These bubbles are formed due to the evolution of carbon dioxide gas. This is a chemical change. In this change, citric acid contained in lemon juice reacts with sodium hydrogen carbonate which results in the evolution of carbon dioxide gas. The reaction can be represented as follows:<br \/>\nLemon juice + Baking soda \u2192 Carbon dioxide + Other substances<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/NCERT-Solutions-Guru.png?resize=170%2C17&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes\" width=\"170\" height=\"17\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 5.<br \/>\nWhen a candle burns, both physical and chemical changes take place. Identify these changes. Give another example of a familiar process in which both the chemical and physical changes take place.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nWhen a candle bums, both physical and chemical changes occur:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Physical changes: On heating, melting candle is a physical change since it again turns into solid wax on cooling.<\/li>\n<li>Chemical changes: The wax vapours bum to give new substances like carbon dioxide, carbon soot, water vapour, heat and light. This is a chemical change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>LPG is another example in which the physical change occurs when LPG comes out of the cylinder and is converted from liquid to gaseous state and the chemical change occurs when gas burns in air.<\/p>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\nHow would you show that setting of curd is a chemical change?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe curd is formed from milk. Both the curd and the milk have different properties. Also, once the curd is formed, it cannot be reversed back into milk. So, there is a formation of new substance with different properties and also it is an irreversible process. Hence, setting of curd is a chemical change.<\/p>\n<p>Question 7.<br \/>\nExplain why burning of wood and cutting it into small pieces are considered as two different types of changes.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nBurning of wood is a chemical change because in burning, new substances are formed and heat and light are produced. Wood + Oxygen \u2192 Carbon dioxide + Charcoal + Heat + Light<br \/>\nBut cutting it into small pieces is a physical change because no new substance is formed in this. We can only reduce the size of wood by cutting which is a physical property.<\/p>\n<p>Question 8.<br \/>\nDescribe how crystals of copper sulphate are prepared.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nCrystals of copper sulphate are prepared by the method of crystallisation. A cup of water is taken in a beaker. Few drops of dilute sulphuric acid are added to this. The water is then heated and when it starts boiling, copper sulphate powder is added. Copper sulphate powder should be added on till the solution becomes saturated, i.e., no more powder can be dissolved. It is then filtered into a china dish and allowed to cool. The solution should be kept undisturbed. Slowly, the crystals of copper sulphate separate out.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24299\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-1.png?resize=325%2C241&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes 1\" width=\"325\" height=\"241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-1.png?w=325&amp;ssl=1 325w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-1.png?resize=300%2C222&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 325px) 100vw, 325px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 9.<br \/>\nExplain how painting of an iron gate prevents it from rusting?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nPainting of an iron gate prevents it from rusting because it cuts the direct contact of iron from the air and therefore there is no further exposure of iron to oxygen and moisture in the air which can cause rusting. Hence, rusting is prevented.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/NCERT-Solutions-Guru.png?resize=170%2C17&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes\" width=\"170\" height=\"17\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 10.<br \/>\nExplain why rusting of iron objects is faster in coastal areas than in deserts.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nBoth the air and the moisture are required for rusting to take place. In coastal areas, the quantity of moisture present in the air is more than in deserts. In desert areas, the amount of moisture in the air is very low. Therefore, rusting of iron objects is faster in coastal areas than in deserts.<\/p>\n<p>Question 11.<br \/>\nThe gas we use in the kitchen is called liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). In the cylinder it exists as a liquid. When it comes out from the cylinder it becomes a gas (Change-A) then it burns (Change-B). The following statements pertain to these changes.

