CLASS IX QUESTION ANSWERS
Q1: Which separation techniques will apply for the separation of the following?

1. Sodium chloride from its solution in water.
2. Ammonium Chloride from a mixture containing Sodium Chloride and Ammonium Chloride.
3. Small pieces of metal in the engine oil of a car.
4. Different pigments from an extract of flower petals.
5. Butter from curd.
6. Oil from water.
7. Tea leaves from tea.
8. Iron pins from sand.
9. Wheat grains from husk.
10. Fine mud particles suspended in water.
11. Q2How would you confirm that a colourless liquid given to you is pure water?
12. Every liquid has a characteristic boiling point at 1 atmospheric pressure. If the given colourless liquid boils exactly at 373 K at 1 atmospheric pressure, then it is pure water. If the boiling point is different then the water is contaminated.
13. Q.3*State the difference between simple distillation & fractional distillation.
14.  Fractional distillation: 
    1.Fractional distillation is the process of separation used mainly to separate liquid mixtures based on difference in boiling points.when the difference in boiling points of liquid components is less than 25⁰C.
15. Fractionating column is used in this method
16. Ex: Separation of natural gas, kerosene oil…etc from petroleum done by using fractional distillation.
    
    Distillation:
    Simple distillation also used to seperate the liquid mixturesoror a mixture of solid in a liquid, when the difference in boiling points of liquid components is greater than 25⁰C.
17. Fractionating column is not used in the process.
18. eg. Mixture of acetone and water, obtaining pure water from sea water
19. Q. 9. In the formation of sodium chloride from its constituent elements, do the properties of its elements change. Explain.
    
    
    Ans: Sodium is a very reactive metal that reacts exothermically with water. If we were to ingest a pinch of sodium, it would burn our intestines. Chlorine is a greenish yellow gas with acharacteristic irritating odour and pungent taste. When sodium and chlorine combine to form sodium chloride, the properties of the elements are totally changed. Sodium chloride is a white substance totally safe to be ingested and is used to add flavour to our food.
