Aluminium came in contact with air.

उत्तर
Aluminum came in contact with air.
Aluminum is a very reactive metal. The outer surface of the metal is actually covered by a very thin layer of oxide which keeps the metal protected from the air. But when the oxide layer is damaged, aluminum comes in contact with the air. It is easily attacked by air. Then aluminum starts reacting with the oxygen. It will burn as bright white flame to change into aluminum(III) oxide.

Metal ‘A’ has electronic configuration 2, 8, 1 and metal ‘B’ has electronic configuration 2, 8, 8, 2. Out of these, which metal is more reactive? Write the reaction of this metal with dilute HCl acid.
Three metal samples of magnesium, aluminium and iron were taken and rubbed with sandpaper. These samples were then put separately in test tubes containing dilute hydrochloric acid. Thermometers were also suspended in each test tube so that their bulbs dipped in the acid. The rate of formation of bubbles was observed. The above activity was repeated with dilute nitric acid and the observations were recorded.
Answer the following questions:
(i) When the activity was done with dilute hydrochloric acid, then in which one of the test tubes was the rate of formation of bubbles the fastest and the thermometer showed the highest temperature?
(ii) Which metal did not react with dilute hydrochloric acid? Give reason.
(iii) Why is hydrogen gas not evolved when a metal reacts with dilute nitric acid? Name the ultimate products formed in the reaction.
OR
