A common metal which is highly resistant to corrosion is ______.
A metal X which is resistant to corrosion is produced by the electrolysis of its molten oxide whereas another metal Y which is also resistant to corrosion is produced by the reduction of its oxide with carbon. Metal X can be used in powder form in thermite welding whereas metal Y is used in making cathodes of ordinary dry cells.
- Name the metals X and Y.
- Which of the two metals is more reactive: X or Y?
- Name one ore or metal X. Also write its chemical formula.
- Name one ore of metal Y. Also write its chemical formula.
- Name one alloy of metal X and one alloy of metal Y.
Four metals P, Q, R and S are all obtained by the reduction of their oxides with carbon. Metal P is used to form a thin layer over the sheets of metal S to prevent its corrosion. Metal Q is used for electroplating tiffin boxes made of metal S whereas metal R is used in making car batteries. Metals Q and R form an alloy called solder. What are metals P, Q, R and S? How have you arrived at this conclusion?
