How would you appreciate the efforts of human beings to discover an alternate energy source like coal and petroleum for their daily use? [Refer to TB page 109 Q12] A. It is highly appreciable that humans discovered alternate energy source like coal and petroleum for the human needs. It helped a lot for the development. SESSION 2. COAL, PETROLEUM AND NATURAL GAS 14

Coal and petroleum are exhaustible resources. These are the resources that are widely used in our daily life. Earlier people used kiln using wood for cooking food and for travelling they used horses and bullock carts. There was no electricity, so their life was miserable. The wood they were using produced lot of pollution. So they required a fuel not only for cooking purpose but also for travelling long distances. In 19th century, the useof coal as fuel was the major thing in development of human beings. Steam engine which used coal was invented during industrial revolution. Petroleum was started as fuel in in 1859 then it was used everywhere in the world because it was better fuel than coal and less pollutant. To meet future energy needs scientists are working for alternate energy sources. Bio–fuel is one of the alternate resources which is renewable. Scientists have also developed methods to harness solar energy, wind energy, tidal energy, etc. 2.8 Application to Daily Life, Concern to Bio Diversity Q1. Assume that you are a driver, what measures do you take to save petrol and diesel? [Refer to TB page 109 Q15] A. · Turning off vehicle regularly. · Driving at economical speed. · Stopping engine at signals and during waiting period. · Ensuring correct pressure in tyres. · Ensuring regular maintenance of vehicle. Q2. \"The use of CNG and LPG as fuels for automobile helps us to minimize air pollution and maintaining eco-logical balance\". Do you agree with this statement? If yes, explain. [Refer to TB page 109 Q17] A. Yes, I agree with the statement because they reduce pollution. They neither emit smoke nor harmful gases. So their use has no adverse effect on ecological imbalance as the organisms living in that area do not get disturbed. Q3. “Crude oil and refined fuel when spill into the sea from tanker or ships by accident.” Discuss the consequences of this on the environment. [Refer to TB page 109 Q16] SESSION 2. COAL, PETROLEUM AND NATURAL GAS 15

A. Crude oil and refined fuel spills from tanker or ships by accident cause damage to natural ecosystem. This can kill sea birds, mammals, shell–fish and other organisms. CONSEQUENCES: Thousands of birds, fishes, sea animals and seals die due to spilling of oil which pollute the natural ecosystem of sea or ocean. About 2 million tonnes of oil spills into the sea every year from oil tankers, mostly during collisions or other accidents. When oil is discharged into the sea and washed up on shorelines they harm many birds and creatures. —— CCE Based Practice Questions —— AS1-Conceptual Understanding Very Short Answer Type Questions 1.

2. Types of Combustion 1.2 Terminology i. Magnesium ribbon – A light, silvery–white, moderately hard metallic element that in ribbon or powder form burns with a brilliant white flame. ii. Fire extinguisher – A portable device that discharges a jet of water, foam, gas, or other material to extinguish a fire. iii. CNG – It stands for Compressed Natural Gas. Compressed natural gas, or CNG, is natural gas storred under pressure which remains clear, odourless, and non–corrosive. 1.3 Key Concepts i. We use different types of materials around us as fuels in our daily life. ii. Combustion: A chemical process in which a material reacts with oxygen present in the air to generate heat is called combustion. iii. Combustion is of different types –rapid, slow, spontaneous, and explosion. iv. Ignition temperature, a combustible substance, and a supporter of combustion are necessary for combustion. v. Ignition temperature: The temperature at which a substance catches fire is called ignition temperature. vi. Inflammable material: The substances which have very low ignition temperature and catch fire easily are known as inflammable substances. vii. Spontaneous combustion: The type of combustion in which material burns into flames without the application of any apparent cause is called spontaneous combustion. SESSION 1. COMBUSTION, TYPES OF COMBUSTION AND IGNITION TE... 27

