  1. Red and blue
  2. Blue and red
  3. Pink and colourless

Therefore the answer is (d)

 

Question 4

The correct way of making a solution of acid in water is:

  1. Add water to acid
  2. Add acid to water
  3. Mix acid and water simultaneously
  4. Add water to acid in shallow container

 

Answer:  

  • We should always very carefully add acid to water .
  • Diluting an acidic or basic solution is a reaction that produces a lot of heat .
  • Mixing acid and water simultaneously or adding water to acid could actually trigger a blast of water and acid on the user.

Therefore the answer is (b).
