- Which of the following is the property of composite material?
- A.
   A high strengthÂ
- B.
B high stiffness Â
- C.
C resistance to corrosionÂ
- D.
D high red hardness
Correct Answer
D. D high red hardnessExplanation
Composite materials are made up of two or more different materials combined together to create a new material with improved properties. High red hardness refers to the ability of a material to maintain its hardness at high temperatures. This property is often desirable in composite materials as it allows them to withstand high temperatures without losing their hardness, making them suitable for applications in high-temperature environments.Rate this question:

1. Thermoplastic materials are those materials which__________________
- A.
A are formed into shape under pressure and result in permanently hard product
- B.
B do not become hard with the application of heat and pressure and no chemical change occurs
- C.
C are flexible and can withstand considerable wear under suitable conditions
- D.
D are used as a friction lining for clutches and brakes
Correct Answer
A. A are formed into shape under pressure and result in permanently hard productExplanation
Thermoplastic materials are able to be formed into a specific shape when pressure is applied, and once they cool down, they retain that shape permanently. This is in contrast to thermosetting materials, which undergo a chemical change when heated and cannot be reshaped once they have solidified. Therefore, option A accurately describes the characteristics of thermoplastic materials.Rate this question:

7 Which of the following is the chemically inert to organic solvents?
- A.
A thermoplastic plastic
- B.
B thermosetting plastic
Correct Answer
B. B thermosetting plasticExplanation
Thermosetting plastics are chemically inert to organic solvents. This means that they do not react or dissolve when exposed to organic solvents. Unlike thermoplastic plastics, which can melt and be reshaped when heated, thermosetting plastics undergo a chemical reaction when heated and become permanently set. This chemical reaction creates a cross-linked network structure that makes them resistant to solvents. Therefore, thermosetting plastics are the correct answer as they do not react with or dissolve in organic solvents.Rate this question:

11. ________ can be reshaped after heating.
- A.
A thermosetting plastic Â
- B.
B thermoplastic plastic
Correct Answer
A. A thermosetting plastic ÂExplanation
Thermosetting plastic can be reshaped after heating because it undergoes a chemical change when heated, which causes it to harden and become permanently rigid. This process is irreversible, so once a thermosetting plastic has been heated and shaped, it cannot be melted or reshaped again. In contrast, thermoplastic plastics can be melted and reshaped multiple times because they only undergo a physical change when heated, allowing them to be molded and remolded as needed.Rate this question:

- C.
C are flexible and can withstand considerable wear under suitable conditions
- D.
D are used as a friction lining for clutches and brakes
Correct Answer
A. A are formed into shape under pressure and result in permanently hard productExplanation
Thermosetting plastics are materials that undergo a chemical change when heated and molded under pressure. This chemical change causes the plastic to cross-link and form a rigid and permanently hard product. Unlike thermoplastics, which can be melted and reshaped multiple times, thermosetting plastics cannot be remolded once they have undergone this chemical change. Therefore, option A correctly describes the characteristic of thermosetting plastics.Rate this question:

20.Melting point of nano material decreases with decrease in size of particle.
- A.
A true  Â
- B.
B false
Correct Answer
A. A true  ÂExplanation
As the size of a particle decreases, the ratio of surface area to volume increases. This means that there is a larger surface area available for interactions with the surroundings. In the case of nano materials, this increased surface area leads to more atoms or molecules being present at the surface, which results in weaker intermolecular forces. Consequently, the particles require less energy to break these weak intermolecular forces and transition from a solid to a liquid state, resulting in a lower melting point. Therefore, the statement that the melting point of nano materials decreases with a decrease in size of the particle is true.Rate this question:

47. The melting point increases with decrease in size of nano particles
- A.
A correct  Â
- B.
B incorrect
Correct Answer
B. B incorrectExplanation
The correct answer is B incorrect. The melting point actually decreases with a decrease in the size of nano particles. This is due to the fact that as the size of particles decreases, the surface area to volume ratio increases. This leads to an increase in surface energy, which lowers the melting point. Additionally, the reduced size of particles also affects the crystal structure and atomic arrangement, further contributing to the decrease in melting point.Rate this question:

C. c both A & BExplanation
Both the bottom-up and top-down approaches are methods for the synthesis of nanoparticles. The bottom-up approach involves building nanoparticles from smaller components or atoms, gradually assembling them into larger structures. On the other hand, the top-down approach involves breaking down larger materials into nanoparticles through techniques such as grinding, milling, or lithography. Therefore, both A (bottom-up approach) and B (top-down approach) are valid methods for synthesizing nanoparticles.Rate this question:

- A.
A gold nano particles
- B.
B zinc sulphide
- C.
 C titanium carbide
- D.
D cadmium sulphide
Correct Answer
A. A gold nano particlesExplanation
Gold nanoparticles absorb 100% of light and do not shine because of a phenomenon called surface plasmon resonance. When light interacts with gold nanoparticles, the electrons in the metal oscillate collectively, absorbing the light energy and converting it into heat. This absorption of light prevents the gold nanoparticles from reflecting or scattering light, resulting in their lack of shine. Zinc sulphide, titanium carbide, and cadmium sulphide do not have the same properties and therefore do not absorb 100% of light.Rate this question:
