Explanation

• Crystallization is the process of separating a soluble solid from a solution by allowing the solution to cool and form crystals.
• This process is used to purify substances and obtain a solid in a pure form.

Explanation

• Solar power is a renewable energy source that generates electricity from sunlight.
• It does not emit carbon dioxide (CO2) or any other greenhouse gases.

The sources of carbon dioxide emissions:

• Burning of fossil fuels (such as coal, oil, and natural gas) releases CO2 into the atmosphere.
• Burning wood (such as in fireplaces or woodstoves) also releases CO2.
• Respiration (the process by which living organisms breathe) releases CO2 as a byproduct.
• Car exhaust smoke (from internal combustion engines) contains CO2, as well as other pollutants.

Explanation

• Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria.
• It convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of glucose (sugar), using carbon dioxide and water as reactants.

Explanation

• Magnesium (Mg) is an element, not a compound.
• It is a pure substance made up of only one type of atom.
• Whereas compounds are made up of two or more different elements.

Examples of compounds:

• Water (H2O) - Compound of Hydrogen and Oxygen
• Common salt (NaCl) - Compound of Sodium and Chlorine
• Washing soda (Na2CO3) - Compound of Sodium, Carbon, and Oxygen
• Carbon dioxide (CO2) - Compound of Carbon and Oxygen
  
• Sugar (C6H12O6) - Compound of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen

Explanation

The incorrect statement is: Metals are dull and soft.

Metals are typically:

• Solid at room temperature
• Have high melting and boiling points
• Good conductors of heat and electricity
• Shiny (although some metals may have a dull appearance due to oxidation or other surface treatments)
• Ductile (can be drawn into thin wires or sheets)
• Malleable (can be pounded into shape without breaking)

Explanation

• Air is a mixture of different gases.
• Primarily consisting of nitrogen (78%), oxygen (21%), and trace amounts of other gases.

Explanation

• Sand does not dissolve in water.
• Unlike sugar, glucose, and salt, which are all soluble in water.

Explanation

• Filtration is a process used to separate insoluble solids from a mixture by passing the mixture through a filter.
• Which traps the solids and allows the liquid to pass through.

Explanation

• An element is a substance that consists of only one type of atom and cannot be further split up into simpler substances by chemical reactions.
• Examples: hydrogen (H), carbon (C), oxygen (O), and iron (Fe).
