State your observation for the following cases:

i. Moist blue litmus is introduced into a gas jar of sulphur dioxide.

ii. Dry red rose petals are placed in the jar of sulphur dioxide.

iii. Paper soaked in potassium permanganate solution is introduced into a gas jar of
sulphur dioxide.

iv. Ammonia gas is burnt in an atmosphere of oxygen in the absence of a catalyst.

v. A glass rod dipped in ammonium hydroxide is brought near the mouth of the
concentrated hydrochloric acid bottle.

Match the Column A with Column B:

Column A	Column B
(i) Sodium chloride	Increases
(ii) Ammonium ion	Covalent bond
(iii) Electronegativity across the period	Ionic bond
(iv) Non-metallic character down the group	Covalent and coordinate bond
(v) Carbon tetrachloride	Decreases

Answer as follows:
(i.) Correct item from B matching sodium chloride
(ii.) Correct item from B matching ammonium ion and so on.

Write the equation for each of the following reactions:

i. Sulphur is heated with concentrated sulphuric acid.
