CHEMICAL REACTIONS & CHEMICAL EQUATIONS

1.1

INTRODUCTION:
Chemistry is defined as that branch of science which deals with the composition and properties of matter and the changes that matter undergone by various interactions. A chemical compound is formed as a result of a chemical change and in this process different type of energies such as heat, electrical energy, radiation etc. are either absorbed or evolved. The total mass of the substance remains the same throughout the chemical change.

1.2

CHEMICAL ACTION OR REACTION:

When a chemical change occurs, a chemical action is said to have taken place. A chemical change or chemical action is represented by a chemical equation. The matter undergoing change in known as reactant and new chemical component formed is known as product.

1.2 (a) Characteristics of a Chemical Reaction:

When we heat sugar crystals they melt and on further heating they give steamy vapour, leaving behind brownish black mass. On cooling no sugar crystals appears. Thus change which takes place on heating sugar is a chemical change and the process which brings about this chemical change is called chemical reaction. In this reaction the substance which take part in bringing about chemical change are called reactants. The substance which are produced as a result of chemical change are called products. These reactions involve braking and making of chemical bonds. Product(s) of the reaction is/are new substances with new name(s) and chemical formula. It is often difficult or impossible to reverse a chemical reaction. Properties of products formed during a chemical reaction are different from thos of the reactants. Apart from heat other forms of energies are light and electricity which are also used in carrying out chemical changes. www.tekoclasses.com Director : SUHAG R.

In all chemical reactions, the transformation from reactants to products is accompanied by various characteristics, which are-

(i) Evolution of gas : Some chemical reactions are characterized by evolution of a gas.

When zinc metal is treated with dilute sulphuric acid, hydrogen gas is evolved. The hydrogen gas burns with a pop sound. Zn (s) + H2SO4 (dilute) ZnSO4 (aq) + H2(g) When washing soda is treated with hydrochloric acid, it gives off colorless gas with lots of effervescence. Na2CO3(s) + 2HCI 2NaCI (aq) + H2O(I) + CO2(g)

heat 2NaNCO3 (s) Sodium hydrogen carbonate

Na2SO3 (s) + H2O ( ) + CO2 (g) Sodium carbonate Water Carbon dioxide

(ii) Change of colour: Certain chemical reactions are characterized by the change in colour of reacting
substance. When red lead oxide is heated strongly it forms yellow coloured lead monoxide and gives off oxygen gas. 2Pb3O4 (s) Lead oxide (Red)
heat

6PbO(s) + Lead monoxide (Yellow)

O2(g)

When copper carbonate (green) is heated strongly it leaves behind a black residue. CuCO3 (s) Copper carbonate (Green)
heat

CuO(s) Copper oxide (Black)

CO2 (g) Carbon dioxide

2Pb(NO3)2(s) Lead (II) nitrate (White)

2 PbO(s) + Lead (II) oxide (Yellow)

4NO2 (g) + O2 (g) Nitrogen dioxide (Brown)

C12H22O 11 (s) White sugar

heat

12C(s) Carbon Black

11H2O Water

(iii) Formation of precipitate : Some chemical reactions are characterized by the formation of precipitate (an insoluble substance), when the solutions of the soluble chemical compounds are mixed together.

When silver nitrate solution is mixed with a solution of sodium chloride. AgNO3 (aq) Silver nitrate (Colourless) + NaCI (aq) + NaNO3 (aq) Sodium chloride Sodium nitrate (Colourless) (Colourless) AgCI (s) Silver chloride (White precipitate)

A dirty green precipitate of ferrous hydroxide is formed, when a solution of ferrous sulphate is mixed with sodium hydroxide solution. FeSO4 (aq) + 2NaOH(aq) + Fe(OH)2 (aq) Na2SO4 (aq) Ferrous sulphate (Light green) sodium hydroxide (Colourless) Sodium sulpahte (Colourless) Ferrous hydroxide (Dirty green precipitate)

BacI2 (aq) + Barium chloride

dill H2SO4

BaSO4 (s) + 2HCI (aq) Barium sulphate (White precipitate)

(iv) Energy changes : all chemical reactions proceed either with the absorption or release of energy.
One the basis of energy changes, there are two types of reactions:

(A) Endothermic reaction : A chemical reaction which is accompanied by the absorption of

heat energy is called an endothermic reaction.
Heat C (s) + 2S (s) CS2 ( )

Light energy is essential for biochemical reaction, photosynthesis, by which green plants prepare their food from carbon dioxide & water.

(B) Exothermic reaction : A chemical reaction which is accompanied by the release of heat
energy is called exothermic reaction. When magnesium wire is heated from its tip in a bunsen flame, it catches fire and burns with a dazzling white flame with release of heat and light energy.
Heat 2Mg (s) + O2 (g) 2MgO (s) + Energy

When quick lie (calcium oxide) is placed in water, the water becomes very hot and sometimes starts boiling. It is because of release of heat energy during the reaction. CaO (s) + H2O
Ca(OH)2 (aq) + Heat energy

Calcium oxide Water

Calcium hydroxide

(v) Change of state: Some chemical reactions are characterised by a change in state i.e. solid, liquid or
gas Two volumes of hydrogen gas react with one volume of oxygen gas to from water. 2H2 (g) + O2 (g) 2H2O ( ) or when electric current is passed through water it splits into its elements. 2H2O ( ) NH3 (g) Ammonia +
Electric current

2H2(g) +

1.3

CHEMICAL EQUATIONS :
All chemical changes are accompanied by chemical reactions. These reactions can be described in sentence form, but the description would be quite long. Chemical equations have been framed to describe the chemical reactions. A chemical equation links together the substance which react (reactants) with the new substances that are formed (products). Zinc + Hydrochloric acid Zinc chloride + Hydrogen (Reactants) (Products)

A Chemical reaction can be summarised by chemical equation. 1.3 (a) Types of Chemical Equations : (i) Word equations : A word equation links together the names of the reactants with those of the
products. For example, the word equation, when magnesium ribbon burns in oxygen to form a white powder of magnesium oxide, may be written as followsMagnesium + Oxygen Magnesium oxide (Reactants) (Product) Similarly, the word equation for the chemical reaction between granulated zinc and hydrochloric acid may be written as Zinc + Sulphuric acid Zinc sulphate + Hydrogen

In a word equation
The reactants are written on the left hand side with a plus sign (+) between them. The products are written on the right hand side with a plus sign (+) between them. An arrow () separates the reactants from the products. The direction of the arrow head points towards the product.

Although word equations are quite useful, yet they dont give the true picture of the chemical reactions. (ii) Symbol equation : A brief representation of a chemical reaction in terms of symbols and formulae of the substance involved is known as a symbol equation.
In a symbol equation, the symbols and formulae of the elements and compounds are written instead of their word names.

For e.g. Burning of magnesium in oxygen to form magnesium oxide may be written as
follows : Mg + O2 MgO

Symbol equations are always written from the word equations.

1.3 (b) Unbalanced and Balanced Chemical Equations :

In an unbalanced equation, the number of atoms of different elements on both side of the equation are not equal. For example, in the equation given below, the number of Mg atoms on both sides of the equation is one (same), but the number of oxygen atoms are not equal, It is known as an unbalanced equations. Mg + O2 MgO

An unbalanced equation is also called skeletal equation.

In a balanced equating, the number of different elements on both sides of the equation are always equal. The balanced equation for the burning of magnesium ribbon in oxygen is written as 2 Mg + O2 2 MgO

(i) Importance of balanced chemical equation: The balancing of a chemical equation is essential or
necessary to fulfill the requirement of Law of conservation of mass.

(ii) Balancing of chemical equations: Balancing of chemical equations may be defined as the process of making the number of different types of elements, on both side of the equations, equal.
The balancing of a chemical equation is done with the help of Hit and Trial method. In this method, the coefficients before the symbols or formulae of the reactants and products are adjusted in such a way that the total number of atoms of each element on both the side of the arrow head become equal. This balancing is also known as mass balancing because the atoms of elements on both side are equal and their masses will also be equal. The major steps involved in balancing a chemical equation are as follow Write the chemical equations in the form a word equations. Keep the reactants on the left side and the products on the right side. Separate them by an arrow whose head () points from the reactants towards the product. Convert the word equation into the symbol equation by writing the symbols and formulae of all the reactants and product. Make the atoms of different elements on both side of the equation equal by suitable method. This is known as balancing of equation. Do not change the formulae of the substance while balancing the equation. Make the equations more informative if possible.

Example :
1. Zinc reacts with dilute sulphuric acid to give zinc sulphate and hydrogen. Solution : The word equation for the reaction is Zinc + Sulphuric acid Zinc sulphate + Hydrogen The symbol equation for the same reactions is Z n + H2SO4 ZnSO4 + H2 Let us count the number of atoms of all the elements in the reactants and products on both sides for the equations. Element Zn H S O No. of atoms of reactants (L.H.S.) 1 2 1 4 No. of atoms of products (R.H.S.) 1 2 1 4

As the number of atoms of the elements involved in the reactants and products are equal, the equation is already balanced. 2. Iron reacts with water (steam) to form iron (II, III) oxide and liberates hydrogen gas. Solution :- The word equation for the reactions is Iron + Water iron (II, III) oxide + Hydrogen The symbol equation for the same reaction isFe + H2O Fe3O4 + H2 The balancing of the equations is done is the following steps:

I : Let us count the number of atoms of all the elements in the reactants and products on both sides of the
equation. Element Fe H O No. of atoms of reactants (L.H.S.) 1 2 2 No. of atoms of products (R.H.S.) 3 3 4

Thus, the number of H atoms are equal on both sides, At the same time, the number of Fe and O atoms are not equal.

