  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The density of coal is _______ when compared to coke.
    Solution

    Coal is a naturally available substance whereas Coke is prepared substance  with some  impurities and high Carbon content, usually made from Coal.While Coal is Solid mass in physical appearance, Coke is Porous ( it means that it has large surface area ).

    So the density of coal is more than the coke as coke is porous which has large surface area.

    Hence option A is correct.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    List IList II
    AKeroseneIMetalling of roads
    BDieselIIJet aircraft fuel
    CParaffin WaxIIIGeneration of electricty
    DBitumenIVLubricants
    Solution
    • Kerosene is used in jet aircraft as fuel.
    • Diesel is used in the generation of electricity.
    • Paraffin wax is used as a lubricant.
    • Bitumen is used for metalling of roads.

    Hence, option $$C$$ is correct.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    LPG is ___________.
    Solution

    LPG is short for liquefied petroleum gas. It is used as a fuel in industries and homes.
    Hence, option $$A$$ is correct.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Which amongst the following is not free state of carbon?
    Solution
    Diamond, graphite, and coke exist in the free state of carbon whereas petroleum is the mixture of hydrocarbons where carbon and hydrogen are present. So the substance which is not available in a free state is petrol.
    Hence, option D is correct.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Coke is used in the preparation of :
    Solution

    Coke is used in the preparation of water gas ($$CO+H_2$$), producer gas ($$CO+N_2$$) and graphite by artificial methods.

    $$C+H_2O\longrightarrow CO+H_2$$     ..... (water gas)

    $$C+air\longrightarrow CO+N_2$$.        ..... (producer gas)

    Hence, option $$D$$ is correct.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    __________ is widely used as fuel in factories and thermal power stations.
    Solution
    Coal is widely used as a fuel in coal-based industries due to its advantages as its high calorific value. It releases less amount of smoke after burning. So, coal is a widely used fuel in factories and thermal power stations.

    Hence, option C is correct.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Which of the following is an example of an inexhaustible resource?
    Solution
    Renewable resources are those which get renewed or replenished. Groundwater can be replenished when it rains and the rainwater percolates into the soil and collects underground. Crude oil and coal are non-renewable sources.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Coal and petroleum are called ________.
    Solution
    Coal and petroleum are called fossil fuels. They serve as source of energy as on combustion, they release heat energy.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Process used in purification of water is:
    Solution
    Chlorination of water is done during purification of water to kill bacteria, viruses and other microbes in water.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Select the correct alternative(s).
    Coal is a fossil fuel and it cannot be prepared in a laboratory or industry because the formation of coal: 
    (A) is a very slow process.
    (B) needs very low pressure and low temperature
    (C) needs very high pressure and high temperature.
    (D) causes air pollution
    Solution
    Coal is a fossil fuel formed from dead plant matter that got buried deep inside layers of soil. The formation of coal involves various biological and geological processes which occur at very high temperature and pressure over a long period of time. But the formation of coal doesn't cause any air pollution.
    Only statements A and C are correct

    Hence option $$c$$ is correct.
