9. 20.Melting point of nano material decreases with decrease in size of particle.                                                  

Explanation

As the size of a particle decreases, the ratio of surface area to volume increases. This means that there is a larger surface area available for interactions with the surroundings. In the case of nano materials, this increased surface area leads to more atoms or molecules being present at the surface, which results in weaker intermolecular forces. Consequently, the particles require less energy to break these weak intermolecular forces and transition from a solid to a liquid state, resulting in a lower melting point. Therefore, the statement that the melting point of nano materials decreases with a decrease in size of the particle is true.

30. 49. ____ absorbs 100% light and hence, does not shine.               

Explanation

Gold nanoparticles absorb 100% of light and do not shine because of a phenomenon called surface plasmon resonance. When light interacts with gold nanoparticles, the electrons in the metal oscillate collectively, absorbing the light energy and converting it into heat. This absorption of light prevents the gold nanoparticles from reflecting or scattering light, resulting in their lack of shine. Zinc sulphide, titanium carbide, and cadmium sulphide do not have the same properties and therefore do not absorb 100% of light.

Explanation

Composite materials are made up of two or more different materials combined together to create a new material with improved properties. High red hardness refers to the ability of a material to maintain its hardness at high temperatures. This property is often desirable in composite materials as it allows them to withstand high temperatures without losing their hardness, making them suitable for applications in high-temperature environments.

74. 38    Which of the following is self extinguished when ignited?                                                                                                   

Explanation

PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) is a type of plastic that is self-extinguishing when ignited. This means that if PVC catches fire, it will stop burning on its own once the source of ignition is removed. This property is due to the presence of chlorine in PVC, which helps to suppress the combustion process. As a result, PVC is commonly used in applications where fire safety is important, such as electrical wiring and building materials.

75. 39    Which of the following is highly cross linked polymers?                                                                                      

Explanation

Melamine is a highly cross-linked polymer. It is made up of repeating units of formaldehyde and melamine, which are cross-linked together through chemical bonds. This cross-linking gives melamine its strong and durable properties, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications such as kitchenware, countertops, and laminates.

76. 65. which of the following is not a property of refractory material ?                  

Explanation

Refractory materials are known for their ability to withstand high temperatures and resist thermal conductivity. They are also characterized by their high strength and high melting point. However, refractory materials do not possess high magnetic induction. This property is more commonly associated with magnetic materials such as iron or steel. Therefore, option D, high magnetic induction, is not a property of refractory materials.

Submit
77.  51. ____ is formed by condensation polymerisation of phenol and formaldehyde in an acidic medium.                                                 

Explanation

Bakelite is formed by the condensation polymerization of phenol and formaldehyde in an acidic medium. This reaction results in the formation of a thermosetting plastic known as bakelite. Epoxy resins, polyesters, and PVC are formed by different polymerization processes and do not involve the condensation polymerization of phenol and formaldehyde.

Submit
78. 63. ____ are used in sealants, adhesive , lubricanct , medicines.                          

Explanation

Silicones are used in sealants, adhesive, lubricants, and medicines. They are polymers that are made up of silicon, oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen atoms. Silicones have a wide range of properties that make them useful in various applications. They have excellent heat resistance, water repellency, electrical insulation properties, and are chemically stable. These characteristics make silicones suitable for use in sealants to prevent leakage, adhesives to bond materials together, lubricants to reduce friction, and even in medical applications such as implants and drug delivery systems.

Submit
79. 43. ____ is used to form riffle barrel which is stronger and lighter.                                                                                                

Explanation

Glasses are used to form riffle barrel which is stronger and lighter. Glasses have a high strength-to-weight ratio, making them an ideal material for creating a strong and lightweight structure like a riffle barrel.

Submit
80. 44. _____ is a mixture of silica and basic oxides.              

Explanation

Glasses are a mixture of silica and basic oxides. Silica is the main component of glass, while basic oxides such as sodium oxide or calcium oxide are added to give glass its desired properties. Therefore, glasses can be considered as a mixture of silica and basic oxides.

Submit
81. 10.       ________ is formed by mixing hydrochloric acid, limestone and natural gas.                                                                                      

Explanation

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) is formed by mixing hydrochloric acid, limestone, and natural gas.

Submit
82. 1.       Which of the following is used in fluorescent light reflectors?                                                                                          

Explanation

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) is used in fluorescent light reflectors because it has good reflective properties and is resistant to heat and chemicals. It is also lightweight and easy to shape, making it suitable for use in reflectors. Polystyrene, elastomers, and nylons do not have the same reflective properties or resistance to heat and chemicals as PVC, which is why they are not used in fluorescent light reflectors.

Submit
83.      54. ____ is produced by condensation polymerisation between hexaethylene diamine and adipic acid.                                     

Explanation

Nylon is produced by condensation polymerization between hexaethylene diamine and adipic acid. This process involves the combination of these two monomers to form long chains of repeating units, resulting in the formation of nylon. Nylon is a synthetic polymer that is known for its strength, durability, and resistance to wear and tear. It is commonly used in the production of textiles, carpets, and various other products.