II : On inspection, the number of O atoms in the reactant (H2O) is 1 while in the product (Fe3O4), these are
4. To balance the atoms, put coefficient 4 before H2O on the reactant side. The partially balance equation may be written as Fe + 4H2O Fe3O4 + H2

III : In order to equate H atoms, put coefficient 4 before H2 on the product side, As a result, the H atoms on
both side on of the equation become 8 and are thus balanced. The partially balanced equation may now be written as Fe + 4H2O Fe3O4 + H2

IV : In order to balance the Fe atoms, put coefficient 3 before Fe on the reactant side. The equation formed
may be written as 3Fe + 4H2O Fe3O4 + 4H2

Free

V : on final inspection, the number of atoms of all the elements on both sides of the equation are equal. Therefore, the equation is balanced. www.tekoclasses.com Director : SUHAG R. KARIYA (SRK Sir), Bhopal Ph.:(0755) 32 00 000 Page 6

1.3 (c) Writing State Symbols:

The chemical equations or symbol equations which we have enlisted dont mention the physical states of the reactant and product species involved in the reaction. In order to make the equation more informative, the physical state are also mentioned with the help of certain specific symbols known as state symbols. These symbols are (s) for solid state

( ) for liquid state

(g) for gaseous state (aq) for aqueous solution i.e., solution prepared in water. Sometimes a gas if evolved in a reaction is shown by the symbol () i.e., by an arrow pointing upwards. Similarly the precipitate, if formed during the reaction, is indicated by the symbol () i.e., by an arrow pointing downwards. The abbreviation ppt is also use to represent the precipitate, if formed.

(i) 2Na(s) + 2H2O ( ) 2NaOH (aq) + H2(g) or H2 () (ii) Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2(g) CaCO3 () + H2O ( ) (iii) AnNo3(aq) + NaCI(aq) AgCI () + NaNO3 (aq)

1.3 (d) Significance of State Symbols:

The state symbols are of most significance for those chemical reactions which are either accompanied by the evolution of heat (exothermic) or by the absorption of heat (endothermic). For example. 2H2(g) + O2(g) 2H2O ( ) + 572 kJ 2H2 (g) + O2(g) 2H2O(g) + 44 kJ Both these reactions are of exothermic nature because heat has been evolved in these. Howeve, actual amounts of heat are different when water is in the liquid state i.e. H2O ( ) and when it is in the vapour state.

1.3 (e) Specialties of Chemical Equation :

(i) We get the information about the substance which are taking part and formed in the reaction. (ii) We get the information about the number of molecules of elements or compounds which are either taking part or formed in the chemical reaction. (iii) We also get the information of weight of reactant or products.

For example - CaCO3 CaO

(100gm) (56 gm)

CO2 (44 gm)

Total weight of reactants is equal to the total weight of products because matter is never destroyed. In the above example total weight of calcium carbonate (reactant) is 100 gram and of product is also 100 g (56 gram + 44 gram).

(iv) In a chemical equation if any reactant or product is in gaseous state, then its volume can also be determined. For example in the above reaction volume of carbon dioxide is 22.4 liters.

(vi) In a chemical equation with the help of product we can get information about the valency as well.

For example
Mg + 2HCI MgCI2 + H2 () In the above reaction one atom of Mg displaces two atoms of hydrogen, so valency of magnesium is two.

All chemical equations are written under N.T.P. Conditions (at 273 K and 1 atmosphere pressure) if conditions are not otherwise mentioned. 1.3 (f) Limitations of Chemical Equations :
(i) We do not get information about the physical state of reactants and products.

For example solid, liquid or gas.

(ii) No information about the concentration of reactants and products is obtained. (iii) No information about the speed of reaction and sense of timing can be obtained. (iv) Information regarding the favorable conditions of the reactions such as pressure, temperature, catalyst etc. cant be obtained during the reaction. (v) We do not get information whether heat is absorbed or evolved during the reaction. (vi) We do not get information whether the reaction of reversible or irreversible. (vii) We do not get information about the necessary precautions to be taken for the completion of reaction.
The above limitations are rectified in the following manner

The physical sate of reactants and products are represented by writing them in bracket. The precipitate formed in the reaction is represented by () symbol and gaseous substance by ( ) symbol. To express the concentration, dilute or conc. is written below the symbol. Mg + H2SO4 MgSO4 + H2 (dilute)

Favorable conditions required for the completion of reaction are written above and below the arrow.
500 .Fe / Mo 2NH + 22400 Calorie heat. N2 + 3H2 3
0

200 atm

Reversible reaction is represented by ( ) symbol and irreversible reaction by () symbol.

The heat absorbed in the chemical reaction is written on the right side by putting negative (-) sign and heat evolved in the chemical reaction is written on the right side by putting positive (+) sign. N2 + 3H2 2NH3 + 22400 Calorie (Exothermic Reaction) N 2 + O2 2NO - 43200 Calorie (Endothermic Reaction)

CHEMICAL REACTIONS & CHEMICAL EQUATIONS

2.1 TYPES OF CHEMICAL REACTIONS:

2.1 (a) Addition Reactions : It is a union of two or more than two substances to from a new substance. It may be brought about by the application of heat, light electricity or pressure. For eg. H2 + CI2 2HCI
In the above example H2 and CI2 two elements combine to from hydrogen chloride. Addition reactions may be formed in the following conditions (i) When two or more elements combine to form a new compound. Synthesis reaction : It is a type of addition reaction in which a new substance is formed by the union of its component elements. For eg. N2 + 3H3 2NH3 (Habers Process) Ammonia is synthesised from its components, nitrogen and hydrogen, so it is a synthetic reaction.

All synthesis reaction are addition reactions but all addition reactions are not synthesis reactions. Other Example of synthesis reactions are 2H2 + O2 2H2O 2Mg + O2 2MgO 2Na + CI2 2NaCI (ii) When two or more compounds combine to from a new compound. For eg. NH3 + HCI NH4CI CaO + CO2 CaCO3
2 Br CH2 = CH2 + Br2 CH | CH 2 Br

(iii) When and element and a compound combine to from a new compound. For eg.
2CO + O2 2CO2 2CO2 + O2 2CO3

Only single substance is formed as a product in the addition reactions.

2.1 (b) Decomposition Reaction :

It is breaking up of a substance into simpler compounds and it may be brought about by the application of heat, light, electricity etc.

(i) A decomposition reaction brought by heat is known as thermal decomposition. For eg. CaCO3 CaO + CO2
2Pb (NO3)2
2PbO + 4NO2 + O2

(ii) Decomposition performed by electricity is known as electrolysis. For eg.

Electricity 2H2O 2H2 + O2 Electricity 2NaCI 2Na + CI2 Electricity 2AI2O3 4 AI + 3O2

(iii) A decomposition reaction brought by light is known as photo decomposition. For eg.
2AgBr 2AgCI

Light

2Ag + Br2 2Ag + CI2

Light

(iv) Decomposition reaction in which a compound decomposes into its elements is known as analysis reaction. For eg.
2HgO 2Hg + O2

2HI

H2 +

All analysis reactions are decomposition reactions, but all decomposition reactions are not analysis reactions.

Decomposition reaction is just opposite of the addition reaction. 2.1 (c) Displacement Reactions :
It involves displacement of one of the constituents of a compound by another substance and may be regarded as a displacement reaction.

For eg. (i) Zinc displaces hydrogen from sulphuric acid. Zn (s) + dill. H2SO4 (aq) ZnSO4 (aq) + H2 (ii) Iron displaces copper from a copper sulphate solution. Fe (s) + CuSO4(aq) FeSO4 (aq) + Cu

In general a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from the soluble solution of its salt.

OXIDATION AND REDUCTION :

3.1 (a) Oxidation :

Oxidation is a chemical reaction in which a substance gains oxygen or loses hydrogen. Since oxygen is an electronegative element and hydrogen is an electropositive element, so, oxidation is defined as a reaction in which a substance gains and electronegative radical or loses and electropositive radical.

(i) A reaction in which a substance gains oxygen is known as oxidation. For eg.
S + O2 SO4 2SO2 + O2 2SO3 2Ca + O2 2CaO Pbs + 2O2 PbSO4

(ii) Gain or addition of a electronegative radical For eg.

2FeCI2 + CI2 2FeCI3 Mg + CI2 MgCI2 2FeSO4 + H2SO4 + [O] Fe2(SO4)3 + H2O SnCI2 + CI2 SnCI4

(iii) Removal of a hydrogen atom. For eg. 2HCI CI2 + H2

Zn + H2SO4 ZnSO4 + H2 (iv) Removal or loss of electropositive radical or element. For e.g. 2KI + H2O2 2KOH + I2

3.1 ( b) Reduction :
It is a chemical reaction in which there is a gain of hydrogen or any electropositive radical or a loss of oxygen or electronegative radical.

REDOX REACTIONS :
Reduction is loss of electronegative element or radical. From all above example it is clear that oxidation and reduction occur side by side, i.e. there can be no oxidation without and equivalent reduction. In a reaction whenever one substance is oxidised the other is definitely reduced. The reverse is also true whenever one substance is reduced the other is oxidized. Such reactions in which oxidation and reduction take place simultaneously are known as redox reactions.

Reduction CuO + H2 Cu + H2O

Oxidation When hydrogen gas is passed through not cupric oxide, hydrogen is oxidised to water (H2O) while cupric oxide is reduced to metallic copper by loss of oxygen. Hydrogen gas helps in reduction of cupric oxide to metallic copper so it is known as reducing agent, where as cupric oxide helps in oxidation of hydrogen so it is known as oxidizing agent. A substance, which brings about reduction, is called reducing agent. A substance, which brings about oxidation, is called an oxidizing agent.

3.2 (a) Electronic Interpretation of Oxidation:

The electronic theory attempts to interpret oxidation on the basis of electron transfer. According to octet rule, atom will try to complete its octet by losing gaining or sharing electrons. Sodium chloride is an electrovalent compound and consists of an ion pair (Na+) (CI-) even in the solid state. In its formation, the neutral sodium loses and electron and becomes positively charged sodium ion. Sodium is said to be oxidised and loss of electrons is termed as oxidation. 2Na 2Na+ + 2e2Na+ + 2CI- 2NaCI

3.2 (b) Electronic Interpretation of Reduction :

Reduction which is also referred to as electronation is a process involving the gain of electrons and is the reverse of oxidation.

