(c) 1, 2 and 4   / 1,2 और 4
(d) 1, 2, 3 and 4  / 1,2,3 और 4

Show Answer
Ans.(d)
Sol. Drinking water is described as “hard” due to the presence of highly dissolved minerals specifically sulphates of Calcium and Magnesium Chloride. It is very difficult to wash clothes with hard water as it requires more soap and leaves a messy scum that cannot be washed out easily. When hard water is boiled at home or in industries, it leaves deposits of Calcium and Magnesium salts. These deposits reduce the efficiency of boilers, kettles and pipes and can cause blockages and even burst of the boilers. If salt level increases in irrigation water, it becomes harder for lawns and landscape plant to take up water even though the soil is moist. Consequently, more salty water requires extra effort to irrigate.

Q12. Permanent hardness of water is due to-
 पानी की स्थायी कठोरता की वजह है:
(a) Chlorides and sulphates of Calcium and Magnesium / कैल्शियम और मैग्नेशियम के क्लोराइड और सल्फाट
(b) Calcium bicarbonate sulphates / कैल्शियम बिकारबोनेट सल्फ़ेट्स
(c) Magnesium bicarbonate  / मैग्नेशियम बाइकार्बोनेट
(d) Clorides of Silver and Potassium  / सिल्वर और पोटेशियम के क्लोराइड्स

Q13. Which is the purest form of water? 
पानी का सबसे शुद्ध रूप कौन सा है?
(a) Tap water  / नल का पानी
(b) Sea water  / सागर का पानी
(c) Rainwater  / वर्ष का पानी
(d) Distilled water / आसुत पानी
Show Answer
Ans.(c)
Sol. Rainwater gets its compositions largely by dissolving particulate materials in the atmosphere (upper troposphere) when droplets of water nucleate on atmospheric particulates and secondly by dissolving gases from the atmosphere. Its pH value is 7 whereas the water on the earth is mixed with an alkaline material that makes the water impure. 

Q14. Water is a good solvent of ionic salts because-
पानी आयनिक लवण का एक अच्छा विलायक है क्योंकि-
(a) It has a high boiling point  / इसका उच्च क्वथनांक है
(b) It has a high dipole moment / इसमें एक उच्च द्विध्रुव आघूर्ण है
(c) It has a high specific heat  / इसमें उच्च विशिष्ट आघूर्ण है
(d) It has no colour  / इसका  कोई रंग नहीं है

Show Answer
Ans.(b)
Sol. Water is a good solvent due to its polarity which can easily dissolve into polar compounds. Water dissolves ionic salts by hydrating their component ions. For example, water dissolves NaCl by hydrating and stabling the Na+ and Cl– ions.
Q15. Large quantities of drinking water is prepared from impure water by- 
अशुद्ध पानी से पीने के पानी की बड़ी मात्रा को किसके द्वारा तैयार किया जाता है -  
(a) Desalination  / डिसेलिनेशन
(b) Distillation  / आसवन
(c) Ion-exchange  / आयन विनिमय
(d) Decantation  / निस्तारण

Show Answer
Ans.(a)
Sol. Desalination is a process that removes minerals from saline water (Also refer to removal of salts and minerals). Seawater desalination has a very effective way of production of potable water for drinking and industries.
