Marble is a metamorphic rock composed mainly of  crystalline Calcium Carbonate or Calcium Magnesium Carbonate. The most common component of sand is Silicon dioxide in the form of quartz. The earth’s land masses are made up of rocks and minerals. Ruby masses are made up of rocks and minerals. Ruby is considered as one of the four precious stones together with Sapphire, Emerald and Diamond. In Chemistry, the gemstone is a mixture of Aluminum, Oxygen and Chromium.

Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. Carbon dioxide is present under pressure in soft drinks. Carbon dioxide adds that special sparkle and bite to the beverage and also acts as a mild preservative. Carbon dioxide is an uniquely suitable gas for soft drinks because it is inert, non-toxic, and relatively inexpensive and easy to liquefy.

Q12. The substance which does not expand on going from liquid state to solid state is

(c) Aluminium / एल्युमीनियम
(d) Type metal / टाइप मेटल
Show Answer
Ans.(d)
Sol. printing, type metal (sometimes called hot metal) refers to the metal alloys used in traditional type founding and hot metal typesetting. Lead is the main constituent of these alloys. Antimony and tin are added to make the character produced durable and tough while reducing the difference between the coefficients of expansion of the matrix and the alloy. Pure metal melts and solidifies in a simple manner at a specific temperature. This is not the case with alloys.

Q13. The radio-active element used in heart pacemakers is 
हार्ट पेसमेकर में इस्तेमाल किये जाने वाला रेडियो-सक्रिय तत्व -

(c) Plutonium / प्लूटोनियम
(d) Radium / रेडियम
Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. The actinides (or actinoids) are the chemical elements with atomic numbers between 90 and 109 inclusively. They occur between Groups 3 and 4 in Period 7 of the periodic table. All elements in this family are radioactive. Five actinides namely: thorium, protoactinium, uranium, neptunium, and plutonium have been found in nature. Plutonium is used in the manufacture of nuclear weapons and as the power source in nuclear power plants. On a smaller scale, it is also used as a power source in smaller devices such as the heart pacemaker. 

Q14. The element which is commonly used in nuclear for producing electricity by nuclear fission is 
परमाणु विखंडन द्वारा बिजली उत्पादन के लिए आमतौर पर उपयोग किया जाने वाला तत्व कौन सा है?
(a) Radium  / रेडियम
(b) Plutonium/ प्लूटोनियम
(c) Uranium / यूरेनियम
(d) Deuterium / ड्यूटेरियम
Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. Uranium is used to produce a chemical and nuclear reaction which makes a lot of heat. This heat is used to turn water into steam, which turns turbines…turbines generate electricity.

Q15. Table salt gets moist during rainy season because 
बरसात के मौसम में टेबल साल्ट नम क्यों हो जाता है? 
(a) sodium chloride is hygroscopic / सोडियम क्लोराइड हाइग्रस्कापिक है.
(b) sodium chloride is deliquescent / सोडियम क्लोराइड देलिक़ुएस्केन्त है.
(c) sodium chloride contains some quantity of sodium iodide /सोडियम क्लोराइड में कुछ मात्रा सोडियम आयोडाइड की होती है.
(d) sodium chloride contains hygroscopic impurities like magnesium chloride / सोडियम क्लोराइड में मैग्नीशियम क्लोराइड जैसे हाइग्रोस्कोपिक अशुद्धताएं होती हैं 
Show Answer
Ans.(d)
Sol. Table salt is refined salt, which contains about 97 to 99 percent sodium chloride. It usually contains substances that make it free-flowing (anticaking agents) such as sodium aluminosilicate or magnesium carbonate. Because of Hygroscopic nature of salt it become wet in rainy season as the salt absorbs moisture from environment.