For example
Mg combines with oxygen and is oxidized to MgO. According to electronic theory magnesium atom loses two electrons from its outermost shell (M) and is oxidised to mG which oxygen atom gains these two electrons and gets reduced to oxide anion, hence oxidation involves loss of electrons and it is also referred as de- electronation. Reduction involves gain of electrons so it is referred to as electronation. 2Mg+ O2 2MgO Mg Mg + 2eO + 2e- O2+2 2Mg + O MgO

EFFECT OF OXIDATION REACTIONS IN EVERYDAY LIFE :

We are all aware of the fact that oxygen is most essential for sustaining life. One can live without food or even water for a number of days but not without oxygen. It is involved in a variety of actions which have wide range of effects on our daily life. Most of them are quite useful while a few may be harmful in nature. Some of these effects are briefly discussed. Some examples are-

3.3 (a) Combustion Reactions:

A chemical reaction in which a substance burns or gets oxidised in the presence of air or oxygen in called combustion reaction. For example, kerosene, coal, charcoal, wood etc. burn in air and thus, undergo combustion. Methane (CH4) a major constituent of natural gas undergoes combustion in excess of oxygen upon heating. CH4(g) + 2O2(g) CO2(g) + 2H2O ( ) Methane Similarly, butane (C4H10) the main constituent of L.P.G. also undergoes combustion. C4H10 (g) + 13/2O2(g) 4CO2(g) + 5H2O(g) Butane All combustion reactions are of exothermic nature and are accompanied by release of heat energy. The human body may be regarded as a furnace or machine in which various food stuffs that we eat undergo combustion or oxidation. The heat energy evolved keeps our body working. Carbohydrates such as glucose, fructose, starch etc. Are the major source of energy to the human body. They undergo combustion with the help of oxygen that we inhale to form carbon dioxide and water. For example. C5H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) 6CO2(g) + 6H2O ( ) + energy All combustion reactions are not accompanied by flame. Combustion is basically oxidation accompanied by release of energy.

3.3 (b) Respiration :

Respiration is the most important biochemical reaction which releases energy in the cells. When we breathe in air, oxygen enters our lungs and passes into thousands of smalls air sacs (alveoli). These air sacs occupy a large area of membranes and oxygen diffuses from the membranes into blood. It binds itself to hemoglobin present in red blood cells and is carried to millions of cells in the body. Respiration occurs in these cells and is accompanied by the combustion of glucose producing carbon dioxide and water. Since the reaction is of exothermic nature, the energy released during respiration carry out many cell reactions and also keeps our hart and muscles working. It also provides the desired warmth to the body. Both carbon dioxide and water pas back into the blood and we ultimately breathe them out. Respiration takes place in the cells of all living beings.

Fish takes up oxygen dissolved in water through their gills while plants take up air through small pores (stomata) present in their leaves.

3.3 (c) Harmful Effects of Combustion :

We have discussed the utility of combustion in releasing energy which our body needs to keep warm and working; however, combustion has harmful effects also. The environmental pollution is basically due to combustion. Poisonous gases like carbon monoxide (CO), sulphur dioxide (SO2) sulphur trioxide (SO3) and oxide of nitrogen (NOX) etc. are being released into the atmosphere as a result of variety of combustion reaction which are taking place. They pollute the atmosphere and make our lives miserable. In addition to these, other harmful effects of combustion are corrosion and rancidity. These are briefly discussed.

(i) Corrosion : Corrosion may be defined as the process of slow eating up of the surfaces of certain metals
when kept in open for a long time. Quite often, when we open the bonnet of a car after a long time, we find a deposit around the terminals of the battery. This is an example of corrosion. Black coating on the surface of silver and green layer on the surface of copper are the examples of corrosion. In case of iron, corrosion is called rusting. Rust is a chemical substance brown in colour and is formed by the chemical action of moist air (containing O2 and H2O) on iron. It is basically an oxidation reaction and the formula of rust is Fe2O3, xH2O. It is very slow in nature and once started keeps on. Both corrosion and rusting are very harmful and case damage to the building, Railway tracks, cars and other objects/ materials where metals are used. We quite often hear that an old building has collapsed on its own causing loss of both lives and property. This is on account of the rusting of iron which is used in making the structure particularly the roof.

(ii) Rancidity : Oxidation has damaging effects on food and eatables. When the fats and oils present in
butter and margarine are oxidised, they become rancid. As a result, their smell and taste change. They become quite unpleasant. This is known a rancidity. It can be checked in a number of away.

(A) Manufacturer sometimes add certain food additives to the food materials. These are known as
antioxidant and check their oxidation.

(B) Keeping food in air tight containers prevents its oxidation. (C) Refrigeration of food also slows down rancidity because the temperature inside refrigerator is
very low and direct contact with air or oxygen is avoided.

(D) Chips manufacturers generally flush their bags with nitrogen before packing so that they may
not be oxidised.

4.1 ACIDS :
Substances with sour taste are regarded as avoids. Lemon juice, vinegar, grape fruit juice and spoilt milk etc. taste sour since they are acidic. Many substances can be identified as acids based on their taste but some fo the acids like sulphuric acid have very strong action on the skin which means that they are corrosive in nature. In such case it would be according to modern definitionAn acid may be defined as a substance which release one or more H+ ions in aqueous solution. Acids are mostly obtained from natural sources. One the basis of their source avids are of two types -

(a) Mineral acids 4.1 (a) Mineral Acids :

4.1 (c) Chemical Properties of Acids:

1. Action with metals: Dilute acids like dilute HCI and dilute H2SO4 react with certain active metals to
evolve hydrogen gas. 2Na(s) + 2HCI (dilute) 2NaCI(aq) + H2 (g) Mg(s) + H2SO4 (dilute) MgSO4 (aq) + H2(g) Metals which can displace hydrogen from dilute acids are known as avtive metals. e.g. Na, K, Zn, Fe, Ca, Mg etc. Zn(s) + H2SO4 (dilute) ZnSO4(aq) + H2(g) The active metals which lie above hydrogen in the activity series are electropositive in nature. Their atoms lose electrons to form positive ions and these electrons are accepted by H+ ions of the acid. As a result, H2 is evolved.

For e.g.
2+ Zn(s) Zn (aq) + 2e-

ZH+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + 2eZn(s) + 2H+ (aq)

2 H2 (g) + SO4 (aq)

Zn++(aq) + H2(g)

2. Action with metal oxides : Acids react with metal oxides to form salt and water. These reactions are
mostly carried out upon heating.

Carbonic acids (H2CO3), phosphoric acid (H3PO4), formic acid (HCOOH), acetic acid (CH3COOH) are weak acids. CH3COOH + Water CH3COO-(aq) + H+ (aq)

In general MINERAL acids are STRONG acids while ORGANIC acids are WEAK acids. 4.2 Base :
Substances with bitter taste and soapy touch are regarded as bases. Since many bases like sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide have corrosive action on the skin and can even harm the body, so according to the modern definition a base may be defined as a substance capable of releasing one or more OH- ions in aqueous solution.

4.2 (a) Alkalies :

Some bases like sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide are water soluble. These are known as alkalies. Therefore water soluble bases are known as alkalies eg. KOH, NaOH. A list of a few typical bases along with their chemical formulae and uses is given belowName Commercial Name Caustic Soda Chemical Formula NaOH Uses In manufacture of soap, paper, pulp, rayon, refining of petroleum etc. In alkaline storage batteries, manufacture of soap, absorbing CO2 gas etc. In manufacture of bleaching powder softening of hard water etc.

4.2 (c) Strong and Weak Bases :

(i) Strong base : A base contains one or more hydroxyl (OH) groups which it releases in aqueous
solution upon ionisation. Bases which are almost completely ionised in water, are known as strong bases.

For e.g.
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (OH) groups which it releases in aqueous solution upon ionisation. Bases which are almost completely ionised in water, are known as strong bases. NaOH(s) + Water Na+ (aq) + OH-(aq) KOH(s) + Water K+ (aq) + OH- (aq) Both NaOH and KOH are deliquescent in nature which means that they absorb moisture from air and get liquefied.

(ii) Weak bases : Bases that are feebly ionised on dissolving in water and reduce a low concentration of
hydroxyl ions are called weak bases.

eg. Ca(OH)2, NH4OH

4.3

CONDUCTING NATURE OF ACID AND BASE SOLUTIONS :

Acids are the substances which contain one or more hydrogen atoms in their molecules which they can release in water as H+ ions. Similarly, bases are the substances which contain one or more hydroxyl groups in their molecules which they an release in water as OH- ions. Since the ions are the carries of charge therefore, the aqueous solutions of both acids and bases are conductors of electricity.

Experiment :
In a glass beaker, take a dilute solution of hydrochloric acid (HCI). Fix two small nails of iron in a rubber cork in the beaker as shown in the figure. Connect the nails to the terminals of a 6 volt battery through a bulb. Switch on the current and bulb will start glowing. This shows that the electric current has passed through the acid solution. As the current is carried by the movement of ions, this shows that is solution HCI has ionised to give H+ and CI- ions. Current will also be in a position to pass if the beaker contains in it dilute H2SO4 (H+ ions are released in aqueous solution). Similarly, aqueous solutions containing NaOH or KOH will also be conducting due to release of OH- ions.

Bulb will not glow if glucose (C6H12O6) or ethyl alcohol (C2H6O) solution is kept in the beaker. This means that both of them will not give any ions in solution.

4.5 ROLE OF WATER IN THE INISATION OF ACIDS AND BASES :

Substances can act as acids and bases only in the presence of water in aqueous solution. In dry state which is also called anhydrous state, these characters cannot be shown Actually, water helps in the ionisation of acids or base by separating the ions. This is also known as dissociation and is explained on the basis of a theory called Arrhenius theory of acids and bases. In the dry state, hydrochloric acid is known as hydrogen chloride gas i.e. HCI(g). It is not in the position to give any H+ ions. Therefore, the acidic character is not shown. Now, let

us pass the gas through water taken in a beaker with the help of glass pipe. H2O molecules are of polar nature which means that they have partial negative charge (+ ) on oxygen atom and partial positive charge

( ) on hydrogen atoms. They will try to form a sort of envelope around the hydrogen atoms as well as chlorine atoms present in the acid and thus help in their separation as ions. These ions are said to be hydrated ions. HCI(g) + Water H+ (aq) + CI- (aq) (Hydrated ions) The electrical current is carried through these ions. The same applied to other acids as well as bases. Thus we conclude that -

(i) acids can release H+ ions only in aqueous solution. (ii) base can release OH- ions only in aqueous solution. (iii) hydration helps in the release of ions from acids and bases.

