How will you separate a mixture containing kerosene and petrol (difference in their boiling points is more than 25oC), which are miscible with each other?
Simple distillation separation technique We separate the two miscible liquids on the basis of their boiling point. Boiling point of petrol is lower than kerosene which will distill first in the form of vapours and will be collected in a separate beaker.
Kerosene having higher boiling point will distil later on and will be collected in another beaker.

State the universal law of gravitation.
Which of the following are matter?
Chair, air, love, smell, hate, almonds, thought, cold, cold-drink, smell of perfume.
A force of 7 N acts on an object. The displacement is, say 8 m, in the direction of the force (Fig. 11.3). Let us take it that the force acts on the object through the displacement. What is the work done in this case?
How does the sound produced by a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear?
In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.
sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water
What are canal rays?
State any two conditions essential for good health.

An object experiences a net zero external unbalanced force. Is it possible for the object to be travelling with a non-zero velocity? If yes, state the conditions that must be placed on the magnitude and direction of the velocity. If no, provide a reason.
The potential energy of a freely falling object decreases progressively. Does this violate the law of conservation of energy? Why?
Why do organisms need water?
Differentiate between parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma on the basis of their cell wall.
How are pteridophytes different from the phanerogams?
Under which of the following conditions is a person most likely to fall sick?
(a) when she is recovering from malaria.
(b) when she has recovered from malaria and is taking care of someone suffering from chicken-pox.
(c) when she is on a four-day fast after recovering from malaria and is taking care of someone suffering from chicken-pox. Why?
