  5. a - 4, b - 1, c - 2, d - 3


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

This is the correct matching. Iron is an element. Urea is a compound. Air is a mixture. Coloured gemstones are colloids.

Which of the following statements is/are correct?

a. The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute present per unit volume or per unit mass of the solution/solvent. b. The particles of a suspension are called the dispersed phase. c. On heating of two elements in a mixture strongly we get a compound, which has totally different properties as compared to the combining elements.

  1. Only a

  2. Only b

  3. Only c

  4. Only a and c

  5. All of these


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

This is the correct answer, as both the statements are correct.

Which of the following processes is used for the separation of insoluble solid particles from a solid-liquid mixture, if the solid particles are very small and pass through a filter paper?

  1. Chromatography

  2. Crystallisation

  3. Sublimation

  4. Centrifugation

  5. Distillation


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

If the solid particles are very small and pass through a filter paper, then centrifugation process is used for the separation of insoluble solid particles from a solid-liquid mixture. Example: Mixtures of solids and liquids, such as fat in the cream by the process of centrifugation.

Which of the following is not an application of centrifugation process of separation?

  1. Separation of cream from milk in dairies.

  2. Used in washing machines to squeeze out water from clothes.

  3. Used in laboratories to separate collodial particles from their solutions.

  4. Used in laboratories to separate a mixture of acetone and water.

  5. Used in diagnostic labs for blood and urine tests.


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

A mixture of acetone and water can be separated by the process of distillation.

Which of the following statements is/are correct?

a. Emulsion and gel are both collodial solutions. b. Ultracentrifugation is used to separate the particles of a collodial solution. c. Pigments of natural colours can be separated by chromatography.

  1. Only a

  2. Only b

  3. Only c

Which of the following is/are correct regarding the statement- 'air is a mixture and not a pure substance'?

a. The amounts of gases present in air at different places varies. b. The properties of air are the properties of its constituents. c. The different gases present in air can be separated by the process of fractional distillation of liquid air.

  1. Only a

  2. Only b

  3. Only c

  4. Only a and c

  5. All of these


Correct Option: E
Explanation:

This is the correct answer, as all these statements prove that air is a mixture. The amounts of gases present in air at different places varies, though only marginally. The properties of air are the properties of its constituents. Air supports combustion due to the presence of oxygen in it, it turns lime water milky due to the presence of carbon di oxide in it. The different gases present in air can be separated by the physical process of fractional distillation of liquid air.

A mixture of n-hexane and n-heptane can be separated through the process of _____________ method.

  1. chromatography

  2. distillation

  3. crystallisation

  4. fractional distillation

  5. centrifugation


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

In case the difference in the boiling points of the liquids is less than 25 kelvin temperature, we use the fractional distillation method. A mixture of n-hexane and n-heptane can be separated through the process of fractional distillation.

Which of the following is the criteria to use chromatography for separating components of a mixture?

  1. This method used to separate a mixture comprising of solutes that dissolve in the same solvent.

  2. This method is used for the separation of a mixture containing two miscible liquids that boil without decomposing and have a large difference between their boiling points.

  3. Two immiscible liquids are separated by this method.

  4. In case the difference in the boiling points of the liquids is less than 25 kelvin temperature, we use the chromatography method.

  5. This method is used as a separation and purification method that involves the precipitating of solid crystals from its saturated solution on cooling.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

This is the correct answer. Chromatography is a method used to separate a mixture comprising of solutes that dissolve in the same solvent. Chromatography is used for separating colours in a dye, pigments from natural colours and drugs from blood.
