Question 33.
(a) With the help of a circuit diagram derive the formula for the resultant resistance of three resistances connected in series.
Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Science Model Question Paper 3 English Medium image - 9
Let, three resistances R1, R2 and R3 be connected in series. Let the current flowing through them be I. According to Ohm’s Law, the potential differences V1, V2 and V3 across R1, R2 and R3 respectively, are given by:
V1 = IR1 …….. (1)
V2 = IR2 …….. (2)
V3 = IR3 ……. (3)
The sum of the potential differences across the ends of each resistor is given by
V = V1 + V2 + V3
Using equations (1), (2) and (3), we get
V = IR1 + IR2 + IR3 …… (4)
The effective resistor is a single resistor, which can replace the resistors effectively, so as to allow the same current through the electric circuit. Let, the effective resistance of the series-combination of the resistors, be Rs.
Then,
V = IRs …….. (5)
Combining equations (4) and (5) we get,
IRs = IR1 +IR2 + IR3
Rs = R1 + R2 + R3 …… (6)
Thus, When a number of resistors are connected in series, their effective resistance is equal to the sum of the individual resistances.
When ‘n’ resistors of equal resistance R are connected in series, the equivalent resistance is ‘n R’ i.e., Rs = n R
The equivalent resistance in a series combination is greater than the highest of the individual resistances.

Question 34.
(i) What is the mass of 1 mole of nitrogen atom?
(ii) How many moles of SO2 have same mass as 3 moles of oxygen?
(iii) How many molecules are present in 1 ml of water?
Answer:
(i) 1 × gram atomic mass of nitrogen atom
1 × 14 = 14 g

(ii) Mass of 3 moles of oxygen = 3 × 16 = 48 g
Now, mas of SO2 = 32 + [2 × 16]
= 32 + 32 = 64 g
∴ 64 g of SO2 = 1 mole
48 g SO2 = (\(\frac{1}{64}\)) × 48 = 0.75 mole

(iii) We know that density of water is 1 g /ml
Hence, 1 g water = 1 ml water
Now, We have molecular mass of water
H2O = (1 × 2) + 16 = 18 g
18 g of water contains 6.022 × 1023 molecules
1 g of water will contains = \(\frac{6.023 \times 10^{23}}{18}\) = 0.33 × 1023 molecules
So the number of molecules of water in 1 ml = 3.3 × 1022

(b) Explain the factors influencing the rate of a reaction.
Answer:
The factors influencing the rate of a reaction are,
(i) Nature of the reactants: The reaction of sodium with hydrochloric acid is faster than that with acetic acid. Do you know why? Hydrochloric acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid and thus more reactive. So, the nature of the reactants influence the reaction rate.
2Na(s) + 2HCl(aq) → 2NaCl(aq) + H2(g) (fast)
2Na(s) + 2CH3COOH(aq) → 2CH3COONa(aq) + H2(g) (slow)

(ii) Concentration of the reactants: Changing the amount of the reactants also increases the reaction rate. The amount of the substance present in a certain volume of the solution is called ‘concentration’. More particles per volume exist in it and hence faster the reaction. Granulated zinc reacts faster with 2M hydrochloric acid than 1M hydrochloric acid.

(iii) Temperature: Most of the reactions go faster at higher temperature. Because adding heat to the reactants provides energy to break more bonds and thus speed up the reaction. Calcium carbonate reacts slowly with hydrochloric acid at room temperature. When the reaction mixture is heated the reaction rate increases.

(iv) Pressure: If the reactants are gases, increasing their pressure increases the reaction rate. This is because, on increasing the pressure the reacting particles come closer and collide frequently.

(v) Catalyst: A catalyst is a substance which increases the reaction rate without being consumed in the reaction. In certain reactions, adding a substance as catalyst speeds up the reaction. For example, on heating potassium chlorate, it decomposes into potassium chloride and oxygen gas, but at a slower rate. If manganese dioxide is added, it increases the reaction rate.

(vi) Surface area of the reactants: When solid reactants are involve in a reaction, their powdered form reacts more readily. For example, powdered calcium carbonate reacts more readily with hydrochloric acid than marble chips. Because, powdering of the reactants increases the surface area and more energy is available on collision of the reactant particles. Thus, the reaction rate is increased.

IV. Explain in detail

Question 1.
Explain client side and server side scripting language?
Answer:

  1. PHP (Hypertext Pre-processor) is a one of the important server side Web and general purpose scripting language invented by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1994.
  2. It is very simple and lightweight open source server side scripting language.
  3. It can easily embed with HTML and other client side scripting languages like CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) and Java script.
  4. It also creates dynamic and interactive Webpages in the real time Web development projects
  5. Web scripting languages are classified into two types, client side and server side scripting language.
  6. PHP is completely different from Client side scripting language like Java script.
  7. The PHP code entirely executes on Webserver which is installed in the remote machine and it is generating HTML code which is sent to the user.
  8. The user receives the HTML code and sees the Website contents via Internet browser in their computer or laptop.
  9. PHP also supports OOPs (Object Oriented Programing) concepts. It is applicable to implement all OOPs features such as class, object and inheritance etc. The action is shown in Figure.

Question 2.
Discuss in detail about Website development activities?
Answer:
The process of development also includes Web content generation, Web page designing, Website security and so on.
PHP Script:
1. Website or Web page is developed by the programmer using PHP script. Finally the entire Website codes are moved to Web server path in a remote server machine.

2. From client side, the end user opens a browser, types the URL of the Website or Webpage and initiates the request to remote server machine over the network.

3. After receiving the request from client machine the Web server tries to compile and interpret the PHP code which is available in remote machine.

4. Next a response will be generated and sent back to the client machine over the network from Webserver.

5. Finally the browser which is installed in the client machine receives the response and displays the output to user.

Question 3.
Explain the process of Webserver installation?
Answer:
Web server software that runs on server hardware, governs the server side scripting compilation into an intermediate byte-code that is then interpreted by the runtime engine.

Web server software is available as open source or licensed version in the market. Recent statistics of Web server usage depict that more than 130% Websites are running under the open source Web servers such as Tomcat Apache, Nginx etc. The following are the steps to install and configure Apache Httpd Webserver and PHP module in windows server machine.

Step 1:
Go to Apache foundation Website and download the Httpd Webserver Software.
https://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi

Step 2:
After downloading .MSI file from Apache foundation Website, user launches the. MSI file and clicks next and next button to finish the installation on server machine. The software takes default port number 130 or 130130. Once the user finished, the Web server software is installed and configured on server hardware machine as a service.

Step 3:
To test the installation of Apache Httpd Webserver, enter the following URL from your Web browser which is installed in your client machine.
https://localhost:130/ or https://localhost: 130130 The output page that says “Its works”

Step 4:
Administrator user can start, stop and restart the Web server service at any time via windows Control panel. Once the services stops, the client machine will not receive the response message from server machine.

Step 5:
Webserver’s configuration setting “httpd.conf” file is located in the conf directory under the apache installation directory. Edit this file and enable the PHP module to run PHP scripting language.

Question 4.
Discuss in detail about PHP data types?
Answer:
PHP Data type:
PHP scripting language supports 13 primitive data types. Data Types plays important role in all programing languages to classify the data according to the logics. PHP supports the following data types.

  1. String
  2. Integer
  3. Float
  4. Boolean
  5. Array
  6. Object
  7. NULL
  8. Resource

1. String:
String is a collection of characters within the double or single quotes like
“Computer Application” or ‘Computer Application’. Space is also considered as a character.
Example:
$x = “Computer Application!”;

2. Integer:
Integer is a data type which contains non decimal numbers.
Example:
$x = 59135;
*
The var_dump( ) system define function, returns structured information (type and value) about variables in PHP.

3. Float:
Float is a data type which contains decimal numbers.
Example:
$x = 19.15;

4. Boolean:
Boolean is a data type which denotes the possible two states, TRUE or FALSE
Example:
$x = true;
$y = false;

5. Array:
Array is a data type which has multiple values in single variable.
Example:
Scars = array(“Computer”,“Laptop”,“Mobile”);

OUTPUT:
array(3) {[0]=> string(5) “Computer” [1]=>
string(3) “Laptop “ [2]=> string(6)” Mobile”}
Var_dump:
The var_dump( ) function is used to dump information about a variable. This function displays structured information such as type and value of the given variable. Arrays and objects are explored recursively with values indented to show structure.