Both processes A and B are chemical changes.<br \/>\nd. None of these processes is a chemical change.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nc. Both processes A and B are chemical changes.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">NCERT Extended Learning Activities and Projects<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nDescribe two changes that are harmful. Explain why you consider them harmful. How can you prevent them?<br \/>\nHint:<br \/>\nTwo changes which are harmful are:<br \/>\na. Rusting of iron: When iron is left exposed to air it reacts with oxygen and water in the air to form a powdery substance called rust.<br \/>\nRusting of iron is harmful as rust slowly eats away the iron leading to its considerable loss. Rusting can be prevented by oiling, polishing and painting.<\/p>\n<p>b. Spoilage of food grains: Food grains get spoiled over a period of time. This causes a loss to us. It can prevented in the following ways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Drying food grains before storage.<\/li>\n<li>Keeping the food grains in safe, cool and dry place.<\/li>\n<li>Spraying insecticides in godowns.<\/li>\n<li>Cleaning and packaging of food grains before storage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 2.<br \/>\nTake three glass bottles with wide mouths. Label them A, B, C. Fill about half of bottle A with ordinary tap water. Fill bottle B with water which has been boiled for several minutes, to the same level as in A. In bottle C, take the same boiled water and of the same amount as in other bottles. In each bottle put a few similar iron nails so that they are completely underwater. Add a teaspoonful of cooking oil to the water in bottle C so that it forms a film on its surface. Put the bottles away for a few days. Take out nails from each bottle and observe them. Explain your observations.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24300\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-2.png?resize=411%2C176&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes 2\" width=\"411\" height=\"176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-2.png?w=411&amp;ssl=1 411w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-2.png?resize=300%2C128&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 411px) 100vw, 411px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/>\nHint:<br \/>\nIn test tube B: Formation of rust will take place since air from the atmosphere will dissolve in boiled water as it is uncovered.<br \/>\nIn test tube C: No rust formation will occur since only water is present. No air is present in it as oil cuts off supply of air.<br \/>\nBy the above observations we conclude that both air and water are essential for rusting.

For this, take a beaker half filled with water on a stand and heat it till it starts boiling. Add alum slowly to this solution. Keep on adding alum until no more alum can be dissolved. Filter the warm solution into another beaker. Now keep the filtered solution in a water bath containing ice. Do not disturb the solution. Large crystals of solid alum will be formed at the base of beaker when solution cools down.<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nCollect information about the type of fuels used for cooking in your area. Discuss with your teacher\/parents\/ others which fuels are less polluting and why.<br \/>\nHint:<br \/>\nThe following types of fuels are used in our area:<br \/>\na. Solid fuels: coal, dung cake, wood, etc.<br \/>\nb. Liquid fuel: Kerosene oil.<br \/>\nc. Gaseous fuel: LPG. LPG is a less polluting fuel.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Activity 1<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Objective: To study the change in state of ice.<br \/>\nMaterials Required: A piece of ice, glass\/ plastic tumbler.<br \/>\nProcedure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Take some ice in a glass or plastic tumbler.<\/li>\n<li>Melt some portion of ice by placing the tumbler in the sun.<\/li>\n<li>Now we have a mixture of ice and water.<\/li>\n<li>Now place the tumbler in a freezing mixture.<\/li>\n<li>The mixture becomes solid ice once again.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Observations: On heating the ice, it is converted into water and on freezing, it again changes into ice.<br \/>\nConclusion: In this activity, solid changes into liquid and liquid changes back into solid.

On cooling down, the steam it converted into water again.<br \/>\nConclusion: In this activity, there is no change in the properties of water. No new substance is formed. So, the boiling of water to form steam is a physical change.<\/p>\n<p>Chemical Properties: The internal properties of a substance which are not directly observable from outside are known as its chemical properties. For example, curd is a product of milk but the internal properties of milk and curd are completely different.<\/p>\n<p>Chemical Change: These changes are the changes in which the composition and chemical properties of a substance get changed. In chemical changes, new substances are produced. These changes are permanent and irreversible. For example, burning of a candle, formation of curd from milk, ripening of fruits, rusting of iron and silver jewellery getting tarnished or copper articles getting covered by green layer are all chemical changes.<\/p>\n<p>Characteristics of Chemical Change:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A chemical change is a permanent change. It usually cannot be reversed by simple physical processes.