A tester is used to check the conduction of electricity through two liquids, labelled A and B. It is found that the bulb of the tester glows brightly for liquid A while it glows very dimly for liquid B. You would conclude that (i) liquid A is a better conductor than liquid B. (ii) liquid B is a better conductor than liquid A. (iii) both liquids are equally conducting. (iv) conducting properties of liquid cannot be compared in this manner.

Boojho and Paheli performed experiments taking similar bulbs and cells but two different solutions A and B as shown in Fig.14.1. They found that the bulb in the setup A glows more brightly as compared to that of the setup B. You would conclude that.

Using the 'conduction tester on an objectit was found that the bulb begins to glow. Is that object a conductor or an insulator? Explain.

Two identical containers A and B are filled with two different liquids of equal masses. The level of the liquid in container A is found to be one-fourth of the level of the liquid in container B. What is the ratio of thedensity of two liquids? If the density of he liquid in the container A is 2 " g " cm^(-3) , then find the density of the mixture of the two liquids.

Fig. 12.10 A and B, show a bulb connected to a cell in two different ways. (i) What will be the direction of the current through the bulb in both the cases. (Q to P or P to Q) (ii) Will the bulb glow in both the cases? (iii)Does the brightness of the glowing bulb depend on the direction of current through it?

When extremely small particles X derived from the anther of a flower were suspended in a liquid Y and observed through a microscope, it was found that the particles X were moving throughout the liquid Y in a very zig-zag way. It was also observed that warmer the liquid Y, faster the particles X moved on its surface. What could particles X be ? (b) What do you think liquid Y is ? (c ) What is zig-zag movement of X known as ? (d) What is causing the zig-zag movement of particles X ? (e) Name the scientist who discovered this phenomenon. (f) What does this experiment tell us about the nature of liquid Y ?