6. Object:
PHP object is a data type which contains information about data and function inside-the class.
<?php
class School {
function marks( ) {
$this->sec = “A”;
}
}
// create an object
$schoolobj = new School ( );
?>
OUTPUT
NULL

7. NULL:
Null is a special data type which contains a single,value: NULL
<?php $x = null;
?>
OUTPUT:
NULL

8. Resources:
Resource is a specific variable, it has a reference to an external resource. These variables hold specific handlers to handle files and database connections in respective PHP program.
<?php
// Open a file for reading
Shandle = fopen(“note.txt”, “r”);
var_dump($handle);
echo “<br>”;
// Connect to MySQL database server with
default setting
Slink = mysql_connect(“localhost”, “root”, “”);
var_dump($link);
?>

Question 23.
State and prove the law of conservation of linear momentum.
Answer:
(i) There is no change in the linear momentum of a system of bodies as long as no net external force acts on them.
(ii) Let us prove the law of conservation of linear momentum with the following illustration:
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Science Model Question Paper 5 English Medium image - 2
(iii) Let two bodies A and B having masses m1 and m2 move with initial velocity u1 and u2 in a straight line.
(iv) Let the velocity of the first body be higher than that of the second body. i.e., u1 > u2.
(v) During an interval of time t second, they tend to have a collision. After the impact, both of them move along the same straight line with a velocity v1 and v2 respectively.
Force on body B due to A, FB = \(\frac{m_{2}\left[v_{2}-u_{2}\right]}{t}\)
Force on body A due to B, FA = \(\frac{m_{1}\left[v_{1}-u_{1}\right]}{t}\)

By Newton’s III law of motion,
Action force = Reaction force
FA = -FB
\(\frac{m_{1}\left[v_{1}-u_{1}\right]}{t}=-\frac{m_{2}\left[v_{2}-u_{2}\right]}{t}\)
m1v1 – m1u1 = -m2v2 + m2u2
m1v1 + m2v2 = m1u1 + m2u2

The above equation confirms in the absence of an external force, the algebraic sum of the momentum after collision is numerically equal to the algebraic sum of the momentum before collision. Hence file law of conservation linear momentum is proved.

  • It has a central nucleus with the abundant cytoplasm called neuroplasm.
  • The cytoplasm has large granular body called Nissel’s granules
  • Other cell organelles like mitochondria, ribosomes, lysosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum are present.
  • Several neurofibrils in the cytoplasm help in transmission of nerve impulses to and form the cell body.

(2) Dendrites:

  • These are the numerous branched cytoplasmic processes, that project from the surface of the cell body.
  • They conduct nerve impulses, towards the cyton.
  • The branched projections increase the surface area for receiving the signals from other nerve cells.

(3) Axon:

  • It is a single, elongated, slender projection.
  • The end of axon terminates as fine branches, which terminate into knob like swellings called synaptic knob.
  • The plasma membrane of axon is called axolemma,
  • The cytoplasm of axon is called axoplasm.
  • Axon carries impulses away from the cyton.
  • The protective sheath around the axon is myelin sheath
  • The myelin sheath breaks at intervals by depression called Nodes of Ranvier. It acts as insulator and ensures rapid transmission of nerve impulses.
  • The junction between two neuron is called synapsis.

(ii) Explain the experiment of measuring the real and apparent expansion of a liquid with a neat diagram.
Answer:
(1) To start with, the liquid whose real and apparent expansion is to be determined is poured in a container up to a level. Mark this level as L1.
(2) Now, heat the container and the liquid using a burner as shown in the figure Initially, the container receives the thermal energy and it expands.
(3) As a result, the volume of the liquid appears to have reduced. Mark this reduced level of liquid as L2.
Samacheer Kalvi 10th Science Model Question Paper 5 English Medium image - 10
On further heating, the thermal energy supplied to the liquid through the container results in the expansion of the liquid. Hence, the level of liquid rises to L3. Now, the difference between the levels L1 and L3 is called as apparent expansion, and the difference between the levels L2 and L3 is called real expansion. The real expansion is always more than that of apparent expansion.
Real expansion = L3 – L2
Apparent expansion = L3 – L1

(b) (i) Write notes on various factors affecting solubility.
Answer:
Factors affecting solubility: There are three main factors which govern die solubility of solute. They are:

  1. Nature of the solute arid solvent
  2. Temperature
  3. Pressure

(1) Nature of the solute and solvent: The nature of the solute and solvent plays an important role in solubility. Although water dissolves an enormous variety of substances, both ionic and covalent, it does not dissolve everything.

The phrase that scientists often use when predicting solubility is “like dissolves like.” This expression means that dissolving occurs when similarities exist between the solvent and the solute. For example: Common salt is a polar compound and dissolves readily in polar solvent like water.

Non-polar compounds are soluble in non-polar solvents. For example, Fat dissolved in ether. But non-polar compounds, do not dissolve in polar solvents; polar compounds do not dissolve in non-polar solvents.

(2) Effect of Temperature:
Solubility of Solids in Liquid: Generally, solubility of a solid solute in a liquid solvent increases with increase in temperature. For example, a greater amount of sugar will dissolve in warm water than in cold water.
In endothermic process, solubility increases with increase in temperature.
In exothermic process, solubility decreases with increase in temperature.

Solubility of Gases in liquid : Solubility of gases in liquid decrease with increase in temperature. Generally, water contains dissolved oxygen. When water is boiled, the solubility of oxygen in water decreases, so oxygen escapes in the form of bubbles.

Aquatic animals live more in cold regions because, more amount of dissolved oxygen is present in the water of cold regions. This shows that the solubility of oxygen in water is more at low temperatures.

(3) Effect of Pressure: Effect of pressure is observed only in the case of solubility of a gas in a liquid. When the pressure is increased, the solubility of a gas in liquid increases.

The common examples for solubility of gases in liquids are carbonated beverages, i.e. soft drinks, household cleaners containing aqueous solution of ammonia, formalinaqueous solution of fonnaldehyde, etc.

  • Forests are the important component of our environment and are dominated by microorganisms, flowering plants, shrubs, climbers and dense trees.
  • Forests provide a vast habitat for wild animals.
  • Forests help for the economic development of our country.
  • Forests are the source for a wide range of renewable natural resource.
  • Forests provide wood, food, fodder, fibre and medicine.
  • They act as carbon sink, regulate climatic conditions, increase rainfall and reduce global warming.
  • Forests protect wild life and also acts as catchment for water conservation.
  • They prevent natural hazards like floods and landslides
  • They play a vital role in maintaining the ecological balance.

(b) (i) List out any three parasitic adaptations in leech.
(ii) Natural selection is a driving force for evolution-How?
Answer:
(i) Parasitic adaptation of leech:

  • Anterior and Posterior ends of the body are provided with suckers by which the animal attaches itself to the body of the host.
  • The three Jaws, inside the mouth, causes a painless Y – shaped wound in the skin of the host.
  • The salivary glands produce Hirudin, which does not allow the blood to coagulate. So, the continuous supply of blood is maintained.

(ii) Darwin published his observations under the name “origin of species”. It elaborates on the theory of natural selection for evolutionary transformation. The principles of Darwinism tells that natural selection is a driving force for evolution.

1. Overproduction: Living beings have the ability to reproduce and have the capacity to multiply in a geometrical manner.

2. Struggle for existence: Due to overproduction a geometric ratio of increase in population occurs. The space to live and food available for the organisms remain the same. This creates a competition among the organisms, for food and space, leading to struggle.

  • The competition may be among the individuals of the same species (Intraspecific struggle).
  • Competition between the organisms of different species living together (Interspecific struggle).
  • Natural conditions like extreme heat or cold drought and floods can affect the existence of organisms (Environmental struggle).

3. Variations:
Small variations are important for evolution. According to Darwin, favourable variations are useful to the organisms and unfavourable variations are harmful or useless to the organisms.

4. Survival of the fittest or Natural selection:
During the struggle for existence, the organisms which can overcome the challenging situation,survive and adapt to the surrounding environment. Organisms, which are unable to face the challenges, are unfit to survive and disappear. The process of selection of organisms with favourable variation is called as Natural selection.

5. Origin of species:
According to Darwin, new species originates by the gradual accumulation of favourable variations for a number of generations.

1. Chemisorption involves high activation energy so it is also referred to as activated adsorption.

2. It is found in chemisorption that it first increases and then decreases with increase in temperature. When adsorption is plotted, the graph first increases and then decreases with temperature.

3. The initial increase illustrates the requirement of activation of the surface for adsorption is due to fact that the formation of activated complex requires certain energy. But later it decreases at high temperature is due to desorption as the kinetic energy of the adsorbate increases (exothermic nature)

Question 4.
Which will be adsorbed more readily on the surface of charcoal and why; NH3 or CO2?
Answer:
1. The gases having low critical temperature are adsorbed slowly, while gases with high critical temperature are adsorbed readily.

2. Among CO2, and NH3, NH3 will be more readily adsorbed on the surface of the charcoal. This is because the critical temperature of ammonia gas is quite high than the CO2. Hence, it easily combines with the materials than the CO2 whether it is solid, liquid or any gases.

Question 5.
Heat of adsorption is greater for chemisorptions than physisorption. Why?
Answer:
Chemisorption has higher heat of adsorption. because in chemisorption the chemical bonds are much stronger. In adsorbed state the adsorbate is hold on the surface of adsorbent by attractive forces (bond). And chemisorption is irreversible one. Therefore, heat of adsorption is greater for chenil sorptions than physisorption. Chemisorption, heat of adsorption range 40 – 400kJ/mole.

Question 6.
In a coagulation experiment 10 mL of a colloid (X) is mixed with distilled water and 0.1M solution of an electrolyte AB so that the volume is 20 mL. It was found that all solutions containing more than 6.6 mL of AB coagulate with in 5 minutes. What is the flocculation values of AB for sol (X)?
Answer:
A minimum of 6.6mL of AB is required to coagulate the sol. The moles of AB in the sol is
\(\frac{6.6 \times 0.01}{20}\) = 0.033 moles
This means that a minimum of 0.033 moles or 0.0033 x 1000 = 3.3 milli moles are required for coagulating one litre of sol. Flocculation value of AB for X = 3.3

Question 7.
Peptising agent is added to convert precipitate into colloidal solution. Explain with an example.
Answer:
1. Ions either positive or negative of peptizing agent (electrolyte) are adsorbed on the particles of precipitate. They repel and hit each other and break the particles of the precipitate into colloidal size.

