There is a large group of materials P which can be divided into three groups Q, R and S on the basis of their properties. The substances belonging to group Q can be solids, liquids or gases. The solids belonging to group Q are usually electrical insulators. Most of the substances of group R are solids which are good conductors of electricity. The substances belonging to group S are neither insulators like Q nor good conductors like R. The properties of S are intermediate between those of Q and R.
- What could the group of materials P be ?
- Name the substances Q. Give two examples of such substances.
- Name the substances R. Write two examples of such substances.
- Name the substances S. Give two examples of such substances.
- Out of Q, R and S, which substances are malleable and ductile ?
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.
(a) Which liquid could be an element ? Name this element.
(b) Which liquid could be a mixture ? Name this mixture.
(c) Which liquid could be a compound ? Name this compound.
(d) What could the solid D be ?
(e) What do you think is liquid E ?

One of the following represents the solution of solid in a solid. This one is :
100 mL of water at room temperature of 25°C is taken in a beaker and a little of solid S is dissolved in it by stirring to obtain a solution X. More and more of solid S is added to the solution with constant stirring, while keeping the temperature of solution constant at 30°C. After some time it is observed that no more solid dissolves in water and at the same time some solid is also left undissolved at the bottom of the beaker.
- The contents of beaker are filtered through a filter paper to obtain solution Y in the form of a filtrate.
- What name is given to solutions like X ?
- What name is given to solutions like Y ?
- What will you observe if the solution Y at 30°C is cooled down to 10°C by keeping the beaker in crushed ice ? Why ?
