2, Inorder to study Science we use scientific method of
study. This systematic approach to the study of
science has made it different to other branches of
knowledge like history, literature etc.

majesty of Allah's creation:
"Behold! in the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the
alternation of the night and the day; in the sailing of the
ships through the ocean for the benefit of mankind; in the
rain which Allah Sends down from the skies, and the life
which He gives therewith to an earth that is dead; in the
beasts of all kinds that He scatters through the earth; in the
change of the winds, and the clouds which they trail like
their slaves between the sky and the earth -- (Here) indeed
are Signs for a people that are wise. Surah Al-Baqarah

“They ponder over the creation of earth and heavens
(skies)”
Sura Al-Imran, Ayat 191
“and He is the Allah, who created every living thing from
water, out of them, some crawl, some are tetra-pods (four
legged) and some are bipedal (two legged). Allah creates
what he pleases. He the almighty and creator’
Sura Ai- Noor, Ayat 45
“Indeed, the Creation of earth and heavens (skies), the
difference of day and night, are the indications for the wise
and intelligent” (Sura Al -Imran, Ayah: 190). -

"Which is more valuable, one ounce of gold or one

element gold, but if what you need build a
skyscraper with then off course gold, a very soft
metal, is pretty useless. So there's no way to
scientifically determine value
2. Science can't answer questions of morality. The
problem of deciding good and bad, right and wrong,
is outside the determination of science,
3. Science can’t help us with questions about’ the

Supernatural means “above (or beyond) the natural

KNOWLEDGE BASE
1. Define element and compound?
Ans. Element: Element is a pure substance that cannot be

Compound: Compounds are pure substances made up of 2
or more elements, Compound can be decomposed into
simpler pure substances,

5. What do you know about glass?
Ans. Glass is a strange substance. It is nota solid, not a gas,
and not quite a liquid either. Generally, it is classified as a
rigid liquid, maintaining liquid properties while acting like
a solid. Heat can return the glass to a liquid and workable
form, making it easy to reuse and recycle.
6. What is respiration?
‘Ans. Respiration can be divided into two steps:
a. One of the steps in respiration is breathing process
during which the body draws fresh air into the
lungs. However, this leads to chemical changes -
oxygen diffuses out of the air in the lungs into the
blood, and carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood
into the air in the lungs.
b. The second step is cellular respiration, in which
every cell in the body "burns" sugar (in which
energy is stored) in'the presence of oxygen to make
adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the form of energy
Storing molecules in the cell. Carbon dioxide and
water are the by-products,

are free flowing liquids,
iii. Alcohols have an odour that is often described as
“biting” and as "hanging" in the nasal passages.
iv. Alcohols have applications in industry and science
as reagents or solvents.
v. Due to its low toxicity and ability to dissolve non-
polar substances, ethanol can be used asa solvent in
medical drugs, perfumes, and vegetable essences
such as vanilla.
vi. Ethanol can be used as an antiseptic to disinfect the
skin before injections are given, often along with
iodine,
Alcohol is also used as a preservative for specimens

2. Why water is called as “universal solvent”?
Ans, Water is called the “universal solvent" because it
dissolves more substances than any other liquid. Pure
water has a pH of 7 which is regarded as neutral neither
acidic nor basic.
3. Explain rusting of iron?
Ans. Rusting of iron is an example of chemical change.
During rusting the iron (Fe) combines with oxygen (02) in
the atmosphere and produce iron oxide. In iron, the iron
atoms are arranged in a metallic crystalline matrix. When
rust occurs, oxygen bonds to the iron atoms to create an
oxide of iron.

6. Why copper is better than aluminum in wiring?
Copper versus Aluminum in wiring:
Copper is the most efficient and reliable electrica}
conductor for commercial and industrial wire and cable.
When compared to aluminum, copper has a significant
ampcity advantage, Itis easier to install, and is resistant to
corrosion, The true cost of a cable, often referred as its “life
cycle cost’. While aluminum cable wire is sometimes less
expensive to buy than copper, aluminum cable is more
difficult to install and is more prone to failure. Therefore,
the full life cycle cost of copper cable is lower than
aluminum cable.