<\/li>\n<li>A lot of energy in the form of heat, light, etc., is either absorbed or given out in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<li>A permanent change in colour may take place in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<li>A change in smell or odour may take place or a new smell may be given off in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<li>A gas may evolve in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<li>A sound may also be produced in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Some examples of chemical changes are:<br \/>\ni. Burning: Burning of any substance such as coal, wood, etc., is always a chemical change and is accompanied by production of heat. When magnesium ribbon is burnt in air, it produces a dazzling white flame leaving behind ashes of magnesium oxide. When these ashes are dissolved in water, magnesium hydroxide (a base) is produced. Both these are chemical changes and can be represented as follows:<br \/>\nMagnesium (Mg) + Oxygen (O<sub>2<\/sub>) \u2192 Magnesium oxide (MgO)<br \/>\nMagnesium oxide (MgO) + Water (H<sub>2<\/sub>O) \u2192 Magnesium hydroxide [Mg(OH)<sub>2<\/sub>]<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/NCERT-Solutions-Guru.png?resize=170%2C17&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes\" width=\"170\" height=\"17\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Activity 3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Objective: To study burning of magnesium ribbon in air.<br \/>\nMaterials Required: A magnesium ribbon, sand paper and candle.<br \/>\nProcedure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Get a small piece of a thin strip or ribbon of magnesium.<\/li>\n<li>Clean its tip with sandpaper.<\/li>\n<li>Bring the tip near a candle flame.<\/li>\n<li>Hold it for some time and observe.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24302\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-4.png?resize=178%2C245&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes 4\" width=\"178\" height=\"245\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/>\nObservations: It bums with a brilliant white light. When it is completely burnt, it leaves behind a powdery ash. It is called magnesium oxide.<br \/>\nConclusion: Heat and light are given out in this process. It is not possible to recover magnesium ribbon in the original form from the white powdery ash. Therefore, burning of magnesium ribbon is a chemical change.<\/p>\n<p>ii. Reaction of copper sulphate with iron is also a chemical change which represents a change is colour by formation of a new substance.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Activity 4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Objective: To study the reaction between copper sulphate solution and iron (iron nail\/ shaving blade).<br \/>\nMaterials Required: Test tube, copper sulphate, two glass beakers and an iron nail or a shaving blade.<br \/>\nProcedure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dissolve about a teaspoonful of copper sulphate (blue vitriol or neela thotha) in about half a cup of water in a glass tumbler or a beaker.<\/li>\n<li>Add a few drops of dilute sulphuric acid to the solution.

The changes that you noticed are due to a reaction between copper sulphate and iron. The change in colour of the solution from blue to green is due to the formation of iron sulphate, a new substance. The brown deposit on the iron nail is copper, another new substance. Conclusion: It can be said that iron reacts with copper sulphate to form iron sulphate and copper. The equation can be written as:<br \/>\nCopper sulphate solution (blue) + Iron \u2192 Iron sulphate solution (green) + Copper (brown deposit)<\/p>\n<p>iii. Reaction between vinegar and baking soda is also a chemical change. Vinegar reacts with baking soda to produce carbon dioxide gas which turns lime water milky. The reaction can be represented as:<br \/>\nCarbon dioxide (CO<sub>2<\/sub>) + Lime water [Ca(OH)<sub>2<\/sub>] \u2192 Calcium carbonate [CaCO<sub>3<\/sub>] (milky) + Water (H<sub>2<\/sub>O)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/NCERT-Solutions-Guru.png?resize=170%2C17&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes\" width=\"170\" height=\"17\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Activity 5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Objective: To study the reaction between vinegar and baking soda.<br \/>\nMaterials Required: Vinegar, baking soda, lime water, test tubes, rubber cork and delivery tube.<br \/>\nProcedure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fit one end of the delivery tube into a one-holed cork.<\/li>\n<li>Fill one test tube with vinegar and add a pinch of baking soda to it.<\/li>\n<li>Close the mouth of this tube with cork fitted with delivery tube.<\/li>\n<li>Immerse the other end of the delivery tube into lime water as shown below.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24304\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-6.png?resize=409%2C325&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes 6\" width=\"409\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-6.png?w=409&amp;ssl=1 409w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/NCERT-Solutions-for-Class-7-Science-Chapter-6-Physical-and-Chemical-Changes-6.png?resize=300%2C238&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 409px) 100vw, 409px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/>\nObservation: Bubbles of gas are seen in vinegar. This gas turns lime water milky white in colour.