Plants make glucose in photosynthesis. Why is the starch test done to identify whether plants have photosynthesized?

  • Glucose produced in photosynthesis is quickly used or converted in the plant for energy or growth.

  • Plants store excess glucose as starch, which is more stable.

  • Testing for starch is therefore an indirect way to show that photosynthesis has occurred.

Give three features of bases

  • They have a bitter taste

  • They are slippery in touch

  • They turn Red litmus blue

  • They liberate OH– ion (hydroxyl ion) when dissolved in water

  • They conduct electricity in solution form

Give two applications of electromagnets

  1. Generators, motors, and transformers

  2. Electric buzzers and bells

  3. Headphones and loudspeakers

  4. Relays and valves

  5. Data storage devices like VCRs, tape recorders, hard discs, etc.

  6. Induction cooker

  7. Magnetic locks

  8. MRI machines

  9. Particle accelerators

Give two uses of neutralisation reactions

Antacid tablets contain bases (like magnesium hydroxide) that neutralise excess stomach acid.

Lime (a base) is added to acidic soil to neutralise it and make it suitable for farming.

Give three ways to make an electromagnet stronger

  • Wrapping the coil around a piece of iron (such as an iron nail)

  • Making the wire into a coil

  • Adding more turns to the coil.

  • Increasing the current flowing through the wire or coils

Write the chemical equation for the reaction of sulphuric acid and potassium hydroxide.

H2SO4 + KOH --> K2SO4 + H20

500

Write the balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis.

6CO2 + 6H20 -->C6H12O6 + 6CO2

Describe how electricity can produce magnetism

  • When an electric current flows through a wire, it creates a magnetic field around the wire.

  • The magnetic field lines form concentric circles around the wire.

  • Wrapping the wire into a coil (solenoid) strengthens the magnetic field, and placing a soft iron core inside the coil makes a strong electromagnet.