2. For example, when we add a small volume of very dilute hydrochloric acid solution peptising agent to a fresh precipitate of a silver chloride, it leads to formation of silver chloride colloidal solution,

Question 8.
What happens when a colloidal sol of Fe(OH)3 and As2S3 are mixed?
Answer:
On mixing Fe(OH)3 positive sol and As2S3 negative sol, mutual coagulation occurs which causes precipitation. When these sol got mixed with each other, due to Fe3+ and S2- ions neutralisation of charges will happen and precipitate will be formed.
Fe(OH)3 + As2S3 → Fe2S3 + As(OH)3

Question 9.
What is the difference between sol and a gel?
Answer:
Sol

  1. The liquid state of a colloidal solution is called sol.
  2. The sol does not have a definite structure.
  3. The dispersion medium of the sol may be water.
  4. The sol can be converted to gel by cooling The sol can be easily dehydrated.
  5. The viscosity of the sol is very low.
  6. Sol is categorized into lyophobic and lyophilic sols.
  7. Example: Blood

Gel

  1. The solid or semi-solid state of a colloidal solution is called gel.
  2. The gel possesses honey comb-like structure.
  3. The dispersion medium of gel will be hydrated colloid particles.
  4. The gel can be converted sol by heating.
  5. The gel cannot be dehydrated.
  6. The viscosity of the gel is very high.
  7. There is no such classification of gel.
  8. Example: Fruit jelly, cooked gelatin jelly.

Question 10.
Why are lyophillic colloidal sols are more stable than lyophobic colloidal sol?
Answer:
1. A lyophilic colloidal sols are stable due to the charge and the hydration of sol particles.

2. Lyophilic sols are more stable than lyophobilc sols because they are highly hydrated in the solution. And since more is the hydration more will be its stability.

3. Lyophilic sols are stabilized by electrostatic charge and hydration where as lyophobile sols are only stabilized by charge, so they easily gets coagulated and requires a stabilising agent. Hence, lyophilic sols are more stable than lyophobilc sols.

Question 11.
Addition of Alum purifies water. Why?
Answer:
Purification of drinking water is activated by coagulation of suspended impurities in water using alums containing Al3+. That is why we are adding to purify water.

Question 12.
What are the factors which influence the adsorption of a gas on a solid?
Answer:
Factors which influence the adsorption of a gas on a solid is as follows:
1. Nature of the gas:
Easily liquefiable gases such as NH3, HCl etc are adsorbed to a great extent in comparison to gases such as H2, O2, etc. This is because van der Waal’s forces are stronger is easily liquifiable gases.

2. Surface area of the solid:
The greater the surface area of the adsorbent, the greater is the adsorption of gas on the solid surface.

3. Effect of pressure:
Adsorption is a reversible process and is accompanied by a decrease in pressure. Therefore, adsorption increases with an increase in pressure.

4. Effect of temperature:
Adsorption is an exothermic process. Thus in accordance with Le – Chatelier’s principle, the magnitude of adsorption decreases with an increase in temperature.

Question 13.
What are enzymes? Write a brief note on the mechanism of enzyme catalysis.
Answer:
Enzymes are complex protein molecules with three-dimensional structures. They catalyse the chemical reaction in a living organism. They are often present in colloidal state and extremely specific in catalytic action.

Each enzyme produced in a particular living cell can catalyse a particular reaction in the cell. Mechanism of enzyme catalysis: Mechanism of enzyme catalysed reaction is known as lock and key mechanism.
1. Enzymes arc highly specific in their action.

2. This specificity is due to the pressure of active sites. The shape of active site of any given enzyme is like cavity such that only a specific substrate can fit into it.

In the same way a key fits into lock. The specific binding needs the formation of an enzyme-substrate complex which accounts for high specificity of enzyme-catalyzed reactions.

3. Once the proper orientation is attained the substrate molecules react to form the product in two steps.

4. Since the product molecule does not have an affinity for the enzyme they leave the enzyme surface making room for the fresh substrate.

Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-4

step 1: Formation of the enzyme-substrate complex
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-5
Step 2: Dissociation of the enzyme-substrate complex to form product
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-6
The rate of the formation of the product depends upon the concentration of ES.

Question 14.
What do you mean by activity and selectivity of catalyst?
Answer:
1. Activity of Catalyst:
The activity of a catalyst is its ability to increase the rate of a particular reaction, Chemisorption is the main factor in deciding the activity of a catalyst. The adsorption of reactants in the catalyst surface should be neither too strong nor too weak. It should just be strong enough to make the catalyst active.

2. Selectivity of the catalyst:
The ability of the catalyst to direct a reaction to yield a particular product is referred to as the selectivity of the catalyst. For example, by using different catalysts, we can get different products for the reaction between H2 and CO.

Question 15.
Describe some features of catalysis b Zeolites.
Answer:

  1. Zeolites are microporous, crystalline, hydrated aluminosilicates, made of silicon and aluminium tetrahedra.
  2. There are about 50 natural zeolites and 1 50 synthetic zeolites. As silicon is tetravalent and aluminium is trivalent, the zeolite matrix carries an extra negative charge. To balance the negative charge, there are extra framework cations, for example, H+ or Na+ ions.
  3. Zeolites earring protons are used as solid acids, catalysis and they are extensively used in the petrochemical industry for cracking heavy hydrocarbon fractions into gasoline, diesel, etc.
  4. Zeolites earring Na ions are used as basic catalysis.
  5. One of the most important applications of zeolites is their shape selectivity. In zeolites, the active sites namely protons are lying inside their pores. So, reactions occur only inside the pores of zeolites.

Question 16.

Question 17.
Why does the bleeding stop by rubbing moist alum?
Answer:
Blood is a colloidal sol. When we nib the injured part with moist alum then coagulation of blood takes place. Hence main reason is coagulation, which stops the bleeding. Therefore bleeding stop by rubbing moist alum.

Question 18.
Why is desorption important for a substance to act as good catalyst?
Answer:
Desorption is important for a substance to act as a good catalyst, so that after the reaction, the products found on the surface separate out (desorbed) to create free surface again for other reactant molecules to approach the surface and react. If desorption does not occur then other reactants are left with no space on the surface of the catalyst for adsorption and the reaction will stop.

Question 19.
Comment on the statement: Colloid is not a substance but it is a state of substance.
Answer:
The statement is true. Because the same substance may exist as a colloid under certain conditions and as a crystalloid under certain other conditions. For example. NaCl in water behaves as a crystalloid while in benzene, it behaves as a colloid. Similarly, dilute soap solution behaves

like a crystalloid while concentrated solutions behaves as a colloid. It is the size of the particles which matters. That is the state in which the substance exists. If the size of the particles lies in the range 1 nm to 1oo nm, it is in the colloidal state.

Question 20.
Explain any one method for coagulation
Answer:
The flocculation and setting down of the sol particles is called coagulation. Various method of coagulation are given below:

  1. Addition of electrolytes
  2. Electrophoresis
  3. Mining oppositely charged sols
  4. Boiling.

Addition of electrolytes
A negative ion causes the precipitation of positively charged sol and vice versa. When the valency of ion is high, the precipitation power is increased. For example, the precipitation power of some cations and anions varies in the following order
Al3+ > Ba2+ > Na+, Similarly [Fe(CN)6]-3 > SO4-2 > Cl
The precipitation power of electrolyte is determined by finding the minimum concentration (millimoles/lit) required to cause precipitation of a sol in 2hours. This value is called the flocculation value. The smaller the flocculation value greater will be precipitation.

Question 21.
Write a note on electroosmosis.
Answer:
Electro osmosis:
A sol is electrically neutral. Hence the medium carries an equal but opposite charge to that of dispersed particles. When sol particles are prevented from moving, under the influence of electric field the medium moves in a direction opposite to that of the soil particles. This movement of dispersion medium under the influence of electric potential is called electro-osmosis.

Question 22.
Write a note on catalytic poison
Answer:
Catalytic poison:
Certain substances when added to a catalysed reaction, decreases or completely destroys the activity of catalyst and they are often known as catalytic poisons. For example, In the reaction,
2SO2 + O2 → 2SO3 with a Pt catalyst, the poison is AS2O3.
i.e., AS2O3 destroys the activity of pt. AS2O3 blocks the activity of the catalyst. So, the activity is lost.

Question 23.
Explain the intermediate compound formation theory of catalysis with an example.
Answer:
The intermediate compound formation theory:
A catalyst acts by providing a new path with low energy of activation. in homogeneously catalysed reactions a catalyst may combine with one or more reactant to form an intermediate which reacts with other reactant or decompose to give products and the catalyst is regenerated.

