Classification of Elements
(Marks - 5, Marks with option 8)
Introduction :
Man has discovered 116 elements uptil now. We use (Modern Periodic Table, (Long Form of Periodic Table) prepared by Moseley to study the elements.
Features of Modern Periodic Table :
(1) Atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons or electrons in the atom of the element.
(Atom of any element contains equal number of protons and electrons)
(2) Moseley observed that properties of the elements are a periodic function of their atomic numbers. Therefore Moseley assumed atomic number (z) as the basis of modern periodic table.
(Definition of the periodic law-refer to page 2)
(3) There are 7 rows (known as periods) and 18 columns (known as Groups) (4) At the bottom of the periodic table there are 2 additional rows known as series. All
the elements in series belong to third group. Do not misunderstand series as periods.
(5) Place of element in the periodic table suggests -a) Serial No. of period
b) Whether the element is metal, non-metal or inert gas. c) reactivity of an element
d) Valency of an element
e) no. of electrons in the outermost orbit.
f) While studying periods, one has to refer the periodic table from left to right gradually. One can understand whether the element is metal, non-metal, metalloid or an inert gas.
g) Refer the group from top to bottom. No. of shells go on increasing from top to bottom gradually. All the elements from the same column contains equal number of electrons in the outermost shell.
h) The entire table is divided into four blocks based on electronic configuration of elements.
Block Group No. Name
s block 1,2 Normal elements
p block 13 to 17 Normal elements
p block 18 Inert elements
d block 3 to 12 Transition elements f block lanthenide, Inner transition
actinide series elements
The periodic table can be read like a cross-word puzzle.
Prepare a blank periodic table and solve the following.
Ex. 1 : The element carbon (C) is in second period and 14th group of the periodic table.
Place element Carbon in the proper place.
Ex. 2 : Atomic no. of hydrogen is 1and that of lithium is 3. Place the elements in proper
place in the periodic table. (Note - Electronic configuration of hydrogen is 1, and lithium is 2,1) 2 3 4 5 6 7 1 periods 1/IA 2/IIA s-block Modern Periodic T able

Elements: z symbol (Electronic configuration) 18/ zero
Ex. 3 : Atomic no. of silicon is 14, which is greater than atomic no. of carbon by 8. Locate
the position of silicon in the periodic table, with the help of given information. Prepare a blank table (Table no. 1.2, page 4)
If we consider the table from left to right, we can observe that the chemical properties of elements change gradually. Table no. 1.2 consists of the molecular formulae of compounds formed by elements of the second period. The change in valency depends upon the change in electronic configuration of elements. Gradual change in the molecular fourmulae is synchronous with the change in properties of elements. While filling Table no. 1.2, first write symbol and valency of the element. After that write molecular formula of the corresponding compound.
e.g. LiCl
6
Li6
1Q. 1 Atomic no. of Mangnesium is 12. And molecular formula of Magnesium Chloride is MgCl2. If the At. no. of aluminium is 13, Write the molecular formula of aluminium chloride.
Q. 2 Atomic no. of Carbon is 6, and molecular formula of Carbon chloride is CCl4. Atomic no. of boron is 5. Find out and write the molecular formula of boron chloride.

