Metals Non Metal Class 10 

Que 1
What is metallic lusture

Ans
There are some elements which have ability to shine which is termed as metallic lecture these properties are generally found in metals


Que 2
What is malleability

Ans
The ability of metals to be beaten into thin sheets is called malleability


Que 3
What is ductility

Ans
The ability of metals to be drawn into thin wires is called ductility Gold is the most ductile element

Que 4
Name some good conductors of heat

Ans
The best conductor of heat are silver and copper

Que 5
What is full form of PVC

Ans
Full form of PVC is polyvinyl chloride it is a rubber like material which is coated on the current carrying wires

Que 6
What is Sonorous

Ans
When the metals produce sound on striking a hard surface this is known as Sonorous

Que 7
Name a non metal which is liquid

Ans
Bromine is a non metal which is liquid

Que 8
Name a non metal which is lustrous
Ans
Iodine is a non metal which is lustrous

Que 9
What is allotrope

Ans
Main metal exist in different forms each form is called allotrope for example carbon is a non metal which exist in different forms the three different forms of allotrope of carbon are diamond and graphite

Que 10
Name the hardest natural substance

Ans
Diamond is the hardest natural substance which is the allotrope of carbon
Que 11
Which type of oxides are formed when they dissolve in water
a) metal
b) nonmetal

Ans

a) when a metal oxide dissolved in water at form basic oxides

b) when a non metal dissolve in water it form acidic oxides


Que 12
Name a metal which can easily be cut with a knife

Ans
Sodium is a metal which can easily be cut with a knife

Que 13
What are amphoteric oxides

Ans
The metal oxides which react with both acid as well as base to form salt and water are known as amphoteric oxide
For example ammonium oxide reacts with both acids and bases forming aluminium trichloride and sodium aluminate when react with acid and bases respectively
Que 14
What is anodising

Ans
Anodising is a process of forming a thick oxide layer of aluminium Aluminium develops a thin oxide layer when exposed to air aluminium oxide coat makes it resistant to further corrosion

Que 15
What is reactivity series
Ans
Activity series a list of metals arranged in the order of their decreasing activities
Watch the attach lecture in order to understand the reactivity series and the different numericals and tricks based on reactivity series

to join railway tracks or cracked machine parts is known as thermit reactions

Que 23
During the process of electrolysis on which electrode the pure metal is collected and on which electrode impurities are collected

Ans
During the process of electrolysis
The pure metal is collected at the cathode
The impure metal is collected at the anode

Que 24
What chemical process is used for obtaining a metal from its oxide

Ans
The process by which we obtain a metal is known as electrolytic refining

Que 25
Name two metals which are found in nature in the free state

Ans
Gold ,Silver

Que 26
Name the the process by which we extract the metals from their ores

Ans
Extraction of metals from their oaths and then refining them for use is known as metallurgy

Que 27
What is corrosion

Ans
The surface of some metals when exposed to moist air for a long period of time get screwed it this is known as corrosion

For example
in case of silver they become black when exposed to air forming silver sulphide

Copper reacts with moist carbon dioxide and gains a green coat forming copper carbonate

Iron when exposed to moist air forms a coating of brownie flake called rust

Que 28
How we prevent element from the corrosion

Ans
We prevent corrosion by
Painting ,oiling , galvanizing ,anodising

Que 29
What is galvanization

Ans
The method of protecting steel and iron from rusting by coating them with a thin layer of zinc is known as galvanization

Que 30
What is alloy

Ans
It is a homogeneous mixture of two or more metals or a metal and a non metal
Que 31
Give the composition of alloys

Ans
Amalgam
Amalgam is the alloy of Mercury

Brass
Brass is the alloy of copper and zinc

Bronze
Ranches the alloy of copper and tin

Solder
Solder is the alloy of lead and tin