Consider the reactions:
A + B → AB ……………(1)
A + C → AC (intermediate) ………….(2)
C is the catalyst
AC + B → AB + C …………(3)
Activation energies for the reactions (2) and (3) are lowered compared to that of (1). Hence the formation and decomposition of the intermediate accelerate the rate of the reaction.
Example:
The mechanIsm of Fridel crafts reaction is given below
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-9
The action of catalyst is explained as follows .
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-10

This theory describes,

  1. The specificity of a catalyst.
  2. The increase in the rate of the reaction with increase in the concentration of a catalyst.

Limitations

  1. The intermediate compound theory fails to explain the action of catalytic poison and activators (promoters).
  2. This theory is unable to explain the mechanism of heterogeneous catalysed reactions.

Question 24.
What is the difference between homogenous and hetrogenous catalysis?
Answer:
Hornogenous Catalysis:

  1. In a catalysed reaction the reactants, products and catalyst are present in the same phase.
  2. For example.
    Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-11
    Hence NO act as catalyst.
  3. Homogeneous catalysis explained by intermediate compound formation theory.

Heterogeneous Catalysis:

  1. In a reaction, the catalyst is present in a different phase. i.e., catalyst is not present in the same phase as that of reactants and products.
  2. For example.
    Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-12
    Hence Pt(s) act as catalyst.
  3. Hetenogeneous catalysis explained by adsorption theory.

Question 25.
Describe adsorption theory of catalysis.
Answer:
Adsorption theory:
Langmuir explained the action of catalyst in heterogeneous catalysed reactions based on adsorption. The reactant molecules are adsorbed on the catalyst surfaces, so this can also he called as contaçt catalysis.

According to this theory, the reactants arc adsorbed on the catalyst surface to form an activated complex which subsequently decomposes and gives the product. The various steps involved in a heterogeneous catalysed rcacton arc given as follows:

  1. Reactant molecules diffuse from bulk to the catalyst surface.
  2. The reactant molecules are adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst.
  3. The adsorbed reactant molecules are activated and form activated complex which is decomposed to form the products.
  4. The product molecules are desorbed.
  5. The product diffuse away from the surface of the catalyst.

Advantages of adsorption theory:
The adsorption theory explains the following .
1. Increase in the activity of a catalyst by increasing the surface area. Increase in the surface area of metals and metal oxides by reducing the particle size increases the rate of the reaction.

2. The action of catalytic poison occurs when the poison blocks the active centres of the catalyst.

3. A promoter or activator increases the number of active centres on the surfaces.

  1. Adsorbent
  2. Adsorbate with an example.

Answer:

  1. Adsorbent is a material on which adsorption takes place. eg., silica gel and metals like Ni, Cu, Pt.
  2. Adsorbate is a substance which is adsorbed on the adsorbent. e.g., Gaseous molecules like He, Ne, O2, N2 and solutions of NaCI (or) KCI.

Question 2.
Define

  1. Interface
  2. Desorption.

Answer:
1. Interface:
The surface of separation of the two phases where the concentration of adsorbed molecule is high is known as interface.

2. Desorption:
The process of removing an adsorbed substance from the substance is called desorption.

Question 3.
What is adsorption? What is meant by positive and negative adsorption?
Answer:
Adsorption is the odhesion of atoms, ions or molecules from a gas, liquid or dissolved solid to a surface. In adsorption, if the concentration of a substance in the interface is high, then it is called positive adsorption. 1f it is less, then it is called negative adsorption.

Question 4.
Define chemical adsorption? Give example.
Answer:
Chemical adsorption is a process in which gas molecules are held to the surface by formation of chemical bonds. e.g., Adsorption of O2 on tungsten, Adsorption of H2 on nickel.

Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry

Question 5.
Chemical adsorption is an exothermic process. Justify this statement.
Answer:
In chemical adsorption, gas molecules are held to the surface by the formation of strong bond. Due to this 400kJ/mole is given out as heat of adsorption. Since heat is evolved, it is an exothermic process.

Question 6.
Why physical adsorption take place at low temperature?
Answer:
In physical adsorption, the forces between the adsorbent and adsorbate are very weak, heat of adsorption is low and hence physical adsorption occurs at low temperature.

Question 7.
What are the forces exist in physical adsorption?
Answer:
In physical adsorption, physical forces like van der Waals force of attraction exist between adsorbent and adsorbate.
The other forces that can cause physical adsorption are

  1. dipole-dipole interaction
  2. dispersion forces.

Question 8.
What is physical adsorption? Give example.
Answer:
Physcial adsorption is a process in which adsorbate are attached to adsorbent by means of weak van der Waals forces of attraction. e.g.,

  1. Adsorption of N2 on mica
  2. Adsorption of gases on charcoal.

Question 9.
Finely divided Nickel is a better adsorbent than Nickel crystal.
Answer:
As the adsorption is a surface phenomenon it depends on the surface area of adsorbent. i.e., higher the surface area, higher is the amount adsorbed. Finely divided Nickel has longer surface area and it is a better adsorbent than Nickel crystal.

Question 10.
NH3, CO2 are readily adsorbed where as H2, N2 are slowly adsorbed. Give reason.
Answer:
1. The nature of adsorbate can influence the adsorption. Gases like NH3 CO2 are easily liquefiable as have greater van der Waals forces of attraction and hence readily adsorbed due to high critical temperature.

2. But permanent gases like H2, N2 can not be easily liquefied and having low critical temperature and adsorbed slowly.

Question 11.
What is meant by adsorption isotherm?
Answer:
A plot between the amount of adsorbate adsorbed and pressure or concentration of adsorbate at constant temperature is called adsorption isotherm.

Question 12.

  2. CO act as catalytic poison for Pt catalyst.

Question 24.
Explain the relation between activation energy and the rate of the reaction using catalyst.
Answer:
1. For a chemical reaction to occur, the reactants are to be activated to form a activated complex. The energy required for the reactants to reach the activated complex is called the activation energy. The activation energy can be decreased by increasing the reaction temperature.

2. In the presence of catalyst, the reactants are activated at reduced temperatures. i.e., the activation energy is lowered. The catalyst adsorbs the reactants activates them by weakening the bonds and allow them to react to form products.

3. As activation energy is lowered in the presence of a catalyst, more molecules take part in the reaction and hence the rate of the reaction increases.

Question 25.
What are the merits and limitations of the intermediate compound theory?
Answer:
Merits:

  1. The specificity of a catalyst
  2. The mercase in the rate of the reaction with increase in the concentration of catalyst.

Limitations:

  1. This theory fails to explain the action of catalytic poison and promoters.
  2. This theory is unable to explain the mechanism of heterogeneous catalysed reactions.

Question 26.
What are active centres?
Answer:

  1. The surfiice of a catalyst is not smooth. It bears steps, cracks and corners. Hence the atoms on such locations of the surface are coordinatively unsaturated.
  2. The have residual force of attraction. Such sites are called active centres. So the surface cames high surface free energy.

Question 27.

Write three distinct differences between physical adsorption and chemisorption.
Answer:
Physical adsorption

  1. Forces of attraction between the adsorbent and adsorbate molecules are weak Van der Waals’ forces,
  2. Heat of adsorption is low (20-40 kJ mol1)
  3. It is temporary and reversible.

Chemical adsorption

  1. Forces between the adsorbent and the adsorbate are strong chemical bond.
  2. Heat of adsorption is high (80-24OkJ mol1)
  3. It is permanent and irreversible.

Question 46.
Explain the following observations.
Answer:

  1. Lyophilic colloid is more stable than lyophobic colloid.
  2. Coagulation takes place when sodium chloride solution added to a colloidal solution of ferric hydroxide.
  3. Sky appears blue in colour.

Answer:
1. A lyophilic sol is stable duc to the charge and the hydration of the sol particles. Such a sol can only be coagulatd by removing the water and adding solvents like alcohol, acetone, etc. and then an electrolyte. On the other hand, a lyophobic soils stable due to charge only and hence it can he easily coagulated by adding small amount of an electrolyte.

2. The colloidal particles get precipitated. i.e., ferric hydroxide is precipitated.

3. The atmospheric particles of colloidal range scatter blue component of the white sunlight preferentially. That is why the sky appears blue.

Question 47.

  1. Heat of adsorption is greater for chemisorption than physisorption. Why?
  2. What is colloldion?
  3. Differentiate between peptization and coagulation.

Answer:

  1. Due to the formation of chemical bond between adsorbate and adsorbent.
  2. 4% solution of nitro cellulose in a mixture of alcohol and ether.
  3. Peptisation is the process of converting a precipitate into colloidal sol by adding an electrolyte. Rut coagulation is the settling of colloidal particles.

Question 48.
Give reasons for the following.

  1. Enzyme catalysts are highly specific in their action.
  2. The path of light beconies visible wheti it is passed through As2S3 sol ¡n water.
  3. The enthalpy in case of chemisorption is usually higher than that of physisorption.

Answer:

1. This is because each enzyme has a specific active site on which only a particular substrate can bind. ,

2. This is because of Tyndall effect caused due to the scattering of light by colloidal particles of As2S3 sol.

3. Chemisorption involves the formation ofa chemical bond between adsorbent and adsorbate molecule which involves high energy changes while in physisorption, the molecules of adsorbate and adsorbent arc held by weak van der Waals’ interactions.

Question 49.
What is adsorption? How does adsorption ola gas on a solid surface vary with pressure? Illustrate with the help of an appropriate graph.
Answer:
Adsorption is the phenomenon of attracting and retaining the molecules of a substance on the surface of a liquid or a solid, resulting in higher concentration of the molecules on the surface.

