Q17. A shiny brown coloured element x on heating in air becomes black in colour name the element X and the black coloured compound formed? 

Ans - Element X is a copper and the black coloured compound is copper oxide 

2Cu + O2 ____ 2CuO     copper oxide

Q18. Why do we apply paint on iron articles? 

Ans- We apply paint on iron articles because it can be prevented from corrosion pen does not allow the atmospheric Oxygen and water to come in contact with the surface of iron 


Q19. Oil and fat containing food items are flushed with nitrogen why? 

Ans- Oil and fat present in the food atoms get oxidized and become rancid in presence of the atmospheric oxygen but such reaction is prevented in presence of nitrogen because nitrogen is unreactive gas as compared to the oxygen therefore packed food atom like potato chips are packed with nitrogen gas to prevent them from rancidity

Q20. Explain the following terms with one example each 

a) corrosion  

b) rancidity 

Ans- a) corrosion 

Corrosion is the phenomenon due to which the metals are slowly  eaten away by the reaction of air ,water and chemicals present in the atmosphere is called corrosion .The corrosion of iron is called rusting

b) Rancidity 

It is a process of slow  oxidation of oils and fats present in the food materials resulting in the change of smell and taste in them