Electrolysis
(Marks - 4, Marks with option 7)
Introduction :
You must have read in the newspapers about mishaps and accidents caused due to lightening falling on the earth. Lightening occurs when the clouds collide with each other. When lightening falls on the earth its electric level is much greater than that of the earth which is zero. This level of electric energy is called potential. Difference between electric level is called potential difference. Difference between electric level causes electric current.
1) Conductivity of substance :
Every substance is made up of atoms and molecules. Substances having free electrons in large numbers in their atoms conduct electricity.
Electric conductors are three main types. We are going to study electrolytic conductors.
2) Comparison between Electrolytes and Non Electrolytes :
Electrolytes Non Electrolytes
3) Difference between anion and cation
Anion Cation
i) A substance whose aqueous solution can conduct electric current is called electrolyte. ii) Most of the electrolytes are
electrovalent compounds. iii) All acids, bases and salts
are electrolytes. Molten salts some covalent compounds (HCl, NH3) undergo ionisation on dissolving in water. They are also electrolytes.
i) A substance whose aqueous solution can not conduct electric current is called non-electrolyte.
ii) Non-electrolytes are co-valent compounds.
iii) Organic compunds like glucose, urea, cane sugar alcohol are non electrolytes.
i) Anions are negatively charged ions.
ii) During electrolysis anion gives electrons and becomes neutral.
iii) During electrolysis anion attracts towards anode, hence the name anion.
i) Cations are positively charged ions.
ii) During electrolysis cation accepts electrons and becomes neutral.
iii) During electrolysis cation attracts towards cathode, hence the name cation.
Note - Positively charged electrode is known as anode and negatively charged electrode
is known as cathode.
4) For types of conductors and definitions of electrolyte and non-electrolytes refer to text
book page no. 13,14.
5) Electrolysis of Copper Chloride :
(Observe Fig 2.2 on 16 from the text-book) Both the electrodes are carbon rods. Open end of Carbon rod attached to positive terminal of the battery is called as anode. Open end of Carbon rod attached to the negative terminal of the battery is called as cathode.
The observation and inference of the experiment is as follows :
The chemical reaction during electrolysis of copper chloride solutions : a) Reaction at Cathode :
Positively charged copper ions attract towards negative electrode, accept electrons and convert into copper metal
b) Reaction at anode :
Negatively charged chloride ions attract towards positive electrode, give electrons and convert into chlorine gas.
Note : During electrolysis of copper chloride, chloride ion (Cl–) gives away electrons and
copper ion (Cu2+) accepts the electrons and copper and chlorine form is elemental form. 6) Electroplating :
Refer to Fig. no. 2.3 on page 18 of the text book.
Note the following points about the process
-a) An article to be electroplated should be used as negative terminal (cathode) b) A rod of the less active metal to be coated on the article is used as positive
terminal (anode)
c) The electrolyte used should be of the same metal, which is used as anode.
For example
-For electroplating of silver on copper article, Copper article should be treated as cathode and silver rod should be treated as anode.
Changes Observation Inference
1) At cathode 2) At anode 3) Colour of electrolyte 1) Reddish deposit is seen. 2) Bubbles of a gas are observed. 3) Blue colour starts
fading.
1) Copper is deposited at Cathode.
2) The gas given out is chlorine. 3) Due to decreasing concentration of copper chloride molecules colour fades. Cu2+ (aq) + 2e – →Cu (s) 2Cl– (aq)→ Cl2(g)2e –
The electrolyte should be a solution of silver nitrate. Go through and study Table no. 2.1 for the process.
7) Anodising Technique
-Get information about the process (described) on page no. 18,19 of the text book.) and practical applications.
8) Ion as charge Carriers in living system :
Every living being is made up of cells. Cell contains Cell-sap and inorganic ions. They control the functions of cells. (Read more information about the process on page nos. 19, 20 of the text book.)
Points to remember :
i) Electric potential is the level of electric energy.
ii) Electric current flows from higher electric potential to lower electric potential. iii) Electric conductors are of three types
1) Gaseous conductors
2) Metallic (Electronic) conductors 3) Electrolytic conductors
iv) Electrolytic conductors conduct electric current by movement of ions.
·
Electrolytes : These are the substances in the molten state or whose aqueoussolutions conduct electric current.
·
Non-Electrolytes : These are the substances which do not conduct electricity eitherin the molten state or in the aqueous state.
·
Electrolytes : All acids, bases, salts.·
Non-Electrolytes : Carbon compounds like glucose, sugar, urea, alcohol etc.·
Electrolysis : It is the process of decomposition of an electrolyte by the passage ofelectric current.
·
Electroplating and anodising are the applications of electrolysis.·
Electroplating is a process by which a metal or an alloy is coated with another lessactive but more attractive metal, using electrolysis.
·
Anodising is another application of electrolysis where the surface of the aluminiumanode is covered by a thin film of aluminium oxide to make the aluminium surface resistant to corrosion and abrasion.
·
During electrolysis, cations move towards cathode and anions move towards theanode.
·
When aqueous copper chloride solution is electrolysed, copper is deposited at the cathode and chlorine is evolved at the anode. Due to ionisation of copper chloride, the no. molecules of copper chloride in the solution decreases and hence the colour fades.·
Many phenomena in living organisms are controlled by ion transport across cell·
Healthy heart requires proper K+/Na+ balance in the body. Solved Sample Questions :1) Give scientific reason
-Distilled water is a bad conductor of electricity.
Ans : a) Pure distilled water being a covalent compound does not dissociate. b) As it does not dissociate, we cannot get cations and anions. As there is
no movement of ions, distilled water does not carry current. Hence it is a bad conductor of electricity.