Effect of pressure:
At constant temperature, the adsorption of gas increases with increase of pressure of the gas. At low pressure. it increases rapidly. At an equilibrium pressure. the extent of adsorption (x/m) reaches its maximum value after which adsorption is independent of pressure.
\(\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{m}}=\mathrm{kP}^{1 / \mathrm{n}}\)
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-74

Question 50.
How do size of particles of adsorbent, pressure of a gas and prevailing temperature influence of extent of adsorption of a gas on a solid?
Answer:
1. Effect of size of the particles of adsorbent: Greater the specific area of the solid available for adsorption of adsorbent, greater would be its adsorbing power. That is why porous or finely divided forms of adsorbents more strongly. However, the size of pores should be large enough to allow the diffusion of gas molecules.

2. Effect of pressure:
Increase in pressure initially increases the adsorption which later attains equilibrium at high pressure.
\(\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{m}}=\mathrm{kP}^{1 / \mathrm{n}}\) (n>1)

Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Surface Chemistry 5 Mark Questions and Answers

Question 1.
What is adsorption isotherm? Explain about Freundlich adsorption isotherm.
Answer:
1. Adsorption isotherms represents the variation of adsorption at constant temperature. Adsorption isoterm can be studied quantitatively.

2. A plot between the amount of adsorbate adsorbed and pressure or concentration of adsorbate at constant temperature is called adsorption isotherms.

3. Freundlich adsorption isotherm. According to Freundlich
\(\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{m}}=\mathrm{kP}^{1 / \mathrm{n}}\)
Where x is the amount of adsorbate (or) adsorbed on ‘m’ gm of adsorbent at a pressure of P. k and n are constants. Value of’n’ is always less than unity.

4. This equation is applicable for adsorption of gases on solid surfaces. The Same equation becomes \(\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{m}}=\mathrm{kc}^{1 / \mathrm{n}}\) when used for adsorption in solutions with ‘c’ as concentration.

5. These equation quantitatively predict the effect of pressure (or concentration) on the adsorption of gases (or adsorbates) at constant temperature.

6. Taking log on both sides of equation
\(\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{m}}=\mathrm{kP}^{1 / \mathrm{n}}\)
log \(\frac { x }{ m }\) = log k + \(\frac { 1 }{ n }\) log P
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-75

7. Hence the intercept represents the value of log k and the slope \(\frac { b }{ q }\) gives \(\frac { 1 }{ n }\)

8. This equation explains the increase of with increase in pressure. But experimental values shows the deviation at low pressure.

9. Limitations:

  1. This equation is purely empirical and valid over a limited pressure range.
  2. The value of k and n also found vary with temperatures. No theoretical explanations were given.

Question 2.
Define catalyst. What are the characteristics of catalysts?
Answer:
A catalyst is defined as a substance which alters the rate of chemical reaction without itself undergoing chemical change.
Characteristics of catalyst:
1. For chemical reaction, catalyst is needed in very small quantity. Generally, a pinch of catalyst is enough for a reaction in bulk.

2. There may be some physical changes, but the catalyst remains unchanged in mass and chemical composition in a chemical reaction.

3. A catalyst itself cannot initiate a reaction. It means it cannot start a reaction which is not taking place. Rut, lithe reaction is taking place in a slow rate it can increase its rate.

4. A solid catalyst will be more effective if it is taken in a finely divided form.

5. A catalyst can catalyse a particular type of reaction, hence they are said to be specific in nature.

6. In an equilibrium reaction, presence of catalyst reduces the time for attainment of equilibrium and hence it does not affect the position
of equilibrium and the value of equilibrium constant.

7. A catalyst is highly effective at a particular temperature called as optimum temperature.

8. Presence of a catalyst generally does not change the nature of products.

9. For example 2SO2 + O2 → 2SO3
This reaction is slow in the absence of a catalyst, but fast in the presence of Pt catalyst.

Question 3.
What is enzyme catalysis? Give the characteristics of enzyme catalysed reaction?
Answer:
Enzymes are complex protein molecules with three dimensional structures. They catalyse the chemical reaction in living organism. They are often present in colloidal state and extremely specific in catalytic action. This process is called enzyme catalysis.
Special characteristics of enzyme catalysis:
1. Effective and efficient conversion is the special characteristic of enzyme catalysed reactions. An enzyme may transform a million molecules of reactant in a minute.
For e.g., 2H2O2 → 2H2O + O2
For this reaction, activation energy is 1 8k.cal/mole without a catalyst. With colloidal platinum as a catalyst, the activation energy is 11.7 k.cal/mole. But with the enzyme catalyst. the activation energy of this reaction is less than 2 k.cal / mole.

2. Enzyme catalysis is highly specific in nature.
H2N – CO – NH2 + H2O → 2NH3 + H2O
The enzyme urcase which catalyses the reaction of urea does not catalyse the hydrolysis of methyl urea (NH2 – CO – NHCH3)

3. Enzyme catalysed reaction has maximum rate at optimum temperature. At first rate of the reaction increases with increase of temperature, but above a particular temperature, the activity of enzyme is destroyed. The rate may even drop to zero. The temperature at which enzyrnic activity is high (or) maximum is called as optimum temperature. e.g., enzyme involved in human body have an optimum temperature 37°C / 98°F.

4. The rate of enzyme catalysed reactions varies with the pH of the system. The rate is maximum at a pH called optimum pH.

5. Enzymes can be inhibited i.e., poisoned. Activity of an enzyme is decreased and destroyed by a poison. The physiological action of drugs is related to their inhibiting action. e.g.. sulpha drugs, penicillin inhibits the action of bacteria and used for curing diseases like
pneumonia, dysentery, cholera.

6. Catalytic activity of enzymes is increased by coenzymes or activators. A small non protein (vitamin) called a coenzyme promotes the catalytic activity of enzyme.

Question 4.
Explain about phase transfer catalysis.
Answer:
1. Consider the reactant of a reaction is present in one solvent and the other reactant is present in an another solvent. The reaction between them is very slow, if the solvents are immisible.

2. As the solvents form separate phases, the reactants have to migrate across the boundary to react. But migration of reactants across the boundary is not easy. For such situation, a third solvent is added which is miscible with both. So, the phase boundary is eliminated the reactants freely mix and react fast.

3. But for large scale preparation of any product, use of a third solvent is not convenient as it may be expensive. For such problems, phase transfer catalysis provides a simple solution, which avoids the use of solvents.

4. it directs the use of a phase transfer catalyst (a phase transfer reagent) to facilitate transport of a reactant in one solvent to other solvent where the second reactant is present. As the reactants are now brought together, they rapidly react and form the product.

5. Example – Substitution of C1 and CN in the following reaction.
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-76
R Cl = 1 – chloro octane
R CN = 1 – cyano octane

6. By direct heating of two phase mixture of organic 1 – chioro Octane with aqueous sodium cyanide for several days, 1 – cyano octane is not obtained. However, if a small amount of quarternary ammonium salt like tetra alkyl ammonium cation which has hydrophobic and hydrophilic ends, transports CN – from the aqueous phase to the organic phase using its hydrophilic end and facilitates the reactions with 1 – chloro octane as shown below
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Surface Chemistry-77

7. So phase transfer catalyst, speeds up the reaction by transporting one reactant from one phase to another.

3. Hydrolysis:
Ferric chloride is hydrolysed to get ferric hydroxide colloid
FeCl3 + 3H2O → Fe(OH)3(sol) + 3HCI

4. Double decomposition:
When hydrogen suiphide gas is passed through a solution of arsenic oxide, a yellow coloured arsenic sulphide is obtained as a colloidal solution.
As2O3 – 3H2S → As2S3 + 3H2O

5. Decomposition:

2. Size:
The size of colloidal particles ranges from Imp to 1pm diameter.

3. Colloidal solutions are heterogeneous in nature:
They have two distinct phases. Experiments like dialysis. ultrafiltration show the heterogeneous in nature but they are considered as borderline cases.

4. Filterability:
As the size of pores in ordinary filter paper are large, the colloidal particles easily pass through the ordinary filter papers.

5. Non setting nature:
Colloidal solutions are quite stable i.e., they are not affected by gravtiy.

6. Concentration and density:
When the colloidal solution is dilute, it is stable. When the volume of medium is decreased, coagulation occurs. Density of sol decreases with
decrease in the concentration.

7. Diffusability:
Unlike true solution, colloids diffuse less readily through membranes.

8. Colligative properties:
The colloidal solutions show colligative properties such as elevation of boiling point, depression in freezing point and osmotic pressure. These. properties are used to determine molecular weight of colloidal particles.

12. Electrical property:
Helmholtz double layer. electrophoresis and electro osmosis are electrical properties of colloids.

Question 8.
Explain about Electrophoresis (or) Cataphoresis (or) How would you detect the presence of charges on sol particles? (or) Explain about the method used to detect the presence of charge on sol particles. Electrophoresis (or) cataphoresis:

Answer:
1. When electric potential is applied across two platinum electrodes dipped in a hydrophilic sol, the dispersed particles move toward one or other electrode. This migration of sol particles under the influence of electric field is called electrophoresis.

