Q.4 a. Propose the steps involved in the extraction of Copper metal by reactions. (05)

Ans.
By Bessemerization:
As the mineral has been freed of gangue the concentrated is passed through some chemical
process to extract pure metal. In the extraction of copper metal by reduction the Bessemer
converter is used. The concentrated cuprous sulphide is roasted in the presence of air and formed
cuprous oxide. Cuprous oxide then reduces into copper metal. The copper obtained is called

 blister copper because 𝑆𝑂2 produced during this reaction gets trapped inside its surface causing
blisters to appear on the surface of copper metal.
2𝐶𝑢2 S + 3𝑂2 → 2𝐶𝑢2 O + 2𝑆𝑂2
𝐶𝑢2 S + 2𝐶𝑢2 O → 6𝐶𝑢 + 𝑆𝑂2
By Electrolytic refining of copper:
On passing electric current through the acidified copper sulphate solution, impure copper
dissolves forming 𝐶𝑢+2 ions. These ions gains electrons at cathode and form Cu atoms, which
are deposited on the cathode. In this way pure copper is collected at cathode.

At anode: Cu → 𝐶𝑢+2+ 2𝑒 − (Oxidation)

tti
At cathode: 𝐶𝑢+2+ 2𝑒 − → Cu (Reduction)

b. Write down five properties of organic compounds. (05)

2. Organic compounds are soluble in organic solvents.

35
33 B B
3. Organic compounds are generally covalent in nature.
4. Organic compounds are volatile. So, they have low melting and boiling points.

Q.5 a. Enlist the diseases caused by the deficiency of vitamin A and D. (04)
b
Ans. “Deficiency diseases are diseases that are caused by the lack of certain essential

94
nutrients, especially vitamins and minerals, in one’s diet over a prolonged period of time.”
ai

Vitamin A:
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin. Deficiency of vitamin A leads to night blindness and skin
problems such as dryness, itching, and scaling.
Vitamin D:
32
o

Vitamin D deficiency causes rickets, which leads to the weakening of bones, especially near the
joints. It can also lead to the decaying of teeth and osteomalacia.

b. Enlist the names of layers of atmosphere and explain two layers which are nearest to the
Earth. (06)

Ans. The atmosphere is divided into four layers. And the nearest layers to the earth surface are
troposphere and stratosphere.
1) Troposphere
2) Stratosphere
3) Mesosphere
4) Thermosphere
1) Troposphere:
The layer of the atmosphere closest to the Earth is the troposphere. It begins at the surface of the Earth
and extends to about 12 km above the Earth’s surface. It is the layer of atmosphere in which we live.
03

Weather occurs in this layer. The temperature of the troposphere decreases with height. On average, for
every 1 km increase in altitude, the air gets about 6.5 °C cooler.
2) Stratosphere:
The second layer as one moves upward from the Earth’s Surface is called stratosphere. The layer
extends from top of the troposphere to about 50 km above the Earth’s surface. This layer
contains maximum amount of ozone and little amount of water vapour. Ozone saves us from
harmful effects of incoming ultraviolet radiations from the sun. In the stratosphere, temperature
varies from -55 C to -5 C.