4.6

DILUTION OF ACIDS AND BASES :

Acids and bases are mostly water soluble and can be diluted by adding the required amount of water. With the addition of water the amount of acid or base per unit volume decrease and dilution occurs. The process is generally exothermic in nature. A concentrated acid like sulphuric acid or nitric acid is to be diluted with water. Acid should be added dropwise to water taken in the container with constant stirring.

Heat is evolved in all naturalisation reactions. If both acid and base are strong, the value of heat energy evolved remains same irrespective of their nature.

For e.g.
HCI (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCI (aq) + H2O ( ) + 57.1 KJ (Strong acid) (Strong base)

HNO3 (aq) + KOH(aq) KNO3(aq) + H3O ( ) + 57.1 J (Strong acid) (Strong base)

Strong acids and strong bases are completely ionised of their own in the solution. No energy is needed for their ionisation. Since the action of base and anion of acid on both sides of the equation cancels out completely, the heat evolved is given by the following reaction H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) H2O ( ) + 57.1 KJ

5.3

APPLICATIONS OF NEUTRALISATION :
(i) People particularly of old age suffer from acidity problems in the stomach which is caused mainly due to release of excessive gastric juices containing HCI. The acidity is neutralised by antacid tablets which contain sodium hydrogen carbonate (baking soda), magnesium hydroxide etc. (ii) The sting of bees and ants contain formic acid. Its corrosive and poisonous effect can be neutralised by rubbing soap which contains NaOH (an alkali). (iii) The stings of wasps contain an alkali and its poisonous effect can be neutralised by an acid like acetic acid (present in vinegar). (iv) Farmers generally neutralise the effect of acidity in the soil caused by acid rain by adding slaked lime (Calcium hydroxide) to the soil.

5.4 pH SCALE :

A scale for measuring hydrogen ion concentration in a solution called pH scale, has been developed by S.P.L. sorrensen. The P in pH stands for potenz in German meaning power. On the pH scale we can measure pH from O (very acidic) to 14 (very alkaline). pH should be thought of simply as a number which indicates the acidic or basic nature of solution. Higher the hydrogen ion concentration, Lower is the pH scale. Characteristic of pH scale are (i) For acidic solution, pH < 7 (ii) For alkaline solution, pH > 7 (iii) For neutral solution, pH = 7

5.4

(a) Universal Indicator Papers for pH Values :

Indicators like litmus, phenolphthalein and methyl orange are used in predicting the acidic and basic characters of the solutions. However universal indicator papers have been developed to predict the pH of different solutions. Such papers represent specified colours for different concentrations in terms of pH values. The exact pH of the solution can be measured with the help of pH meter which gives instant reading and it can be relied upon. pH values of a few common solutions are given below Solution Gastric juices Lemon juices Vinegar Bear Tomato juice Coffee Acid rain Milk Saliva Approximate pH 1.0 3.0 2.2 - 2.4 3.0 4.0 5.0 4.1 4.5 5.5 5.6 6.5 6.5 7.5 Solution Pure water Blood Baking soda solution Sea water Washing soda solution Lime water House hold ammonia Sodium hydroxide Approximate pH 7.0 7.36 7.42 8.4 9.0 10.5 12.0 11.9 14.0

5.4 (b) Significance of pH in daily life :

(i) pH i our digestive system : Dilute hydrochloric acid produced in our stomach helps in the digestion
of food. However, excess of acid causes indigestion and leads to pain as well as irritation. The pH of the digestive system in the stomach will decrease. The excessive acid can be neutralised with the help of antacid which are recommended by the doctors. Actually, these are group of compounds (basic in nature) and have hardly and side effects. A very popular antacid is Milk of Magnesia which is insoluble magnesium hydroxide. Aluminum hydroxide and sodium hydrogen carbonate can also be used for the same purpose. These antacids will bring the pH of the system back to its normal value. The pH of human blood varies between 7.36 to 7.42. it is maintained by the soluble bicarbonates and carbonic acid present in the blood. These are known as

buffers.

(ii) pH change leads to tooth decay : The white enamel coating on our teeth is of insoluble calcium
phosphate which is quite hard. It is not affected by water. However, when the pH in the mouth falls below 5.5 the enamel gets corroded. Water will have a direct access to the roots and decay of teeth will occur. The bacteria present in the mouth break down the sugar that we eat in one form or the other to acids, Lactic acid is one these. The formation of these acids causes decrease in pH. It is therefore advisable to avoid eating surgery foods and also to keep the mouth clean so that sugar and food particles may not be present. The tooth pastes contain in them some basic ingredients and they help in neutralising the effect of the acids and also increasing the pH in the mouth.

(iii) Role of pH in curing stings by insects: The stings of bees and ants contain methanoic acid (or
formic acid). When stung, they cause lot of pain and irritation. The cure is in rubbing the affected area with soap. Sodium hydroxide present in the soap neutralises acid injected in the body and thus brings the pH back to its original level bringing relief to the person who has been stung. Similarly, the effect of stings by wasps containing alkali is neutralised by the application of vinegar which is ethanoic acid (or acetic acid)

(iv) Soil pH and plant growth : The growth of plants in a particular soil is also related to its pH.
Actually, different plants prefer different pH range for their growth. it is therefore, quite important to provide the soil with proper pH for their healthy growth. Soils with high iron minerals or with vegetation tend to become acidic. This soil pH can reach as lows as 4. The acidic effect can be neutralised by liming the soil which is carried by adding calcium hydroxide. These are all basic in nature and have neutralising effect. Similarly, the soil with excess of lime stone or chalk is usually alkaline. Sometimes, its pH reaches as high as 8.3 and is quite harmful for the plant growth. In order to reduce the alkaline effect, it is better to add some decaying organic matter (compost or manure). The soil pH is also affected by the acid rain and the use of fertilizers. Therefore soil treatment is quite essential.

ACIDS, BASES AND SALTS

6.1

SALTS :
A substance formed by neutralization of an acid with a base is called a salt.

For e.g.
Ca (OH)2 + H2SO4 CaSO4 + H2O 2Ca(OH)2 + 4HNO3 2Ci(NO3)2 + 2H2O NaOH + HCI NaCI + H2O

6.2

CLASIFFICATION OF SALTS :
Salts have been classified on the basis of chemical formulae as well as pH values.

6.2 (a) Classification Based on Chemical Formulae :

(i) Normal salts : A normal salt is the one which does not contain any ionsable hydrogen atom or
hydroxyl group. This means that it has been formed by the complete neutralisation of an acid by a base. For e.g. NaCI, KCI, NaNO2, K2 SO4 etc.

(ii) Acidic salts : an acidic salt still contains some replaceable hydrogen atoms, This means that the neutralisation of acid by the base is no complete. For example, sodium hydrogen sulphate (NaHCO4), sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCI3) etc. (iii) Basic salts : A basic salt still contains some replaceable hydroxyl groups. This means that the
neutralisation of base by the acid is not complete. For example, basic lead nitrate Pb (OH) NO3. basic lead chloride, Pb(OH)CI etc.

6.2 (b) Classification Based on pH Values :

Salts are formed by the reaction between acids and bases. Depending upon the nature of the acids and bases or upon the pH values, the salt solutions are of three types.

(i) Neutral salt solutions : Salt solutions of strong acids and strong bases are neutral and have pH
equal to 7. They do not change the colour of litmus solution. For e.g. : NaCI, NaNO3, Na2SO4 etc.

(ii) Acidic salt solutions : Salt solutions of strong acids and weak bases are of acidic nature and have pH less than 7. They change the colour of blue litmus solution to red. For e.g. (NH4)2SO4, NH4CI etc.
In both these salts, the base NH4OH is weak while the acids H2SO4 and HCI are strong.

(iii) Basic salt solutions : Salt solutions of strong bases and weak acids are of basic nature and have pH more than 7. They change the colour of red litmus solution to blue.

For e.g. Na2CO3,K3PO4 etc.

In both the salts, bases NaOH and KOH are strong while the acids H2CO3 and H3PO4 are weak.

6.3

USES OF SALTS :
(i) As a table salt, (ii) In the manufacture of butter and cheese. (iii) In leather Industry. (iv) In the manufacturing of washing soda and baking soda. (v) For the preparation of sodium hydroxide by electrolysis of brine. (vi) Rock salt is spread on ice to melt it in cold countries.

SOME IMPORTANT CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS : 6.4 SODIUM CHLORIDE - COMMON SALT (TABLE SALT) :
Sodium chloride (NaCI) also called common salt or table salt is the most essential part of our diet. Chemically it is formed by the reaction between solutions of sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid. Sea water is the major source of sodium chloride where it is present in disserved form along with other soluble salts such as chlorides and sulphates of calcium and magnesium. it is separated by some suitable methods. Deposits of the salts are found in different part of the world and is known as rock salt. When pure, it is a white crystalline solid, However, it is often brown due to the presence of impurities.

6.4 (a) Uses :

(i) Essential for life : Sodium chloride is quite essential for life. Biologically, it has a number of function to
perform such as in muscle contraction, in conduction of nerve impulse in the nervous system and is also converted in hydrochloric acid which helps in the digestion of food in the stomach. When we sweat, there is loss of sodium chloride along with water. It leads to muscle cramps. Its loss has to be compensated suitably by giving certain salt preparations to the patient. Electrol powder is an important substitute of common salt.

(ii) Raw material for chemical: Sodium chloride is also a very useful raw material for different chemical.
A few out of these are hydrochloric acid (HCI), washing soda (Na2CO3.10H2O), baking soda (NaHCO3) etc. Upon electrolysis of a strong solution of the salt (brine), sodium hydroxide, chlorine and hydrogen are obtained. Apart from these, it is used in leather industry for the leather tanning. In severe cold, rock salt is spread on icy roads to melt ice. it is also used as fertilizer for sugar beet.

