Question 14 Marks

There are different types of chemical reactions occurring around us or being carried out for the benefit of mandkind, e.g. combination reactions, decomposition reactions, displacement reactions, precipitation reactions, reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions, photochemical reactions etc.
Now, answer the following questions :
  1. Combustion of coke is a combination reaction. $CO _2$ is not a pollutant. Then, why is combustion of coke harmful?
  2. Which reaction followed by two combination reactions are involved in white wash of walls?
  3. Give one use of tin plating in daily life.
    or
    How photochemical reactions have played an important in photography?
Answer
1. $CO _2$ is not a pollutant when present in the atmosphere upto a certain percent. Rather, it helps to maintain the temperature of the Earth. Combustion of coke is harmful as it increases the concentration of $CO _2$ in the atmosphere which causes global warming (greenhouse effect).2. Reaction of calcium with oxygen gives quicklime $( CaO )$ which combines with water to form $CaCO _3$
3. Tiffin boxes made up of steel are either tin plated or nickel plated to protect them from rusting. However, tin-plating is preferred because tin is non-poisonous and hence, does not contaminate the food kept in them.
or

Question 24 Marks
When two or more substances react and form some new substance, it is called a chemical reaction. Chemical equation is represented in terms of symbols, molecular formulas, moles, states, etc. As we know, all chemical reaction obeys law of chemical combination. Therefore, chemical reactions need to be balanced. It is done by hit and trial method. The chemical reactions can be classified into different types such as combination reaction, decomposition reaction, displacement reaction, double displacement reaction. The reactions take place in solution is precipitation reactions and neutralisation reactions.

(i) Define a chemical equation.
(ii) Which law is followed by all chemical reactions?
(iii) Name four types of chemical reactions.
or
(iv) Give example of precipitation reactions.

Question 54 Marks
Read the following and answer any four questions from (i) to (v).ln decomposition reactions, a single reactant breaks down to form two or more products.

Question 64 Marks
Read the following and answer any four questions from (i) to (v).A reaction in which two or more reactants combine to form a single product is called a combination reaction. For example, calcium oxide reacts vigorously with water to form calcium hydroxide. The reaction is highly exothermic in nature, as lots of heat is produced during the reaction.
$\begin{matrix}\text{CaO}_{(\text{s})}&+&\text{H}_2\text{O}_{(\text{l})}&\xrightarrow{\ \ \ \ \ \ \ }&\text{Ca(OH)}_{2(\text{aq})}&+&\text{Heat}\\\text{Calcium oxide}&&\text{Water}&&\text{Calcium hydroxide}\end{matrix}$

Question 74 Marks
Read the following and answer any four questions from (i) to (v).Reactions, in which one element takes place of another element in a compound, are known as displacement reactions. ln general, more reactive elements displaces a less reactive element from its compound. ln all single displacement reactions, only one element displaces another element from its compound. The single displacement reactions are, however, written as just displacement reactions. The displacement reaction between iron (III) oxide and powdered aluminum produces so much heat that iron metal obtained is in molten form.
