Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution:
In open system there is flow of matter and energy in and out of the system or vice versa.
For example, an air compressor in which the air enters at a low pressure and exit at high pressure and there is energy interaction with the surrounding
Q3.Which among the following statement is correct?
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution:
All ores are minerals but vice versa is not true. Because ores are the minerals from which metal can be profitably extracted.
Q4.The total energy of an electron in the first excited state of the hydrogen atom is about −3.4 eV. What is the kinetic energy of the electron in this state?
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution:
Total energy of the electron, E = −3.4 eV
Kinetic energy of the electron is equal to the negative of the total energy.
K = −E = − (− 3.4) = +3.4 eV
Hence, the kinetic energy of the electron in the given state is +3.4 eV.
Q5.Dichloro-diphenyl-trichloro-ethane (DDT), plastic materials, heavy metals etc. belong to which of the following category of pollutants in environment :
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
DDT, plastic materials and heavy metals like cadmium, mercury and arsenic are not degradable by natural biological processes by bacteria or any other microbe. Therefore they are non-biodegradable.