6.4 (b) Electrolysis of aqueous solution of NaCI :

Electrolys is 2NaCO (s) + 2H2O ( ) 2NaOH(aq) + CI2(g) + H2(g)

reaction takes place in two steps (i) 2CI- CI2(g) + 2e- (anode reaction)

(ii) 2H2O + 2e- H2 + OH- (cathode reaction)

(ii) It is largely used in the treatment of acid spillage and in medicine as soda bicarb, which acts as an antacid. (iii) It is an important chemical in th textile, tanning, paper and ceramic industries. (iv) It is also used in a particular type of fire extinguishers. The following diagram shows a fire extinguisher that uses NaHCI3 and H2SO4 to produce CO2 gas. The extinguisher consists of a conical metallic container (A) with a nozzle (Z) at one end. A strong solution of NaHCO3 is kept in the container. A glass ampoule (P) containing H2SO4 is attached to a knob (K) and placed inside the NaHCO3 solution. The ampoule can be broken by hitting the knob. As soon as the acid comes in contact with the NaHCO3 solution, CO2 gas is formed. When enough pressure in built up inside the container, CO2 gas rushes out through the nozzle (A). Since CO2 does not support combustion, a small fire can be put out by pointing the nozzle towards the fire. The gas is produced according to the following reaction.
2NaHCO3 (aq) + H3SO4 (aq) Na2SO4 (aq) + 2H2O ( ) + 2CO2(g)

HYDRATED SATLS - SALTS CONTAINING WATER OF CRYSTALLISATION:

Certain salts contain definite amount of some H2O molecules loosely attached to their own molecules. These are known as hydrated salts and are of crystalline nature. The molecules of H2O present are known as water of crystallisation. In colourd crystalline and hydrated salts, the molecules of water of crystallisation also account for their characteristic colours. Thus, upon heating of hydrated salt, its colour changes since molecules of water of crystallisation are removed and the salt becomes anhydrous, For example, take a few crystals of blue vitriol i.e. hydrated copper sulphate in a dry test tube or boiling tube. Heat the tube from below. The salt will change to a white anhydrous powder and water droplet will appear on the walls of the tube. Cool the tube and add a few droops of water again. The white anhydrous powder will again acquire blue colour.

METALS AND NON-METALS

7.1

INTRODUCTION:
There are 118 chemical elements known at present. One the basis of their properties, all these elements can be broadly divided into two main groups: Metals and Non-Metals. A majority of the known elements are metals. All the metals are solids, except mercury, which is a liquid metal. There are 22 non-metals, out of which, 10 non-metals are solids, one non-metal (bromine) is liquid and the remaining 11 non-metals are gases.

7.2

POSITION OF METALS AND NON-METALS IN THE PERIODIC TABLE :

The metals are placed on the left hand side and in the centre of the periodic table. One the other hand, the non-metals are placed on the right hand side of the periodic table. This has been shown in the figure. It may be noted that hydrogen (H) is an exception because it is non-metal but is placed on the left hand side of the periodic table. Metals and non-metals are separated from each other in the periodic table by a zig-zag line. The elements close to zig-zag line show properties of both the metals and the non-metals. They show some properties of metals and some properties of non-metals. These are called metalloids. The common examples of metalloids are boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te) and polonium (Pi).

In general, the metallic character decreases on going from left to right side in the periodic table. However, on going down the group, the metallic character increases.

The elements at the extreme left of the periodic table are most metallic and those on the right are least metallic or non-metallic.

7.3

GENERAL PROPERTIES OF METALS AND NON-METALS :

7.3 (a) Electronic Configuration of Metals :

The atoms of metals have 1 to 3 electrons in their outermost shells. For example, all the alkali metals have one electron in their outermost shells (lithium 2, 1; sodium 2,8,1: potassium 2,8,8,1 etc.) Sodium, magnesium and aluminum are metals having 1,2 and 3 electrons respectively in their valence shells. Similarly, other metals have 1 to 3 electron in their outermost shells.

It may be noted that hydrogen and helium are exception because hydrogen is a non-metal having only electron in the outermost shell (K shell) of its atom and helium is also a non-metal having 2 electron in the outermost shell (K shell).
7.3 (b) Physical Properties of Metals:
The important physical properties of metals are discussed below:

(i) Metals are solids at room temperature: All metals (except mercury) are solids at room
temperature.

MERCURY is a liquid at room temperature. (ii) Metals are malleable: metals are generally malleable. Malleability means that the metals can be
beaten with a hammer into very thin sheets without breaking. Gold and silver are among the best malleable metals. Aluminum and copper re also highly malleable metals.

(iii) Metals are ductile : It means that metals can be drawn (stretched) into this wires. Gold and silver
are the most ductile metals. Copper and aluminum are also very ductile, and therefore, these can be drawn into this wires which are used in electrical wiring.

(iv) Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity: All metals are good conductors of heat.
The conduction of heat is called thermal conductivity. Silver is the best conductor of heat. Copper and aluminum are also good conductors of heat and therefore, they are used for making household utensil. Lead is the poorest conductor of heat. Mercury metal is also poor conductor of heat. Metals are also good conductors of electricity. The electrical and thermal conductivities of metals are due to the presence of free electrons in them. Among all the metals, silver is the best conductor electricity. Copper and aluminum are the next best conductors of electricity. Since silver is expensive, therefore, copper and aluminum are commonly used for making electric wires.

(v) Metals are lustrous and can be polished: Most of the metals have shine and they can be
polished. The shining appearance of metals is also known as metallic lustre. For example, gold, silver and copper metals have metallic lustre.

SILVER is best conductor of heat and electricity.

(vi) Metals have high densities : Most of the metals are heavy and have high densities. For example,
the density of mercury metal if very high (13.6 g cm ). However, there are some exceptions. Sodium, potassium, magnesium and aluminum have low densities. Densities of metals are generally proportional to their atomic masses. The smaller the metal atom, the smaller it its density.
-3

(vii) Metals are hard : Most of the metals are hard. But all metals are not equally hard. Metals like iron,
copper, aluminum etc. are quite hard. They cannot be cut with a knife. Sodium and potassium are common exceptions which are soft and can be easily cut with a knife.

(viii) Metals have high melting and boiling points : Most of the metals (except sodium and
potassium) have high melting and boiling points.

Tungsten has highest melting point (34100C) among all the metals.
(ix) Metals are rigid : Most of the metals are rigid and they have high tensile strength. (x) Metals are sonorous: Most of the metals are sonorous i.e., they make sound when hit with an
object.

7.3 (c) Electronic Configuration of Non-Metals :

The atoms and non-metals have usually 4 to 8 electrons in their outermost shells. For example, Carbon (At. No6), Nitrogen (At. No. 7), Oxygen (At. No.8 ), Fluorine (At. No. 9) and Neon (At. No. 10) have respectively 4,5,6,7,8 electrons in their outermost shells.

7.3 (d) Physical Properties Of Non-Metals:

The important physical properties of non-metals are listed below :

(i) Non-metals are brittle. (ii) Non- metals are not ductile. (iii) Non-metals are bad conductor of heat and electricity. (Exception: Graphite is a good conductor because of the presence of free electrons.) (iv) Non-metals are not lustrous and cannot be polished. (Exception: Graphite and Iodine are lustrous nonmetals.) (v) Non-metals may be solid, liquid, or gases at room temperature. (vi) Non-metals are generally soft. (Exception: Diamond, an allotropic from of non-metal Carbon, is the hardest natural substance known). (vii) Non-metals have generally low melting and boiling points. (Exception: Graphite another allotropic form of Carbon, has a melting point of about 37300C). (viii) Non-metals have low densities. (Exception : Iodine has high density).

Graphite is a good conductor of electricity, lustrous and has very high melting point.

7.3 (e) Chemical Properties of Metals :

The atoms of the metals have usually 1, 2 or 3 electrons in their outermost shells. These outermost electrons are loosely held by their nuclei. Therefore, the metal atoms can easily lose their outermost electrons to from positively charged ions. For example, sodium metal can lose outermost one electron to form positively charged ions, Na+. After losing the outermost electron, it gets stable electronic configuration of the noble gas (Ne : 2, 8 ), Similarly, magnesium can lose two outermost electron to from Mg2+ ions and aluminum can lose its three outermost electrons to from Al3+ ions. Na (2, 8, 1) Mg (2, 8, 2) Al (2, 8, 3) Na+ + e(2, 8) Mg + 2e(2, 8) Al3+ + 3e(2, 8)
2+

The metal atoms lose electrons and form positively charged ions, therefore, the metals are called electropositive elements.
Some of the important chemical properties of metals are discussed below :

(i) Reaction with oxygen : Metals react with oxygen to from oxides. These oxides are basic in nature.
For example, sodium metal reacts with oxygen of the air and form sodium oxide. ] 4 Na(s) + O2(g) 2 Na3O(s) Sodium oxide

Sodium oxide reacts with water to form and alkali called sodium hydroxide. Therefore, sodium oxide is a basic oxide. Na2O(s) + H32O ( ) 2NaOH(aq) Sodium hydroxide

Due to the formation of sodium hydroxide (which is an alkali), the solution of sodium oxide in water turns red litmus blue (common property of all alkaline solutions).

When metal oxides are dissolved in water, they give alkaline solutions.
Similarly, magnesium is a metal and it reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide. However, magnesium is less reactive than sodium and therefore, heat is required for the reaction. 2Mg (s) + O2 (g)
Heat

2 MgO(s)

Thus, when a metal combines with oxygen, it loses its valence electrons and forms positively charged metal ions. We can say that oxidation of metal takes palace.

Reactivity of metals with oxygen:

All metals do not react with oxygen with equal ease. The reactivity of oxygen depends upon the nature of the metal. Some metals react with oxygen even at room temperature, some react on on heating while still others react only on strong heating.