<br \/>\nConclusion: Carbon dioxide is released in the above reaction which turns lime water milky. It is a chemical change. The equation can be represented as:<br \/>\nBaking soda (NaHCO<sub>3<\/sub>) + Vinegar (CH<sub>3<\/sub>COOH) \u2192 Sodium acetate (CH<sub>3<\/sub>COONa) + CO<sub>2<\/sub> + H<sub>2<\/sub>O<\/p>\n<p>Rusting of Iron: Iron reacts with oxygen and moisture present in the atmosphere to form a brown, flaky substance called rust. Rusting of iron is an undesirable change because the layer of rust formed falls off, exposing the metal to further rusting leading to corrosion of iron. As a result, iron objects become weak with passage of time. The process of rusting can be represented by the following equation:<br \/>\nIron (Fe) + Oxygen (O<sub>2<\/sub>) + Water (H<sub>2<\/sub>O) \u2192 Iron oxide (Fe<sub>2<\/sub>O<sub>3<\/sub>.xH<sub>2<\/sub>O)<br \/>\nThe iron oxide is called rust. Rust of iron is chemically different from iron and hence rusting is a chemical change.<\/p>\n<p>Methods to Prevent Rusting: Whenever you get iron, water and oxygen together, you get rust. So the best way to prevent rusting is to keep them apart. There are different methods to prevent rusting:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Painting: Painting the iron surface will create a barrier between the iron and the atmosphere which will protect the iron from rusting.<\/li>\n<li>Oiling and Greasing: When the iron objects, such as machines, are coated with a thin layer of oil or grease, it prevents them to come in contact with moist air. Thus, rusting does not take place.<\/li>\n<li>Galvanisation: Galvanisation is a process in which the iron sheets are coated with a layer of zinc which prevents rusting. Zinc gets oxidised more readily than iron. So, the iron remains protected. It is done in ships and many other articles.<\/li>\n<li>Electroplating: Iron sheets can be electroplated with a metal which is more reactive than iron so that instead of iron getting oxidised, the other metal gets oxidised (because it is more reactive).<\/li>\n<li>Alloying: Mixing of two or more metals or metals and non-metals is called alloying and the substance formed is called on alloy. It also prevents rusting. For example, stainless steel is on alloy of iron, carbon, chromium, nickel and manganese. It does not rust.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Crystallisation: Crystallisation is a technique used for the purification of substances. It is a separation technique to separate pure solids from a solution. Crystallisation is an example of a physical change. For example, common salt is obtained from seawater by evaporation and crystallisation. Similarly, when copper sulphate is dissolved in hot acidified water and then cooked, pure crystals of copper sulphate are obtained.<\/p>\n<h3>Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes Additional Important Questions and Answers<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Very Short Answer Type Questions<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nWhat are the two main kinds of changes?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nPhysical changes and chemical changes.<\/p>\n<p>Question 2.<br \/>\nWhich property of water changes during its evaporation?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nPhysical property, i.e., state changes.<\/p>\n<p>Question 3.<br \/>\nIs burning of a piece of paper a reversible or an irreversible change?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nIt is an irreversible change.<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nWhat is rust?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nIron reacts with oxygen and moisture present in the atmosphere to form a brown, flaky substance called rust.

The size or shape of matter may be changed, but no chemical reaction occurs. Physical changes are usually reversible. For example, melting of ice, formation of steam, etc., are physical changes.<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nWhat is a chemical change?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nA chemical change occurs when one substance is transformed into one or more new products via a chemical reaction. Most chemical changes are not reversible. They involve evolution of heat, light, sound or gas. For example, burning of paper, formation of curd, etc., are all chemical changes.<\/p>\n<p>Question 5.<br \/>\nWrite the characteristics of a physical change?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe characteristics of a physical change are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No new substance is formed in a physical change<\/li>\n<li>A physical change is a temporary change. It can be easily reversed.<\/li>\n<li>Very little energy (such as heat, etc.) is either absorbed or evolved in a physical change.<\/li>\n<li>A temporary change in colour may take place in a physical change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\nWhy is vapourisation of water a physical change? Explain.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nEvaporation is a physical change and not a chemical change. It is a physical change because it is going from the liquid phase to the gas phase, i.e., the physical property is being changed. It is not a chemical change because its molecules are still made of two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom. Hence, no new substance is formed.<\/p>\n<p>Question 7.<br \/>\nDoes the energy change take place both in physical and chemical changes?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nYes, all types of changes involve energy changes. During a change, energy is either evolved or absorbed. Burning of candle is a chemical change and energy is evolved in it. Evaporation of liquid is a physical change and energy is absorbed in it.<\/p>\n<p>Question 8.<br \/>\nWrite the characteristics of a chemical change?