.5) 8 ohm and 4 ohm resistors are connected in parallel combination and the e.m.f. of the
cell is 3 volt and internal resistance ohm.Find the total current in the circuit. Ans. : Formula : Total voltage generated by the battary is given by the formula :
E = IR + Ir = I (R + r) ...I E = E.M.F. of the cell = 3 Volt,
Internal resistance of the cell (r) = ohm, First we have to find R = ?
In this case R1 = 8 ohm and R2 = 4 ohm resistors are connected in parallel combination,

Also R3 = 12 ohm,
First consider in series combination; Rs = R1 + R2 + R3

Rs = 12 + 12 + 12 = 36 ohmNow in parallel combination,
Q. 2 Give scientific reasons :
1) Potential difference of source of current (i.e. cell) is less than e.m.f.
Ans : As e.m.f. of the source is the work done by the source in raising a unit positive charge from its lower potential end to higher potential end. The energy imported to the charge by the source is used to circulate the charge round the circuit against opposition to external circuit and internal resistance of the source. Therefore e.m.f. (E) is greater than the potential difference (V) between its terminals.
2) The plates of heating devices such as toaster, an electric iron are made of an alloy rather than a pure metal.
Ans. : A good conductor of a given size has a low resistance. Copper is a good conductor while some alloys like nichrome and constantan have a high resistance. So the heat will be produced more, when current is passed through nichrome coil or plates.The melting point of nichrome is also higher than pure metal. That is why the material of toaster electric iron are made of an alloy like nichrome rather than pure metal.

