Explanation / Answer

Q.1: Electrical conductivity, density, solubility and boiling point are physical properties, where as the reaction of potassium and calcium with water and their reactivity are chemical properties

Hence the option - (a) which states that potassium reacts with water more quickly than calcium react with water, is a comparison of chemical property. Hence (a) is the correct answer.

Q.2: According to the defination of theory, a theory is a well tested unifying principle that explains a body of facts.

Hence (c) is the correct answer.

Q.3: A homohenous mixture is a type of mixture in which the composition of each component is homogenous through out the volume of the mixture. A filtered air contains N2, O2, CO2 etc and doesn't contain immisible dust, particulate matter etc and hence forms a homogenous mixture.

Hence (c) is correct answer.

Q.4: While division of two different quantities, the product should contain significant figures equal to the number of significant figures present in the least significant quantity which is 3 here. Hence the product must contain 3 significant figures.