2. If the sol particles migrate to the cathode, then they possess positive charges and if the sol particles migrate to the anode, they have negative charges. Thus from the direction Afiet of migration of sol particles, we can determine the charge of the sol particles. Hence electrophoresis is used for the detection of presence of change on the sol particles.

Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Bio Zoology Solutions Chapter 3 Reproductive Health
Cervical cancer:
Cervical cancer is caused by a sexually transmitted virus called Human Papillomavirus (HPV). HPV may cause abnormal growth of cervical cells or cervical dysplasia. The most common symptoms and signs of cervical cancer are pelvic pain, increased vaginal discharge, and abnormal vaginal bleeding. The risk factors for cervical cancer include

  • Having multiple sexual partners
  • Prolonged use of contraceptive pills

Cervical cancer can be diagnosed by a Papanicolaou smear (PAP smear) combined with an HPV test. X-Ray, CT scan, MRI, and PET scan may also be used to determine the stage of cancer. The treatment options for cervical cancer include radiation therapy, surgery and chemotherapy.

Modem screening techniques can detect precancerous changes in the cervix. Therefore screening is recommended for women above 30 years once in a year. Cervical cancer can be prevented with vaccination. Primary prevention begins with HPV vaccination of girls aged 9-13 years before they become sexually active. Modification in lifestyle can also help in preventing cervical cancer. A healthy diet, avoiding tobacco usage, preventing early marriages, practicing monogamy and regular exercise minimize the risk of cervical cancer.

Question 17.
How are STDs transmitted?
Answer:
Sexually transmitted diseases (STD) are called Sexually transmitted infections (STI). Normally STI is transmitted from person to person during intimate sexual contact with an infected partner. Infections like Hepatitis-B and HIV are transmitted sexually as well as by sharing of infusion needles, surgical instruments, etc with infected people, blood transfusion or from infected mother to baby.

5 – Mark Question

Question 1.
Give a detailed account of various natural methods of contraception.
Answer:
Natural method is used to prevent meeting of sperm with ovum, i.e., Rhythm method (safe period), coitus interruptus, continuous abstinence and lactational amenorrhoea.

a. Periodic abstinence/rhythm method: Ovulation occurs at about the 14th day of the menstrual cycle. Ovum survives for about two days and sperm remains alive for about 72 hours in the female reproductive tract. Coitus is to be avoided during this time.

b. Continuous abstinence is the simplest and most reliable way to avoid pregnancy is not to have coitus for a defined period that facilitates conception.

c. Coitus interruptus is the oldest family planning method. The male partner withdraws his penis before ejaculation, thereby preventing the deposition of semen into the vagina.

d. Lactational amenorrhoea: Menstrual cycles resume as early as 6 to 8 weeks from parturition. However, the reappearance of normal ovarian cycles may be delayed for six months during breast-feeding. This delay in ovarian cycles is called lactational amenorrhoea. It serves as a natural, but unreliable form of birth control.

Suckling by the baby during breastfeeding stimulates the pituitary to secrete increased prolactin hormone in order to increase milk production. This high prolactin concentration in the mother’s blood may prevent the menstrual cycle by suppressing the release of GnRH (Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone) from the hypothalamus and gonadotropin secretion from the pituitary.

Question 2.
What are IUD’s? Explain its way of functioning. Also, describe their types.
Answer:
Intrauterine Devices (IUDs) are inserted by medical experts in the uterus through the vagina. These devices are available as copper releasing IUDs, hormone-releasing IUDs and non- medicated IUDs. IUDs increase the phagocytosis of sperm within the uterus. IUDs are the ideal contraceptives for females who want to delay pregnancy.

It is one of the popular methods of contraception in India and has a success rate of 95 to 99%. Copper releasing IUDs differ from each other by the amount of copper. Copper IUDs such as Cu T-380 A, Nova T, Cu 7, Cu T 380 Ag, Multiload 375, etc. release free copper and copper salts into the uterus and suppress sperm motility. They can remain in the uterus for five to ten years. Hormone-releasing IUDs such as Progestasert and LNG – 20 are often called as intrauterine systems (IUS). They increase the viscosity of the cervical mucus and thereby prevent sperms from entering the cervix. Non-medicated IUDs are made of plastic or stainless steel. Lippes loop is a double S-shaped plastic device.

Question 3.
Write in detail about cervical cancer.
Answer:
Cervical cancer is caused by a sexually transmitted virus called Human Papillomavirus (HPV). HPV may cause abnormal growth of cervical cells or cervical dysplasia.
The most common symptoms and signs of cervical cancer are pelvic pain, increased vaginal discharge and abnormal vaginal bleeding. The risk factors for cervical cancer include

  1. Having multiple sexual partners
  2. Prolonged use of contraceptive pills

Cervical cancer can be diagnosed by a Papanicolaou smear (PAP smear) combined with an HPV test. X-Ray, CT scan, MRI and a PET scan may also be used to determine the stage of cancer. The treatment options for cervical cancer include radiation therapy, surgery and chemotherapy. Modem screening techniques can detect precancerous changes in the cervix. Therefore screening is recommended for women above 30 years once in a year.

Cervical cancer can be prevented with vaccination. Primary prevention begins with HPV vaccination of girls aged 9-13 years, before they become sexually active. Modification in lifestyle can also help in preventing cervical cancer. Healthy diet, avoiding tobacco usage, preventing early marriages, practicing monogamy and regular exercise minimize the risk of cervical cancer.

Question 35.
What is urbanization? Explain its impacts.
Answer:
The process of society’s transformation from rural to urban is known as urbanization. The level of urbanization of a place is assessed based on the size of population of the towns and cities and the proportion of population engaged in non agricultural sectors. These two are closely linked to the process of industrialization and expansion of the secondary and tertiary sectors of economy.

Impacts of urbanization:

  • Urbanization and population concentration go hand – in – hand and are closely related to each other. A rapid rate of urbanization in a society is taken as an indicator of its economic development.
  • Urbanization is increasing rapidly in the developing countries including India.
  • Rural to urban migration leads to population explosion in urban areas. Metropolitan cities like Mumbai, Kolkatta and Delhi have more population than that can accommodate.

The following are the major problem of urbanization in India:

  • It creates urban sprawl.
  • It makes overcrowding in urban centres.
  • It leads to shortage of houses in urban areas.
  • It leads to the formation of slums.
  • It increases traffic congestion in cities.
  • It creates water scarcity in cities.
  • It creates drainage problems.
  • It poses the problem of solid waste management.
  • It increases the rate of crime.

Question 36.
Write about Road Safety Rules.
Answer:

  • Aware of the road signals
  • Stop, look and cross
  • Listen and ensure whether a vehicle is approaching
  • Don’t rush on roads

  • He presides over the meetings of the council of Ministers and influences its decisions.
  • The Chief Minister is the principal channel of communication between Governor and the Council of Ministers.
  • He announces the Government policies on the floor of the House. He can introduce the Bills in the Legislative Assembly.
  • For smooth functioning of the State and for good Centre – State relations, he has to develop a rapport with the Union Government.

Question 38.
Explain the role of taxation in economic development.
Answer:
The role of taxation in developing economics is as follows.

1. Resource mobilisation: Taxation enables the government to mobilise a substantial amount of revenue. The tax revenue is generated by imposing direct taxes such as personal income tax and corporate tax and indirect taxes such as customs duty, excise duty, etc.

2 Reduction in equalities of income: Taxation follows the principle of equity. The direct
taxes are progressive in nature. Also certain indirect taxes, such as taxes on luxury goods, is also progressive in nature.

3. Social welfare: Taxation generates social welfare. Social welfare is generated due to higher taxes on certain undesirable products like alcoholic products.

4. Foreign exchange: Taxation encourages exports and restricts imports, Generally developing countries and even the developed countries do not impose taxes on export items.

5. Regional development: Taxation plays an important role in regional development, Tax incentives such as tax holidays for setting up industries in backward regions, which induces business firms to set up industries in such regions.

6. Control of inflation: Taxation can be used as an instrument for controlling inflation. Through taxation the government can control inflation by reducing the tax on the commodities.

Question 39.
Write briefly the history of globalization.
Answer:
The historical background of globalization can be discussed in three steps –
(i) Archaic Globalization – It is an early form of globalization. It existed during the Hellenistic Age. It established a trade link between the Roman Empire, Parthian Empire and the Han Dynasty. The commercial links between these powers inspired the development of the Silk Road. The Islamic Golden Age was also an important early stage of globalization.

(ii) Proto Globalization – It was characterised by the rise of maritime European empires in the 16th and 17th centuries. In the 17th century, globalization became private business phenomenon like British East India Company founded in 1600, described as the first multinational company.

(iii) Modern Globalization – The 19th and 20th centuries witnessed the advent of modem globalization. Global trade and capital investment increased. Several multinational firms came into being.

Question 40.
What are the contributions of Industrialization to development?
Answer:

(i) As stated earlier, it is essential to produce inputs to other producers in an economy. Even agriculture requires inputs from industry such as fertilisers and tractors to increase productivity.

(ii) Second, a market exists for both producers and consumer goods. Even services like banking, transport and trade are dependent on production of industrial goods.

(iii) Third, by using modem methods of production, industries contribute to better productivity and hence lower cost of production of all goods produced. It therefore helps people to buy goods at a cheaper rate and help create demand for more products.