Effects of Electric Current
(Marks - 3, Marks with option 6)
Introduction :
Today our most of the daily activities depend upon electric power, e.g. mixer, refrigerator, heater, oven, T.V., radios, even recharging of the cell phone requires electric power supply. When power supply breaks down, our many activities stop and life gets disturbed. In this chapter we are going to study the heating effect and magnetic effect of electric current and their practical applications.
Previous knowledge : In the previous chapter we have studied some important concepts
about electric current, like resistance of a conductor.
A) Some important conceptds, terms and definitions - study carefully them.
(Numbers in the bracket shows the page numbers from the text book) 1) Heating effect of an electric current (page 60)
2) Joule's law (page 63)
3) Magnetic effect of an electric current (page 66) 4) Right hand rule (page 69)
5) Direct current and Alternating current (page 71)
B) Draw and label the diagrams and practice
1) Verification of Joule's law (fig. 5.1) (page 61) 2) Oersted's experiment (fig. 5.3) (page 66)
3) Lines of magnetic field due to current carrying straight line conductor (fig. 5.5) (page 68)
4) Electric bell (fig. 5.9) (page 72)
5) Telephone ear piece (fig. 5.10) (page 73)
C) Study the following formulae carefully and make use of these formulae for solving numericals.
1) Joule's law formulae : H = I2Rt Joules
Here, H = Quantity of heat produced I = Electric current (Ampere) R = Electrical resistance (Ohms) t = time (seconds)
To convert the above heat in calories, substitute 1 calorie = 4.18 Joules
By Ohm's law we substitute I = H = caloriesI
2 R t
4.18 V
we gets,
Again by same process we get,
ˆ
Various forms of Joule's formula will be as follows :i) H = I2Rt Joules ii) H = calories
iii) H = calories iv) H = calories * (Cal is the short form used for calories.)
2) Electric Power
P = VI
P = electric power (Watts)
V = Electric potential difference (Volts) I = Electric current (Ampere)
By Ohm's law we substitute, V = IR The above equation will be
-P = Here ,
V = Potential difference (Volts) R = Electrical resistance (ohms)
N.B. : 1) 1 Watt =
1 kilowatt = 1000 watts
2) If we observe the electric bulb,We see the following information
-(a) The power of the bulb (in Watts) (b) The potential difference (in Volts)
e.g. 40 Watts, 250 Volts. It means the power of the bulb is 40 Watts, and it works fully at 250 Volts P.D. Hence we observe dim light when the voltage is lowered.
D) Study carefully the following units.
1) The quantity of heat generated in a conductor depends upon the following factors ... (page 63)
2) Application of the heating effect of electric current (page 64, 65) 3) Magnetic effect of electric current (page 66, 67)
4) Solenoid and magnetic field produced by solenoid (page 70, 71) 5) Direct and alternating current information. (page 71)
H = caloriesV 2 t 4.18 R H = caloriesV I t 4.18 V I t 4.18 V2 t 4.18 R I2 Rt 4.18 V2 R 1 Joule 1 second
6) Safety precautions while using electrical appliances:
a) Precautions against bad insulations (page 74) b) Precautions against improper earthing (page 75) c) General precautions for safety. (page 75)
E) Study the following information carefully :
1) The resistance of the conductor depends on the material used. Gold, silver, metals have very low resistance. But these are noble metals, hence for conduction of electric current wires of gold, silver are practically impossible. Copper and aluminium are also good conductors and have low resistance. So for electric wiring purpose copper or aluminium wires are used.
2) The resistance of the conductor also depends upon the area of cross-section. Smaller the area of cross-section, larger will be the resistance. Therefore in electric bulb very thin hairy wire of tungston metal in the form of coil is used. Due to coil formation length of the wire increases, which shows that resistance is directly proportional to the length, i.e. larger the length of wire, larger will be the resistance. So in heater, geyser the nichrome coil is used
3) In a safety fuse lead allloy wire is used. Because lead has very low melting point, hence when, high current flows through the circuit, the fuse wire gets heated and melted. The circuit is broken and current stops flowing, so the electric appliance will not be damaged. For different types of electric appliances fuses of suitable capacities are used.

Q. 2 Give scientific reasons :
1) Filament of incandescent lamp is made of tungston :
Ans. :The resistance of tungston is very high, so if current is passed through tungston coil, due to its high resistance it becomes white hot which emits light. Also the melting point of tungston is very high. So it will not melt at that temperature. Therefore the filament of incandescent lamp is made of tungston.
2) Fuse is made of material having low melting point.
Ans.: The function of the fuse is to protect the electrical appliances from sudden rise of potential difference in the circuit. Therefore if such incidence happens, due to low melting point of the fuse it melts and the circuit breaks. Thus protecting the appliances connected in that circuit. Therefore generally fuse is made of lead alloy because the melting point of lead is low.

