Education Zone



vii) Identify the process given in following passage and draw neat labelled diagram showing the process.

Electrolysis of molten mixture of alumina (melting point > 2000°C) is done in a steel tank. The tank has a graphite lining on the inner side. This lining does the work of a cathode. A set of graphite rods dipped in the molten electrolyte works as anode. Cryolite ( Al ) and fluorspar (Ca ) are added in the mixture to lower its melting point up to 1000°C.

Q4)   Attempt any one of the following                                                       [5]

1)   Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.

If heat is exchanged between a hot and cold object, the temperature of the cold object goes on increasing due to gain of energy and the temperature of the hot object goes on decreasing due to loss of energy.
The change in temperature continues till the temperatures of both the objects attain the same value. In this process, the cold object gains heat energy and the hot object loses heat energy. If the system of both the objects is isolated from the environment by keeping it inside a heat resistant box, then no energy can flow from inside the box or come into the box.


a) Heat is transferred from where to where?                                                       (1)
b) Which principle do we learn about from this process?                                   (1)
c) How will you state the principle briefly?                                                        (2)
d) Which property of the substance is measured using this principle?                (1)

ii) Observe the following figure and answer the questions.

a) Which optical instrument shows arrangement of lenses as shown in the figure?    (1)
b) Write in brief the working of this optical instrument.                                              (2)
c) How can we get different magnifications in this optical instrument?                      (1)
d) Draw the figure again and labelled it properly                                                         (1)
