CBSE Cass X Science Chapter 16

 


Total coliform counts give a general indication of the sanitary condition of a water supply.

  1. Total coliforms include bacteria that are found in the soil, in water that has been influenced by surface water, and in human or animal waste.
  2. Fecal coliforms are the group of the total coliforms that are considered to be present specifically in the gut and feces of warm-blooded animals. Because the origins of fecal coliforms are more specific than the origins of the more general total coliform group of bacteria, fecal coliforms are considered a more accurate indication of animal or human waste than the total coliforms.
  3. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is the major species in the fecal coliform group. Of the five general groups of bacteria that comprise the total coliforms, only E. coli is generally not found growing and reproducing in the environment. Consequently, E. coli is considered to be the species of coliform bacteria that is the best indicator of fecal pollution and the possible presence of pathogens.
  4. Most coliform bacteria do not cause disease. However, some rare strains of E. coli, particularly the strain 0157:H7, can cause serious illness. Causes UTI(Urinary Tract Infection)

CBSE Class 10 Chemistry Chapter 3 Metals & Non Metals

Metals and Non-metals 3.1 PHYSICAL PROPERTIES 3.1.1 Metals The easiest way to start grouping substances is by comparing their physical properties Activity 3.1 ·         Take samples of iron, copper, aluminium and magnesium. Note the appearance of each sample. ·         Clean the surface of each sample by rubbing them with sand paper and note their appearance again. After rubbing with sand paper metal is shining. Metals, in their pure state, have a shining surface. This property is called metallic lustre. Activity 3.2 ·         Take small pieces of iron, copper, aluminium, and magnesium. ·         Try to cut these metals with a sharp knife and note your observations. ·         Hold a piece of sodium metal with a pair of tongs. CAUTION: Always handle sodium metal with care. Dry it by pres...

SITE ACCEPTANCE TEST

  SAT (Site Acceptance Test) Site acceptance test is test to verify the Automation system like DCS (Distributed Control System) & Subsystems are well connected & communicate with each other without having any Hardware or software failure. SAT activity requires involvement of MAC Contractor, EPC Contractor, Subsystem Vendor.         MAC (Main Automation Contractor i.e., Honeywell, Yokogawa etc.) should prepare SAT procedure & submit to PMT (Project Management Team) for approval during CDR (Critical Design Review). DCS (Distributed Control System) SAT also includes Integration Test with various Sub System or Package PLC (programmable logic Controllers) EPC (Engineering Procurement Construction) Contractor coordinates & manages Integration Test activity with sub system vendors. EPC ensures DCS is ready for SAT Like ensuring all Eng/HIS( DCS Engineering Stations), all HIS(Human Interface Station), All DCS System Cabinets(Pro...