Types of Energy
(Marks - 3, Marks with option 5)
Introduction :
We are familiar with different forms of energy — thermal energy, light energy, sound energy, magnetic energy. We are going to study mechanical energy in this chapter.
7.1 Points to remember –
i) What is energy? (page 101) ii) Types of energy
a) Potential energy (page 102) formula (page 104)
b) Kinetic energy (page 105) formula (page 106) iii) units - CGS, MKS (page106)
iv) Law of conservation of energy (page 107)
7.2 Study fig. no. 7.1 on page 103 and read more about the work done while lifting an object through the height 'h' from A to B
Note that, if
θ
is the angle between a constant force F acting on a body and a displacement 'r' of the body caused by this force, then the work done by the force isW = F.r cos
θ
When F and r are in the same direction,
θ
becomes 0 and cos 0 = 1. Hence Work done = W = Fr.cosθ
= F× rUnits of Potential energy and Kinetic energy:
Units of work and energy is same.
In CGS system, unit of energy is dyne-cm It is also called as 'erg'
In MKS system, unit of energy is Newton-meter It is also called as 'Joule'
1 Joule = 107 erg. A) Potential Energy P.E. :
P.E. = mgh
P.E. = Potential Energy g = gravitational acceleration h = height of the object
It is clear from the above equation, that P.E. of a particular object will change according to the value of 'h'
When the object is at rest on the earth's surface 'h' becomes zero.
When angle between force and displacement is 900. Then work done becomes O
because,
W = Fr cos
θ
= Fr cos 90= Fr × 0 (
ˆ
cos 900 = 0)= 0
When an object rolls on the ground h = 0, hence P.E. = 0
B) Kinetic Energy [K.E.]
K.E. = mv2
K.E. = Kinetic energy m = mass of an object v = velocity of the object
It is clear from the above equation, that K.E. of a particular object will change according to the value of 'v'.
When the object is at rest, its velocity is zero. Hence its K.E. becomes zero.
C) Law of conservation of Energy
-E = P.-E. + K.-E. (E = Total energy)
∴
E = mgh + mv2i) When we throw the object upward or downward, the total energy of the object at any moment is always constant.
When we throw the object upward, its K.E. is maximum and P.E. is zero conversely, if we drop the object from a height, its PE is maximum and KE is minimum.
During transit, when one energy increases, the other decreases at the same rate. Hence total energy remains constant.
Note - While throwing the object upwards, K E changes from maximum to zero, at the
same time P.E. changes from zero to maximum.
ii) Study the various examples of transformation of energy from the text book. (page nos. 112, 113, 114).
Solved Sample questions Q.1 Give scientific reasons
i) The work done on an object by a conservative force is zero. If it has come back to the same point from where it started.
Ans. i) Work done on an object by conservative force depends only on initial and final positions and not on path followed.
ii) An object comes to the same point where it is started.
iii) Hence work done on an object by a conservative force is zero. 1

Power
(Marks - 2, Marks with option 4)
Introduction :
In our daily life we use strength as power. But these two terms have different scientific meaning. If the same work is done for different time duration, then we say the power is different in scientific view. In this chapter we are going to study about power and its units and applications
Previous knowledge : In previous standard we might have been studied about work and
energy and their definitions and applications. We also know that the units of work and energy are same. viz. In CGS unit it is Erg, while in MKS unit it is Joule.
A) Some important concepts, definitions and units : (The number in the bracket is

3) In industry the unit of work, also energy is expressed as kilowatt-hour (K.W. hr.) For
consumption of electricity it is also KW-hr and is called as unit. We know that 1 Kilowatt = 1000 Watts
and 1 hour = 3600 seconds.
4) Study carefully the following.
1) Work = Force × displacement
ˆ
W = F × s Unit of force (F)In CGS system the unit of force is dyne and in MKS system it is Newton. 1 Newton = 105 dyne.

