Question

A metal ‘M’ is added to the sulphate of metal ‘X’, it gives sulphate of ‘M’ and metal ‘X’ as the products. Another metal ‘Y’ when added to the chloride of metal ‘X’ gives no reaction. i) Give the word equations for both the chemical reactions. ii) What is the order of reactivity for the three metals? iii) Predict what will happen when the metal ‘Y’ is added to the sulphate of metal ‘M’.

Answer 1

Explanation:

(i) Which is the most reactive metal? Why?

(ii) What would be observed, if 'B' is added to a solution of Copper (II) sulphate and why?

(iii) Arrange the metals A, B, C and D in order of increasing reactivity.

(iv) Which one among A, B, C and D metals can be used to make containers that can be used to store any of the above solutions safely

Answer 2

Explanation:

A metal ‘M’ is added to the sulphate of metal ‘X’, it gives sulphate of ‘M’ and metal ‘X’ as the products.

Another metal ‘Y’ when added to the chloride of metal ‘X’ gives no reaction.
