Q. 12. Discuss the reaction of sodium, magnesium, iron and gold with water.

Q. 13.

1. Give an example of the reaction between a non-metal oxide and sodium hydroxide. Write the balanced chemical equation also.
2. The pH of a solution is 4.8. What is its nature and what will be its action on blue litmus

Q. 14. The image, formed by a concave mirror, is observed to be

1. virtual, erect and larger than the object.
2. Real, inverted and larger than the object.
3. Real, inverted and of the same size as the object.
4. Real, inverted and smaller than the object.
   Where is the position of the object in each of these cases? Draw ray-diagrams to justify your choices
   for cases (I) and (III). Or

A beam of white light is made to fall on the three set-ups shown here.What are we likely to observe in each of these three cases ? How can we understand the similarity in the observations of cases(I) and (III)?
Name the seven colours linked with the observation in case (II) for sunlight