Sound
(Marks - 3, Marks with option 5)
9.0 Previous knowledge :
Sound is produced by a vibrating body. Vibrating tuning fork produces sound. Vibrating string, vibrating plates also produce sound. Harmonium and trumpet vibrate air and produce sound. These instruments are sources of sound.
9.1 Production of sound :
Sound travels in the form of longitudinal waves consisting of alternate compression and rarefaction. Due to vibrations of an object when adjacent layers of air are pressed, compression is formed. When adjacent layers get seperated, rarefactions are formed. [Observe fig 9.2 in the text book). When these longitudinal waves in the air reach the ear, the ear drum is set into vibrations. These vibrations are communicated to brain and we get sensation of hearing.
9.2 Medium is essential for propogation of sound Previous knowledge : solid, liquid and gas are the media
Points to study : i) Sound waves do not travel through vaccum. They need a medium for propogation. Refer to experiment on pg. 128 i.e. Sound waves need a medium.
ii) The velocity of sound in air at 00C is 332 m/s. Velocity of sound is different in different
media.
Refer table no. (9.1) in the text book i.e. Velocity of sound in different media.
9.3 Propogation of sound in different media
Previous Knowledge : The number of cycles or vibrations completed in one second is
termed as the frequency of the vibrations. The MKS unit of frequency is Hertz. (i.e. Hz)
Points to study :
i) The sound which has frequency between 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz is audible sound. This frequency range is audible range for human beings.
ii) The sound having frequency below 20 Hz and above 20,000 Hz cannot be heard by human being.
iii) To understand how sound is propogated in air, refer experiment on page no. 129 in the text book.
iv) Study of table no. (9.1) on page no. 130, we can understand that the velocity of sound is maximum in the solids, less in the liquids and least in the gases. Velocity of light is greater than velocity of sound that is why we see flash of lighting from the clouds before the thunder is heard although both occur simultaneously.
9.4 Reflection of sound waves : Previous Knowledge :
i) Some hill-stations have echo points, which attract the tourists.
ii) When you shout into a well or inside an empty hall, you hear your own sound after some time.
i.e. reflection of sound.
Points to study : Echo effect means the reflection of same sound periodically. Sound is
incident on plane surface and it gets reflected. This sound is called as reflected sound. Echo can be heard only if the reflected sound reaches the ear at 1/10th of
a second after the direct sound is heard.
Velocity of sound in air at ordinary temperatures is 340 m/s. The minimum distance covered within 1/10th second will be
340 × = 34 m
In other words echo is heard only if the reflecting surface is at least at a distance of 17 meters
9.5 Effect of wind, Temperature and Humidity on velocity of sound :
Previous knowledge : Loudspeakers are used for announcements in the village fair and
advertisements.
Points to study :
i) Wind - When sound travels in the direction of the wind, the velocity of sound is greater. When sound travels in a direction opposite to that of the wind. The velocity of sound lowers.
ii) Temparature : Velocity of sound depends upon temperature. Increase in the temperature increases the velocity of sound in air.
iii) Humidity : Humidity depends upon the water vapour present in air. The velocity of the sound in moist air is greater than the velocity of the sound in dry air. Increases in humidity increases the velocity of sound in air.
9.6 Intensity of sound :
Intensity is the amount of sound energy received per second from the source of sound.
Unit of intensity of sound is decibel (dB). For sound intensity of different sources, refer to table (9.2) on page no. 136 in the text book.
9.7 Sound pollution or noise : Noise is sound dumped into the atmosphere.
1) Children making noise in the classroom 2) Noise of fire crakers in Diwali.
Unwanted sound is called noise. This unwanted sound makes sound pollution.
Causes of noise :
Noise is caused by various sources. 1) Internal sources.
2) External sources.
Noise pollution is a health hazard. 1
Refer to page 137 and 138 of textbook for effect of noise pollution and measures of noise control.
Solved Sample Questions Q. 1 What is Echo?
Ans. : Reflected sound is known as echo
Q. 2 How the principle of echo is used to measure the depth of sea?
Ans : The principle of echo is used in the (SONAR) system of ship to detect the depth of the sea. From the transmitter in the ship sharp pulses of sound are emitted. These pulses travel downword and get reflected from the sea bed. The reflected sound is detected by the receiver in the ship.
The time interval between the production of sound and its reflection is recorded. Knowing the velocity of sound in water and time, the depth of sea can be determined by following formula
Depth of sea = Velocity of sound in water ×
Q. 3 Whistle of a passing train is clearly heard on a quiet misty night.
Ans : At night when humidity tends to rise, the sound travels faster. Hence sound can be heard more clearly on a quiet misty night.
Hence whistle of a passing train is clearly heard on a quiet misty night (pg. no. 136)
Q. 4 Define - Intensity of sound
Ans Intensity is the amount of sound energy received per second from the source of sound.
Q. 5 What is sound pollution?
Ans. An unnecessary, unpleasant, intolerable or unwanted sound is called noise or sound pollution

