Section 1
Ethylene is a colourless ammable gas with a faint ‘sweet and musky’ odour when pure.
Ethylene is a gas and is known as the “fruit-ripening hormone.” Every fruit has a certain level of
ethylene production throughout its lifecycle. However, in some fruits, ethylene levels shoot up when
the fruit starts ripening.

Section 2
Bronze, alloy traditionally composed of copper and tin. Bronze is of exceptional historical interest
and still nds wide applications.
The Bronze Age marked the rst-time humans started to work with metal. Bronze tools and
weapons soon replaced earlier stone versions. Humans made many technological advances during
the Bronze Age, including the rst writing systems and the invention of the wheel. In the Middle East
and parts of Asia, the Bronze Age lasted from roughly 3300 to 1200 B.C., ending abruptly with the
near-simultaneous collapse of several prominent Bronze Age civilizations.

Tin oxide, also known as stannic oxide, is the inorganic compound with the formula SnO2 . The
mineral form of SnO2 is called cassiterite, and this is the main ore of tin. With many other names,
this oxide of tin is an important material in tin chemistry. It is a colourless, diamagnetic, amphoteric
solid.

So a and Laura wanted to check the impact of changing atmospheric composition on plant growth.
First experiment was performed by So a where the percentage of Nitrogen gas was adjusted to
compensate for changes in other two gases. Carbon dioxide level was kept at 0.04 and Oxygen level
was varied.
Second Experiment was performed by Laura where the level of oxygen was kept 22 percent and
carbon dioxide and Nitrogen concentration were varied.
Experiment 1
Percent Oxygen Percent Carbon Dioxide Percent Nitrogen Growth Rate (mm / day)
5 0.04 94.96 12
15 0.04 84.96 13

Section 5
Coal is classi ed into four main types, or ranks: anthracite, bituminous, subbituminous, and lignite.
The ranking depends on the types and amounts of carbon the coal contains and on the amount of
heat energy the coal can produce.

Antiseptics are sometimes called skin disinfectants. But there's a big difference
between antiseptics and disinfectants. An antiseptic is applied to the body, while disinfectants are
applied to non-living surfaces, such as countertops and handrails.
