Question
When two or more substances react and form some new substance, it is called a chemical reaction. Chemical equation is represented in terms of symbols, molecular formulas, moles, states, etc. As we know, all chemical reaction obeys law of chemical combination. Therefore, chemical reactions need to be balanced. It is done by hit and trial method. The chemical reactions can be classified into different types such as combination reaction, decomposition reaction, displacement reaction, double displacement reaction. The reactions take place in solution is precipitation reactions and neutralisation reactions.

(i) Define a chemical equation.
(ii) Which law is followed by all chemical reactions?
(iii) Name four types of chemical reactions.
or
(iv) Give example of precipitation reactions.

The growing size of the human population is a cause of concern for all people. The rate of birth and death in a given population will determine its size. Reproduction is the process by which organisms increase their population. The process of sexual maturation for reproduction is gradual and takes place while general body growth is still going on. Some degree of sexual maturation does not necessarily mean that the mind or body is ready for sexual acts or for having and bringing up children. Various contraceptive devices are being used by human beings to control the size of population.
(i) List two common signs of sexual maturation in boys and girls.
