  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Which of the following properties of aluminium makes it useful to make parts of airplanes?

    Solution

    Aluminium, when mixed with other metals, gives hard alloy with low density, which makes it suitable for making parts of airplanes.

    Read the given statements carefully and mark the correct answer.

    ...view full instructions

    Statement I: Nowadays, instead of copper, aluminium is used to make electrical wires.
    Statement II: Aluminium is cheaper than copper, that's why it is a good substitute of copper.

    Solution

    Aluminium is used to make electrical wires because aluminium is cheaper than copper.

     

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    Heena's class teacher told her that silver and gold metals do not react with air and water. But, she noticed that her payal tarnished after some time. The reason of tarnishing of her silver payal is reaction with

    Solution

    Silver metal is passive with air and water, but it reacts with H2S in air to form silver sulphide, which is black in colour.

     

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    While performing an experiment, Rohit added HCl in a test tube containing metal 'X' and no effervescence was produced. This means that no hydrogen gas was produced. According to his class teacher, the metal 'X' is

    Solution

    Less reactive metals like copper, gold and silver do not react with acids. They cannot displace hydrogen from acidic solution.

     

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    Riya often feels fatigue and weakness. Her doctor diagnosed her haemoglobin level as being low. This is due to the deficiency of a certain element. The name of the element is

    Solution

    Iron is an important component of the red coloured pigment in blood called haemoglobin. Deficiency of iron causes anaemia, which causes lower level of blood haemoglobin, resulting in fatigue and weakness.

     

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Sodium, potassium and arsenic cannot be drawn into wires because

    Solution

    Sodium, potassium and arsenic are non-ductile metals.

     

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    The base of utensils is coated with copper and handles are made of wood. Why?

    Solution

    Utensils need to be good conductors of heat so as to cook the food. But, the handle, which we are supposed to hold should not get heated up otherwise it will harm our skin. Copper is a metal and a good conductor of heat and is used to coat the base of utensils. On the other hand, wood is a bad conductor of heat and therefore, is used to make the handles.

     

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    Copper and aluminium wires are used in making electrical appliances. Which of the following properties is responsible for this?

    Solution

    The wires used in making electrical appliances should have the tendency to allow electric current to pass through and should not melt down. Also, the wires should be thin. Both copper and aluminium are ductile metals and do not melt when electric current passes through them. Also, these metals are good conductors of electricity.

     

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    What is the nature of the oxides formed by metals when they react with oxygen?

    Solution

    The metallic oxides, when dissolved in water, form such compounds which can dissociate to give hydroxyl ions. Such compounds are said to be basic in nature.

     

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    How does a litmus test help in finding whether a solution is a base or not?

    Solution

    Basic solutions turn red litmus paper blue, while the acidic solutions turn blue litmus paper red. Thus, a litmus test is used to identify whether a given solution is acidic, basic or neutral.
