Detailed Solution for Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 6

In chemical changes, molecules of substance rearrange to form a new substance with different property.

Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 7

Which of the following is an example of physical change?

Detailed Solution for Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 7

Boiling of water is a physical change:
Boiling of water produce water vapors. Chemically the water and water vapors composed of H2O molecules. Here the change in physical state occurred. During this conversion The liquid is changed in to gas. On cooling these water vapors condensed into water. Hence it is a reversible reaction.

Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 8

Sea water is a

Detailed Solution for Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 8

Sea water is a mixture because sea water contain a number of salts dissolved in it.

Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 9

Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 11

The reaction of H2 gas with oxygen gas to form water is an example of

Detailed Solution for Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 11

The electrons are transferred from Hydrogen to Oxygen , hence Oxygen is reduced and electrons are accepted by Oxygen from Hydrogen , hence Hydrogen is oxidised . Now , both oxidation and reduction are going together , therefore it is  a Redox (Reduction- Oxidation reaction) reaction 

Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 12

The process of obtaining salt by the evaporation of sea water is called

Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 13

Brown color of the apple after cutting is 

Detailed Solution for Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 13

When an apple is cut (or bruised), oxygen is introduced into the injured plant tissue. The oxygen  present in cells, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) enzymes in the chloroplasts rapidly oxidize phenolic compounds naturally present in the apple tissues to o-quinones, colorless precursors to brown-colored secondary products. So it's a chemical change.

Test: Physical & Chemical Changes - Question 14
