Question 1.
\nGive an example of a metal which<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. is a liquid at room temperature<\/li>\n
  2. can be easily cut with a knife.<\/li>\n
  3. is the best conductors of heat.<\/li>\n
  4. is a poor conductor of heat.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Answer:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Metal that exists in a liquid state at room temperature \u2192 Mercury.<\/li>\n
    2. Metal that can be easily cut with a knife \u2192 Sodium.<\/li>\n
    3. Metal that is the best conductor of heat \u2192 Silver.<\/li>\n
    4. Metals that are poor conductors of heat \u2192 Lead.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Question 2.
      \nExplain the meanings of malleable and ductile.
      \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Malleable: Materials that can be beaten into thin sheets are called malleable.<\/li>\n
      2. Ductile: Materials that can be drawn into thin wires are called ductile.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Metals can be hammered into thin sheets. This property of a metal is called malleability and the metals showing this property are called malleable. Gold, Silver, Copper, aluminium etc are malleable metals. Metals can be drawn into wires. The ability of metals to be drawn into thin wires is called ductility. Gold is the most ductile metal. It is interesting to know that a wire of about 2 km length can be drawn from one gram of gold.<\/p>\n

                  \n(b) Assess the usefulness of these tests in distinguishing between metals and non-metals.
                  \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                    \n
                  1. With the hammer, on beating the sample if it changes into thin sheets (that is, it is malleable), then it is a metal otherwise a non-metal. Similarly, we can use the battery, bulb, wires, and a switch to set up a circuit with the sample. If the sample conducts electricity, then it is a metal otherwise a non-metal.<\/li>\n
                  2. The above tests are useful in distinguishing between metals and non-metals as these are based on the physical properties. No chemical reactions are involved in these tests.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                          \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                          Two ways to prevent the rusting of iron are:<\/p>\n

                            \n
                          1. Oiling, greasing, or painting:
                            \nBy applying oil, grease, or paint, the surface becomes waterproof. The moisture and oxygen present in the air cannot come into direct contact with iron. Hence, rusting is prevented<\/li>\n
                          2. Galvanization:
                            \nAn iron article is coated with a layer of zinc metal, which prevents the iron to come in contact with oxygen and moisture. Hence, rusting is prevented.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                            Question 11.
                            \nWhat type of oxides are formed when non-metals combine with oxygen?
                            \nAnswer:
                            \nWhen non metals combine with oxygen, neutral oxides or Acidic oxides are formed.
                            \nEg: NO2<\/sub>, SO4<\/sub> are acidic oxides NO, CO are neutral oxides.<\/p>\n

                            Question 12.
                            \nGive reasons:
                            \n(a) Platinum, gold and silver are used to make jewellery.
                            \n(b) Sodium, potassium and lithium are stored under oil.
                            \n(c) Aluminium is a highly reactive metal, yet it is used to make utensils for cooking.
                            \n(d) Carbonate and sulphide ores are usually converted into oxides during the process of extraction.
                            \nAnswer:
                            \na) Platinum, gold and silver are used to make jewellery because they are shining metals and ress reactive and they do not corrode easily.<\/p>\n

                            b) Sodium, Potassium and Lithium are highly reactive metals. These metals react so vigorously that they catch fire if kept in the open.
                            \nHence to protect them and to prevent accidental fire, they are kept immersed in kerosene oil.<\/p>\n

                            c) Aluminium is highly reactive metal. It does not rust. Because it combines with oxygen and forms Aluminium oxide. The protective oxide layer prevents the metal from further oxidation and Aluminium is light, good conductor of heat. Hence this is used to make utensils for cooking.<\/p>\n

                            d) The metals in the middle of the activity series such as iron, zinc, lead, copper are moderately reactive. These are usually present as sulphides or carbonates in nature. It is easier to obtain a metal from its oxide, as compared to its sulphides and carbonates. Therefore prior to reduction, the Metal sulphides and carbonates must be converted into metal oxides.<\/p>\n

                            Question 13.
                            \nYou must have seen tarnished copper vessels being cleaned with lemon or tamarind juice. Explain why these sour substances are effective in cleaning the vessels.
                            \nAnswer:
                            \nCopper-reacts with moist carbon dioxide in the air to form copper carbonate and as a result, copper vessel loses its shiny brown surface forming a green layer of copper carbonate. The citric acid present in the lemon or tamarind neutralises the basic copper carbonate and dissolves the layer. That is why tarnished copper vessels are cleaned with lemon or tamarind juice to give the surface of the copper vessel its characteristic lustre.<\/p>\n

                            Question 14.
                            \nDifferentiate between metal and non-metal on the basis of their chemical properties.
                            \nAnswer:
                            \nMetals:<\/p>\n

                              \n
                            1. Metals are electropositive.<\/li>\n
                            2. Metals combine with oxygen and forms metallic oxides.<\/li>\n
                            3. Metallic oxides are bases.<\/li>\n
                            4. Metallic oxides are insoluble in water. But some oxides soluble in water and forms alkalies.<\/li>\n
                            5. Metals react with water and forms metallic oxides and Hydrogen gas.<\/li>\n
                            6. Again these metallic oxides dissolve in water and forms metallic hydroxides.<\/li>\n
                            7. Metals produce chlorides. These are electrovalent or Ionic compounds.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                              Non-metals:<\/p>\n

                                \n
                              1. Non-metals react with metals and gain electrons and forms cations.<\/li>\n
                              2. Most of the Non-metals dissolve in water and forms. Acidic or Neutral oxides.<\/li>\n
                              3. Non-metals do not displace Hydrogen from dilute acids.<\/li>\n
                              4. Non-metals react with Hydrogen and forms Hydrides.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                Question 15.
                                \nA man went door to door posing as a goldsmith. He promised to bring back the glitter of old and dull gold ornaments. An unsuspecting lady gave a set of gold bangles to him which he dipped in a particular solution. The bangles sparkled like new but their weight was reduced drastically. The lady was upset but after a futile argument the man beat a hasty retreat. Can you play the detective to find out the nature of the solution he had used?
                                \nAnswer:
                                \nAqua regia (Latin for royal water) is a freshly prepared mixture of concentrated hydrochloric acid and concentrated nitric acid in the ratio of 3 : 1. It can dissolve gold, even though neither of these acids can do so alone. Aqua regia is a highly corrosive, fuming liquid. It is one of the few reagents that it is able to dissolve gold and platinum.<\/p>\n

                                Question 16.
                                \nGive reasons why copper is used to make hot water tanks and not steel (an alloy of iron).
                                \nAnswer:
                                \nCopper does not react with cold water, hot water or steam. However, iron reacts with steam. If the hot water tanks are made of steel (an alloy of iron), then iron would react vigorously with the steam formed from hot water,
                                \n3Fe(s) + 4H2<\/sub>O \u2192 Fe3<\/sub>O4<\/sub>(s) + H2<\/sub>O(g)
                                \nCu(s) + H2<\/sub>O \u2192 No reaction
                                \nThat is why copper is used to making hot water tanks and not steel.<\/p>\n
