7. It is important to balance the chemical equations to satisfy the law of conservation of mass.
1

(a) The total mass of the elements present in the reactants is equal to the total mass of the
elements present in the products.
(b) The number of atoms of each element remains the same before and after the reaction.
(c) The chemical composition of the reactants is the same before and after the reaction.
(d) Mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
8. The neutralisation reaction between an acid and a base is a type of:

(b) Displacement reaction
(c) Addition reaction
(d) Decomposition reaction
9. You are given the following chemical reaction:
11. Assertion: - Lead nitrate on thermal decomposition gives lead oxide, brown coloured nitrogen
dioxide and oxygen gas.
Reason: - Lead nitrate reacts with potassium iodide to form yellow ppt of lead iodide and the
reaction is double displacement as well as precipitation reaction.
12. Assertion: After white washing the walls, a shiny white finish on walls is obtained after two
to three days.
Reason: Calcium Oxide reacts with Carbon dioxide to form Calcium Hydrogen Carbonate
which gives shiny white finish.
13. Assertion: Respiration is considered as an exothermic reaction
Reason: Exothermic reactions are those reactions in which heat is absorbed.
14. Assertion: -Corrosion of iron is commonly known as rusting.
Reason: -Corrosion of iron occurs in presence of water and air.
15. In the refining of silver, the recovery of silver from silver nitrate solution involved displacement by
copper metal. Write down the reaction involved. (2)
16. A white salt on heating decomposes to give brown fumes and a residue is left behind.
(a) Name the salt.
2
(b) Write the equation for the decomposition reaction. (2)
17. Identify the type of reactions in each of the following reactions:
(i) Zn+H2SO4 → ZnSO4+H2
(ii) CaO+H2O → Ca(OH)2
(iii) CaCO3→CaO+ CO2 (3)
18. A Zinc plate was put into a solution of copper sulphate kept in a glass container. It was found
that blue colour of the solution gets fader and fader with the passage of time. After a few
days when the zinc plate was taken out of the solution, a number of holes were observed on
it.
(a) State the reason for changes observed on the zinc plate.
(b) Write the chemical equation for the reaction involved. (3)
