Answers
1.
chalcopyrite CuFeS2
chalcocite Cu2S
2.
CuO+NH3--->Cu+H2O+N2
3.
The mixture of Cuprous oxide and ferrous (Cu2O +FeO) oxide is called copper matte. It contains 50% copper.
4.
Zinc white : Used to prepare Rinmann's green.
Calomel : To make reference electrode.
white vitriol :To make lithopone.
Silver nitrate : used in election.
Red oxide : To make black oxide.
blue vitriol : As laboratory reagent.
5.
CuFeS2,Hg2Cl2,HgS,Fe3O4, ZnCO3,ZnO, ZnO.CoO(CoZnO2), (NH4)2SO4.FeSO4.6H2O,
FeSO4.7H2O
6.
Refer to q.n. 1
Zinc: ZnCo3,ZnS
Silver: Ag2S,AgCl
Mercury: HgS ,
Iron :Fe2O3,Fe3O4
7.
Co(NO)3---heat-->CoO+NO2+O2
CoO +ZnO---heat--> CoZnO2
8.
ZnCO3---->ZnO +CO2
9.
10.
HgCl2 +KI --->HgI2 +Kcl HgI2 +KI(excess)--> K2[HgI4] (Nessler's reagent)
11.
Refer to q.n. 10
12.
The element whose atom or ion has partially filled d-orbital is called transition elenent.
--> It's two properties are:
i) Have high melting and boiling points
ii)Show variable oxidation states.
13.
Formation of brownish layer on the surface of iron due to atmospheric agents like air , water,CO2 etc is called rusting of iron.
i) Using solutions like AgNO3
ii) Galvanization.
14.
*Tempering-heating steel and cooling slowly.
*Queencing- heating steel and cooling suddenly
*Thomas slag is a slag having molecular formula: Ca3(PO4)2
*Stainless steel is a type of steel having low percentage of carbon content which is strong and almost stain free.
15.
Steel(Fe-98 to 99.8,C-0.2 to2)
16.
Make table and write yourself.
17.
Action of heat on silver nitrate:
i)AgNO3-212 degree-->AgNO2+O2
ii)AgNO3--450degree-->Ag+NO2+O2