(iv) Fourth, through such expansion of production, industrialisation helps to absorb the labour force coming out of agriculture. Employment generation is therefore an important objective of industrialisation.

(v) Fifth, a related advantage of industrialisation is therefore technological change. Through use of modem techniques, industrialisation contributes to learning of such methods and their improvement. As a result labour productivity, ie, output per unit of labour input increases, which can help workers earn higher wages.

(vi) Sixth, expanding incomes lead to more demand for goods and services. If an economy is not able to produce enough to meet such demand, it has to rely on imports and therefore spend a lot of foreign exchange. If the economy does not earn enough from exporting, it will be difficult to meet the growing demand. Industrialisation therefore helps an economy to save and also generate foreign exchange through exports. .

Question 15.
A function f is defined by f(x) = 3 – 2x. Find x such that f(x2) = (f (x))2.
Answer:
f(x) = 3 – 2x
f(x2) = 3 – 2 (x2)
= 3 – 2x2
(f(x)2 = (3 – 2x)2
= 9 + 4x2 – 12x
But f(x2) = (f(x))2
3 – 2x2 = 9 + 4x2 – 12x
– 2x2 – 4x2 + 12x + 3 – 9 = 0
– 6x2 + 12x – 6 = 0
(÷ by – 6) ⇒ x2 – 2x + 1 = 0
(x – 1)(x – 1) = 0
x – 1 = 0 or x – 1 = 0
x = 1

a2 = 4
a = √4 = ± 2
The value of a = ± 2

Question 17.
Find the number of integer solutions of = 1 (mod 15).
Answer:
3x ≡ 1 (mod 15) can be written as
3x – 1 = 15k for some integer k
3x = 15k + 1
x = \(\frac{15 k+1}{3}\) = 5k + \(\frac{1}{3}\)
Since 5k is an integer, 5k + \(\frac{1}{3}\) cannot be an integer. So there is no integer solution.

Question 18.
Find the rational form of the number \(0 . \overline{123}\)
Answer:
Let x = \(0 . \overline{123}\)
= 0.123123123 ….

This is an infinite G.P
Here a = 0.123, r = \(\frac{0.000123}{0.123}\) = 0.001
Sn = \(\frac{a}{1-r}=\frac{0.123}{1-0.001}=\frac{0.123}{0.999}\)
Sn = \(\frac{41}{333}\)

Answer:
Tamil Nadu 10th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium - 2
p(x) = 12(x4 – x3)
= 12x3(x – 1)
g(x) = 8(x4 – 3x3 + 2x2)
= 8x2(x2 – 3x + 2)
= 8x2(x – 2) (x – 1)
L.C.M = 24x3(x – 1) (x – 2)
G.C.D = \(\frac{p(x) \times g(x)}{\text { L.C.M. }}\)
= \(\frac{12 x^{3}(x-1) \times 8 x^{2}(x-2)(x-1)}{24 x^{3}(x-1)(x-2)}\)

The horizontal distance between two buildings is 70 m. The angle of depression of the top of the first building when seen from the top of the second building is 45°. If the height of the second building is 120 m, find the height of the first building.
Answer:
Tamil Nadu 10th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium - 7
Let the height of the first building AD be “x” m
∴ EC = 120 – x
In the right ∆ CDE,
tan 45° = \(\frac{C E}{C D}\)
1 = \(\frac{120-x}{70}\) ⇒ 70 = 120 – x
x = 50m
∴ The height of the first building is 50 m

Question 25.
If the coefficient of variation of a collection of data is 57 and its standard deviation is 6,84, then find the mean.
Answer:
Given coefficient of variation =57
Standard deviation (σ) = 6.84
C.V = \(\frac{\sigma}{\bar{x}}\)
57 = \(\frac{6.84}{\bar{x}} \times 100\)
x̄ = \(\frac{6.84}{57} \times 100=\frac{684}{57}=12\)
∴ Arithmetic mean x̄ = 12

Question 28.
Find the value of k if 13 + 23 + 33 + ……… + k3 = 2025
Answer:
13 + 23 + 33 + ……… + k3 = 2025
\(\left[\frac{k(k+1)}{2}\right]^{2}\) = 2025
\(\frac{k(k+1)}{2}\) = \(\sqrt{2025}\) = 45
k2 + k = 90
K2 + k – 90 = 0
(k + 10) (k + 9) = 0
k = -10 or k = 9 k = 9 (k = -10) is not possible

Let A = The set of all natural numbers less than 8, B = The set of all prime numbers less than 8, C = The set of even prime number. Verify that A × (B – C) = (A × B) – (A × C)
Answer:
A= {1,2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7}; B = {2, 3, 5,7} and C= {2}
B – C = {2, 3, 5, 7} – {2}
= {3,5,7}
A × (B – C) = {1,2, 3,4, 5,6,7} × {3, 5,7}
= {(1,3) (1, 5) (1, 7) (2, 3) (2, 5) (2, 7) (3,3) (3, 5) (3, 7) (4, 3) (4, 5) (4, 7) (5,3) (5, 5) (5, 7) (6, 3) (6, 5) (6, 7) (7, 3) (7, 5) (7, 7)} …. (1)

A × B = {1,2, 3,4, 5,6,7} × {2, 3, 5,7}
= {(1,2) (1, 3) (1, 5) (1, 7) (2, 2) (2, 3) (2, 5) (2, 7) (3, 2) (3, 3) (3, 5) (3, 7) (4,2) . (4, 3) (4, 5) (4, 7) (5, 2) (5, 3) (5, 5) (5, 7) (6, 2) (6, 3) (6, 5) (6, 7) (7, 2) (7, 3) (7, 5) (7, 7)}

A × C = {1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} × {2}
= {(1, 2) (2, 2) (3, 2) (4, 2) (5, 2) (6, 2) (7, 2)}

(A × B) – (A × C) = {(1, 3) (1, 5) (1, 7) (2, 3) (2, 5) (2, 7) (3, 3) (3, 5) (3, 7) (4, 3) (4, 5) (4, 7) (5, 3) 5, 5) (5, 7) (6, 3) (6, 5) (6, 7) (7, 3) (7, 5) (7, 7)} ….(2)

Question 30.
If f(x) = x – 4, g(x) = x2 and h(x) = 3x – 5 prove that fo(goh) = (fog)oh
Answer:
f(x) = x – 4; g(x) = x2; h(x) = 3x – 5
fog (x) = f[g(x)]
= f(x2)
= x2 – 4
(fog) oh(x) = fog[h(x)]
= fog (3x – 5)
= (3x – 5)2 – 4
= 9x2 – 30x + 25 – 4
= 9x2 – 30x + 21 …. (1)
goh(x) = g[h(x)]
= g(3x – 5)
= (3x – 5)2
= 9x2 + 25 – 30x
fo(goh) x = f[goh(x)]
= f [9x2 – 30x + 25]
= 9x2 – 30x + 25 – 4
= 9x2 – 30x + 21 ….(2)
Fróm (1) and (2) we get (fog)oh = fo(goh)

Question 31.
In an A.P., sum of four consecutive terms is 28 and their sum of their squares is 276. Find the four numbers.
Answer:
Let us take the four terms in the form (a – 3d), (a – d), (a + d) and (a + 3d).
Since sum of the four terms is 28,
a – 3d + a – d + a + d + a + 3d = 2%
4a = 28 gives a = 7
Similarly, since sum of their squares is 276,
(a – 3d)2 + (a – d)2 + (a + d)2+ (a + 3d)2 = 276.
a2 – 6ad + 9d2 + a2 – 2ad + d2 + a2 + 2ad + d2 + a2 + 6ad + 9d2 = 276
4a2 + 20d2 = 276 ⇒ 4(7)2 + 20d2 = 276.
d2 = 4 gives d = ± 2
If d = 2 then the four numbers are 7 – 3(2), 7 – 2, 7 + 2, 7 + 3(2)
That is the four numbers are 1, 5, 9 and 13.
If a = 7, d = -2 then the four numbers are 13, 9, 5 and 1
Therefore, the four consecutive terms of the A.P. are 1, 5, 9 and 13.

