When hydrogen sulphide gas is passed through a blue solution of copper sulphate, a black participate of copper sulphide is obtained and the sulphuric acid so formed remains in the solution . The reaction is an example of a :


A. Combination reaction B. Displacement reaction


C. Decomposition reaction D. Double displacement


D

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy through light or heat and there is one product formed and hence it is a combination reaction.


OR


D


Double displacement is a type of chemical reaction where two compounds react, and the positive ions (cation) and the negative ions (anion) of the two reactants switch places, forming two new compounds or products.

Human body is made up of five important components, of which water which the main component. Food as well as potable water are essential for every human being. The food is obtained from plants through agriculture. Pesticides are being used extensively for a high yield in the fields. These pesticides are absorbed by the plants from the soil along with water and minerals and from the water bodies these pesticides are taken up by the aquatic animals and plants. As these chemicals are not biodegradable, The maximum concentration of these chemicals gets accumulated in our bodies and greatly affects the health of our mind and body

(a) Why is the maximum concentration of pesticides found in human beings ?


(b) Give one method which could be applied to reduce our intake of pesticides through food to some extent.


(c) Various steps in a food chain represent :


(a) Food web (b) Trophic level


(c) Ecosystem (d) Biomagnification


(d) With regard to various food chains operating in an ecosystem, man is a :


(a) Consumer (b) Producer


(c) Producer and consumer (d) Producer and decomposer
