Question 1:

 ...a mixture of gases.

• Correct Answer: Diagram C

• Reasoning: A mixture contains two or more different substances that are not chemically bonded together. Diagram C shows separate individual orange atoms and individual blue atoms, representing a physical mixture of two different elements.

Question 2:

...a gaseous compound.

• Correct Answer: Diagram D

• Reasoning: A compound consists of two or more different elements that are chemically bonded together in a fixed ratio. Diagram D shows molecules made of one orange atom bonded to one blue atom (diatomic molecules of a compound).

Question 3:

...chlorine gas (Cl₂)

• Correct Answer: Diagram B

• Reasoning: Chlorine gas is a diatomic element, meaning it consists of molecules made of two identical chlorine atoms. Diagram B shows pairs of identical blue atoms bonded together.

(Note: Diagram A represents a pure atomic element, as it shows single, individual blue atoms).

Question 4:

Based on the particle diagrams provided:

Diagram X shows two different types of molecules. One type consists of two orange atoms bonded together (an element), and the other type consists of two blue atoms bonded together (a different element). Since it contains two different pure substances physically mixed together, Diagram X represents two elements.

Diagram Y shows molecules that are all identical. Each molecule consists of one orange atom bonded to one blue atom. Because all the molecules are the same and made of different types of atoms chemically bonded, Diagram Y represents a compound.

Comparing this to the options in the table:

• A: Diagram X represents two elements; Diagram Y represents a mixture. (Incorrect, Y is a compound)

• B: Diagram X represents two elements; Diagram Y represents a compound. (Correct)

• C: Diagram X represents two compounds; Diagram Y represents a mixture. (Incorrect, X is elements, Y is a compound)

• D: Diagram X represents two compounds; Diagram Y represents a compound. (Incorrect, X is elements)

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Question 5:

The correct answer is C. a mixture.

Explanation:
Filtration is a physical method used to separate substances based on differences in particle size (typically separating a solid from a liquid).

• A mixture consists of two or more substances that are physically combined and not chemically bonded. Because they are not chemically bonded, they retain their individual properties and can be separated by physical means like filtration (e.g., separating sand from water).

• An element and a compound are pure substances. A pure substance has a uniform and definite composition. You cannot separate a pure substance into simpler components using physical methods like filtration; you would need chemical reactions to break them down.

• A molecule is simply a group of atoms bonded together (which can be an element or a compound) and is a structural unit, not a type of mixture that is separated by filtration.

Question 6:

Based on the apparatus shown in the image, the correct answer is D. distillation.

Reasoning:
The diagram shows a standard laboratory distillation setup. The key components include:

• A round-bottom flask heated on a stand, which contains the mixture (sea water).

• A thermometer attached to the top to measure the temperature of the vapor.

• A condenser (the slanted tube with water flowing around it, indicated by the blue arrows) which cools the vapor back into a liquid.

• A receiving flask at the end to collect the purified liquid (pure water).

This process involves boiling the water to turn it into vapor (leaving the salt behind), then cooling that vapor back into liquid water. This is the definition of distillation. The other options—filtration, evaporation, and crystallisation—either use different apparatus or do not involve the condensing step shown here.

Question 7:

Chalk from a mixture of chalk and water.
Answer: filtration
Chalk is an insoluble solid, so it can be separated from water by filtering it out.

Question 8:

Kerosene from crude oil.
Answer: fractional distillation
Crude oil is a mixture of hydrocarbons with different boiling points, and kerosene is separated by fractional distillation.

Question 9:

Copper(II) sulfate from copper(II) sulfate solution.
Answer: crystallization
Copper(II) sulfate is a soluble solid; it can be recovered from its solution by evaporating the water and allowing the crystals to form.

Question 10:

The correct answer is B. drew the start line in ink.

Explanation:
In paper chromatography, the start line (baseline) must be drawn with a pencil, not ink. If drawn in ink, the ink itself will dissolve in the solvent and move up the paper during the experiment, contaminating the results and making it impossible to distinguish the colors from the flowers.

The other options are actually correct procedures:

• A. Putting a lid on the beaker is done to prevent the solvent from evaporating and to maintain a saturated atmosphere.

• C. The start line must be above the water level to ensure the spots don't dissolve directly into the solvent.

• D. You can place multiple spots on the same piece of chromatography paper as long as they are spaced out on the same baseline.
