A child wanted to separate the mixture of dyes constituting a sample of ink. He marked a line by the ink on the filter paper and placed the filter paper in a glass containing water as shown in figure. The filter paper was removed when the water moved near the top of the filter paper. (a) What would you expect to see, if the ink contains three different coloured components? (b) Name the technique used by the child. (c) Suggest one more application of this technique.

A 0.60 kg sample of water and a sample of ice are placed in two compartmetnts A and B separated by a conducting wall, in a thermally insulated container. The rate of heat transfer from the water to the ice through the conducting wall is constant P, until thermal equilibrium is reached. The temperature T of the liquid water and the ice are given in graph as functions of time t. Temperature of the compartments remain homogeneous during whole heat transfer process. Given specific heat of ice =2100 J//kg-K , specific heat of water =4200 J//kg-K , and latent heat of fusion of ice =3.3xx10^5 J//kg . Initial mass of the ice in the container equal to

Three beakers labelled as A, B and C each containing 25 mL of water were taken. A small amount of NaOH, anhydrous CuSO_(4) and NaCl were added to the beakers A, B and C respectively. It was observed that there was an increase in the temperature of the solutions contained in beakers A and B, whereas in case of beaker C, the temperature of the solution falls. Which one of the followig statement (s) is (are) correct? 1. In beakers A and B, exothermic process has occurred. 2. In beakers A and B, endothermic process has occurred. 3. In beaker C, exothermic process has occurred. 4. In beaker C, endothermic process has occurred.
