POINTS TO REMEMBER<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Air cannot be seen as it is transparent we only feel its presence when it blows.<\/li>\n
  2. The thick layer of air around earth upto 320 km above the surface is called atmosphere.<\/li>\n
  3. Air is a mixture of various gases, water vapours, which protects us from harmful rays of Sun. It consists of nearly 80% nitrogen, 20% oxygen.<\/li>\n
  4. The components of air can be separated by simple physical means. Has no formula.<\/li>\n
  5. N2<\/sub> is inert gas, reduces the effect of\u00a0O2<\/sub> present in air, N2<\/sub> is helpful in plant growth as it provides nitrates used by plant for formation of protein which is important nutrient for animals.<\/li>\n
  6. Oxygen is supporter of combustion no burning is possible without\u00a0O2<\/sub> and no life is possible without it.<\/li>\n
  7. CO2<\/sub> is must for plant life, plants prepare their food taking\u00a0CO2<\/sub> from air.\u00a0CO2<\/sub> maintains temp, of earth and without\u00a0CO2<\/sub> our planet would be too cold.<\/li>\n
  8. Ozone in the upper layers of atmosphere protects the earth from harmful ultraviolet rays of Sun.<\/li>\n
  9. Air is useful in many ways : Acts as medium for propagation of sound, birds, insects to fly in air, air ships, aeroplanes to fly only must due to presence of air. Air helps in movement of yachts, parachutes, aircrafts etc. Air is must for animals and plants on earth and air dissolved in water for aquatic life.<\/li>\n
  10. Respiration :<\/strong> Is a slow chemical process when\u00a0O2<\/sub> present in the inhaled air reacts with the digested food material in the body to release energy,\u00a0CO2<\/sub> and water. Sugar + Oxygen -> Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy.
    \nBreathing :<\/strong> The complete process in which air is inhaled and exhaled is called breathing.<\/li>\n
  11. Combustion :<\/strong> Burning of substance in air completely producing CO2<\/sub>, heat and light.<\/li>\n
  12. Photosynthesis :<\/strong> Preparation of food by green plants taking\u00a0CO2<\/sub> from air, water from soil in presence of sun light.<\/li>\n
  13. Oxygen in air remains constant it is not depleted as plants during day time produce lot of\u00a0O2<\/sub> in air.<\/li>\n
  14. Soil contains air trapped in between its particle and organisms living there breath this oxygen. Due to this earth worms come out of soil during heavy rains as water gets into the pores in the soil.<\/li>\n
  15. Common pollutant of air are smoke, dust, coal, emitted by industries and automobiles.<\/li>\n
  16. Gases like SO2<\/sub>, NO2<\/sub> also pollute air as they form corresponding acids when they come in contact with water vapours in air and fall down in the form of acid rain with rain water.<\/li>\n
  17. These pollutants reduce the visibility which lead to accidents, cause global warming.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    EXERCISE-I<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    Question 1.<\/strong><\/span>
    \nWhat is atmosphere ?
    \nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
    \nThe earth is surrounded by a thick layer of air called the atmosphere that extends upto a height of about 320 kilometres above the surface of the earth.<\/p>\n

    Question 2.<\/strong><\/span>
    \nWhy can\u2019t we see air ?
    \nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
    \nWe can\u2019t see air because it is colourless, odourless and transparent gaseous matter.<\/p>\n

    Question 3.<\/strong><\/span>
    \nWhat is wind ?
    \nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
    \nFast moving air is called wind.<\/p>\n

    Question 4.<\/strong><\/span>
    \nWhat would have happened if there would have been no atmosphere around the earth ?
    \nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
    \nWithout atmosphere life would not be possible as atmosphere protects us from harmful gases. We could not live without
    \nair present in atmosphere. In absence of the atmopshere, the earth would get so cold at night that we would not be able to survive. No CO2<\/sub> and\u00a0N2<\/sub> for plants without atmosphere.
    \nP.Q. When water is heated, we see bubbles rising up. Why ?<\/strong>
    \nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
    \nWater has a lot of air dissolved on it. This is what allows breathing to fishes and other aquatic beings. The solubility of gases decreases when the temperature is raised, and that is why the dissolved air bubbles out from the water.<\/p>\n

    Question 5.<\/strong><\/span>
    \nWhy is air called a mixture ? Give five facts in support of your answer.
    \nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
    \nAir is a mixture because :<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Air has no formula, a mixture has no formula whereas compound has a formula.<\/li>\n
    2. No energy changes are involved to form air from various gases.<\/li>\n
    3. When air is formed out of its constituents no change in mass and no change in volume takes place.<\/li>\n
    4. Properties of air vary from place to place and time to time. i.e. there is more CO2<\/sub> in towns as compared to villages where more oxygen prevails as compared to towns.<\/li>\n
    5. Components of air can be separated by simple physical methods.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Question 6.<\/strong><\/span>
      \nWhat are the main components of air ? Write down the composition of three main gases present in air by volume.