Potassium 2Ca(s) + Calcium Oxygen O2(g) Oxygen Potassium oxide 2 CaO(s) Calcium oxide

(ii) Reaction with water : Metals react with water to form metal oxide or metals hydroxide and hydrogen.
The reactivity of metals towards water depends upon the nature of the metals. Some metals react even with cold water, some react with water only on heating while there are some metals do not react even with steam. For example,

(A) Sodium and potassium metals react vigorously with cold water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas is liberated.
2 Na(s) + Sodium 2K (s) + Potassium 2H2O ( ) 2NaOH(aq) Cold water Sodium hydroxide 2H2O ( ) 2KOH (aq) Potassium hydroxide + H2(g) Hydrogen H2 (g) Hydrogen

The reaction between sodium and water is so violent that the hydrogen evolved catches fire.
(B) Calcium reacts with cold water to form calcium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The reaction is less violent.
Ca (s) + Calcium 2H2O ( ) Cold water

Ca (OH)2 (aq) + H2(g) calcium hydroxide

(C) Magnesium reacts very slowly with cold water but reacts rapidly with hot boiling water forming magnesium oxide and hydrogen. Mg (s) + H2O ( ) H2(g) MgO(s) + Magnesium Boiling Magnesium water oxide

4H2(g) Hydrogen

(F) Metals like copper, silver and gold do not react with water even under strong conditions. The order of reactivities of different metals with water is : Na > Mg > Zn > Fe > Cu

Reactivety with water decreases

(iii) Reaction with dilute acids : Many metals react with dilute acids and liberate hydrogen gas. Only less reactive metals such as copper, silver, gold etc. do into liberate hydrogen from dilute acids. The reactions of metals with dilute hydrochloric acid (HCI) and dilute sulphuric acid (H2SO4) are similar. With dil. HCI, they given metal chlorides and hydrogen whereas with dil. H2SO4, they give metal sulphates and hydrogen.

Dilute nitric acid (HNO3) is an oxidising agent which oxidises metals, but does not produce hydrogen.
The reactivity of different metals is different with the same acid. For example:

(A) Sodium, magnesium and calcium react violently with dilute hydrochloric acid (HCI) or dilute sulphuric acid (H2SO4) liberating hydrogen gas and corresponding metal salt.
2Na(s) Sodium + 2HCI (aq) Hydrochloric acid + H2SO4(aq) Sulphuric acid 2NaCI(aq) Sodium chloride Na2SO4(aq) Sodium sulphate + H2(g) Hydrogen

(C) Copper does not react with dill. HCI or dill H2SO4.

Therefore copper is even less reactive that iron. The order of reactivity of different metals with dilute acid:

Na

>

Mg

>

AI

>

Zn

>

Fe

>

Cu

Reactivity with dill acids decreases from sodium to copper. (iv) Reactions of metals with salt solutions: When a more reactive metals is placed in a salt solution of less
reactive metal, then the more reactive metal displaces the less reactive metal from its salt solution. For example, we will take a solution of copper sulphate (blue coloured solution) and put a strip of zinc metal in the solution. It is observed that the blue colour of copper sulphate fades gradually and copper metals are deposited on the zinc strip. this means that the following reaction occurs : Zn(s) Zinc + CuSO4 (aq) Copper sulphate (Blue solution) + ZnSO4(aq) Zinc sulphate (Colourless solution) Cu(s) Copper

Here, zinc displaces copper from its salt solution. However, if we take zinc sulphate solution and put a string of copper metal in this solution, no reaction occurs. ZnSO4(aq) Zinc sulphate + Cu(s) Copper No reaction

This means that copper cannot displace zinc metal from its solution. Thus, we can conclude that zinc is more
reactive than copper. However, if we put gold or platinum strip in the copper sulphate solution, then copper is not displaced by gold or platinum. Thus, gold and platinum are less reactive than copper.

7.4

REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS:

7.4 (a) Introduction:

We have learnt that some metals are chemically very reactive while others are less reactive or do not react at all. On the basis of reactivity of different metals with oxygen, water acids as well as displacement reactions, the metals have been arranged in the decreasing order of their reactivities. The arrangement of metals in order of decreasing reactivities is called reactivity series or activity series of metals. The activity series of some common metals is given in Table. In this table, the most reactive metal is placed at the top whereas the least reactive metal is placed at the bottom. As we go down the series the chemical reactivity of metals decreases.

REACTIVITY SERIES OF METALS

Lithium Potassium Barium Sodium Calcium Magnesium Aluminum Li K Ba Na Ca Most reactive metal

Metals more reactive than hydrogen

Reactivity decreae s s

Mg Al Zn Fe Ni Sn Pb

Reactivity increae s s

Zinc Iron Nickel Tin Lead

Hydrogen

H
Cu Hg Ag Au Pt Least reactive metal

Metals less reactive than hydrogen

Copper Mercury Silver Gold Platinum

7.4 (b) Reasons for Different Reactivities:

In the activity series of metals, the basis of reactivity is the tendency of metals to lose electrons. If a metals can lose electrons easily to form positive ions, it will react readily with other substances. Therefore, it will be a reactive metal. On the other hand, if a metal loses electrons less rapidly to form a positive ion, it will react slowly with the other substances. Therefore, such a metal will be less reactive. For example, alkali metals such as sodium and potassium lose electrons very readily to from alkali metal ions, therefore, they are very reactive.

7.4 (c) Displacement of Hydrogen from Acids by Metals :

All metals above hydrogen in the reactivity series (i.e. more active than hydrogen) like zinc, magnesium, nickel can liberate hydrogen from acids like HCI and H2SO4. These metals have greater tendency to lose electrons than hydrogen. Therefore, the H+ ions in the acids will accept electrons and give hydrogen gas as :

M Metals H+ (aq) + e(From acid) H +H

M+ (aQ) + e H H2

The metals which are below hydrogen in the reactivity series (i.e. les reactive than hydrogen) like copper, silver, gold cannot liberate hydrogen form acids like HCI, H2SO4 etc. These metals have lesser tendency to lose electrons than hydrogen. Therefore, they cannot lose electrons to H+ ions.

7.4 (d) Reactivity Series and Displacement Reactions :

The reactivity series can also explain displacement reactions. In general, a more reactive metal (placed higher in the activity series) can displace the less reactive metal from its solution. For example, zinc, displaces copper form its solution. Zn (s) + CuSO4 (aq) ZnSO4 (aq) + Cu(s)

7.4 (e) Usefulness of Activity Series:

The activity series is very useful and it gives the following information:

(i) The metal which is higher in the activity series is more reactive than the other. Lithium is the most reactive and platinum is the least reactive. (ii) The metals which have been placed above hydrogen are more reactive than hydrogen and these can displace hydrogen from its compounds like water and acids to liberate hydrogen gas. (iii) The metals which are placed below hydrogen are less reactive than hydrogen and these cannot displace hydrogen from its compounds like water and acids. (iv) A more reactive metal (placed higher in the activity series) can displace the less reactive metal from its solution. (v) Metals at the top of the series are very reactive and, therefore, they do not occur free in nature. The metals at the bottom of the series are least reactive and, therefore, they normally occur free in nature. For example, gold, present in the reactivity series is found in Free State in nature.

METALS AND NON-METALS

8.1

HOW METALS REACT WITH NON-METALS :

Octet Rule : Octet rule was given by G.N. Lewis and W.Kossel in 1916.
According to actet rule an atom whose outermost shell contains 8 electrons (octet) is stable. This rule, however, does not hold good in case of certain small atoms like helium (He) in which presence of 2 electrons (duplet) in the outermost shell in considered to be the condition of stability. Examples of elements whose atoms have fully filled or 8 e- in their outermost shell are

Element

Atomic Number
10 18 36

Electronic configuration
2,8 2,8,8 2,8,18,8

No. of valence electrons

8 8 8

Neon Argon Krypton

Ne Ar Kr

All noble gases contain 8 valence electrons (except He in which 2 valence electrons are present) and are stable. They do not usually form bonds with other elements.
Atoms combine with one another to achieve the inert gas electron arrangement and become stable. Atoms from chemical bonds to achieve stability by acquiring the inert gas configuration or by completing their octet or duplet (in case of small atoms) in outermost shell. An atom can achieve the inert gas electron arrangement in three ways -

(i) by losing one or more electrons . (ii) by gaining one or more electrons. (iii) by sharing one or more electrons.

Noble gases do not usually from bonds with other elements. because they are stable. So. atoms of elements have the tendency to combine with one another to achieve the inert gas configuration.

8.2

CONCEPT OF IONIC BOND :

Except the elements of group 18 of the periodic table all the elements for the remaining group, at normal temperature and pressure, are not stable in independent state. These elements from stable compounds either by combining with the other atoms or with their own atoms. When in gross electronic configuration of the elements there are 8 electrons present then these elements do not take part in the chemical reaction because atoms containing 8 electrons in their outermost shell are associated with extra stability and less energy. Atoms with other electronic configuration, which do not contain eight electrons in their outermost shell, are unstable and to achieve the stability they chemically combine in such a manner that they achieve eight electrons in their outermost shell. Two or more than two types of atoms mutually combine with each other to achieve stable configuration of eight valence electrons. Attempt to achieve eight electrons in the outermost orbit of a element is the reason behind its chemical reactivity or chemical bonding.

8.3

IONIC OR ELECTROVALENT BOND:

This bond is formed by the atoms of electropositive and electronegative elements. Electropositive elements lose electrons in chemical reaction and electronegative elements gain electrons in chemical reaction. When an atom of electropositive element come in contact with that of an electronegative element then the electropositive atom loses electron & becomes positively charged, while the electronegative atom gains the electron to become negatively charged. Electrostatic force of attractions works between the positively and negatively charged ions due to which both ions are bonded with each other. As a result, a chemical bond is produced between the ions, which is known as Ionic or Electrovalent compound.

Number of electrons donated or accepted by any element is called Electrovalence.

In an ionic compound every cation is surrounded by a fixed number of anions and every anion is surrounded by a fixed number of cations and they are bonded in a fixed geometry in a three dimensional structure.

Example : Sodium chloride compound.

Sodium atom (Electropositive element) by losing an electron from its outermost orbit, gets converted into a cation and attains noble gas like stable configuration. Energy required for this process is called ionization potential. Na + IE Na + + e (2, 8, 1) (2, 8)
X

Chlorine atom (Electronegative element) accepts the electron donated by sodium atom in its outermost orbit and forms chloride anion. In this process energy is released which is known as electron affinity.

