Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Match the following:
     

    a. Landfill 1. Converting solid waste into manure
    b. Composting 2. Putting waste to new use
    c. Recycling 3. Area where solid garbage is dumped
    d. Biodegradable 4. Waste that undergoes rotting
    Solution

    Landfill is an area where solid garbage is dumped.
    Composting is converting solid waste into manure by the action of anaerobic bacteria.

    Recycling is putting waste to new use after some processing.
    Biodegradable is the waste that which can be decomposed by the bacteria by the action of enzymes secreted by them. Decomposing matter is also said to be rotting .

    Hence, the correct match is a - 3, b - 1, c - 2, d - 4.

     

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Which of the following options shows the correct sequence of waste management?

    Solution

    First of all, the waste is collected.

    The waste is then segregated into biodegradable, non-biodegradable and recyclable waste.

    Finally the waste is properly treated and disposed.

     

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    Which of the following statements is/are false?

    (a) Empty glass bottles are reusable.
    (b) Domestic sewerage is an example of biodegradable waste.
    (c) Plastic waste is biodegradable.
    (d) To keep the environment clean, we should recycle the waste.

    Solution

    All the other statements are correct.
    Empty glass bottles are reusable and doing so will reduce the amount of waste produced.

    Domestic sewerage is an example of biodegradable waste and it is decomposed by anaerobic bacteria to form manure.
    Recycling of the waste when possible reduces the the amount of garbage and help to maintain a clean environment.

     

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    Which of the following is not a non-biodegradable waste?

    Solution

    All organic waste,i.e., which comes from plants or animals is biodegradable.

     

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    Which of the following statements is/are false?

    a. Stray animals often get killed when they swallow plastic bags from the garbage dumps.
    b. Burning of polythene bags is an effective method of waste disposal.
    c. Waste management is a huge challenge because of the excessive use of plastic.

    Solution

    The statement (b) is false because burning of polythene bags is highly undesirable as it releases extremely toxic substance into the environment.
    All the other statements are correct.

    Plastics are non biodegradable and building up of the non biodegradable waste makes waste management hugely challenging.

    Swallowing of polythene bags by the animals is extremely harmful because being non-biodegradable, they just accumulate inside the bodies of these animals and may prove fatal.

     

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Analyse the two statements given below and select the correct option.

    Statement I: Air is a mixture of different gases.
    Statement II: The different gases in the atmosphere forms different layers, with the heaviest gas forming the bottom-most layer.

    Solution

    Statement I is correct, but statement II is incorrect.

    The gases in the air do not separate out to form layers as they spontaneously move from their higher concentrations to the lower to form a uniform mixture, due to the property of diffusion.

     

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    Match the components of air given under left column with their characteristics given under right column:
     

    Components of Air Characteristics
    1. Nitrogen (a) Causes rain on condensing
    2. Oxygen (b) Used by green plants to manufacture food
    3. Inert gases (c) Very unreactive
    4. Carbon dioxide (d) Used in the process of respiration
    5. Water vapour (e) Major component of air
    Solution
    Components of Air Characteristics
    1. Nitrogen (e) Major component of air
    2. Oxygen (d) Used in the process of respiration
    3. Inert gases (c) Very unreactive
    4. Carbon dioxide (b) Used by green plants to manufacture food
    5. Water vapour (a) Causes rain on condensing

     

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    Analyse the given statements:

    A. Air is a compound formed by chemical reactions between different gases.
    B. Air displays the properties of all the component gases.
    C. The gases in the air are essential for the sustenance of life on the Earth.
    D. The dust particles in the air play an important role in the formation of clouds.

    Which of the following options is the correct analysis of the statements?
     

      A B C D
    (1) F F T T
    (2) T F F T
    (3) F T T T
    (4) T F T T
    Solution

    Only statement A is incorrect as air is a mixture of gases and not a compound.
