- Question
Which of the following carbon compounds is used as a fire- extinguisher?
Options- A. Carbon disulphide
- B. Chloroform
- C. Carbon tetrachloride
- D. Methyl ene chloride
- Correct Answer
- Carbon tetrachloride
ExplanationVapour of carbon tetra chloride is non-inflammable and is heavier than air. Hence it is used as a fire extinguisher under the trade name of pyrene.

Correct Answer: Real gases
Correct Answer: Silver nitrate
Explanation:
Silver nitrate is the basic substance from which silver bromide is obtained. The photographic films are impregnated with the light sensitive AgBr.
Correct Answer: loss of electron
Correct Answer: Becquerel
Correct Answer: stream of electrons
Correct Answer: Al3+ ion
Correct Answer: G.M.counter
Correct Answer: Zirconium
Correct Answer: Wasshing soda
Explanation:
Hardness can be removed by adding sodium carbonate (washing soda) or by passing the water through an ion-exchange column.
Hardness in water is caused by dissolved magnesium ions and calcium ions. These can get into the water when it comes into contact with limestone and other rocks that contain calcium compounds. This can happen, for example, when rainwater flows over these rocks on its way to a reservoir.
Hardness in water is of two types. They are :
1. Temporary hardness
2. Permanent hardness
1. Temporary hardness:: Temporary hardness is caused by dissolved calcium hydrogen carbonate.
2. Permanent hardness:: Permanent hardness is caused by dissolved calcium sulfate. Unlike temporary hardness, it is not removed by boiling the water.
Correct Answer: Bauxite
