III.Match the following

IV. Answer briefly.

1. State the law of conservation of mass.

The law states that during any chemical change, the total mass of the products is equal to the total mass of the reactants.

2. State the law of constant proportions.

the law of constant proportions that in a pure chemical compound the elements are always present in defnite proportions by mass.

3. Write the properties of anode rays.

• Anode rays travel in straight lines.
• Anode rays are made up of material particles.
• Anode rays are defected by electric and magnetic felds. Since, they are defected towards the negatively charged plate, they consist of positively charged particles.
• The properties of anode rays depend upon the nature of the gas taken inside in the discharge tube.

4. Define valency of an element with respect to hydrogen.

valency of an element can is defned as the number of hydrogen atoms which combine with one atom of it.

5. Define the term ions or radicals.

An atom or a group of atoms when they either lose or gain electrons, get converted into ions or radicals

6. What is a chemical equation?

A chemical equation is a short hand representation of a chemical reaction with the help of chemical symbols and formulae.

7. Write the names of the following compounds.

a) CO

• Carbon monoxide

b) N₂O

• Nitrous oxide

c) NO₂

• Nitrogen di oxide

d) PCl₅

V. Answer the following.

1. Find the valency of the element which is underlined in the following formula.

a) NaCl

• NaCl – 1

b) CO₂

• CO₂ – 4

c) Al (PO₄)

• Al (PO₄) – 3

d) Ba (NO₃)₂

• Ba (NO₃)₂ – 2

e) CaCl₂

• CaCl₂ – 2

2. Write the chemical formula for the following compounds

a) Aluminium sulphate

• Al₂ (SO₄)₃

b) Silver nitrate

• BaCl₂

c) Magnesium oxide

• AgNO₃

d) Magnesium + hydrogen → Magnesium + Hydrogen chloride chloride

Mg + 2HCl  →   MgCl₂ + H₂

4. Balance the following chemical equation.

a) Na + O₂ → Na₂O

• 4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O

b) Ca + N₂ → Ca₃N₂

• 3Ca + N₂ → Ca₃N₂

c) N₂ + H₂ →NH₃

• N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

d) CaCO₃ +HCl → CaCl₂ + CO₂ +H₂O

• CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + CO₂ +H₂O

e) Pb(NO₃)₂ → PbO + NO₂ + O₂

• 2Pb(NO₃)₂ → 2PbO + NO₂ + O₂
