Test series is based on following chapters.
Science Chapter 22: Acids, Bases and Salts
Science Chapter 23: Heat
Science Chapter 24: Force
Q1: In a nuclear reation what is the purpose of heavy water
speedup the reaction
slow the reaction
slow the neutrons
stop the reactions
Q2: To control the reaction we need
iron rods
cadmium rods
potassium rods
all
Q3: In pressurized heavy water reactors, what is the moderator
plutonium
cadmium
boron
heavy water
Q4: India has a three stage nuclear program Which is true regarding it
In first stage, the natural uranium is used as fuel, heavy water as moderator [pressurized heavy water reactors] and we get plutonium.
In second stage, plutonium and uranium oxide is used to give uranium -233 in fast breeder reactors where no moderator is needed.
In final stage, thorium and uranium-233 is used to get energy [thorium based reactors].

none
Q10:Woolen clothes are preferred in winter as.
it absorbs heat
it reflects heat
it prevents heat from escaping
none
Q11: Construction of houses is done using hollow bricks that have air trapped in them as
This prevents heating of houses during summer and keeps flats cool.
During winter the heat from flats doesn’t escape out keeping them warm.
