectional area |
| 5 | SI Units | The SI unit of resistance is Ohms | The SI unit of resistivity is Ohms-meter. |
| 6 | Applications | The property of resistance is used in several places like heaters, fuses, sensors, etc. | Electrical resistivity measurement is used as a quality control test for calcareous soil. |

Photosynthate moves in the phloem in the form of sucrose.
The final product of photosynthesis is glucose. These sugars are essential for the plant growth and need to be transported to the lower parts of the plants through the phloem.
These sugar are transported through phloem in the form of dissolved sucrose rather than glucose because sucrose is less reactive than glucose.

Metals which lie above Hydrogen in the activity series ie. Zn, Al, Mg can displace hydrogen from dilute acids, because they are more reactive than H2. Metals which lie below hydrogen in the activity series i.e. Cu, Ag, Au cannot displace hydrogen from dilute acids, because they are less reactive than hydrogen.