(2, 8, 7) (2, 8, 8) Due to the opposite charges on the Na+ and CI- ions, they are bonded by electrostatic force of attraction to from NaCI compound.
Na+ + CI- [Na]+ [CI] or NaCI

Here electrovalent of sodium and chlorine atom is one.

For the formation of ionic bond, it is necessary that the ionization potential of electropositive element should be less and the electron affinity of electronegative element should be high. 8.3 (a) Properties of Ionic Compounds:
(i) Ionic compounds consist of ions: All ionic compounds consist of positively and negatively charged ions and not molecules. For example, sodium chloride consists of Na+ and CI- ions, magnesium 2+ fluoride consists of Mg and F- ions and so on.

(ii) Physical nature : Ionic compounds are solid and relatively hard due to strong electrostatic force of
attraction between the ions of ionic compound.

(iii) Crystal structure : X-ray studies have shown that ionic compounds do not exist as simple single
molecules as Na+CI-, This is due to the fact that the forces of attraction are not restricted to single unit such as Na+ and CI- but due to uniform electric field around and ion, each ion is attracted to a large number of other ions. For example, one Na+ ion will not attract only one CI- ion but it can attract as many negative charges as it an. Similarly, the CI- ion will attract several Na- ions. As a result, there is a regular arrangement of these ions in three dimensions as shown in diagram. Such a regular arrangements is called crystal lattice.

Lattice structure of Sodium chloride

www.tekoclasses.com Director : SUHAG R. KARIYA (SRK Sir), Bhopal Ph.:(0755) 32 00 000 Page 55

(iv) Melting point and boiling point : Strong electrostatic force of attraction if present between ions of opposite charges. To break the crystal lattice more energy is required so their melting points and boiling points are high. (v) Solubility : Ionic compounds are generally soluble in polar solvents like water and insoluble in no polar solvents like carbon tetrachloride, benzene, ether alcohol etc.

(vi) Brittle nature: Ionic compounds on applying external force or pressure are broken into small pieces,
such substances are known as brittle and this property is known as brittleness. When external force is applied on the ionic compound, layers of ions slide over one another and particles of the same charge come near to each other as a result due to the strong repulsion force, crystals of compounds are broken.

BRITTLE NATURE OF IONIC COMPOUNDS

(vii) Electrical conductivity : Electrical conductivity in any substance is due to the movement of free
electrons of ions. In metals electrical conductivity is due to the free movement of valency electrons. As ionic compound exhibits electrical conductivity due to the movement of ions either in the fused state or in the soluble state in the polar solvent. But in the solid state due to strong electrostatic force of attraction free ions are absent so they are insulator in the solid state.

METALS AND NON-METALS

9.1

OCCURRENCE OF METALS :
All metals are present in the earths crust either in the free state or in the form of their compounds. Aluminum is the most abundant metal in the earths crust. The second most abundant metal is iron and thier one is calcium.

9.1 (a) Native and Combined State of Metals :

Metals occur in the crust of earth in the following two states -

(i) Native state of free state: A metal is said to occur in a free or a native state when it is found in the
crust of the earth in the elementary or uncombined form. The metals which are very uncreative (lying at the bottom of activity series) are found in the free stae. These have no tendency to react with oxygen and are not attacked by moisture, carbon dioxide of air or other no-metals. Silver, copper, gold and platinum are some examples of such metals.

(ii) Combines state : A metal is said to occur in a combined state if it is found in nature in the form of its
compounds. e.g. Sodium, magnesium etc. Copper and silver are metals which occur in the free state as well as in the combined state.

9.2

MINERALS AND ORES :

The natural substances in which metals or their compounds occur either in native state or combined state are called minerals. The minerals are not pure and contain different types of other impurities. The impurities associated with minerals are collectively known as gangue or matrix. The mineral from which the metal can be conveniently and profitably extracted, is called an ore. For example, aluminum occurs in the earths crust in the form of two minerals, bauxite (AI2,O3. 2H2O) and caly (AI2O3. 2SiO2. 2H2O). Out of these two, aluminum can be conveniently and profitably extracted from bauxite. So, bauxite is an are of aluminum.

Oxygen is the most abundant element on earths crust.

9.2 (a) Types of Ores :

The most common ores of metals are oxides, sulphides, carbonates, sulphates, halides, etc. In general, very uncreative metals (such as gold, silver, platinum etc.) occur in elemental form or Free State.

(i) Metals which are only slightly reactive occur as sulphides (e.g., CuS, Pbs etc.).

(ii) Reactive metals occur as oxides (e.g., MnO2, AO2O3 etc.) (iii) Most reactive metals occur as salts as carbonates, subparts, halides etc. SOME COMMON ORES ARE LISTED IN THE TABLE

METALLURGY:
The process of extracting pure metals from their ores and then refining them for use is called metallurgy. In other words, the process of metallurgy involves extraction of metals from their ores and then refining them from use. The ores generally contain unwanted impurities such as sand, stone, earthy particles, limestone, mica, etc., these are called gangue or matrix. The process of metallurgy depends upon the nature of the ore, nature of the metals and they types of impurities present. Therefore, there is not a single method for the extraction of all metals. However, most of the metals can e extracted by a general procedure which involves the following steps.

Various steps involved in metallurgical processes are (a) Crushing and grinding of the ore. (b) Concentration of the ore or enrichment of the ore. (c) Extraction of metal from the concentrated ore. (d) Refining or purification of the impure metal.

These steps are briefly discussed below -

9.3 (a) Crushing and Grinding of Ore :

Most of the ores occur as big rocks in nature. They are broken into small pieces with the help of crusher. These pieces are then reduced to fine powder with the help of a ball mill or a stamp mill.

9.3 (b) Concentration of Ore or Enrichment of Ore :

The process of removal of unwanted impurities (gangue) from the ore is called ore concentration or ore enrichment.

(i) Hydraulic washing (washing with water) :

Principle: This method is based upon the difference in the densities of the ore particles and the impurities (gangue). Ores of iron, tin and lead are very heady and, therefore, they are concentrated by this method.

(ii) Front floatation process:

Principle: this method is based on the principle of difference in the wetting properties of the ore and gangue particles with water and oil. This method is commonly used for sulphide ores.

(iii) Magnetic separation :

Principle: This method depends upon the difference in the magnetic properties of the ores and gangue. This method is used for the concentration of heamatite, an ore of iron.

The froth floatation process if commonly used for the sulphide ores copper, zinc, lead etc.

METALS AND NON-METALS

10.1

EXTRACTION OF THE METAL FROM THE CONCENTRATED ORE :

The metal is extracted from the concentrated ore by the following steps : (a) Conversion of the concentrated ore into its oxide : The production of metal from the concentrated ore mainly involves reduction process. This can be usually done by two processes known as calcination and roasting process. The method depends upon the nature of the ore.

(b) Conversion of oxide to metal y reduction process

10.1 (a) Conversion of Ore into Metal Oxide :

These are briefly discussed below :

(i) Calcination : It is the process of heating the concentrated ore in the absence of air.
The calcination process is used for the following changes : to convert carbonate ores into metal oxide. to remove water from the hydrated ores. to remove volatile impurities from the ore.

For example
Calcination ZnCO3(s) ZnO(s) +

CO2(g) carbon dioxide CO2(g) Carbon dioxide

Zinc carbonate

Zinc oxide

Calcination FeCO3(s) FeO(s) +

Siderite

Iron (I) oxide

(ii) Roasting : It is the process of heating the concentrated ore strongly in the presence of excess air.
This process is used for converting sulphide ores to metal oxide. In this process, the following changes take place : the sulphide ores undergo oxidation to their oxides. moisture is removed volatile impurities are removed.

For example :
2ZnS + 3O2
Roasting

2ZnO(s) Zinc oxide

2SO2(g) Sulphur

Calcination is used for hydrated and carbonate ores and roasting is used for sulphide ores. 10.1 (b) Conversion of Metal Oxide to Metal:
The metal oxide formed after calcination or roasting is converted into metal by reduction. The method used for reduction of metal oxide depends upon the nature and chemical reactivity of metal. The metals can be grouped into the following three categories on the basis for their reactivity: Metals of low reactivity. Metals of medium reactivity. Metals of high reactivity. These different categories of metals are extracted by different technique. the different steps involved in separation are as follows :

(i) Reduction by heating : Metals placed low in the reactivity series are very less reactive. They can be
obtained from their oxides by simple heating in air. 2HgS(s) Mercuric sulphide 2HgO(s) Mercuric oxide +
Roasting 3O2(g)

2HgO(s) Mercuric oxide

2SO2(g) Sulphur dioxide

Oxygen

Roasting

2Hg ( ) + Mercury metal

O2(g) Oxygen

(ii) Chemical Reduction (For metals in the middle of the reactivity series):
The metals n the middle of the reactivity series, such as iron, zinc, lead, copper etc. are moderately reactive. These are usually present as sulphides or carbonates. Therefore, before reduction the metal sulphides and carbonates must be converted to oxides. This is done by roasting and calcination. The oxides of these metals cannot be reduced by heating alone. Therefore, these metal oxides are reduced to free metal by using chemical agents like carbon, aluminum, sodium or calcium.

(A) Reduction with carbon : The oxides of moderately reactive metals (occurring in the meddle of reactivity series) like zinc, copper, nickel, tin, lead etc. can be reduced by using carbon as reducing agent.
AnO(s) Zinc oxide +
Heat C(s) Carbon (Reducing agent)

One disadvantage of using carbon as reducing agent is that small traces of carbon are added to metal as impurity. Therefore, it contaminates the metals.

Coke is very commonly used as a reducing agent because it is cheap.

(B) Reduction with carbon monoxide: Metals can be obtained from oxides by reduction with carbon monoxide in the furnace. Heat Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g)
Ferric oxide Carbon monoxide Iron dioxide Carbon

(C) Reduction with aluminum : Certain metal oxides are reduced by aluminum to metals.

Reduction of metals oxides with aluminum is known as aluminothermy or thermite process.

