Best questions related to chemical reaction and equation for revision for class 10


 1. Why do we need to balance a chemical equation?

Answer:

We need to balance a chemical equation to satisfy the law of conservation of mass.

2. Name two salts that are used in black and white photography.

Answer:

Two salts that are used in black and white photography are:

(i) Silver chloride

(ii) Silver bromide

3. What is the product formed on adding quick lime to water?

Answer:

When quick lime (CaO) is added to water, the product formed is slaked lime Ca(OH)2 .

4. Write the chemical formula for marble.

Answer:

Chemical formula for marble is CaCO3.

5. Which type of reaction produces insoluble salts?

Answer:

Precipitation reaction produces insoluble salts.

6. A silver article turns black when kept in the open for a few days. Give reason for this change.

Answer:

Because H2S gas present in the air reacts with silver forming a coating of black silver sulphide (Ag2S).

7. Name the phenomenon involved in turning of silver into silver sulphide in the above question.

Answer. 

The phenomenon involved in turning of silver into silver sulphide is called corrosion.

8. How does food become rancid?

Answer:

Food becomes rancid when fat and oils present in the food are oxidised.

9. Why is respiration considered as an exothermic reaction?

Answer:

Because heat is evolved during respiration.

10. Which gas is filled in the chips packets to prevent rancidity and why?

Answer:

Nitrogen gas is filled in the chips packets.

Nitrogen being an inert gas prevents the oxidation of oils present in chips.

Notes of magnetic effect of electric current class 10

  Noteswala 2020 Magnetic effect of Electric current Any substance that attracts iron and iron like objects is defined as magnet. When a wire carries an electric current, it behaves as a magnet. Properties of Magnet Every magnet has north and south poles. Same poles repel each other and unlike poles attract each other. A freely suspended magnet will align itself in north south direction, north facing north of the magnet and south facing south of the magnet. Characteristics of Field Lines Field lines arise from north pole and end into south pole of the magnet. They are closed curves. Field lines never intersect each other. Direction of magnetic field lines inside the magnet is from south to north. Magnetic Field of a Bar Magnet Hold the thumb, forefinger and middle finger of right hand at right angles to each other. If the forefinger is in direction of magnetic field and the thumb points in the direction of motion of conductor, than the direction of induced current is indicated by middl

Noteswala 2020     Acid, Bases and Salts   The taste of the food is due to presence of acids and bases in them. Acids Acids is defined as the one which produces hydrogen ions in water.  For Example , Sulphuric Acid, Hydrochloric Acid etc. They give sour taste. Acids turn blue litmus to red. This is used as confirmation test for the presence of acid. When acids react with metals, gases are evolved. Reactions with Acids 1. Reaction of Acid with Metal Acid + Metal → Salt + Hydrogen gas Mg + H 2  SO 4  → H 2  + Mg SO 4 2. Reaction of Acid with Carbonates Na 2  CO 3  (s) + 2 HCl (aq) → 2NaCl (aq) + H 2 O(l) + CO 2 (g) 3. Reaction of Acid with Bicarbonates NaHCO 3  (s) + HCl (aq) → NaCl(aq) + H 2 O (l) + CO 2  (g) Similarity between Acids and Bases Both acids and base react with water. They produce ions in water Both acids and bases acts as electrolytes, so are good conductors of electricity. Both of them changes the colour of the litmus paper. Classification of Acids Acids are classified as
