Short Answer Types Questions

Q.1. Try segregating the things around you as pure substances or mixtures.

You can do it by yourself like try mixing chalk powder and water then separate them.

Q.2. What is meant by a substance? 

Substance can be defined as that kind of matter where constituent particles cannot be separated from each other by any physical process since they are all similar in chemical properties.

Q.3. What type of mixtures are separated by the technique of crystallisation? 

From impure samples of solids, pure solid crystals can be obtained by the method of crystallization for eg to obtain pure sugar from impure sample of the same.

Q.4. What is tyndall effect? Which kinds of solution show it?

The scattering of a beam of light by particles of solution when light is passed through it is called tyndall effect. Those solutions where size of the particle is very small for e.g. colloidal solution shows tyndall effect.

Q.5. What is centrifugation? Where it is used?

Centrifugation is a technique used for separation of constituents of mixture and is based upon the principle that denser particles stay at bottom and lighter particles stays at the top when spun rapidly. It is used separate cream from milk.

Q.6. What is crystallization? Where is it used? Why is this better than simple evaporation technique?

Crystallization is a process that separates a pure solid in the form of crystals from its solution. It is used to purify solids. For e.g. salt from sea water is purified using crystallization.
It is a better technique than simple evaporation because:
(a) Some solid may decompose or get charred on heating to dryness during evaporation.
(b) On evaporation, some of the impurities still remain dissolved in the solution.

Q.7. What is a colloid? What are its various properties?

Colloids are the heterogeneous mixture of substances in which the particle size is too small and cannot be seen by naked eyes.
(a) It is a heterogeneous mixture, but appears homogenous.
(b) The size of particles is too small to be individually seen by naked eyes.
(c) They scatter beam of light passing through it and makes its path visible.
(d) The particles of colloid do not settle down when left undisturbed.

Q.8. Write a method to separate different gases from air.

Air is a homogeneous mixture of various gases. It can be separated from its various components by fractional distillation.
(a) First compress and cool the air by increasing the pressure and decreasing the temperature.
(b) We obtain the liquid air; now allow the liquid air to warm up slowly in fractional distillation column.
(c) The various gases separate from each other according to their boiling points at various heights of the fractionally column.

Q.9. Explain the following giving examples. 
(a) saturated solution 
(b) pure substance 
(c) colloid 
(d) suspension 

(a) saturated solution: It is a solution in which no more solute particles can be dissolved at a particular temperature.
(b) pure substance: Such substance that has a uniform composition i.e. has particles with identical properties is called pure substance eg sugar, salt, water, nitrogen etc.
(c) colloid: It is a kind of heterogeneous mixture/solution in which particle size is between 1nm and 1000nm. Colloids have dispersion medium and dispersed phase.eg smoke, milk, shaving cream, jelly, cheese etc.
(d) suspension: It is a kind of heterogeneous mixture in which insoluble solid particles remain suspended in the medium and dispersion particles are visible to the unaided eyes.eg muddy river water, chalk powder in water, dust storm, sand in water etc.

Q.10. Write the steps you would use for making tea. Use the words solution, solvent, solute, dissolve, soluble, insoluble, filtrate and residue.

Take more amount of solvent (water) in a pan and after heating it add little amount of solute (sugar) to the solvent. Solute will dissolve completely in the solvent forming true solution, then add tea leaves that are insoluble along with another soluble liquid milk. After boiling allow filtration with a sieve so the filtrate you obtain is tea while the residue has tea leaves that are thrown away.
