Question 22 Marks
what are photochemical reactions? Support your answer by two examples.
Answer
a chemical reaction initiated by the absorption of energy in the form of light. The consequence of molecules’ absorbing light is the creation of transient excited states whose chemical and physical properties differ greatly from the original molecules.

Question 52 Marks
what do you understand by the term thermal dissociation? How thermal dissociation is different from thermal decomposition? Write two fully balanced equations for thermal dissociation reactions.
Answer
Thermal dissociation is conventionally understood to be a breakdown of chemical bonds in molecules resulting in production of smaller molecules or atoms under the influence of temperature.
Thermal decomposition is breaking a compound into two or more elements, or into two new compounds with the help of heat. These reactions are irreversible. Thermal dissociation is breaking a substance into two or simpler substances with the help of heating.

Question 62 Marks
What as a reversible reaction? What is the most important condition for the reversible reaction to take place? Support your answer by a fully balanced chemical equation.
Answer
A reversible reaction is a reaction in which the conversion of reactants to products and the conversion of products to reactants occur simultaneously
The conditions that a reversible process becomes irreversible are: (i) When there is an escape of the gas products through an open system. (ii) If we continuously remove the products formed in the reaction.

Question 72 Marks
What is the difference between precipitation reaction and neutralization reaction? To which kind of chemical reactions belong these reactions ? support your answer by one example each.
Answer
A reaction between an acid and base which results in the formation of salt and water is a neutralization reaction. A reaction where a semi-solid insoluble product is formed, which is called precipitate is a precipitation reaction.

Question 82 Marks
What is analysis? To which kind of chemical reactions belongs analysis? Support your answer by an example.
Answer
Decomposition reactions are also known as analysis reactions or chemical breakdowns. The opposite of this type of reaction is a synthesis in which simpler reactants combine to form a more complex product

Question 92 Marks
What is a synthesis? To which kind of chemical reactions belongs synthesis? Support your answer by an example.
Answer
A synthesis reaction is a type of reaction in which multiple reactants combine to form a single product. Synthesis reactions release energy in the form of heat and light, so they are exothermic. An example of a synthesis reaction is the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen

Question 102 Marks
What do you understand by the term? Give example:
Exothermic chemical change.
Answer
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which less energy is needed to break bonds in the reactants than is released when new bonds form in the products. During an exothermic reaction, energy is constantly given off, often in the form of heat. All combustion reactions are exothermic reactions

Question 112 Marks
What do you understand by the term? Give example:
Endothermic chemical change.
Answer
Endothermic reactions are chemical reactions in which the reactants absorb heat energy from the surroundings to form products. These reactions lower the temperature of their surrounding area, thereby creating a cooling effect.

Question 122 Marks
We mix iron filings with sulphur and grind it, and we heat the mixture, a chemical change takes place. Using the above example explain the chemical change.
Answer
When we mix iron fillings with sulphur then we can separate it manually because they both are in solid form but in the case of the latter reaction we heat the mixture and it reacts with the atmosphere and forms a compound which can’t be reversed into its previous state. thus latter one is a chemical change.

Question 132 Marks
A person eats a chocolate and then digests it. In doing so there takes place a chemical change. identify the change and give reason for your answer.
Answer
A person eats a chocolate and then digests it, so there takes a chemical change because in the stomach digestion is held, the stomach adds special chemicals to digest it which when done is in-reversible. So, it is a chemical change because chemical changes are ir-reversible.

Question 142 Marks
Define chemical change
Answer
A chemical change is a change of materials into another, new materials with different properties and one or more than one new substances are formed. It results when a substance combines with another to form a new substance (synthesis or either decomposes to form more substances)