viii. Rapid combustion: The combustion which takes place on heating and burns vigor- ously till the availability of fuel. ix. Slow combustion is a form of combustion which takes place at low temperatures. x. Materials are of two types combustible and non–combustible. Oxygen is necessary for combustion. xi. Combustible materials: Liable to catch fire and burn easily. xii. Non–combustible materials: Materials which can’t catch fire and burn. 1.4 Conceptual Understanding Q1. Give four examples of combustible materials. [Refer to TB page 120 Q1] A. Petrol, kerosene, coal, wood. Q2. Give four examples of non–combustible materials. [Refer to TB page 120 Q2] A. Glass, pebble, iron, stone. 1.5 Asking Questions and Making Hypothesis Q1. What would happen if oxygen stops to support combustion? Make a guess. And if that is the situation, for what other works fuels are useful? [Refer to TB page 120 Q10] A. If oxygen stops supporting combustion, the burning process also stops. Then fossil fuels will not be of any use for production of heat, energy and electricity. So, we have to prefer alternative source of energy like solar energy, wind energy, tidal energy etc. SESSION 1. COMBUSTION, TYPES OF COMBUSTION AND IGNITION TE... 28

1.6 Experimentation and Field Investigation Q1. Project work : Collect information about the experiments of Joseph Priestly. Write a two page report describing Priestly’s experiments proving that oxygen is needed for burning. [Refer to TB page 121 Q4, Try These] A. Collect information from the internet to make the project report. [Reference Answer] – Joseph Priestly performed the following experiment to prove that oxygen is needed for burning. Priestley, first lit a candle and placed a glass jar over it and watched as the flame gradually died out. Priestley reasoned that something in the air was necessary to keep the flame burning. Priestley then placed fresh mint leaves underneath the jar and allowed the entire setup to sit for a few days. After few days, Priestley found that he could relight the candle and it would burn for a while. Priestley concluded that the plant had produced the substance required for burning. For knowing the substance which is in air, produced by plant and which is used for burning, he did another experiment in which Priestley put a mouse under the jar and waited to see what would happen. Sadly, the mouse eventually died. Later, Priestley put a mouse under the jar with fresh mint leaves and waited to see what would happen. To his surprise, both the mouse and plant survived for quite some time. Then he concluded that the substance which is used for burning the candle is same which is used for the survival of mouse. By this way Joseph Priestly proved that the important substance produced by the plant is used for burning the candle and surviving of mouse is oxygen.] SESSION 1.

SESSION 2. FUELS, FLAME AND STRUCTURE OF A FLAME 33

2.2 Terminology i. Non Luminous Zone – The non–luminous zone is the zone of complete combustion. It looks like an “aura” formed around the candle and is almost invisible. It is the hottest zone as “around” the candle flame, the ample presence of oxygen aids in complete combustion. This zone is blue in colour. ii. Luminous Zone – The luminous zone is the zone which is moderately hot with limited oxygen supply as the molten wax further vaporizes and burns in the presence of oxygen and soot particles. The colour of this zone is yellowish. iii. Wax – Any of various natural, oily or greasy heat sensitive substances, consisting of hydrocarbons or esters of fatty acids that are insoluble in water but soluble in nonpolar organic solvents. 2.3 Key Concepts i. Fuels are the materials which liberate heat and light on burning. ii. Fuels can be solid, liquid or gaseous in nature. SESSION 2. FUELS, FLAME AND STRUCTURE OF A FLAME 34

