A) We cannot live without oxygen.
B) We use it to get energy from food.
C) Oxygen is colorless gas.
D) Oxygen has bad smell.
Q2–Which one of the below is not correct for carbon dioxide (CO2)?
A) It is invisible gas.
B) It is more dense than air.
C) We need it for respiration.
D) It is put into soft drinks to make them fizzy.

Q5 – What are the properties of water?
1. Pure water is transparent liquid, colorless, tasteless, and odorless.
2. Pure water boils at 100°C and Freezes at 0°C under 1 atmosphere
pressure.
3. Density of water is 1 g/cm3
4. Pure water is poor conductor of electricity.
5. Water is a universal solvent. It is able to dissolve a large number
of different substances such as table salt (NaCl), sugar (C6H12O6),
oxygen (O2), carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrogen (N2) etc.
Q6 – How can water be separated into its components?
Electrolysis machine is filled with acidic water after that electric current is
passed through the solution. Water can be separated by this process into
hydrogen and oxygen gases. Oxygen gas (O2) is collected at the anode and
hydrogen gas (H2) is ..collected at the cathode
Q7 – What is the formula of water?
Chemical formula of water : H2O
As a chemical compound, a water molecule contains one oxygen
and two hydrogen atoms.
Q8 – Can pure water conduct electricity?
Pure water is poor conductor of electricity but when salt or sulfuric
acid is added, it becomes good conductor of electricity.

Q9 – Explain the greenhouse effect.
During the day sunlight warms up the Earth's surface. At night much
of the heat escapes but the gases in the atmosphere trap some of it,
thus keeping the Earth warm. This is called the greenhouse effect be
cause it is like what happens in a greenhouse. global warming may
.cause changes to the climate and rising sea levels
Q10 – What is the function of ozone layer?
Ozone is essential for life on Earth because it blocks out more than
95% of the Sun's ultraviolet rays.
Q11 – How can trash harm the organisms that live in the oceans?
1. Most plastic material that is thrown into the oceans does not break
down for thousands of years. Animals can mistake plastic
material for food and choke on it.
2. Sometimes, the oil spills out into the oceans . Oil is poisonous to
plants and animals.
Q12 – Write your own definition for nonpoint-source pollution.
Nonpoint-source pollution : is pollution that comes from many
sources instead of a single place.
Q13 – How is point-source pollution different from nonpoint-source
pollution?
Pollution that can be traced to one source is called pointsource
pollution.
Pollution that cannot be traced to a single source is called non-
point-source pollution.
