During a chemical reaction both the form ‘and composition of matter are changed. Old substances are converted to new substances, Which have unique physical and chemical properties of their own. Chemical reactions can be double displacement reactions which have the general form: AB+CD-> AD +CB Here AB and CD are usually aqueous ionic compounds (or acids) consisting of aqueous ions (A* and B°, Ct and O°). When a double displacement reaction occurs, the cations ‘and anions switch partners, resulting in the formation of two new ionic compounds AD and CB, one of which is in the solid state. This solid product is an insoluble fonic compound called a precipitate 4 ‘Aand Care Cations (Positive ions) Band D are Anions (Negative ions) Double Displacement Reaction (A) When hydrogen sulphide gas is passed through a blue solution of copper sulphate, a black precipitate of copper sulphide is obtained and the sulphuric acid so formed remains in the solution.

Identify X,YandZ. 38. Total internal reflection is defined as the phenomenon which occurs when the light rays travel from 0 more optically denser medium to a less optically denser medium. Consider a ray of light passing from a medium of water to that of air. Light ray will be refracted at the junction separating the two media, Since it passes from a medium of a higher refractive index to that having a lower refiactive index the refracted light ray bends away from the normal. At a specific angle of incidence, the incident ray of light is refracted in such a way that it passes along the surface of the water. This particular‘angle of incidence is called the critical angle as shown in the figure below. When the angle of incidence is greater than the ertical angle, the incident ray is reflected back to the medium. We call this phenomenon total internal reflection. An application of this ‘phenomenon is found in optical fibres. An optical fibre consists of (Q) Core - Thin glass center of the fiber where the light travels. (2) Cladding - Outer optical material surrounding the core that reflects the light back into the core (3) Buffer coating- Plastic coating that protects the fiber from damage and moisture The core has higher refractive index than the cladding. When the incident ray falls on the cladding, it suffers total internal reflection as the angle formed by the ray is greater than the eritical angle. Outer Jacket Primary Buffer Coating of Non Refracting material refracting material (Glass) (Plosti) Cladding core Entering ight Emerging ight (A) How will the speed of light change when light is incident on cladding of an optical fibre? (©) The speed of light in a certain material is 50% ofits speed in a vacuum, What is the refractive index of this material? (©) Whenever light travels from one medium to another, what is the angle of refraction? OR (©) What are the two conditions for total internal reflection of light? 39. We all are aware of the heating effects of electric current. The heat is produced in a conductor due to the collision of electrons in the conductor. Have you ever wondered about the amount of heat generated during the flow of current through a wire and the parameters ‘and conditions it is based upon? It was the English physicist James Prescott Joule who discovered in 1840 that the ‘amount of heat per sécond that develops in a Wire carrying a current is proportional to the electrical resistance of the wire and the square of the current. He determined that the heat evolved per second is equivalent to the electric power absorbed, or the power loss. (A) How is the heat produced in a resistor related to ‘I, "R’ ond t according to Joule's law of heating? (®) Find the heat energy produced in resistance of 5 © when 3 A current flows through it for 2 minutes. (©) Two conducting wires of the same material and of equal lengths ond equal diameters are first connected in series and then in parallel in © cireult across the same potential difference.