Question 32.
If a, b, c are three consecutive terms of an A.P. and x, y, z are three consecutive terms of a G.P. then prove that xb – c × yc – a × z a – b = 1.
Answer:
a, b, c are three consecutive terms of an A.P
∴ a = a, b = a + d and c = a + 2d respectively ……. (1)
x, y, z are three consecutive terms of a G.P
∴ x = x, y = xr, z = xr2 respectively ….(2)
L.H.S = xb – c × yc – a × z a – b

Find the value of k, if the area of a quadrilateral is 28 sq. units, whose vertices are (-4, -2), (-3, k), (3,-2) and (2,3)
Answer:
Let the vertices A (-4, -2), B (-3, k), C (3, -2) and D (2, 3)
Area of the Quadrilateral = 28 sq. units
\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) [(x1y2 + x2y3 + x3y4 + x4y1) – (x2y1 + x3y2 + x4y3 + x1y4)] = 28
Tamil Nadu 10th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium - 16
\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) [(-4k + 6 + 9 – 4)-(6 + 3k – 4 – 12)] = 28

A bird is sitting on the top of a 80 m high tree. From a point on the ground, the angle of elevation of the bird is 45° . The bird flies away horizontally in such away that it remained at a constant height from the ground. After 2 seconds, the angle of elevation of the bird from the same point is 30° . Determine the speed at which the bird flies. (√3 = 1.732)
Answer:
A is the initial position of the bird
B is the final position of the bird
Let the speed of the bird be “s”
Distance = speed × time
Tamil Nadu 10th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium - 17
∴ AB = 2 s
Let CD be x
∴ CE = x + 2s
In the ∆ CDA, tan 45° = \(\frac{A D}{C D}\)
1 = \(\frac{80}{x}\)
x = 80 …(1)
In the ∆ BCE
tan 30° = \(\frac{\mathrm{BE}}{\mathrm{CE}}\)
\(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{80}{x+2 s}\)
x + 2 s = 80 √3
x = 80 √3 – 2 s …(2)
From (1) and (2) we get
80 √3 – 2 s = 80
80 √3 – 80 = 2s ⇒ 80(√3 – 1) = 2 s
s = \(\frac{80(\sqrt{3}-1)}{2}\) = 40 (1.732 – 1) = 40 × 0. 732 = 29. 28
Speed of the flying bird = 29. 28 m / sec

Question 39.
The total marks scored by two students Sathya and Vidhya in 5 subjects are 460 and 480 with standard deviation 4.6 and 2.4 respectively. Who is more consistent in performance?
Answer:
Total marks scored by Sathya = 460
Total marks scored by Vidhya = 480
Number of subjects = 5
x̄ = 92%
Mean marks of Sathya = \(\frac{460}{5}\)
Given standard deviation, (σ) = 4.6
Coefficient of variation = \(\frac{\sigma}{\bar{x}} \times 100 \%\)
= \(\frac{4.6}{92} \times 100 \%\)
= \(\frac{460}{92}=5 \%\)
Mean marks of vidhya = \(\frac{480}{5}\)
Given standard deviation (σ) = 2.4
Coefficient of variation = \(\frac{2.4}{96} \times 100=\frac{240}{96}=2.5 \%\)
CV1 > CV2
Vidhya coefficient of variation is less than Sathya
∴ Vidhya is more consistent.

The perimeters of the ends of frustum of a cone are 207.24 cm and 169.56 cm. If the height of the frustum be 8 cm, find the whole surface area of the frustum. [Use π = 3.14]
Answer:
Tamil Nadu 10th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium - 18
Let the radii of circular ends be R and r [R > r]
Perimeter of circular ends are 207.24 cm and 169.56 cm
∴ 2πR = 207.24 cm
⇒ R = \(\frac{207.24}{2 \pi}=\frac{207.24}{2 \times 3.14}=33\)
⇒ R = 33m and 2 πr = 169.56
⇒ r = \(\frac{169.56}{2 \pi}=\frac{169.56}{2 \times 3.14}=27\)
Slant-height of the frustum
l = \(\sqrt{h^{2}+(\mathrm{R}-r)^{2}}\)
\(=\sqrt{8^{2}+(33-27)^{2}}\)
\(=\sqrt{64+36}\) = 10 cm
The whole surface area of the frustum = π [(R2 + r22) + (R + r) l]
∴ Required whole surface area of the frustum
= 3.14 [332 + 272 + (33 + 27) × 10] cm2
= 3.14 [1089 + 729 + 600] cm2
= 3.14 [2418] cm2
= 7592.52 cm2

Answer:
n(S) =54
Let the number of blue marble, be ‘x’
Let A be the event of getting blue marbles
n(A) = x
P(A) = \(\frac{n(\mathrm{A})}{n(\mathrm{S})}\)
\(\frac{1}{3}=\frac{x}{54}\)
3x = 54
x = \(\frac{54}{3}\) = 18
Number of blue marble is 18. Let the number of green marble be “y”. Let B be the event of getting green marbles.
Tamil Nadu 10th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium - 19
P(B) = \(\frac{n(\mathrm{B})}{n(\mathrm{S})}\)
\(\frac{4}{9}=\frac{y}{54}\)
9y = 54 × 4
y = \(\frac{54 \times 4}{9}\) = 24
Blue marbles + green marbles + white marbles = 54
18 + 24 + white marbles = 54
∴ Number of white marbles = 54 – 42 = 12
The jar contain 12 white marbles.

Question 42.
One – fourth of a herd of camels was seen in the forest. Twice the square root of the herd had gone to mountain and the remaining 15 camels were seen on the bank of a river. Find the total number of camels.
Answer:
Le the total number of camels be ‘x’
Number of camels seen in the forest = \(\frac { x }{ 4 }\)
Number of camels gone to the mountain = 2√x
Number of camels on the bank of river = 15
Total number of camels = \(\frac { x }{ 4 }\) + 2√x + 15
x = \(\frac { x }{ 4 }\) + 2√x + 15
4x = x + 8√x + 60 (muliply by 4)
3x – 8√x – 60 = 0
Let x = a2
3a2 – 8√a2 – 60 = 0
3a2 – 8a – 6 = 0
3a (a – 6) + 10(a – 6) = 0
(3a + 10) (a – 6) = 0
3a + 10 = 0 or a – 6 = 0
a = \(\frac{-10}{3}\) or a = 6
x = \(\left(\frac{-10}{3}\right)^{2}\) or 62(x = a2)
x = \(\frac{100}{9}\) (or) 36
Number of camels can-not be a fraction
∴ Number of camels = 36

Question 23.
Describe the rocket propulsion.
Answer:

  • Propulsion of rockets is based on the law of conservation of linear momentum as well as Newton’s III law of motion.
  • Rockets are filled with a fuel (either liquid or solid) in the propellant tank. When the rocket is fired, this fuel is burnt and a hot gas is ejected with a high speed from the nozzle of the rocket, producing a huge momentum.
  • To balance this momentum, an equal and opposite reaction force is produced in the combustion chamber, which makes the rocket project forward.
  • While in motion, the mass of the rocket gradually decreases, until the fuel is completely burnt out.
  • Since, there is no net external force acting on it, the linear momentum of the system is conserved.
  • The mass of the rocket decreases with altitude, which results in the gradual increase in velocity of the rocket.
  • At one stage, it reaches a velocity, which is sufficient to just escape from the gravitational pull of the Earth. This velocity is called escape velocity.

Question 24.
Explain the types of Scattering.
Answer:
Types of Scattering.
When a beam of light, interacts with a constituent particle of the medium, it undergoes many kinds of scattering.
Based on initial and final energy of the light beam, scattering can be classified as,

  1. Elastic scattering
  2. Inelastic scattering

1. Elastic scattering:
If the energy of the incident beam of light and the scattered beam of light are same, then it is called as ‘elastic scattering’.

2. Inelastic scattering:
If the energy of the incident beam of light and the scattered beam of light are not same, then it is called as ‘inelastic scattering’.
The nature and size of the scattered results in different types of scattering. They are

  • Raylight scattering
  • Mie scattering
  • Tyndall scattering
  • Raman scattering

  • Thus, the earth wire serves as a protective conductor, which saves us from electric shocks.

Question 26.
Explain the mechanism of cleansing action of soap.
Answer:
A soap molecule contains two chemically distinct parts that interact differently with water. It has one polar end, which is a short head with a carboxylate group (-COONa) and one nonpolar end having the long tail made of the hydrocarbon chain.

The polar end is hydrophilic (Water loving) in nature and this end is attracted towards water. The non-polar end is hydrophobic (Water hating) in nature and it is attracted towards dirt or oil on the cloth, but not attracted towards water. Thus, the hydrophobic part of the soap molecule traps the dirt and the hydrophilic part makes the entire molecule soluble in water.

When a soap or detergent is dissolved in water, the molecules join together as clusters called ‘micelles’. Their long hydrocarbon chains attach themselves to the oil and dirt. The dirt is thus surrounded by the non-polar end of the soap molecules. The charged carboxylate end of the soap molecules makes the micelles soluble in water. Thus, the dirt is washed away with the soap.

(ii) Explain the construction and working of a ‘compound microscope’.
Answer:
Construction
A compound microscope consists of two convex lenses. The lens with the shorter focal length is placed near the object, and is called as ‘objective lens’ or ‘objective piece’. The lens with larger focal length and larger aperture placed near the observer’s eye is called as ‘eye lens’ or ‘eye piece’. Both the lenses are fixed in a narrow tube with adjustable provision.

(b) (i) In what way hygroscopic substances differ from deliquescent substances.
Answer:
Difference between hygroscopic and deliquescent substances is in the extent to which each material can absorb moisture. This is because both of these terms are very much related to each other and they refer to the property of observing and the retention of moisture from the air. However, they differ in the extent of absorption of moisture where hygroscopic materials absorb moisture but not the extent the original substance dissolves in it, which is the casewith deliquescence. Therefore deliquescence can be regarded as an extreme condition of hygroscopic activity.

Hygroscopic substances Deliquescence substance
1. When exposed to the atmosphere at ordinary temperature, they absorb moisture and do not dissolve. 1. When exposed to the atmospheric air at ordinary temperature, they absorb moisture and dissolve.
2. Hygroscopic substances do not change its physical state on exposure to air. 2. Deliquescent substances change its physical state on exposure to air.