Previous knowledge :
Heat is one of the forms of energy and it can be obtained by transforming any other form of the energy.
Sun, wood, charcoal, cooking gas are some of the sources of heat.
Heat can be produced by chemical reactions, flow of electric current and nuclear reactions.
10.1 Anomalous behaviour of water :
Previous knowledge : Any substance when heated expands and contracts on cooling.
Most of the liquids expand on heating and contract on cooling. But water shows a remarkable exceptional behaviour between OC0 to 40C
When water is heated from 00C initially it contracts in volume upto 40C instead of
expansion.
The behaviour of the water between 00C to 40C is called anomalous expansion of
water.
The anomalous behaviour of water can be demonstrated with the help of Hope's apparatus.
Practice the diagram of Hope's Apparatus. Refer pg no. 144 in the text book
At 40C, the volume of water is minimum. Hence density of water is maximum at
40C. Density of ice is less than water, therefore ice floats on water. If we take water in
a glass and put some pieces of ice in it, we observe that ice floats on water. Following are some examples of anomalous expansion of water.
i) In cold countries; fishes, acquatic animals and plants remain alive.
ii) In cold countries sometimes water enters into the crevices of rocks. When temperature falls below 40C water expands and tremendous pressure is exerted
on rocks. So these rocks crumble into pieces.
iii) In winter, the pipe lines carrying water burst when the temperature of atmosphere falls below 40C
10.2 Humidity and dewpoint :
i) The presence of the water vapour in the atmosphere plays an important role in everyday life. The amount of the water vapour present in the atmosphere determines the nature of the weather.
Before raining we perspire a lot. Then we say that humidity in air is increased and soon it will rain.
Similarly the region nearby sea such as Bombay, Goa, Ratnagiri etc. percentage of humidity is more in these region. So we perspire more.
ii) In winter, we observe dewdrops on grass and on vehicles. If we keep pieces of ice in stainless steel glass then we observe dewdrops on the outer surface of the glass. Because the water vapour which is in air gets condensed on the outer surface of the glass. Study the definitions of absolute humidity, relative humidity and dew point from text book (pg. no. 147, 148)
10.3 Units of Heat :
Study the definitions of calorie, kilo calorie, specific heat capacity from text book (pg. no. 149, 150)
10.4 Specific heat capacity :
This property changes from material to material (Refer to the experiment on pg. no. 149 in the text book)
Specific heat capacity of water is highest (Study table no. 10.1 on pg no. 150. Study MKS and CGS unit of sp. heat capacity.
10.5 Principle of heat exchange :
We know that for daily bathing we mix cold water to hot water. Here hot water provides heat to cold water and cold water absorbs heat from the hot water. When hot body and cold body is kept together the temperature of hot body goes on decreasing while that of the cold body goes on increasing until both the bodies attain the same common temperature within a short while.
Formula : Heat lost by the hot body = Heat gained by the cold body.
Using this formula solve the numerical examples.
Solved Sample Questions Example :
1) Certain mass of water at 640C is mixed with an equal mass of water at 220C. What
will be the resulting temperature of the mixture? Ans. Given, Let mass of water = m gm
Specific heat of water = 1 cal/g0C
t1 = 640C, t 2 = 22
0C t
3 =? (temp. of mixture)
Formula : Heat lost by hot body = Heat gained by cold body mc (t1 – t3) = mc (t3 – t2)
ˆ
t1 – t3 = t3 – t2ˆ
64– t3 = t3 – 22ˆ
m is same for hot and cold waterˆ
2 t3 = (64 + 22) 0Cˆ
t3 =( ) 0Cˆ
t3 = 43 0CAns. The temperature of the mixture will be 430C.

* Specific heat of water is 1
It is the highest than other most known liquids and solids.
* Due to high specific heat, hot water is used in the hot water bags and used for heating purposes.
