(a)
Interpretation:
The reason for the addition of cake alum during water purification is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Alum is a chemical compound, usually a hydrated double sulfate salt of aluminium with the general formula
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason for the difficulty in the use of water that contains large amounts of
Concept introduction:
Water that contains high mineral content is known as hard water. It is formed when water percolates through deposits of chalk, gypsum that is made up of calcium and magnesium carbonates, bicarbonates and sulfates.
(c)
Interpretation:
The meaning of “reverse” in reverse osmosis is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The osmotic pressure is defined as the measure of the tendency of a solution to take in pure solvent via osmosis. It is defined as the minimum pressure that is to be applied to the solution to prevent the inward flow of the pure solvent across the semipermeable membrane. Osmosis occurs when two solutions have different concentrations of solute and are separated by a semipermeable membrane.
(d)
Interpretation:
The reason for the use of ozone instead of chlorine as a disinfectant is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Disinfectants are antimicrobial agents that are applied to the non-living things so as to destroy microorganisms. These are different from other antimicrobial agents such as antibiotics and antiseptics because these are applied to living beings. Bleach, alcohol, thymol, and chloramine are some of the examples of disinfectants.
