Before taking the test

  • Memorize all five types of reactions: combination, decomposition, displacement, double displacement, and redox
  • Practice balancing equations using the hit-and-trial method — always include state symbols (s), (l), (g), (aq)
  • Know observations from NCERT activities: FeSO₄ heating (green→brown), Fe + CuSO₄ (blue→green), AgCl in sunlight (white→grey)
  • Understand oxidation, reduction, and identify oxidising/reducing agents in redox reactions like CuO + H₂
  • Remember: corrosion needs moisture + oxygen; rancidity is prevented by nitrogen flushing, antioxidants, airtight containers
  • Know the difference between exothermic (CaO + H₂O, respiration) and endothermic (CaCO₃ decomposition, photosynthesis) reactions