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nThe characteristics of a chemical change are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A chemical change is a permanent change. It usually cannot be reversed.<\/li>\n<li>A lot of energy in the form of heat, light, etc., is either absorbed or given out in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<li>A permanent change in colour may take palace in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<li>A change in smell may take place in a chemical change<\/li>\n<li>A new substance is always formed in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<li>Sound may be produced or a gas may evolve in a chemical change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mcq-questions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/NCERT-Solutions-Guru.png?resize=170%2C17&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Science Chapter 6 Physical and Chemical Changes\" width=\"170\" height=\"17\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Question 9.<br \/>\nWhat happens when iron nails are dipped in copper sulphate solution?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nWhen iron nails are dipped in copper sulphate solution, then after some time a brown layer of copper gets deposited on iron nails. This change is due to the chemical reaction between copper sulphate solution and iron. The colour of copper sulphate solution also changes from blue to green colour due to the formation of iron sulphate.<br \/>\nIron nail + Copper sulphate solution (Blue) \u2192 Iron sulphate (Green) + Copper (Brown deposit)<\/p>\n<p>Question 10.<br \/>\nOzone acts as a natural shield against ultraviolet radiations. Explain.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nOzone protects us from the harmful ultraviolet radiations which come from the sun. Ozone absorbs this radiation and breaks down to oxygen. If ultraviolet radiations were not absorbed by ozone, it would reach the earth\u2019s surface and cause harm to us and other life forms.<\/p>\n<p>Question 11.<br \/>\nIs burning always a desirable change? Explain.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nNo, it is not always a desirable change. It is desirable during cooking of food, burning of candle, burning of fossil fuels to drive engines and other machines. However, it is undesirable at other times as it causes a lot of damage, e.g., forest fire causes lot of damage to plants, animals and our ecosystem. Therefore, it is not always a desirable change.<\/p>\n<p>Question 12.<br \/>\nState the reason for each of the following:<br \/>\na. Cooked food is stored in a refrigerator.<br \/>\nb. Common salt is stored in an airtight container during the rainy season.<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\na. Low temperature in a refrigerator slows down the growth and multiplication of microorganisms. This prevents the cooked food from spoilage.<br \/>\nb. Common salt absorbs moisture and becomes wet during rainy season. Therefore, to keep common salt dry (free flowing), it is stored in an airtight container during the rainy season.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Long Answer Type Questions<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Question 1.<br \/>\nState four differences between physical and chemical changes.<br \/>\nAnswer:<\/p>\n<table border=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"140\">Physical change<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"140\">Chemical change<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"140\">1.

For example, if a metal is to be extracted from an ore, such as iron from iron ore, we need to carry out a series of chemical changes. A medicine is the end product of a chain of chemical reactions. Useful new materials, such as plastics and detergents, are produced by chemical reactions. Indeed, every new material is discovered by studying chemical changes.<\/p>\n<p>Question 4.<br \/>\nWhich gas is released when vinegar and baking soda are mixed? What happens when this gas is passed through lime water?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nWhen baking soda and vinegar are mixed with each other, carbon dioxide gas is released. When carbon dioxide is passed through lime water, calcium carbonate is formed. Calcium carbonate, makes lime water appear milky. The turning of lime water into milky solution is a standard test of carbon dioxide. The following reactions take place:<br \/>\na. Vinegar + Baking soda \u2192 Carbon dioxide + Other substance<br \/>\nb.

How do we prevent rusting?<br \/>\nAnswer:<br \/>\nIron reacts with oxygen and moisture present in the atmosphere to form a brown, flaky substance called rust. Rust of iron is undesirable because the layer of rust formed falls off, exposing the metal to further rusting. As a result, iron objects become weak with the passage of time.<br \/>\nIron (Fe) + oxygen (O<sub>2<\/sub>) + water (H<sub>2<\/sub>O) \u2192 Iron oxide (Fe<sub>2<\/sub>O<sub>3<\/sub>.xH<sub>2<\/sub>O)<br \/>\nThe iron oxide is rust.<\/p>\n<p>Methods to prevent rusting:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Putting oil or paint over the surface of iron articles.<\/li>\n<li>By the process of galvanisation.<\/li>\n<li>By electroplating.<\/li>\n<li>By using anti-rust solution.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Question 6.<br \/>\nIdentify the type of change and state whether energy is absorbed or evolved in each one of the following events: Burning of a candle, lighting of a bulb, preparation of food by green plants, volcanic eruption, lightning.<br \/>\nAnswer:<\/p>\n<table border=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"32\">S.