iii. Control of fire can be done by cutting the supply of one of the required materials: fuel, air or heat. iv. Flame is a zone of oxidation. v. Explosion: The process by which huge amounts of sound and heat are released at a time. vi. Calorific Value: The amount of energy liberated by complete combustion of 1 kg of a fuel. 2.4 Conceptual Understanding Q1. Why should not we store spirit or petrol near our living place? [Refer to TB page 120 Q3] A. Petrol and spirit are highly volatile and inflammable. They turn into gas at room temper- ature. Hence, they catch fire easily and may cause fire accidents. Q2. Give an example of a good fuel. How do you choose that fuel? Explain. [Refer to TB page 120 Q4] A. Natural gas is an example of a good fuel. It is an ideal fuel because it: i. Does not leave ash. ii. Has high calorific value. iii. Burns with smokeless flame. iv. Readily available. v. Does not pollute the environment. Q3. The oil fires should not be sprayed with water. Why? [Refer to TB page 120 Q5] A. Oil being lighter floats on water and causes severe damage. So oil fire should be extin- guished by using substances called foamite. Or Water is heavier than the oil. So it sinks below the oil and oil keeps burning on the top and thus causes severe damage. So oil fire should be extinguished by using substances called foamite. Q4. What precautions are to be taken while pouring water on fire? [Refer to TB page 120 Q6] A. We should make sure that any electrical equipment is not on fire. Water is also not suitable for fires involving oil and petrol. SESSION 2. FUELS, FLAME AND STRUCTURE OF A FLAME 35

Q5. Why a wick is not used in gas burners? [Refer to TB page 120 Q7] A. Kerosene oil and molten wax rise through the wick and become gas and form flames. A fuel catches fire immediately if it is in the form of gas. So wick is not used as a gas burner. Q6. Water is not used to control fires involving electrical equipment. Why? [Refer to TB page 120 Q8] A. The risk of electrical shock is too high if water is used as a fire extinguisher in the case of electrical fires as impure water is good conductor of electricity. So carbon dioxide or carbon tetrachloride are used to control fires involving electrical equipment. Q7. It is difficult to burn a heap of green leaves but not heap of dry leaves? Explain why. [Refer to TB page 121 Q1, Try These] A. The ignition temperature of green leaves is more that of dry leaves, because green leaves have more water content. The substances which have low ignition temperatures can catch fire easily. So it is easier to burn a heap of dry leaves. 2.5 Asking Questions and Making Hypothesis Q1. Give supportive arguments for both the statements [Refer to TB page 120 Q9] (1) fire is useful. (2) fire is harmful. A. Fire is useful: It is necessary for various daily activities like cooking food, giving light. Fire is utilized in making different types of articles with metals and plastics. The heat energy produced from fire of coal used to produce electricity. Fire is harmful: Fire liberates smoke and cause pollution. Wildfire in forests causes damage to living organisms in the forest. It can burn huts, hay stacks etc., and can cause much destruction. Q2. In a few years, the fuels on earth are will be exhausted. Think, what would happen to human civilization? [Refer to TB page 121 Q2, Try These] SESSION 2. FUELS, FLAME AND STRUCTURE OF A FLAME 36

A. Fossil fuels are going to be exhausted in future. Humans have to depend upon natural source of energy like solar, wind and hydroelectricity. Human civilization may regress. If there were no fossil fuels, human life in this world would be significantly different. The earth contains fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum and natural gas. They create elec- trical power, heat houses, power vehicles and transform the environment. Our world is dominated by fossil fuels. They make our electricity, heat our homes, power our cars and are changing our climate. The consequences of lack of fuel – 1. Without fossil fuel life would be complicated and very difficult. 2. There would be no fuel for cooking. 3. There would be no fuel for transport. There would be no fuel for any machinery. 4. There would be no fuel for electricity. Q3. Use of more fuels in our daily life causes air pollution and is harmful to human being and other life on earth. Suggest some remedies to avoid this. [Refer to TB page 121 Q3, Try These] A. Burning of carbon containing fuels releases ash and other harmful pollutants. Combus- tion of fuels adds CO2 into the environment leading to greenhouse effect which causes global warming. Wind energy, tidal energy, solar energy, etc. release fewer pollutants. If the distance is less, it is better to go by bicycle. Increase the use of unleaded petrol and using catalytic converter in vehicles. Q4. Let us assume that you are on the moon. If you try to focus sunlight on a paper using magnifying glass, does the paper catch fire? or not? Why? [Refer to TB page 120 Q11] A. No, it does not catch fire. The three conditions required to produce fire are: i. Presence of oxygen ii. Ignition temperature iii. Presence of combustion material On moon there is no oxygen. Hence it does not catch fire.

