Q44Written answer

How does sprinkling of salt help in clearing the snow-covered roads in hilly areas? Explain the phenomenon involved in the process.

Show solutionHide solution
Worked solution

Salt is a de-icing agent and can be used to melt ice. If the freezing point is lowered the ice starts melting. So the addition of salt to snow reduces the freezing point from O℃ to lower.

Q45Written answer

What is a “semi-permeable membrane”?

Show solutionHide solution
Worked solution

A semipermeable membrane is a membrane that allows only the flow of solvent molecules but not solute molecules. Cellulose acetate and phospholipid bilayer in biological cells are the examples for semi-permeable membrane.

Q46Written answer

Give an example of a material used for making semipermeable membrane for carrying out reverse osmosis.
