2. What are amphoteric oxides? Give examples two amphoteric oxides. (2 marks)
3. State two ways to prevent the rusting of iron. (2 marks)
4. Why is aluminum extracted from alumina by electrolytic reduction and not by reducing with carbon? (2 marks)

(ii) Metal ‘Y’, which is middle in reactivity series.
(iii) Metal ‘Z’ which is high up in the reactivity series. (3 marks)
12. Give reasons: (3 marks)
(i) Platinum, gold and silver are used to make jewellery.
(ii) Sodium, potassium and lithium are stored under oil.
(iii) Aluminium is a highly reactive metal, still it is used to make utensil for cooking.
13. (i) What is corrosion of metals? Name one metal which does not corrode and one whichcorrodes on being kept in atmosphere.(ii) How will you show that the rusting of iron needs oxygen and moisture at the same time?
