An experiment was done in a lab to investigate factors that affect rust. All the
boiling tubes were left for 3 days
a) After 3 days, it was noticed that in boiling tubes C and D, the potassium
hexacyanoferrate(III) solution changed colour to dark blue. What is the
inference?
……………………………………………………………….
b) In which boiling tubes did iron nails show rusting?
…………………………………………………………..
c) The nails in boiling tubes A and B did not rust. Explain
…………………………………………………………………
d) Explain the function of experiment in E
……………………………………………………………………..

f) What type of metals prevent rusting of iron? …………………………..
g) What type of metals encourage rusting of iron?..............................
h) If iron nails are immersed in alkaline solution, the nails do not rust.
Explain
……………………………………………………………………….
i) Calcium is more effective than zinc to prevent rusting
Why do you think steel objects are coated with zinc instead of calcium?
………………………………………………………………………….
j) Explain the followings
i) When a metal corrodes, it undergoes oxidation
…………………………………………………………………
ii) In tin plating, iron can is coated with tin. However as soon as
the can is scratched, rusting will occur quickly
……………………………………………………………………….
iii) In galvanizing, iron is coated with a layer of zinc. When the
galvanized iron is scratched, rusting does not occur.

Question 4
Table of extraction of metals
K These metals have very strong attraction towards oxygen, therefore the
Na oxides cannot be reduced by Carbon
Ca
Mg Extraction of metals must be done by electrolysis of molten compounds
Al
C
Zn These metals have weak attraction towards oxygen compared to
carbon, so the ores can be extracted easily by carbon
H
Fe
Reactivity Sn
increases Pb
Cu Weak attraction towards oxygen, therefore heating the oxides in air
Hg can reduce the metals easily
Ag Very weak attraction towards oxygen. Exist as free metals
Au
