Book Back Questions with Answer and Do You Know Box Content

Do You Know?

Noble gases show no tendency to accept electrons because the outer s and p orbitals of noble gases are completely filled. No more electrons can be added to them and hence their electron affinities are zero.

Extraction of metal from metal oxide can be categorized into three types:

More reactive metals Medium reactive metals Less reactive metals
Na, K, Ca, Mg, Al Zn, Fe, Pb, Cu Ag, Hg
Electrolytic reduction of metal oxide into metal Chemical reduction of metal oxide into metal using coke Thermal decomposition of metal oxide into metal

Dilute or concentrated nitric acid does not attack aluminium, but it renders aluminium passive due to the formation of an oxide film on its surface.
