1.How can you change a saturated solution to an unsaturated solution without adding any
more solvent to it.
6.Explain why particles of a colloidal solution do not settle down when left undisturbed, while
in the case of a suspension they do. [NCERT Exemplar]
● Aerosol,
● Emulsion.
8. Smoke and fog both are aerosols. In what way are they different? [NCERT Exemplar]
9.Classify the following as physical or chemical properties:
(a) The composition of a sample of steel is 98% iron, 1.5% carbon and 0.5% other elements.
(b) Zinc dissolves in hydrochloric acid with the evolution of hydrogen gas.
(c) Metallic sodium is soft enough to be cut with a knife.
(d) Most metal oxides form alkalis on interacting with water. [NCERT Exemplar]
13. Identify the dispersed phase and dispersing medium in the following colloids.
(a) Fog
(b) Cheese
(c) Coloured gemstone
14.What would you observe when
(a) a saturated solution of potassium chloride prepared at 60°C is allowed to cool at room
temperature?
(b) an aqueous sugar solution is heated to dryness?
(c) a mixture of iron filings and sulphur powder is heated strongly? [NCERT Exemplar]
16.Non-metals are usually poor conductors of heat and electricity. They are non-lustrous,
non-sonorous, non-malleable and are coloured.
(a) Name a lustrous non-metal.
(b) Name a non-metal which exists as a liquid at room temperature.
(c) The allotropic form of a non-metal is a good conductor of electricity. Name the allotrope.
(d) Name a non-metal which is known to form the largest number of compounds.
(e) Name a non-metal other than carbon which shows allotropy.
(f) Name a non-metal which is required for combustion. [NCERT Exemplar]
17. Classify the following into metals, non-metals, metalloids and inert-
(i) Germanium
(ii) Boron
(iii) Diamond
(iv) Iodine
(v) Copper
(vi) Helium.
18.Differentiate between i) a true solution and a colloid ii) physical change and chemical
change iii)Metals and non metals iv) compounds and mixtures.
19. A group of students took an old shoe box and covered it with a black paper from all
sides. They fixed a source of light (a torch) at one end of the box by making a hole in it and
made another hole on the other side to view the light. They placed a milk sample contained
in a beaker/tumbler in the box as shown in the figure. They were amazed to see that milk
taken in the tumbler was illuminated. They tried the same activity by taking a salt solution
but found that light simply passed through it.
(a) Explain why the milk sample was illuminated. Name the phenomenon involved.
(b) Same results were not observed with a salt solution. Explain.
(c) Can you suggest two more solutions which would show the same effect as shown by the
milk solution? [NCERT Exemplar]
20.Iron filings and sulphur were mixed together and divided into two parts ‘A’ and ‘S’. Part ‘A’
was heated strongly while Part ‘S’ was not heated. Dilute hydrochloric acid was added to
both the parts and evolution of gas was seen in both the cases. How will you identify the
gases evolved?

21. 0.5 g of salt is dissolved in 25 g of water. Calculate the percentage amount of the salt in
the solution.
22.
A solution of urea in water contains 16 grams of it in 120 grams of solution. Find out the
mass percentage of the solution.
23. Calculate the mass of sodium sulphate required to prepare its 20% (mass per cent)
solution in 100 g of water. [NCERT Exemplar]
