Answer:

A. oxygen

B. chlorine

2. iodine

(a) because aluminium is a soft malleable metal. it can be made to in sheets to form thin wrapping sheets. also, it does not react with food items.

(b) because metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. the immersion rod needs electric supply to get heated and to heat liquids.

(c) they're kept in kerosene to keep them from coming in contact with oxygen and moisture as they react to form their hydroxides.

4. Magnesium is a metal. Metals react with oxygen to form metallic oxides. So Magnesium oxides are basic in nature. But nonmetals react with oxygen to form nonmetallic oxides. These oxides differ from metallic oxides because they are acidic in nature. Nonmetallic oxides react with water to form acids. Therefore, Sulphur dioxide is acidic in nature. Magnesium oxide is basic in nature.

5. Copper forms a green deposit on its surface when exposed to air which is usually a mixture of copper carbonate and copper hydroxide. It's acidic in nature.

Below are shown, for five metals, reduction reactions and standard electrode potential values. which of these metals is the leas

just olya [345]

Above question is incomplete. Complete question is attached below
........................................................................................................................
Solution:
Reduction potential of metal ions are provided below. Higher the value to reduction potential, greater is the tendency of metal to remain in reduced state.

In present case, reduction potential of Au is maximum, hence it is least prone to undergo oxidation. Hence, it is least reactive.

On other hand, reduction potential of Na is minimum, hence it is most prone to undergo oxidation. Hence, it is most reactive.
