Alkalis
All bases donot dissolve in water. An alkali is a base that dissolves in
water. Common alkalis are
NaOH
Sodium hydroxide
KOH
Potassium hydroxide
Ca(OH)2
Calcium hydroxide
NH4OH
Ammonium hydroxide
Note : All alkalis are bases but all bases are not alkalis.
Precaution must be taken while mixing acid or base with water. The
acid must always be added to water with constant stirring as it is a
highly exothermic reaction.
When an acid or a base is mixed with water they become dilute. This
results in the decrease in the concentration of H3O+ or OH per unit
volume in acids and bases respectively.

Some metals like Na and K are kept immersed in kerosene oil as they
react vigorously with air and catch fire.
Some metals like Mg, Al, Zn, Pb react slowly with air and form a
protective layer.
Mg can also burn in air with a white dazzling light to form its oxide
Fe and Cu dont burn in air but combine with oxygen to form oxide.
Iron filings burn when sprinkled over flame.

METALS AND NON-METALS : IN BRIEF
Metals are generally solid, sonorous, lustrous, good conductor of heat
and electricity, malleable, ductile, high melting point, high densities,
form basic oxides, form +vely charged ion.
Non-metals are generally solid or gas, non-lustrous, non-sonorous, bad
conductor of heat and electricity, have low melting point, form acidic
oxides and form -vely charged ions.
Metals like Na, K and Ca are highly reactive, while others like
Magnesium, Aluminium, Zinc and Lead are less reactive and some
others are least reactive like silver, gold and platinum.
Metals generally displace hydrogen from acids.
Reactivity series is based on displacement capability of metals and is
a series of metals in the order of their decreasing reactivity.
Metals and non-metals react to form ionic compounds which are soluble
in water, have high melting point and are good conductor of electricity
in their aqueous solution or molten state.
Ores are minerals from which a metal can be profitably extracted.
Metals are extracted from their ores according to their reactivity.
Sulphide and chloride ores are roasted while carbonate ores are
calcinated.
Pure metals can be obtained using electrolytic refining process.
Metals are generally attacked by air and corrode. To alter the properties
of metals alloys are made.
Steel, stainless steel, amalgams, brass, bronze and solder are some
alloys.

It is evident that the number of shared pair of electrons can be one, two
or three. Try making the structures of H2O and CH4.
Bond formed by the sharing of an electron pair between two atoms is
called covalent bond.
Covalently bonded molecules have low melting and boiling points
because of comparatively weaker intermolecular forces, unlike ionic
compounds.
These molecules are generally poor conductor of electricity since no
charged particles are formed.

Homologous Series
It is a series of compounds in which the same functional group substitutes
for hydrogen in a carbon chain.
For instance, the ALCOHOLS: CH3 OH, C2H5 OH, C3H7 OH, C4H9 OH.
The successive member differs by CH2-; unit and 14 units of mass.
The chemical properties are imparted by the functional group thus all
members have similar chemical properties. But the members have
different physical properties.
The physical properties vary among the members of homologous series
due to difference in their molecular mass.
Melting point and boiling point increases with increasing molecular mass.

Vegetative Propagation
A mode of reproduction in which reproduction takes place from the
vegetative parts like the stem, root, leaves.
Methods of Vegetative Propagation
Natural
1. By Roots : E.g. adventitious roots of Dahlias
2. By Stems : E.g. Potato (tuber), ginger (rhizome)
3. By Leaves : E.g. leaves of bryophyllum bear adventitious buds (in the
notches of leaf margin) which develop into new plants.
Artificial
1. Grafting : E.g. Mango.
2. Cutting : E.g. Rose
3. Layering : E.g. Jasmine
4. Tissue adture : E.g. Orchids, Ornamental Plants.
Benefits of Vegetative Propagation
1. Plants can bear flowers, fruits earlier than those produced from seeds.
2. Growing plants like Banana, orange, rose, jasmine that have lost the
capacity to produce seeds.
3. Genetical similarity is maintained in the plants.
4. Helps in growing seedless fruits.
5. Cheaper and easier method of growing plants.
Sexual Reproduction
When reproduction takes place as a result of fusion of two gameets, one
from each parent, it is called sexual reproduction.

