Answer the following

1. Metallic oxides are generally _____ in nature
2. Na2CO3 is a salt of strong base and a weak acid .its nature is
(acidic, basic neutral )
3. When Zinc granules are heated with NaOH solution, _______ gas is evolved.

4. A student was given Mn, Zn, Fe and Cu metals. Identify which of them
(a) will not displace H2 from dil. HCl.
(b) will react only with steam to give H2(g).
(c) Will give H2 with HNO3.
5. Why do acids not show acidic behaviour in the absence of water ?
6. Assertion (A) and Reason (R)
i) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
ii) Both A and R are true ,but R is not the correct explanation of A
iii) A is true but R is false.
iv) A is false but R is true.
a) A : HCl is a strong acid.
R : A strong acid dissociates completely in water.
b) A : Baking soda can lead to problem of acidity .
R : Baking soda is alkaline.
7. What is universal indicator?
8. Which gas is usually liberated when an acid reacts with a metal ? Illustrate with an example. How will
you test the presence of this gas.
9. Give reason why compounds like glucose and alcohol do not show acidic or basic behaviour although
they contain hydrogen in them.

10. You are given two solutions, X and Y where the pH of solution Y is 4 and the pH of solution Y is 9.
Name the solution having a higher concentration of hydrogen ion. Also, state whether X and Y are
basic or acidic.

11. A brown coloured metal M does not liberate hydrogen from acids but reacts with oxygen to give a
black colour product. Identify M and black coloured products and explain M’s reaction with oxygen.
12. An element A burns with golden flame in the air. It reacts with another element B, atomic number 17,
to give a product C. An aqueous solution of product C on electrolysis gives a compound D and
liberates hydrogen. Identify A, B, C and D. Also, write down the equations for the reactions involved.
