KPK 9th Class Chemistry Chapter 8 Chemical Reactivity Short Questions Answers

Identify at least two group that contain only metallic atoms.

The two group of periodic table which just possess metal sare 1st group as;

IA Group (Alkali Metals) IIA Group (Alkaline Earth Metals)
Li Be
Na Mg
K Ca
Rb Sr
Cs Ba
Fr Ra


</span>Write down reactions of IA elements with oxygen with balance equation.

Behaviour with oxygen:

  • All metals of this group burns in oxygen and form oxides (M2O)
  • Li burns with red flame.
  • Na burns with white flame.
  • K burns with a little colored flame.

  4Li+ 2O2→ 2Li2O
  4Na+2O2→ 2Na2O
  4K+ 2O2→ 2K2O

State the physical properties of metals.

The metals are generally consisted of the properties of:

  • Hardness 
  • Brightness 
  • Conductance & 
  • High electro positivity

How does sodium acts as reducing agent. Write its reaction also.

Na is one of the electro positivity elements. It loses its valence electron easily and reduces another one.
Example: In NaCl, sodium atom (Na) going to lose electron and get oxidation, while Cl2 gains electron and get reduction as; 
2Na + Cl2→2NaCl

I.E of alkaline earth metals is higher than alkali metals why?

Nuclear charge, atomic size, and valence electronic configuration are the factors which affect I.E.
Alkaline earth metals have smaller size and high nuclear charge, thus their valence electrons are tightly bonded to nucleus, thus need more and more energy to remove the valence electrons, that is why, I.E of alkaline earth metals is higher than alkali metals.
  Na→Na++ e                              I.E=496Kj/mole. 
Mg →Mg+++ e                           I.E=737.7 Kj/mole
</span>Pure gold is not used for ornaments, why?

Pure gold is a noble metal. It is too much soft resist the stresses. Thus alloying gold with other metals like copper, silver, platinum (which increases it durability) is used for ornaments and jewelry.
What are the of magnesium?

Mg is used in:

  • Manufacturing of alloys like duralumin (Al, Cu, Mg, Mu) and Magnalium (Al, Mg) which are used in construction of aircraft and cars.
  • Photographic plate, firework etc.
  • In extraction of Ti and U as deoxidant.
  • MgSO4 is used in paper industry, soap and textile industry.

Write down reaction of Cl<sub>2</sub> with NaOH with balance equations.

The expected reaction of Cl2 with NaOH is given below.
  NaOH +Cl2 →NaOCl+HCl
How does ionization energies values very group?

Groupwise (top to bottom) I.E of elements decreases. This decrease is due to increase in atomic size and shielding effect.

Element I.E (KJ/mol) Trend
Li 520 Chapter 8 chemistry
Decreases
Na 469
K 419
Rb 403


What happens during displacement reaction in halogens?

Generally the upper halogen, replaces lower halogen during displacement reaction as:
   2NaBr+Cl2→2NaCl+Br2
  2NaCl+F2→2NaF+ 2Cl2

How to Write Perfect Short Answers?

In Board Exams, the examiner looks for specific keywords and presentation. Here is how to attempt Chapter 8 questions:

  • Ideal Length: Write 3 to 5 lines for each short question. Too short gets fewer marks, too long wastes time.
  • Highlighting: Use a Blue Marker to highlight key dates, names, or scientific terms in your answer.
  • Units & Formulas: Always write the formula and SI unit. Without units, 0.5 marks are deducted.
