Why is the amount of gas collected in one of the test tubes in the following Activity double of the amount collected in the other? Name this gas.
- Take a plastic mug. Drill two holes at its base and fit rubber stoppers in these holes. Insert carbon electrodes in these rubber stoppers as shown in the following Fig.
- Connect these electrodes to a 6 volt battery.
- Fill the mug with water such that the electrodes are immersed. Add a few drops of dilute sulphuric acid to the water.
- Take two test tubes filled with water and invert them over the two carbon electrodes.
- Switch on the current and leave the apparatus undisturbed for some time.
- You will observe the formation of bubbles at both the electrodes. These bubbles displace water in the test tubes.
- Is the volume of the gas collected the same in both the test tubes?
• Once the test tubes are filled with the respective gases, remove them carefully. - Test these gases one by one by bringing a burning candle close to the mouth of the test tubes.
Caution: This step must be performed carefully by the teacher.
- What happens in each case?
- Which gas is present in each test tube?

Write the balanced chemical equation for the following and identify the type of reaction.
\[\ce{Zinc carbonate(s) -> Zinc oxide(s) + Carbon dioxide(g)}\]
The white solid compound A decomposes quite rapidly on heating in the presence of a black substance X to form a solid compound B and a gas C. When an aqueous solution of compound B is reacted with silver nitrate solution, then a white precipitate of silver chloride is obtained along with potassium nitrate solution. Gas C does not burn itself but helps burn other things.
(a) What is compound A?
(b) What is compound B?
(c) What is gas C?
(d) What do you think is the black substance X? What is its function?
(e) What is the general name of substances like X?
What type of reaction is represented by the following equation?
NH4 CI → NH3 + HCI

Which of the following is an endothermic process?
Balance the following chemical equation and identify the type of chemical reaction.
`"H"_2"O"_2("l") overset("U V")(->) "H"_2"O"("l") + "O"_2("g")`
When lead nitrate is heated strongly in a boiling tube, two gases are liberated and a solid residue is left behind in the test tube.
- Name the type of chemical reaction and define it.
- Write the name and formula of the coloured gas liberated.
- Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.
- Name the residue left in the test tube and state the method of testing its nature (acidic/basic).
