Question
Write short notes: Mendeleev’s periodic law.
✓
Answer
when the elements are arranged in the order of their increasing atomic masses, Mendeleev found that the elements with similar physical and chemical properties repeat after a definite interval. On the basis of these finding Mendeleev stated the periodic law. The physical and chemical properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic masses.

When a mixture of gases $X$ and $Y$ is compressed to $300$atm pressure and then passed over a catalyst consisting of a mixture of zinc oxide and chromium oxide $($heated to a temperature of $300^\circ C),$ then an organic compounds $Z$ having the molecular formula $CH_4O$ is formed. $X$ is a highly poisonous gas which is formed in appreciable amounts when a fuel burns in a limited supply of air; $Y$ is a gas which can be made by the action of a dilute acid on an active metal; and $Z$ is a liquid organic compound which can react with sodium metal to produce hydrogen gas:

→Take a coil AB having 10-15 turns. Connect the two ends of the coil to the galvanometer as shown in Figure. Take a strong bar magnet. (1) Move the north pole of the magnet towards the end B of the coil.
Observe the deflection of the pointer in the galvanometer. Note the direction of the deflection (i.e. right or left). (2) Now repeat this with the south pole of the magnet towards the end B of the coil. Again observe the deflection. Note its direction. (3) What will happen if instead of the magnet, the coil is moved? (4) If both the coil and the magnet are kept stationary, do you observe any deflection? (5) Compare the direction of the deflection when the north pole of the magnet is moved towards the end B of the coil with that when the end B of the coil is moved away from the north pole of the magnet. (6) What conclusions do you draw from the observations?

A, B and C are three living organisms. The organism A is a unicellullar fungus which can live without air. It is used in the commercial production of an organic compound P from molasses. The organism B is a unicellular animal which lives in water and feeds and moves by using pseudopodia. It breathes through an organelle Q. The organism C is a tiny animal which acts as a carrier of malarial parasite. It breathes and respires through a kind of tiny holes R and air - tubes S in its body.