2.6 Experimentation and Field Investigation Q1. Can you heat water in a paper vessel? How is it possible? [Refer to TB page 120 Q12] A. Yes, we can heat water in a paper vessel. The heat supplied to the paper cup is trans- ferred to water by conduction. So in the presence of water the ignition temperature of the cup is not reached. Hence the paper does not burn, only the water is heated. Q2. “Is combustion possible without the supply of oxygen?\" Discuss with your teacher. [Refer to TB page 120 Q13] A. No, combustion is not possible without oxygen. Burn a candle. Now put a beaker inverted on to it. You will see that the flame flickers and then it will extinguish. As the inverted beaker has cut off the supply of oxygen the flame was extinguished. This experiment proves that oxygen is necessary for combustion. Q3. Explain giving reasons: In which of the following situations water will get heated in a shorter time? [Refer to TB page 121 Q14] a) Srikar kept the water beaker near the wick in the yellow part of a candle flame. b) Sonu kept water beaker in the outer most part of the flame. A. Water beaker (Sonu’s) which is in the outer most part of the flame will be heated in a shorter time. Because in the outer zone complete combustion takes place and it is the hottest zone. 2.7 Information Skills and Projects Q1. List the ways adopted by fire fighters to combat fires. [Refer to TB page 120 Q15] A. Using water: Water is the most common fire extinguisher. It can be used only when materials like wood, paper are on fire. We cannot use water if electrical equipments, oil and petroleum are on fire. Using carbon dioxide: Carbon dioxide is the best fire extinguisher used to put out the fires caused by oil, petrol and electrical equipment. CO2 is heavier than air and it covers the fire. Hence it cuts off the oxygen supply. SESSION 2. FUELS, FLAME AND STRUCTURE OF A FLAME 38

Q2. Collect information available on different fuels. Find out the cost per kg. Compare the cost with calorific value. Prepare a report on that. [Refer to TB page 121 Q16] A. S.No. NAME OF THE COST PER CALORIFIC FUEL kg VALUE 1 Petrol Rs.80/L 45000 kJ/kg 2 Diesel Rs.58/L 45000 kJ/kg 3 Kerosene Rs.20/L 45000 kJ/kg 4 LPG Rs. 67/kg 55000 kJ/kg 5 CNG Rs. 49/kg 50000 kJ/kg REPORT: The calorific value of petrol is more and cost is also high. The calorific value of kerosene is high and cost is low. The cost of fuel may change with time and place. Q3. Collect the information about annual fuel consumption in different parts of the world. How many years more the fossil fuels last? Make a poster with this information and issue an appeal to save fuel. [Refer to TB page 121 Q5, Try These] A. Students’ activity. Suggestions for poster – i. Save fuel save future. ii. Save fuel prevent energy crisis. iii. Energy saver saves environment. According to the article Regional energy use (kWh/capita &TWh) and growth 1990–2008 (%) ”If the fuel is used at this rate it is going to exhaust within 150 years.” SESSION 2.

2.9 Application to Daily Life, Concern to Bio Diversity Q1. How do you organize your daily works with fuels to conserve bio–diversity? [Refer to TB page 121 Q19] A. Fossil fuels burn and release pollutant gases and ash into the atmosphere. Instead of fossil fuels we should use renewable sources like solar energy, wind energy and other renewable sources. They do not pollute the environment. Due to fossil fuels some species are disappearing. Using bicycles for short distances and usage of renewable resources make the environment pollutant free. Q2. How do you feel about “Fuels have become a part of human life”? [Refer to TB page 121 Q20] A. Without fuels there is no human life. i. To cook food we are using fuels. ii. We are getting energy from food. iii. Electric power makes us feel comfortable. iv. We are using fuels in automobiles. So, it is appropriate to say that fuels have become a part of human life. —— CCE Based Practice Questions —— AS1-Conceptual Understanding Very Short Answer Type Questions 1. Fill in the blanks.
