Question 10.
\nWhat happen when keep an iron rod in open place for one or two days?
\nAnswer:
\nRusting takes place on iron. The reason is iron react with air that contains oxygen and moisture forms a reddish brown coating (rust) due to formation of iron oxide.<\/p>\n

Question 11.

    Question 2.
    \nIs our body is a metal or a non-metal?
    \nAnswer:
    \nMost of the human body is made of water (H2<\/sub>O). It is not surprising that majority of a human body’s mass is oxygen. Carbon, the basic unit of organic molecules is the second. 99% of human body is made up of just six elements. Oxygen (65%), carbon (18%), hydrogen (10%), nitrogen (3%), calcium (1.5%), phosphorous (1%). Which shows our body has almost 97% of non-metals. So we may consider our body as non-metal.<\/p>\n

          \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Magnesium in the presence of oxygen burns to produce basic magnesium oxide. When it its added to water, it produces magnesium hydroxide, which turns the red litmus solution into blue.<\/li>\n
          2. Sulphur combines with oxygen, it forms acidic oxide. It get changed into sulphurous acid when react with water. This turns the blue litmus solutions into red.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                \nAnswer:
                \nI) Aim: The nature of oxides helps to identify the metals.
                \nMaterial required : Magnesium sample, spirit lamp, red litmus paper.
                \nProcedure:<\/p>\n

                  \n
                1. Take a small strip of magnesium and burn it and note the appearance after the reaction.
                  \nReaction: When we burn the sample of magnesium, it reacts with oxygen in air and form magnesium oxide.
                  \n\"AP<\/li>\n
                2. Take magnesium oxide solution and place red litmus in it. Red litmus turns to blue indicates the solution is basic in nature.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  Result: Metallic oxides solutions are basic in nature. So if the oxide solution is basic then the oxide is formed by a metal.<\/p>\n

                  II) Aim: The nature of oxides help to identify the non-metals.
                  \nMaterial required: Sulphur sample, spirit lamp, blue litmus paper, deflagrating spoon. Procedure:<\/p>\n

                    \n
                  1. Take a small amount of sulphur powder in a deflagrating spoon and heat it.<\/li>\n
                  2. As soon as sulphur starts burning, introduce the spoon into glass jar or tumbler.<\/li>\n
                  3. Add small quantity of water into the tumbler and quickly replace the lid. Shake the tumbler well.
                    \nReaction: Sulphur burns and reacts with oxygen in air to give sulphur dioxide.
                    \n\"AP<\/li>\n
                  4. Place blue litmus paper in the prepared solution it turns to red indicates the solution is acidic nature.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                    Result: Non-metallic oxides solution are acidic in nature. So if oxide solution turns blue litmus into red then the oxide is formed by a non-metal.<\/p>\n

                        \nApparatus: Test tube, dilute hydrochloric acid, magnesium ribbon, spirit lamp. Procedure:<\/p>\n

                          \n
                        1. Take a magnesium ribbon and rub with a sand paper.<\/li>\n
                        2. Put this ribbon into a test tube containing dilute hydrochloric acid.<\/li>\n
                        3. A gas is evolved from the test tube.<\/li>\n
                        4. Now bring a burning match stick near the mouth of the test tube.<\/li>\n
                        5. The gas puts off the match stick and produces a pop sound and gas burns with blue flame.<\/li>\n
                        6. Which indicates hydrogen gas is released.<\/li>\n
