Explanation

(a) Characteristics of Sedimentary Rocks

(1) Sedimentary rocks are stratified rocks or rocks that show distinct layers or strata

(2) They are non-crystalline

(3) They are usually soft

(4) Not resistant to erosion

(5) They are permeable

(6) They may be coarse or fine grained depending on the nature of materials deposited.

(7) They are fossilized rocks / they contain fossils of plants and animals.

(8) Examples are sandstone, coal, limestone.

(b) Sedimentary rocks can be formed mechanically, organically and chemically

(i) Mechanically formed Sedimentary Rocks

These are derived from sediments of pre-existing rocks. The rock debris are usually deposited by agents of erosion such as water, wind or glacier. The deposited materials are pressed together to become solid by the weight of overlying deposits. This process of solidification is called compaction or cementation. They may form conglomerates.

(ii) Organically formed Sedimentary Rocks

These are formed from the remains of living organisms such as plants and animals. The remains of animals like corals or shellfish form calcareous rocks. Those formed from the remains of vegetation / plants such as forest or swamps are called carbonaceous rocks. Examples are limestone, chalk, etc.

(iii) Chemically formed Sedimentary RocksThese are rocks formed from precipitation from other rock solutions or certain minerals from solution of salt. They are often referred to as evaporates. They are also from crystallization. Examples include potash, gypsum etc.

Explanation

(a) Jesus called the twelve disciples and sent them out in twos. He gave them authority over the devil and evil spirits. He instructed them not to take bread, bag or money on their journey. They could take a staff, wear sandals and put on one tunic. If they entered a house and they were welcomed they were to stay there till their departure. If any place did not receive them or listen to them, they should shake off the dust from their feet as a testimony against them, as they left there.

(b) The differences between Matthew and Mark accounts are:

(i) The account of Matthew shows that they were sent to the Jews alone to prove that Jesus was their Messiah while Mark said they were generally directed to Jews and non-Jews.

(ii) Matthew makes use of kingdom of heaven while Mark uses kingdom of God.

(iii) Matthew does not mention the names of the twelve apostles but Mark does.

Correct Answer: D. an isotopic mixture

Correct Answer: D. 399000

Explanation

(a)Shirk means associating partner(s) with Allah and it is the opposite of Monotheism (Taw??d).

(b) Types:

*Shirkul- Akbar(Major Shirk).

*Shirkul- A?ghar (Minor Shirk).

Shirkul- Akbar is a major Shirk which constitute apostasy.

Shirk condemns the persons who practice it to Hell.

Examples:

*Atheism- Disbelief in Allah.

*Idol Worship.

*Hero Worship.

*Dualism.

*Trinity.

*Ancestral worship.

*Making a vow with other being other than Allah.

*Seeking supernatural help and aid from other than Allah.

*Making a middle- man (intercessor) between oneself and Allah.

*Palm reading or fortune telling.

Shirkul-A?ghar is a minor shirk which does not constitute apostasy.

Its defects could lead to major Shirk.

Examples:

*Utterances, such as swearing by another deity other than Allah.

*Actions, such as wearing a ring or an amulet to ward off evil.

*>Ar-Riy?'u- show off.

*Hidden Shirk i.e. inwardly dissatisfied with the decree of Allah.

*Belief in superstitions.

Correct Answer: D. molar mass

Explanation

The correct answer is D. molar mass.

###

Mixtures of solids can be separated physically based on several physical properties:

• Melting point: Solids with different melting points can be separated by a process called *liquation* or fractional melting (e.g., separating easily meltable ores like tin or antimony from impurities).

• Solubility: Solids can be separated using a suitable solvent where one solid dissolves while the other does not (e.g., separating a mixture of sand and salt), followed by filtration and crystallization.

• Particle size: Solids with different grain/particle sizes can be separated using *sieving*.

Molar mass is a molecular property, and there is no direct macroscopic physical method used to separate bulk solid mixtures based purely on differences in their molar masses.

Correct Answer: B. fold mountains
