Answer:- Yellow precipitate is formed. It is precipitation reaction.
Pb (NO3)2 (aq) + 2KI ® Pbl2 + 2KNO3
10. Which products will be obtained when lead nitrate is heated simply? Write balanced chemical equation for the reaction.
Answer: -
2Pb( NO3)2(s) ® 2PbO(s) + 4NO2(g) + O2(g)
11. when an iron nail is dipped in copper sulphate solution?
Answer. It is because displacement reaction takes place.
12. Why are decomposition reactions called the opposite of combination reactions? Write equations for these reactions.
Answer. In decomposition reaction, a compound is broken down into simpler compounds or elements, e.g.
CuCO3(s) ® CuO(s) + CO2 (g)
Combination reaction is a reaction in which two or more elements or compounds combine to form a new compound, e.g.
N2 (g) + 3H2 ® 2NH3 (g)
Thus, decomposition and combination reactions are opposite to each other.

Prevention from rancidity:-
(i) Antioxidants
(ii) airtight container in refrigerator.
15. A solution of substance ‘X’ is used for white washing. What is the substance ‘X’? State the chemical reaction of ‘X’ with water.
Answer. ‘X’ is calcium oxide (CaO).
CaO(s) + H2O(l ) ® Ca (OH )aq) + heat
16. Define combination reaction. Give one example of a combination reaction which is also exothermic.
Answer. A reaction in which two elements or compounds combine to form a single compound is called combination reaction.
CaO(s) + H2O(l ) ® Ca (OH )aq) + heat
17. (a) Why is respiration considered as an exothermic reaction?
(b) Identify the substance that is oxidized and reduced in the following reaction.
CaO(s) + Zn(s) ® Cu(s) + ZnO(s)
Answer. (a) It is because heat is evolved during respiration.
(b) Zn is getting oxidised, CuO is getting reduced.
18. Translate the following statements into chemical equations and then balance them.
(a) Hydrogen gas combines with nitrogen to form ammonia.
(b) Hydrogen sulphide gas burns in air to give water and Sulphur dioxide.