(iii) Reduction of electrolysis or electrolytic reduction : The oxide of active metals (which are high up in the activity series) are very stable and cannot be reduced by carbon or aluminum. These metals are commonly extracted by the electrolysis of their fused salts using suitable electrodes. This is also called electrolytic reduction i.e. reduction by electrolysis. For example, aluminum oxide is very stable and aluminum cannot be prepared by reduction with carbon. It is prepared by the electrolysis of molten alumina (AI2O3).
AI3+ + Aluminum ion (From molten alumina)
Heat 3e Electron (From cathode)

AI Aluminum (At cathode)

It may be noted that during electrolytic reduction of molten salts, the metals are always obtained at the cathode (negative electrode).

The process of extraction of metals by electrolysis process is called electrometallurgy.

10.2

PURIFICATION OR REFINING OF METALS :

The metal obtained any of the above methods is usually impure and is known as crude metal. The process of purifying the crude metal is called refining.

10.2 (a) Liquation :

This method is use for refining the metals having low melting points, such as tin, lead, bismuth etc. This is based on the principle that the metal to be refined is easily fusible (melt easily (but the impurities do not fuse easily.

10.2 (b) Distillation:

This method is used for the purification of volatile metals (which form vapours readily) such as mercury and zinc.

10.2 (c) Electrolytic Refining :

This is most general and widely used method for the refining of impure metals. Many metals such as copper, zinc, tin, nickel, silver, gold etc. are refined electrolytically. It is based upon the phenomenon of electrolysis. In this method, the crude metal is cast into thick rods and are made as anodes, while the thin sheets of pure metal are made as cathodes, An aqueous solution of some salt of the metal is used as an electrolyte. On passing current through the electrolyte, the pure metal from the anode dissolves into the electrolyte. An equivalent amount of pure metal from the electrolyte is deposited on the cathode. The soluble impurities go in the solution whereas the insoluble impurities settle down at the bottom of the node and are known as anode mud. In this way, the pure metal from anode goes into electrolyte and from electrolyte it goes to the cathode.

At anode :

+2 Oxidation Cu Cu + 2eCopper ( from impure anode)

At cathode :

Cu + 2eCopper ion

2+

Re duction CU Copper ( deposited at cathode)

In electrolytic refining impure metal is made anode and pure metal is made cathode.

Zone refining and Van Arkel method are used for obtaining metals (Si, Ge etc.) of very high purity for certain specific applications.

METALS AND NON-METALS

11.1 CORROSION OF METALS :

Surface of many metals is easily attacked when exposed to atmosphere. The react with air or water present in the environment and form undesirable compounds on their surface. These undesirable compounds are generally oxides. Thus, corrosion is a process of deterioration of metal as a result of its reaction with air or water (present in environment) surrounding it.

11.1 (a) Corrosion of Iron:

iron corrodes readily when exposed to moisture and gets covered with a brown flaky substance called rust. This is also called Rusting of Iron. Chemically, the rust if hydrated iron (III) oxide, Fe2O3.XH2O. Rusting is an oxidation process in which iron metal is slowly oxidized by the action of air (in presence of water). Therefore, rusting of iron takes place under the following conditions : Presence of air (or oxygen) Presence of water (moisture)

More the reactivity of the metal, the more will be the possibility of the metal getting corroded.
(i) Experiment to show that rusting of iron requires both air and water We take three test tubes and put one clean iron nail in each of the three test tubes : (A) In the first test tube containing iron nail, we put some anhydrous calcium chloride to absorb water (or moisture) from the damp air present in the test tube and make it dry. (B) In the second test tube containing iron nail, we put boiled water because boiled water does not contain any dissolved air or oxygen in it. A layer of oil is put over boiled water in the test tube to prevent the outside air from mixing with boiled water. (C) In the third test tube containing an iron nail, we put unboiled water so that about two-third of the nail is immersed in water and the rest is above water exposed to damp air. After one week, we observe the iron nails kept in all the three test tubes.

Rusting of iron (ii) We will obtain the following observations from the experiment :
(A) No rust in seen on the surface of iron nail kept in dry air in the first test tube. This tells us that rusting of iron does not takes place in air alone. (B) No rust is seen on the surface of iron nail kept in air free boiled water in the second test tube, This tells us that rusting of iron does not take place in water alone. (C) Red brown rust is seen on the surface of iron nail kept in the presence of the air and water in the third test tube. This tells us that rusting of iron takes place in the presence of both air and water together. (iii) Prevention of rusting (A) Corrosion of metals can be prevented by coating the metal surface with a thin layer of pant, varnish or grease. (B) Iron is protected from rusting by coating it with a thin layer of another metal which is more reactive that iron. This prevents the loss of electrons from iron because the active metal loses electrons in process of covering iron with zinc is called galvanization. Iron is also coated with other metals such as tin known as tin coating. (C) By alloying: Some metals when alloyed with other metals become more resistant to corrosion. For example, when iron is alloyed with chromium and nickel, it form stainless steel. This is resistant to corrosion and does not rust at all. (D) To decrease rusting of iron, certain antirust solutions are used. For example, solutions of alkaline phosphates are used as antirust solutions.

11.1 (b) Corrosion of Aluminum :

Due to the formation of a dull layer of aluminum oxide when exposed to moist air, the aluminum metal loses its shine very soon after use. This aluminum oxide layer is very tough and prevents the metal underneath from further corrosion (because moist air is not able to pass through this aluminum oxide layer). This means sometimes corrosion is useful.

11.1 (c) Corrosion of Copper

When a copper object remains in damp air for a considerable time, then copper reacts slowly with carbon dioxide and water of air to form a green coating of basic copper carbonate [CuCO3, Cu(OH(2] on the surface of the object. Since copper metal is low in the reactivity series, the corrosion of copper metal is very, very slow.

11.1 (d) Corrosion of Silver :

Silver is a highly uncreative metal, so it does not reacts with oxygen of air easily. But, air usually contains a little of sulphur compounds such as hydrogen sulphide gas (H2S), which react slowly with silver to form a

black coating of silver sulphide (Ag2S). Silver ornaments gradually turn black due to the formation of a
thin silver sulphide layer on their surface and silver is said to be tarnished.

11.2 ALLOYS :
An alloy is a homogenous mixture of two or more metals or a metal and a non-metal. For example, iron is the most widely used metal. But it is never used in the pure form. this is because iron is very soft and stretches easily when not. But when it is mixed with a small amount of carbon (about 0.05%), it becomes

hard and strong. The new form of iron is called steel.

11.2 (a) Objective of Ally Making :

Alloys are generally prepared to have certain specified properties which are not possessed by the contituent metals. The main objects of ally-making are :

(i) To increase resistance to corrosion : For example, stainless steel is prepared which has more
resistant to corrosion than iron.

(ii) To modify chemical reactivity : The chemical reactivity of sodium is decreased by making an alloy
with mercury which is known as sodium amalgam.

(iii) To increase the hardness: Steel, an alloy of iron and carbon is harder than iron. (iv) To increase tensile strength: Magnesium is an alloy or magnesium and aluminum.
It has greater tensile strength as compared to magnesium and aluminum.

(v) To produce good casting: Type metal is an alloy of lead, tin and mercury. (vi) To lower the melting point: For example, solder is an alloy of lead and tin (50) Pb and 50% Sn). It has
a low melting point and is used for welding electrical wires together.

11.2 (b) Some Important Alloys :

The approximate composition and used of some important alloys are given below :

(i) Steel : Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon containing 0.1 to 1.5% carbon. Steel is very hard, tough and strong. It is used for making rails, screws, girders, bridges, railway lines etc. Steel can also be used for
the contraction for building, vehicles, ships etc.

(ii) Allow Steels : Steel obtained by the addition of some other elements such as chromium, vanadium,
titanium, molybdenum, manganese, cobalt or nickel to carbon steel are called Ally Steel.

(iii) Alloys of Aluminum : This common alleys of aluminum are : (A) Duralumin. It is an alloy containing aluminum, copper and traces of magnesium and
manganese. Its

percentage composition is - AO\I 95%, Cu = 4%, Mg = 0.5 % Mn = 0.5 % It is stronger than pure aluminum, Since duralumin is light and yet strong, it is used for making bodies of aircrafts, helicopter, jets and kitchenwares like pressure cookers etc.

(B) Magnesium. It is an alloy of aluminum and magnesium having the composition: Al - 95%, Mg
= 5% It is very light and hard. It is more hard than pure aluminum. It is used for making light instruments, balance beams, pressure cookers etc.

(C) Alnico . It is an alloy containing aluminum, iron nickel, and cobalt. It is highly magnetic in nature
and can be used for making powerful magnets.

(iv) Alloys of Copper: The important alloys of copper are Brass and Bronze. (A) Brass - It is an alloy of copper and zinc having the composition = Cu = 80% Zn = 20% Brass is
more malleable and more strong than pure copper. It is used for making cooking utensils, condenser sheets, pipes, hardware, nuts, bolts, screws, springs etc.

(B) Bronze - It is an alloy of copper and tin having the composition : Cu = 90% Sn = 10% Bronze is
very though and highly resistant to corrosion. It is used for making utensils, statues, cooling pipes, coins, hardware etc.

(C) German Silver - It is an alloy of copper, zinc and nickel having the composition: Cu = 60%, Zn
= 20%, Ni = 20%. It is used for making silverware, utensils and for electroplating.

(v) Alloying of Gold : Pure gold is very soft and cannot be used as such for jewellery. Therefore, it
is generally alloyed with other metals commonly copper or silver to make it harder and modify its colour. The purity of gold is expressed as carats. Pure gold is of 24 carat. A 18 carat gold means that is contains 18 parts of gold is 24 parts by weight of alloy. Most of the jewellery is made of 22 carat gold. Amalgams are homogenous mixtures of a metal and mercury. For example, sodium amalgam contains sodium and mercury. Different amalgams are prepared according to their used. For example,

(i) Sodium amalgam is produced to decrease the chemical reactivity of sodium metal. It is also used as a good reducing agent. (ii) Tin amalgam is used for silvering cheap mirrors. (iii) The process of amalgamation is used for the extraction of metals like godl or silver from their native ores.
