Ques 11: Why are decomposition reactions called the opposite of combination reactions? Write equations for these reactions.

Ans 11: Decomposition reactions are those in which a complex compound breaks down to form two or more substances. These reactions require a source of energy such as heat, light, etc. to proceed. Thus, they are the exact opposite of combination reactions in which two or more substances combine to give a new substance with the release of energy.

Ques : 2.0 gram of a metal burst in oxygen give 3.2 gram of its oxide. 1.42 gram of the same metal heat in steam give 2.27 gram of its oxide which toys shown by this data?  Ans : In the first compound, 3.2 gram of metal oxide contained 2.0 gram of metal 100 gram of metal oxide contained metal =2.0/3.2 × 100= 62.5 g :· % metal in first compound= 62.5% In the second compound, 2.27 gram of metal oxide contains metal = 1.42 gram 100 gram of metal oxide contains the metal= 1.42/2.27×100=62.55 gram :· % metal in first compound= 62.55% Thus, the percentage of metal in metal oxide obtained from to experiment is nearly same. Hence, the above data illustrate the law of constant composition.  <<   Previous                                                       Next   >>

 The solar system consists of the Sun, which is a star at its center, and all the celestial bodies bound by its gravitational pull. These bodies include planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and other objects. Key Components of the Solar System: The Sun : The Sun is the center of the solar system and contains about 99.86% of its mass. It is a star primarily composed of hydrogen and helium, providing the heat and light that sustains life on Earth. Planets : There are eight recognized planets in the solar system: Mercury : The closest planet to the Sun, known for extreme temperature variations and no atmosphere. Venus : Similar in size to Earth but with a thick, toxic atmosphere and surface temperatures hot enough to melt lead. Earth : The third planet from the Sun, the only known planet to support life, with water and a breathable atmosphere. Mars : Known as the Red Planet, it has a cold, dry surface and signs of past water. Jupiter : The largest planet, a gas giant, w...

                          Data Mining Need for Data Mining Data mining is the process of extracting meaningful patterns, trends, and knowledge from large datasets. Its need arises from: Data Explosion : Organizations generate massive amounts of data that need to be analyzed effectively. Decision-Making : It supports informed decision-making by identifying hidden patterns and correlations. Competitive Advantage : Helps businesses optimize processes, enhance customer relationships, and forecast trends. Automation : Reduces manual data analysis efforts and increases efficiency. Problem-Solving : Detects anomalies, predicts outcomes, and aids in problem-solving across domains. Data Mining Tasks Classification : Assigning items to predefined categories (e.g., spam email detection). Clustering : Grouping similar data points together without predefined labels (e.g., customer segmentation). Regression : Predicting ...
