Understanding Chemical Changes 

CHEMICAL REACTIONS AND EQUATIONS (Q & A) 

CBSE Class 10 - Chemistry

Q1: What is a chemical change?

Answer: A chemical change is one in which a new substance is formed which has properties totally different from the starting materials. The starting materials are called as reactants and the new substances formed are called as products. In such changes, the nature and identity of the products is completely changed.


Q2: Give three examples of chemical change?

CBSE Class 10 - Chemistry - Assertion Reason Based Questions (#classs10Chemistry)(#eduvictors)

CBSE Class 10 - Chemistry - Assertion Reason Based Questions

Assertion and Reasoning based questions are bit tricky. You should be able to distinguish whether the assertion is well connected to the reason or these are just random facts. Read both statements carefully, and check if both statements are factually or logically correct or not. If both are correct, then try to check if both are well connected to each other or not.

The questions below consist of statements of an Assertion and a Reason. Use the following key to choose appropriate answer:

(A) If both assertion and reason are CORRECT and reason is the CORRECT explanation of the assertion.
(B) If both assertion and reason are CORRECT, but reason is NOT THE CORRECT explanation of the assertion.
(C) If assertion is CORRECT, but reason is INCORRECT
(D) If assertion is INCORRECT, but reason is CORRECT



QUESTIONS:

1.  ASSERTION:  Combustion reactions are also called exothermic oxidation reactions.
     REASON:  In these reactions, oxygen is added and heat energy is released.

Class 10 - Chemistry - Chapter - Acids and Bases - Keys Points To Remember (#class10Chemistry)(#cbsenotes)(#eduvictors)

 Acids and Bases 

Class 10 - Chemistry 

(Important Points To Remember)

⑴ Acids are the substances which taste sour, change blue litmus red, are corrosive to metals and furnish H⁺ ions in their aqueous solutions.

⑵ Bases are the substances which taste bitter, change red litmus blue, feel slippery and furnish OH⁻ ions in their aqueous solutions.

⑶ Acid-base indicators are dyes or mixtures of dyes which are used to indicate the presence of acids and bases.

⑷ Indicators are the substances that show one colour in an acidic medium and another colour in a basic medium. Litmus, phenolphthalein and methyl orange are commonly used indicators. Onion, Vanilla extract and Clove oil are olfactory indicators.

Chemistry - Acids and Bases - Indicators

Questions and Answers

Q1: Why there is a need for indicators to test acids and bases?

Answer: It would be too dangerous to taste a liquid to find out if it was acidic or basic. Chemists use substances or dyes called indicators which change colour or odour when they are added to acids or bases.


Q2: What is an indicator? Give examples of indicators.

Answer:  An indicator is a dye or substance that changes colour or its smell when it is put into acid or a base. An indicator gives different colours in acid and base. Thus an indicator tells us if the given substance is an acid or base by changing its colour. The three common indicators are: Litmus, Methyl orange, phenolphthalein.


Q3: What are different types of indicators?

 Carbon and Its Compounds - Study Notes (PDF)

Chemistry is that branch of science which deals with the composition, structure and properties of matter. Organic chemistry is predominantly concerned with the reactions that organic molecules undergo. Hydrocarbons are compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms. Carboxylic acids contain both a carbonyl group (C=O) and a hydroxyl group (–OH) on a terminal carbon. Carboxylic acids, like aldehydes, are terminal functional groups.

1. Early chemists classified elements as metals and non-metals on the basis of a set of physical and chemical properties.

2. Dobereiner classified elements on the basis of “Law of Triads” which states that “atomic mass of the middle element of a triad is almost the arithmetic mean of the other two elements”.


3. A triad of elements is a group of three elements arranged in the order of increasing atomic masses, such that a group of such elements have similar physical and chemical properties.


4. Newland classified elements on the basis of “Law of Octaves” stated by him. According to
this law :
“When the elements are arranged in the order of increasing atomic mass, the properties of the eighth element (starting from a given element) are a repetition of the properties of the first element.”