Ovary Stigma
Egg cell (ovule)
[n]
Zygote divides several times to form an embryo within the ovule. The
ovule develops a tough coat and is converted into a seed.
91
[Class-X Science]
Ovary grows rapidly and ripens to forms a fruit, while the seed contains
the future plant or embryo which develops into a seedling under suitable
condition. This process is known as Germination.
The formation of male germ cell (sperms) takes place in the testes
(male reproductive organ)
A pair of testes are located inside scrotum which is present outside the
abdominal cavity. Scrotum has a relatively low temperature needed for
the production of sperms by testes.
Testes release a male sex hormone called testosterone and its function
is to:
1.
2.
The sperms along with the secretion of prostate gland and seminal
vesicle, together constitute semen, which is released and made to enter
into the female genital tract during Copulation.
The female germ cells or eggs are produced in the ovaries. (located in
both side of abdomen).
[Class-X Science]
92
The Egg is carried from the ovary to the womb through a fallopian
tube. These two fallopian tube unite into an elastic bag like structure
known as uterus.
The fertilized egg also called zygote (2n) gets implanted in the lining
of the uterus, and start dividing. Actually uterus is richly supplied with
blood to nourish the growing embryo. If zygote is not formed, the inner
wall of uterus breaks which causes bleeding through vagina. This process
is called MENSTRUATION. It occurs at a regular interval of 28 days.
The Embryo gets nutrition from the mother's blood with the help of a
special tissue called PLACENTA. It provides a large surface area for
glucose and oxygen to pass from the mother to the embryo. Similarly
the wastes from developing embryo are removed to mother's blood
through placenta.
The time period from fertilization upto the birth of the baby is called
Gestation Period. In humans, it is about nine months (36 weeks).

This shows that half the children will be boys and half will be girls. All
children will inherit an X chromosome from their mother regardless whether
they are boys or girls. Thus sex of children will be determined by what they
inherit from their father, and not from their mother.
EVOLUTION
Evolution is the sequence of gradual changes which takes place in the
primitive organisms, over millions of years, in which new species are produced.
Situation-I
Group of red beetles
Colour variation arises during reproduction
All beetles red except
one that is green
103
[Class-X Science]
Situation 1 : Green beetles got the survival advantage or they were naturally
selected as they were not visible in green bushes. This natural selection is
exerted by crows resulting in adaptations in the beetles to fit better in their
environment
Situation-II

Crows can see both blue and red beetles and can eat them
Number reduces but still red beetles are more and blue ones are few
Suddenly elephant comes and stamps on the bushes
But now beetles left are mostly blue.

SPECIATION
Micro Evolution : It is the evolution which is on a small scale. e.g.
change in body colour of beetles.
The process by which new species develop from the existing species is
known as speciation.
Speciation : it is the process of formation of new species.
Species : A group of similar individuals within a population that can
interbreed and produce fertile offspring.
Geneflow : It is exchange of genetic material by interbreeding between
populations of same species or individuals

Atmospheric Refraction
1. Apparent Star Position : It is due to atmospheric refraction of starlight.
The temperature and density of different layers of atmosphere keeps
varying. Hence we have different medium.
Distant star act as point source of light. When the starlight enter the
earths atmosphere it undergoes refraction continuously, due to changing
refractive index i.e. from Rarer to denser, it bends towards the normal.
Due to this the apparent position of the star is different from actual
position.
The star appears higher than its actual position.

Scattering of Light
Tyndall Effect : When a beam of light strikes the minute particle of
earths atmosphere, i.e., suspended particles of dust and molecule of air, the
path of beam becomes visible. The phenomenon of scattering of light by the
colloidal particle gives rise to Tyndall Effect.
It can be observed when sunlight passes through a canopy of a dense
forest.
The colour of the scattered light depends on the size of the scattering
particles.
1. Why cloud Appear white : The size of water droplet (scattering particle)
is very large, hence scattered all wavelength of light almost equally.
2. Why colour of sky is blue : The molecules of air and other fine
particles in the atmosphere have size smaller than the wavelength of
visible light. Since the blue has shorter wavelength than red, hence it
will be scattered the most.
According to Rayleigh scattering
1
Scattering of light 4 Wavelength)
[Class-X Science]
During sunset and sunrise, the sun is near horizon, and therefore the
sunlight has to travel larger distance in atmosphere. Due to this most
of the blue light (shorter wavelength) are scattered away by the particles.
The light of longer wavelength (red colour) will reach our eye. This is
why sun appear red in colour.
4. Why the danger signal or sign are made of red colour.
Red colour scattered the least when strikes the small particle of fog and
smoke because it has the maximum wavelength (visible spectrum).
Hence at large distance also, we can see the red colour clearly.
5. At noon sun appear white :
At noon, the sun is overhead and sunlight would travel shorter distance
relatively through the atmosphere. Hence, at noon, the Sun appear
white as only little of the blue and violet colours are scattered.

Application of Heating Effect of Electric Current
1. Used in electric iron, toaster, oven, heater etc.
2. It is also used in bulb to produce light.
(Filament of bulb is made of strong metal with high melting point such
as tungsten (m.pt = 3380C). This filament can retain as much of the
heat generated as possible, to become very hot and emit light)
3. It is also used in the fuse connected in an electric circuit. Fuse is a
safety device, that protect the circuits and appliance by stopping the
flow of high current. The wire of fuse is made of an alloy of metals
e.g., Aluminium Copper, Iron, Lead etc. The alloy should be of low
melting point and high resistivity, fuse is always connected in series
circuit. When large current flows through the circuit, the temperature
of fuse wire will increase. This melts the fuse wire and breaks thecircuit.
Fuses used for domestic purposes are rated as 1A, 2A, 3A, 5A, 10A
etc. for various operation depending upon the power of appliance using.
Example : let us consider an appliance electric Iron which consume
1KW electric power, at 220V

