8.
A dilute ferrous sulphate solution was gradually added to the beaker containing acidified permanganate solution. The light purple colour of the solution fades and finally disappears. Which of the following is the correct explanation for the observation?
KMnO4 is an oxidising agent, it oxidises FeSO4
FeSO4 acts as an oxidising agent and oxidises KMnO4
The colour disappears due to dilution; no reaction is involved
KMnO4 is an unstable compound and decomposes in presence of FeSO4 to a colourless compound.

11.
Silver coin with atmospheric sulphur and green coating is of copper carbonate which is formed due to the reaction of copper with moist carbon dioxide from the air.
12.
Oxidation
13.
In a physical change, no new substance is formed. In a chemical change, new substance is formed.
14.
Law of conservation of mass.
Mass can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction.
15.
Physical change:
A temporary change, in which no new substance is formed and the chemical composition of the original substance remains the same, even though some of its physical properties like color, state, shape, size, etc. may change. For example, the melting of ice.
Melting of iron is a physical change because when the iron is heated it changes from one state to other but the chemical properties remain the same.
Chemical change:
A permanent change in which new substances are formed whose chemical and physical properties are completely different from that those of the original substance. For example, the burning of fuel.
During rusting of iron the new substance i.e rust (red-brown solid) is formed when iron comes in contact with air and water.
Thus rusting of iron is a chemical change.
16.
A process in which two or more substances react to form some other new substances with new set of properties is called a chemical reaction.
17.
Heat, light and electricity.
18.
Hydrogen gas is evolved.
19.
An example of photochemical reactions is the process of photosynthesis occurring in the leaves of green plants.
\(\underset { Carbon\\ dioxide }{ { 6CO }_{ 2 } } +\underset { Water}{ { 6H }_{ 2 } O} \overset { sunlight }{ \underset { Chlorophyll }{ \rightleftharpoons } } \underset {Glucose }{ C_6H_{12}O_6 } +\underset {Oxygen }{6{ O }_{ 2 }}\)
20.
A catalyst changes the rate of reaction without taking part in the reaction itself.
