Question 1:
What is meant by a pure substance?
Answer :
A pure substance is the one that consists of a single type of particles, i.e., all constituent particles of the substance have the same chemical nature. Pure substances can be classified as elements or compounds.
Question 2:
List the points of differences between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures.
Answer:
A homogeneous mixture is the mixture having a uniform composition throughout the mixture. For example: salt in water, sugar in water, copper sulphate in water.

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture having a non-uniform composition throughout the mixture.
For example: oil and water, sodium chloride and iron fillings, salt and
sulphur.

Question 1:
Differentiate between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures with examples.
Answer :
A homogeneous mixture is a mixture having a uniform composition throughout the mixture. For example, mixtures of salt in water, sugar in water, copper sulphate in water, iodine in alcohol, alloy, and air have uniform compositions
throughout the mixtures. On the other hand, a heterogeneous mixture is a mixture having a non-uniform
composition throughout the mixture. For example, composition of mixtures of sodium chloride and iron fillings, salt and sulphur, oil and water, chalk powder in water, wheat flour in water, milk and water are not uniform throughout the mixtures.
Question 2:

Suspensions: Example- chalk powder and water, wheat flour and water

Question 3:
To make a saturated solution, 36 g of sodium chloride is dissolved in 100 g of
water at 293 K. Find its concentration at this temperature.
Answer :
Mass of solute (sodium chloride) = 36 g (Given)
Mass of solvent (water) = 100 g (Given)
Then, mass of solution = Mass of solute + Mass of solvent
= (36 + 100) g
= 136 g
Therefore, concentration (mass by mass percentage) of the solution

NCERT-Solutions-Class-9-Science-Chapter-2-Is-Matter-Around-Us-Pure-Questions-educational hand

A mixture of two miscible liquids having a difference in their boiling points more than 25°C can be separated by the method of distillation. Therefor, kerosene and petrol can be separated by distillation.

In this method, the mixture of kerosene and petrol is taken in a distillation flask and a thermometer fitted in it. We also need a beaker, a water condenser, and a Bunsen burner. The apparatus is arranged as shown in the above figure. Then, the mixture is heated slowly. The thermometer should be watched continuously. Petrol will vaporize first as it has lower boiling point. It condenses in the condenser. The condensed Petrol is collected from the condenser outlet, whereas Kerosene is left behind in the distillation flask.
Question 2:
Name the technique to separate
(i) butter from curd
(ii) salt from sea-water
(iii) camphor from salt.
Answer :
(i) Butter can be separated from curd by centrifugation.
(ii) Salt can be separated from sea-water by evaporation.
(iii) Camphor can be separated from salt by sublimation.

 

Question 3.
What types of mixtures can be separated by technique known as crystallisation ?

Question 2.
Write the steps you would use for making tea. Use the words-solution, solvent, solute, dissolve, soluble, insoluble, filtrate and residue.

Answer:
Tea can be made in the steps given bellow:

  1. Take approximately two to three cups of water (solvent) in a pan and heat it on a gas burner.
  2. When water starts boiling, add some amount of milk and sugar (both are solutes).
  3. Now, stir with a spoon. As a result, sugar will dissolve and milk will become miscible with water. A solution will be formed.
  4. Further boil the solution for sometime so that sugar may completely dissolve.
  5. Now add the required amount of tea leaves (solute) to the pan. Boil again and filter through a sieve. Tea will be collected as filtrate. Tea leaves will get collected on sieve as residue.

(d) With rise in temperature, the solubility of all the salts in water increases. This has been shown by the data given in the table. Similarly, when the temperature is decreased, the solubility of these salts in water decreases.

Question 4.
Explain the following, giving examples :
(a) Saturated solution
(b) Pure substance
(c) Colloid
(d) Suspension.

Answer:
(a) Saturated solution: A solution becomes saturated if the solute starts separating at the bottom of the container in which the solution is being prepared at a given temperature. A saturated solution generally becomes unsaturated upon heating.
(b) Pure substance: A pure substance means a single substance (or matter) which cannot be separated into other kinds of matter by any physical process.
(c) Colloid: Colloidal solutions are also heterogeneous in nature like suspensions, but they have smaller size of the particles which are distributed. It ranges between 1 nm to 100 nm i.e., in between the particle size of true solution and suspension.
(d) Suspension: A suspension may be defined as a heterogeneous mixture in which the solid particles are spread throughout the liquid without dissolving in it. They settle as precipitate if the suspension is left undisturbed for sometime.

Question 5.
Classify each of the following as a homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture :

(c) Air
(d) Soil
(e) Vinegar
(f) Filtered tea.

Answer:
Homogeneous mixture : Soda water, air, vinegar, filtered tea.
Heterogeneous mixture : Wood, soil.
Air is a homogeneous mixture of different gases. However, if some dust or other particles are present, then air becomes a heterogeneous mixture.

Question 6.
How would you confirm that the colourless liquid given to you is pure water ?

Answer:
This can be confirmed by the following experiments :

  1. Filter the colourless liquid through a very fine filter paper. If no residue is left on the filter paper, this means that the liquid is pure water and has no suspended inpurities present in it.
  2. Evaporate the colourless liquid in a china dish or beaker. In case no residue is left, this means that it is pure water and has no dissolved impurities present in it.
  3. Determine the boiling point of pure liquid. If it comes out to be nearly 373 K (100°C), this means that the pure liquid is water.
