LESSON – 8

SOME PROPERTIES OF WATER

1.   Mention three physical properties of water.

a.   Water has a fixed volume

b.   Water occupies space

c.    Water flows easily

 

2.   State the three forms of water

Three forms of water are:

a.   Solid form

b.   Liquid form

c.    Gaseous form

 

3.   State the two conditions which affect the making of a solution

a.   A solute dissolves faster in water when it is stirred.

b.   A solute dissolves faster in water when it is heated.

 

4.   How is solution formed?

A solution is formed when two or more substances mix together and dissolve completely. The substance that dissolves is called a solute and the substance in which a solute dissolves is called a solvent.

 

5.   What is the difference between soluble and insoluble substances?

The substances which dissolve completely in water are called soluble substances. The substances which do not dissolve in water at all are called insoluble substances.

 

6.   Why does some of the objects float on water while some sink in water?

Objects lighter than water remains on surface of water. This is called floating. On the other hand objects heavier than water go down to the bottom. This is called sinking.

  LESSON – 9 WATER AS A RESOURCE   1.     State of water is interchangeable. How? Water exist in e states, ice, water, and water vapour. All the three states are interchangeable. Ice can be changed into water by melting. Water can be changed into water vapour by evaporation. Water vapour can be brought back to water by condensation. water can also be changed in to ice by freezing.   2.     What is water cycle? Explain it with labelled diagram. The cycle that involves the change of water into water vapour and then into water again in nature is called the water cycle. It is the process by which water circulates between the sky and the earth in a continuous cycle.       ICE Heating     Water heating     Water vapour     Cooling Cooling     3.     What do you mean by purification of water? Impure water is n

  LESSON – 4 INSECTS   QUESTIONS & ANSWERS :-   1.   What are insects? Name some common insects found in our surroundings. Insects are small creatures that are found almost everywhere. They are different in size, colour and features. Some common insects like ants, bees, butterflies, beetles, mosquitoes, flies, honeybees and grasshoppers can be seen in our surroundings.   2.   What are the main parts of an insect’s body? Draw a labelled diagram of an insect’s body. An insect’s body is divided into three main parts – head, thorax and abdomen. 3.   What do you mean by life cycle? Draw a labelled diagram of the life cycle of a butterfly. Life cycle is the series of changes that happen to a living creature over the course of its lifetime.   4.   Name three insects which are useful to us and how? There are some insects which are very useful to us. a.   Honeybees give us honey and beeswax. Candles, soaps and crayons and made with beeswax. b.   Silkworms giv

  LESSON – 10 SUN AS A RESOURCE I.                   DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN:- 1.     Renewable and non-renewable source of energy Sources of energy that can be used again and again are called renewable source of energy. Natural resources such as coal, petroleum and natural gas form naturally beneath the earth very slowly. The supplies of all these sources are limited and once consumed cannot be made easily again. These are called non-renewable sources of energy.   2.     Solar energy and wind energy. The energy we get from the sun is called solar energy. We get energy from the sun mainly in the form of heat and light. Solar energy captured by solar panels, wind energy is used in windmills to grind gains and generate electricity.     II ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:-   1.     Why is sun said to be the main source of energy? The sun is the major source of energy on the earth. We get energy from the sun mainly in the form of heat and light. The energy we g
