substances that go into the soil and are used once more by plants.
5. Modern Periodic law states that “The chemical properties of the elements are the periodic functions of their atomic numbers.”
Hydrogen and Helium 6. Mg, P, Cl, Ar.
Increase in atomic no. means increase in nuclear charge which tends to pull the electrons closer to the nucleus and reduces size of atom.

(b) Increases Rays coming from distant object are focused beyond retina. Only light coming from far point P are focused on retina.
This distance increases in Hypermetropia as we can see the far distant objects easily.
11. (a) Because red colour is least deviated
(b) Since there will be no particles to scatter light, sky will appear black.
12. These are :-
(1) Non renewable
(2) Causes pollution
(3) Contribute to global warming

(b) When sodium reacts with ethanol, then a sodium salt sod. Ethanoate is formed carbon-dioxide
gas is evolved along with water vapors. The involved rxn is as follows :
CH3COOH+NaHCO3 → CH3COONa + H2O + CO2
5. (a) Borderline elements which are intermediate in properties between metals and non-metals.
(b) Boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, or any correct name.
16. (a) The diseases that are sexually transmitted .
(i) gonorrhoea or syphillis
(ii) warts, HIVAIDS.
(b) (i) use of condoms on penis.
(ii) use covering on vagina.
17 Geographical isolation leads to genetic drift and natural selection as the isolation in a particular
area leads to change in genes due to natural selection because only the best suited organisms
are able to survive.
18. (a) The centre of the lens (O)
(b) An imaginary straight line passing through the two centres of curvatures AB)
(c) parallel rays after refraction from a convex lens converge at focus. (F)
19. Organs having same basic structure but different functions e.g forelimbs of bird, man and frog. It
shows that the basic origin is same (common ancestor)
20. Real and equal in size to object virtual and enlarged
