उत्तर

Hydrogen and oxygen are considered as elements because they cannot be split further into simpler substances by usual chemical methods as they are made of one kind of atoms. On the other hand, water is not an element, as it consists of different types of atoms, i.e., hydrogen and oxygen and can be split up into its components by chemical processes.

Which of the following is not an element ?


A, B and C are all liquids. Liquid A has a comparatively low boiling point. On heating, liquid A vaporises completely without leaving behind any residue. Liquid A is being used increasingly as a fuel in motor vehicles either alone or by mixing with petrol. Liquid B has a very high boiling point. It also vaporises completely on heating, without leaving any residue. Liquid B is a conductor of electricity and used in making thermometers. Liquid C has a moderate boiling point. On heating, liquid C vaporises leaving behind a white solid D which is used in cooking vegetables. The condensation of vapours from C give a liquid E which turns anhydrous CuSO4 to blue.
