an intro that just known to us (recall):

  • Metals are described as chemical elements that readily lose valence electrons to form positive ions (cations).
    Examples: Aluminium, copper, iron, tin, gold.
  • Around 90 of the total 118 elements are metals.

Physical Properties

Physical Properties of Nonmetals

  • Occur as solids, liquids, and gases at room temperature
  • Brittle
  • Non-malleable
  • Non-ductile
  • Non-sonorous
  • Bad conductors of heat and electricity

Exceptions in Physical Properties

  •  Alkali metals (Na, K, Li) can be cut using a knife.
  • Mercury is a liquid metal.
  • Lead and mercury are poor conductors of heat.
  • Mercury expands significantly for the slightest change in temperature.
  • Gallium and cesium have a very low melting point
  • Iodine is non-metal but it has luster.
  • Graphite conducts electricity.
  • Diamond conducts heat and has a very high melting point.

Physical Properties of Metals

● Hard and have a high tensile strength
● Solids at room temperature, except mercury, which is liquid at room temperature.
● Sonorous
● Good conductors of heat and electricity
● Malleable, i.e., can be beaten into thin sheets
● Ductile, i.e., can be drawn into thin wires
● High melting and boiling points (except Cesium (Cs) and Gallium (Ga))
● Dense, (except alkali metals). Osmium – highest density and lithium – least density
● Lustrous
● Silver-grey in color, (except gold and copper)

Ø  Metals ( eg: gold,silver,copper,potassium,sodium,aluminium      etc.,)

Ø  Non metals (eg:carbon,chlorine,phosphorus,oxygen,bromine,etc..,)

Ø  Metalloids - Exhibit properties   of both metals and non metals  (eg: silicon, germanium,boron,arsenic,antimony etc.,)

Total number of elements = 118  Naturally occuring          =             92

AMPHOTERIC OXIDES

                       Such metal oxides which react with both acids as well as bases to  produce salts and water are known as amphoteric oxides.

       Aluminum oxide reacts in the following manner with acids and bases –

(BASE) Al2O3 + 6HCl → 2AlCl3 + 3H2O

(ACID)Al2O3            + 2NaOH → 2NaAlO2 (Sodium aluminate)+ H2O

Zinc and aluminum oxides are examples of amphoteric oxides

 

REACTION WITH OXYGEN ( NON-METALS)

       When non-metals react with the oxygen they form their respective  oxides and by adding a small amount of water, the solution becomes acidic.

       Eg: S +O2 → SO2 ;             SO2 + H2O → H2SO3

 

 

 

REACTION WITH WATER (METALS)

 

       Metal + Water → Metal oxide + Hydrogen

       Metal oxide + Water → Metal hydroxide

       Metals like potassium and sodium react violently with cold water. In the case of sodium and potassium, the reaction is so violent and exothermic that the evolved hydrogen immediately catches fire.

       2K(s)      + 2H2O(l) → 2KOH(aq)   +             H2(g) + heat energy

       2Na(s) + 2H 2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g) + heat energy

 

       The reaction of calcium with water is less violent. The heat evolved is not sufficient for the hydrogen to catch fire.

Ca(s) + 2H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(aq) + H2(g)

       Magnesium does not react with cold water.

It reacts vigorously with hot water to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen.

       Metals like aluminum, iron, and zinc do not react either with cold or hot water. But they react with steam to form metal oxide and hydrogen. 2Al(s) + 3H2O(g) → Al2O3(s) + 3H2(g)

       3Fe(s) + 4H2O(g) → Fe3O4(s) + 4H2(g)

       Metals such as lead, copper, silver, and gold do not react with water at all.

 

REACTION WITH WATER (NON-METALS)

       Nonmetals do not react with water.

       Some non-metals like phosphorus is kept in water, so that its contact from the air can be avoided.

 

 

REACTION WITH ACIDS (METALS)

Metal + Dilute acid → Salt + Hydrogen

Eg: 2Al  +             6HCL→2AlCl3 +3H2

Fe           +             HCl → FeCl2  +    H2

       Copper does not react with dil.HCl but reacts with conc. sulphuric and nitric acid.

