Answers
S1. Ans.(a)
Sol. Ethylene gas used for artificial fruit ripening. Acetylene acts like ethylene and accelerates the ripening process.
S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, or NPK, are the 3 primary nutrients used in fertilizers.
S3. Ans.(c)
Sol. Metal processing is the biggest source of atmospheric lead. The highest air concentrations of lead are usually found near lead smelters.
S4. Ans.(b)
Sol. Sodium bicarbonate (IUPAC name: sodium hydrogen carbonate), commonly known as baking soda.
S5. Ans.(b)
Sol. An atomic pile or nuclear reactor is used to controlled the nuclear fission to generate energy.
S6. Ans.(c)
Sol. The fizz that bubbles up when you open a soft drink is under pressure carbon dioxide gas .
S7. Ans.(d)
Sol. Type metal is an alloy of lead, tin, and antimony, used for casting type. It does not expand on going from liquid state to solid state.
S8. Ans.(c)
Sol. Plutonium is formed in nuclear power reactors from uranium. Early heart pacemakers used Pu-238 as the power source.
S9. Ans.(c)
Sol. Uranium is used to produce a chemical and nuclear reaction which makes a lot of heat. This heat is used to turn water into steam which turns turbines and thus turbines generates electricity.
S10. Ans.(d)
Sol. Magnesium chloride is the common impurity present in table salt. It is highly hygroscopic and absorbs moisture from air. Because of the presence of MgCl2 in sodium chloride (common/table salt), it becomes wet.
