Why do metals react with oxygen?
When metals react with oxygen they produce metal oxides. A common example would be that of Iron which in the presence of oxygen and water form rust (a mixture of metal oxides and metal hydroxides)
Do the alkali metals have the ability to tarnish?
By forming their oxides, the alkali metals tarnish very quickly with respect to many other metals.
How are metal and non metal oxides formed?
Yes, some metals burn to produce oxides, particularly aluminum, magnesium, and titanium. Some of these metals are use in fireworks and even solid rocket fuels. The most stunning is magnesium, which produces an intense white flame that is almost too bright to look at.
What are the examples of metal catalysts?
most of the metals (either in the form of native metals or as their compounds) are known to act as catalysts for one reaction or the other.
Which metal forms an amalgam which other metals?
Mercury forms amalgams with other metals.
What type of chemical reaction is used to extract metals from their naturallly occurring compounds like oxides or chlorides?
For example reduction with hydrogen and carbon from oxides, reduction with other metals from chlorides, etc.
Is the process in which oxides and other impurities are removed from metal surface by dipping the metals in hydrochloric acid?
pickling

Heat nitrates what happen?
If the nitrates are of alkali metals, they decompose into Nitrites and Oxygen:NO3- --Δ--> NO2-+ O2If the nitrates are of other metals, they decompose into Metal oxides, Nitrogen dioxide and Oxygen:NO3- --Δ--> O2- + NO2 + O2

By forming their oxides, the alkali metals tarnish very quickly with respect to many other metals.
What is it true or false. Corrosion is a physical property of metals.?
False. Corrosion is a chemical property. When a metal corrodes, it reacts with its environment to produce oxides, hydroxides, and other types of corrosion.
Metal oxides can also be called basic oxides Why is that?
The oxide ion tends to react with water to form hydroxide ions. generically O2- + H2O --> 2OH- as an example CaO + H2O ---> Ca(OH)2 Some other metal oxides (like ZnO and Al2O3) are basic BUT also acidic oxides: ZnO + H2O + 2 OH- --> Zn(OH)42- in which reaction hydroxide is needed and NOT formed! This behaviour is usually termed amphoteric.
What metals reacts to magnets?
Magnets attract ferromagnetic metals, alloys, oxides or other compounds; examples are: iron, cobalt, nickel, dysprosium, iron oxides, some compounds of lanthanides etc.
What type of liquid does metal rust the fastest in?
Water with oxygen (air). However, only one metal 'rusts' . It is IRON and forms iron oxide (rust). Other metals do NOT rust. They form 'oxides.
What magnets reacts to certain metals?
Magnets attract ferromagnetic metals, alloys, oxides or other compounds; examples are: iron, cobalt, nickel, dysprosium, iron oxides, some compounds of lanthanides etc.
What determines the reactivity of a metal?
How well it can replace other metals in a reaction. For example iron is more active than copper, because CuSO4 + Fe --> FeSO4 + Cu reaction occurs. And Cu + FeSO4 --> no reaction
Is ductile a non metal or metal?
Ductile metals are metals that5 can be shaped and pulled. Gold is a example of a ductile metal so in other words, yes it is a type of metals. Ductility is a property of some metals. It is also a property of materials other than metal.
