B.For question two statements are given. One labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled
Reason(R) .Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes (a) , (b), (c) and (d) as given
below:(5)
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of the assertion.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
(c) A is true, but R is false. (d) A is false, but R is true.
1. Assertion: When copper sulphate crystals are heated in dry boiling tube, they turn white.
Reason: Water of crystallization is the number of water molecules present in one formula of a salt.
2. Assertion: Refraction of white light through prism gives rise to dispersion.
Reason: The refracting surface of prism are inclined to an angle called as angle of prism.
3. Assertion (A): White light is dispersed into its seven-color components by a prism.
Reason (R): Different colors of light bend through same angles with respect to the incident as they pass
through a prism
4. Assertion: Bleaching powder has a strong smell of chlorine.
Reason: Bleaching powder is a white powder and an oxidizing agent.
5. Assertion (A): Metals are malleable because they can be beaten into thin sheets.
Reason(R): Non-metals have physical properties different from those of metals.
