What is the effect on the focal length of a convex lens when it is immersed in a liquid whose refractive index is equal to refractive index of the lens ?
- A Focal length will become infinity
- B Focal length will become zero
- C Focal length will reduce but not become zero
- D Focal length remains unchanged
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Focal length will become infinity
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \frac{1}{f} = \left( \frac{n_{lens}}{n_{medium}} - 1 \right) \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right) \) \( n_{lens} = n_{medium} \implies \frac{n_{lens}}{n_{medium}} = 1 \) \( \frac{1}{f} = (1 - 1) \left( \frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2} \right) = 0 \) \( f = \infty \)

Secondary treatment or biological treatment: The primary effluent is passed into large tanks where air is pumped into it. This allows vigorous growth of aerobic microbes. While growing, these microbes consume the major part of the organic matter in the effluent. This significantly change the BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) of the effluent. The effluent in then passed into a tank a small part of the sludge is pumped back into the aeration tank to serve as the inoculum. The remaining major part of the sludge is pumped into large tanks called sludge digesters. Here, other kinds of bacteria grow anaerobically in the sludge. The biogas produced can be used source of energy as it is inflammable. The effluent from the secondary treatment plant is generally released into natural water bodies like rivers and streams.

Carbonyl compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids play an important role in the biochemical process of plants and animal kingdom.
Many aldehydes and ketones find applications in dye, perfumery and other industries.
The carbonyl carbon atom is \(s p^2\)-hybridized forming three sigma and one pi-bond with oxygen.
C-O bonds are polar bond due to high electronegativity of oxygen than carbon.
Hence the carbonyl carbon behaves as an electrophilic center and oxygen as a nucleophilic centre.
Primary and secondary alcohols yield aldehydes and ketones respectively upon oxidation with variety of oxidizing agents.
The boiling points of aldehydes and ketones differ from hydrocarbons and ethers.
Aldehydes and ketones undergo nucleophilic addition reaction due to presence of electrophilic carbonyl carbon.
Nucleophile and a proton add across the carbon oxygen double bond.