CHAPTER 13
MAGNETIC EFFECTS OF
ELECTRIC CURRENT
In this chapter, we will study the effects of electric current :
1. Hans Christian Oersted (1777-1851)
Oersted showed that electricity and magnetism are related to each other.
His research later used in radio, television etc.
The unit of magnetic field strength is named Oersted in his honour.
2. Oersted Experiment
R
X
XY is conductor (Cu wire)
through which current is passed
Y
On passing the current through the copper wire XY in the circuit, the
compass needle which is placed near the conductor gets deflected. If
we reverse the direction of current, the compass needle deflect in reverse
direction. If we stop the flow of current, the needle comes at rest.
Hence, it conclude that electricity and magnetism are linked to each
other. It shows that whenever the current will flow through the conductor,
then magnetic field around. it will develop.
3. Magnetic Field : It is the region surrounding a magnet, in which force
of magnet can be detected. It is a vector quantity, having both direction
& magnitude.

Every point on the wire carrying current give rise to the magnetic field,
appearing as a straight line at the centre of loop. By applying Right
hand Thumb rule, we can find the direction of magnetic field at every
section of the wire.
11. Solenoid : A Coil of many circular turns of insulated copper wire
wrapped closely in the shape of a cylinder is called solenoid.
12. Magnetic field due to a current in a solenoid :
The filed lines inside the solenoid are in form of parallel straight
lines, that implies that magnetic field inside the solenoid is
same at all points i.e. Field is uniform.

In this experiment, when the north pole of bar magnet is brought closer
to the coil or away from the coil, we see momentary deflection in the
needle of galvanometer on either side of null point. First right and then
left.
Similarly, if we keep the magnet stationary and coil is made to move
towards or away from the north pole of magnet. Again we will observe
deflection in the needle of galvanometer.
If both bar magnet and coil are kept stationary, there will be no deflection
in galvanometer.
This experiment can also be done with the south pole of magnet, we
will observe the deflection in galvanometer, but it would be in opposite
direction to the previous case.
It concludes that motion of magnet with respect to coil or viceversa, changes the magnetic field. Due to this change in magnetic field
lines, potential difference is induced in the same coil, which set up an
induced current in the circuit.
(b) Second Experiment : Mutual Induction

Secondary Coil

Coil 2

[Class-X Science]
In this experiment plug in the key that connects coil with battery and
observe the deflection in galvanometer. Now plug out the key that
disconnect the coil-1 from battery and observe the deflection in
galvanometer, which will be in reverse direction.
Hence, we conclude that potential difference is induced in secondary
coil (coil-2), whenever there is a change in current, in primary coil
(coil-1) (by on and off of key).
This is because, whenever there is change in current in primary coil
Now, magnetic field lines around the secondary coil (coil-2) will change
and induces the electric current in it (observed by the deflection of
needle of Galvanometer in secondary circuit)
This process, by which changing of strength of current in primary coil,
induces a current in secondary coil is called Electromagnetic Induction
The induced current is found to be highest when the direction of motion
of coil is at right angles to the magnetic field.

Industrialization and rise in demand of consumer goods have created a
major problem in the form of wastes/garbage accumulation and its disposal
especially in urban area.
The different methods of solid wastes disposal commonly used around
the world are.
1. Open dumping : A conventional method in which solid wastes dumped
in selected areas of a town. It actually cause pollution
2. Land fillings : Wastes are dumped in low living area and are compacted
by rolling with bulldozers
3. Composting : Organic wastes are filled into a compost pit (2m 1m
1m). It is then covered with a thin layer of soil. After about three
months the same garbage filled inside the pit changes into organic manure.
4. Recycling : The solid wastes is broken down into its constituent simpler
materials. These materials are then used to make new items. Even nonbio degradable solid wastes like plastic, metal can be recycled.
5 Reuse : A very simple conventional technique of using an item again

many other features which are found in reptiles. It has feathered
wings like those of birds but teeth and tail like those of reptiles.
It is, therefore, a connecting link between the reptiles and birds
and hence suggests that the birds have evolved from the reptiles.

can not group these animals together on the basis of eyes that
they possess because structure of eyes in each of these organisms

These practices will help in bringing more rain, increasing the oxygen
content thereby reducing air pollution. Also, polythene bags are nonbiodegradable so, that using them will reduce soil pollution. Both the
practices help in saving the environment.
7. Excessive exploitation of natural resources with short term aims is the
basis of affluent life style.
Example : Use of air-conditioners and refrigerant add to CFC in the
atmosphere which causes ozone depletion. Similarly excessive use of
diesel and petrol adds to harmful gases causing air pollution.
8. Several pesticides used to protect our crops from diseases and pests are
washed down into the soil or into water bodies. From the soil, these
are absorbed by the plants and from the water bodies these are taken
up by aquatic plants and animals. Human beings occupy the top level
in any food chain. Therefore, maximum concentration of the harmful
chemicals get accumulated in our bodies. This phenomenon is called
Biological magnification.
