  2. Explanation of Q1.
    Photographic fixer is a mix of chemicals used in the final step in the photographic processing of film or paper. The fixer stabilises the image, removing the unexposed silver halide remaining on the photographic film.

    Fixation is commonly achieved by treating the film or paper with a solution of thiosulfate salt. Popular salts are sodium thiosulfate—commonly called hypo

  3. Explanation of Q3.
    Ammonium sulfate (AS) has relatively low nitrogen content (21 percent N). It also contains 24 percent sulfur (S).

    Ammonium nitrate (AN) is a more concentrated source of nitrogen containing 33.5 percent to 34.5 percent N.

    Urea is the most concentrated solid nitrogen fertilizer available (46 percent N), and has become the world’s major source of nitrogen.

  4. Explanation of Q5.
    Etching refers to the technique of creating art on the surface of glass by applying acidic, caustic, or abrasive substances.
    it consists of fluoride compounds, such as hydrogen fluoride and sodium fluoride

  5. Explanation of Q8.
    the most common material used for plates or pins is stainless steel or titanium because they function well. They do not react with the body, never rust, are very resistant to corrosion, and they are strong enough to resist fatigue while the bone is healing.

  6. Explanation of Q9.
    The ability of Oxygen atom to pull electrons is greater than of Sulfur i.e. O is more electronegetive than S. When an hydrogen is connected to an highly electronegative element like Oxygen (this usually happens with fluorine, oxygen, and nitrogen), it has higher intermolecular forces like Hydrogen bonding. Its a very strong bond that packs the water molecules closely together, forming a liquid while sulfur does not attract H nearly as strongly so they dissociate into a gas.