      Question 7.<\/strong><\/span>
      \nWhat do you observe when<\/p>\n

      (a)<\/strong> Ice cold water is filled in a glass tumbler.
      \n(b)<\/strong> A burning candle is covered with an inverted jar.
      \n(c)<\/strong> Carbon dioxide gas is passed through lime water.
      \n(d)\u00a0<\/strong>A beam of light is allowed to enter in a closed dark room through a small hole.<\/p>\n

      Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

      (a)<\/strong> We will observe that fine water droplets get deposited on the outer wall of the glass tumbler.
      \n(b)<\/strong> The candle burn more brightly because candle gets oxygen support in burning.
      \n(c)<\/strong> When CO2<\/sub> gas is passed through lime water it forms calcium carbonate which is white precipitate (turbidity). This gives the milky white appearance to the solution.
      \n(d)<\/strong> We will observe randomly moving dust particles in the beam of light. This confirms the presence of dust particles in the air.<\/p>\n

        \n(d)<\/strong> water vapour<\/p>\n

        Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

        (a)<\/strong> Oxygen: For respiration and breathing no life is possible without oxygen.
        \nOxygen is the most vital component which is responsible for two most important processes,
        \n(i)<\/strong> Respiration and
        \n(ii)<\/strong> Combustion.
        \n(b) Nitrogen :<\/strong> Present in air gets fixed up in the soil as nitrates used by plants for their growth and for the formation of protein an important nutrient for animals. It is used to make fertilizers and various nitrogenous products.
        \n(c) Carbon dioxide :<\/strong> Carbon dioxide is used by plants to prepare their food by photosynthesis. Dry ice (solid carbon-dioxide) is used as a refrigerant. Carbon dioxide is used to prepare fizzy drinks like soda water.
        \n(d) Water vapour :<\/strong> Water vapors present in air provide moisture for both plants and animals. It also helps in predicting climatic conditions of a particular area as its amount varies from place to place and time to time.<\/p>\n

        Question 3.<\/strong><\/span>
        \nDefine the following:<\/p>\n

        (a)<\/strong> Respiration
        \n(b)<\/strong> Photosynthesis
        \n(c)<\/strong> Combustion.<\/p>\n

        Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

        (a)<\/strong> Respiration : Respiration is a chemical process that takes place in all living beings (slow in plants). In this process, oxygen present in inhaled air reacts with the digested food material in the body. This results in release of energy, carbon-dioxide and water.
        \nSugar + Oxygen \u2192 CO2<\/sub> + Water + Energy.
        \n(b)<\/strong> Photosynthesis : Process of producing food by green plants taking CO2<\/sub>\u00a0from air, water from soil by roots and in presence of sun light and chlorophyll is called photosynthesis.
        \n(c)<\/strong> Combustion : Combustion also called burning \u201cis burning of substance in oxygen of air completely producing heat and light is called combustion.\u201d<\/p>\n

        Question 4.<\/strong><\/span>
        \nWhat are fuels ? Give two examples of modern fuels.
        \nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
        \nFuels :<\/strong> The substances which burn in air to produce large amount of energy in the form of heat and light are called fuels.
        \nExamples :<\/strong><\/p>\n

        1. CNG (Compressed natural gas)
        \n2. LPG (Liquefied natural gas)<\/p>\n

        Question 5.<\/strong><\/span>
        \nGive reasons :<\/strong><\/p>\n

        (a)<\/strong> Aquatic animals and plants are able to survive in matter.
        \n(b)<\/strong> A burning candle stops burning if covered with a glass tumbler.
        \n(c)<\/strong> Mountaineers and divers carry oxygen cylinders with them.
        \n(d)<\/strong> When water is heated, we see bubbles rising up.<\/p>\n

        Answer:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

        (a)<\/strong> Aquatic animals and plants use oxygen dissolved in water and survive.
        \n(b)<\/strong> Oxygen is necessary for combustion when covered with a glass tumbler supply of oxygen stops.
        \n(c)<\/strong> For artificial respiration mountaineers carry oxygen cylinders as at high altitudes, the air is thin and breathing becomes difficult. Also divers carry oxygen cylinder for artificial respiration as there is less oxygen dissolved in water (less dense) and breathing becomes difficult.
        \n(d)<\/strong> These bubbles come from the air dissolved in water. The marine life uses air dissolved in water.<\/p>\n

        Question 6.<\/strong><\/span>
        \nName the processes which maintain the balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide in the air. How is it done?
        \nAnswer:<\/strong><\/span>
        \nRespiration and combustion are the processes which maintain the balance between oxygen and CO2<\/sub> in the air.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Respiration :<\/strong> Respiration is a chemical process that takes place in all living beings. In this process, oxygen present in the inhaled air reacts with the digested food material in the body. This results in the release of energy, carbon dioxide and water.<\/li>\n
        2. Combustion :<\/strong> Burning or combustion is a process in which a substance reacts chemically with oxygen and gets oxidised, with the release of energy in the form of heat and light. It is a fast process. During the process of burning, along with energy, carbon dioxide and water vapour are also produced.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
