Ferric chloride is a salt of a weak base, iron(III) hydroxide, and a strong acid, hydrochloric acid, so its solution is acidic and has a pH below 7.

The magnetic field inside a long solenoid is B = μ₀nI, where n is the number of turns per unit length and I is the current, so the field depends on these two and not on the diameter.

Electromagnetic waves need no medium, so they travel through vacuum, and they consist of electric and magnetic fields that oscillate at right angles to each other and to the direction of travel.

In many single-celled organisms such as Amoeba and Paramecium, a special contractile vacuole collects excess water and some wastes from the cytoplasm and pumps them out of the cell.

A pollen grain lands on the stigma, grows a pollen tube that travels down through the style, and enters the ovary to reach an ovule, where fertilisation takes place.

A generator, whether AC or DC, produces electricity because a coil rotating in a magnetic field has a changing magnetic flux through it, and Faraday's laws say that a changing flux induces an electromotive force.

Autotrophs take carbon dioxide from their surroundings and build their own organic food from it, so CO₂ is their main source of carbon.

Soap in water forms a lyotropic liquid crystal, a phase whose ordered structure appears because of the amount of solvent mixed in, not because of temperature alone.

In India's land-use classification, land that is left uncultivated for more than five agricultural years is recorded as culturable waste land, even though it could be brought back under cultivation with reclamation.

Rainfed Area Development is meant for farms that depend on rain, not on canals, so improving canal irrigation is not one of its strategies.

A typical flower has four whorls arranged on the thalamus: sepals on the outside, then petals, then stamens, and carpels at the centre.
