14 Two liquids ‘A’ and ‘B’ are miscible with each other at room temperature. Which separation 1
technique will you apply to separate the mixture of ’A’ and ‘B’ if the difference in their boiling
point is 150 C?
15 What would you observe when 1
a) Saturated solution of potassium chloride prepared at 600C is allowed to cool to room mark
temperature. each
b) If carbon disulphide is added to a mixture of iron filings and sulphur powder.
16 Calculate the amount of glucose required to prepare 250 g of 5% solution of glucose by mass. 2
17 Iron filings and sulphur were mixed together and divided into two parts, A and B. Part A was 2
heated strongly while part B was not heated. Dilute hydrochloric acid was added to both the
parts and evolution of gas was seen in both the cases. How will you identify the gases
evolved?

non-sonorous and non-malleable
a) Name a lustrous non-metal.
b) Name a non-metal which exists as a liquid at room temperature.
c) The allotropic form of a non-metal is a good conductor of electricity. Name the allotrope.
d) Which non-metal is known to form large number of compounds