       Hydrogen gas is not evolved when a metal reacts with nitric acid  because HNO3 is a strong oxidizing agent.

       It oxidizes the H2 produced to water and itself gets reduced to any of  the nitrogen oxides (N2O, NO, NO2).

                       But magnesium (Mg) and manganese (Mn) react with very dilute  HNO3 to evolve Hydrogen gas.

REACTION WITH ACIDS (NON-METALS)

 

       Nonmetals do not react with acids, although sulfur reacts with hot concentrated nitric acid.

S+ 4HNO3→SO2 + 4NO2 +2H2O

       METAL REPLACES METAL: Reactive metals can displace less reactive  metals from their compounds in solution or molten form.

Metal A + Salt solution of B → Salt solution of A + Metal B

Fe+CuSO4→ FeSO4+ Cu  Mg+CuSO4 →MgSO4+Cu

 

Nobel Metals

Metals that have very less tendency to react, that resisted chemical action, do not corrode, and can be found in a free state in nature are known as noble metals. eg: gold,silver,platinum          etc.,

Gold dissolves  in aqua Regia        (A mixture of conc.HNO3 and conc HCL in  the ratio 1:3 by volume)

 

USES OF METALS

       Iron is the most commonly used metal, for the construction of

ships,buildings, automobiles and railway bridges, etc

is used for making jewelry, wires, and coins and in dentistry

       Silver is used for making wires, utensils, statues, alloys, good reflecting

property of silver is also used in making mirrors

       Tin is used for tinning food cans and alloys

       Lead is used for making batteries and alloys

       Zinc is used in the prevention of rusting, making alloys, and in dry cells

       Mercury is used in making amalgams (an alloy of mercury with another metal,

especially one used for dental fillings) and in thermometers

       Cu and Al is used in making wires, Al in food packing and in airplane parts

is used as the filament in incandescent light bulbs because it has the

highest melting point

Corrosion

       Corrosion is an oxidation reaction with atmospheric oxygen in the presence of water on the surface of a metal.

                       During corrosion, metals get converted to oxides, hydroxides, sulfides,  etc.

       The corrosion of iron is called rusting

Fe           + O2           → Fe2O(Rust which is brown in color)   + H2O

       Corrosion of copper: Copper reacts with moisture, carbon dioxide and  oxygen in the air and slowly loses its shiny brown surface and gains a  green coat. This green substance is copper carbonate.

Cu+ CO2+ H2O+ O2 → CuCO3.Cu(OH)2

       Tarnishing of silver: Silver reacts with sulfur (generally H2S) in the atmosphere and the information of silver sulfide which is black in color.

Ag+H2S→ Ag2S

Periodic Table Shortcut

 Periodic table shortcut  Name of the page:   shortcut for periodic table  Done by:                       FIITJEE Student Applicable for all the classes  What is a Periodic Table? a table of the chemical elements arranged in order of atomic number, usually in rows, so that elements with similar atomic structure (and hence similar chemical properties) appear in vertical columns. The periodic table, also known as the periodic table of elements, is a tabular display of the chemical elements, which are arranged by atomic number, electron configuration, and recurring chemical properties. The structure of the table shows periodic trends. who invented the periodic table? many collections of scientists invented it. Embedded PDF:

Dark Matter And Dark Energy

  Dark matter and dark energy Formation of dark energy –          When the universe formed after the big bang theory. It started as a small ball of energy, began expanding, and still continues. –          However, the thing that puzzles scientists are that instead of the expansion slowing down its rate is increasing, going against normal physics.   Formation of dark energy –          This explains the occurrence of energy causing the expansion which scientists term as dark energy. –          According to scientists 68% of the universe is dark energy, 27% is dark matter and only 5% is what we currently can observe. –          The theory to this was first given by Einstein’s long-forgotten gravity theory which consisted of a cosmological constant.   Why is there dark energy? –          Scientists have now given 3 explanations for dark energy: –          The first is of course Einstein's theory of gravity. –          a new theory could include some kind of fi
