Q1. Table salt gets moist during rainy season because
बरसात के मौसम में टेबल साल्ट नम क्यों हो जाता है?
(a) sodium chloride is hygroscopic / सोडियम क्लोराइड हाइग्रस्कापिक है.
(b) sodium chloride is deliquescent / सोडियम क्लोराइड देलिक़ुएस्केन्त है.
(c) sodium chloride contains some quantity of sodium iodide /सोडियम क्लोराइड में कुछ मात्रा सोडियम आयोडाइड की होती है.
(d) sodium chloride contains hygroscopic impurities like magnesium chloride / सोडियम क्लोराइड में मैग्नीशियम क्लोराइड जैसे हाइग्रोस्कोपिक अशुद्धताएं होती हैं
Ans.(d)
Sol. Table salt is refined salt, which contains about 97 to 99 percent sodium chloride. It usually contains substances that make it free-flowing (anticaking agents) such as sodium aluminosilicate or magnesium chloride. Because of Hygroscopic nature of salt it become wet in rainy season as the salt absorbs moisture from environment.

Q2. Which of the following is used as a lubricant in heavy machines?
भारी मशीनों में स्नेहक के रूप में निम्नलिखित में से कौन सा उपयोग किया जाता है?
(a) Bauxite / बॉक्साइट
(b) Sulphur / सल्फर
(c) Phosphorus / फास्फोरस
(d) Graphite / ग्रैफाइट
Show Answer
Ans.(d)
Sol. Graphite is used as a lubricant in heavy machines. It is made of carbon atoms arranged in sheets of hexagonal units-looks a lot like chicken-wire. Another sheet forms on top of this and so on. There is no proper connection (in ideal graphite) between the sheets, so they are able to slide freely over each other without breaking any bonds.

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.
