Can you store lemon pickle in an aluminium utensil? Explain.
Answer :
Lemon pickle is acidic in nature. Aluminium metal is highly reactive in nature. If the pickle is stored in an aluminium container, the acid present in pickle will react with aluminium and the pickle will be spoiled.
Hence, we cannot store lemon pickle in aluminium container.

Lakhmir Singh & Manjit Kaur - ScienceAn element burns in air to form an oxide. The aqueous solution of this oxide turns blue litmus paper red. State whether the element is a metal or nonmetal. Name one such element.
Lakhmir Singh & Manjit Kaur - ScienceThe metal X reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to form a gas Y. The metal X also reacts with sodium hydroxide solution (on heating) to form the same gas Y. When a lighted matchstick is applied, this gas burns by producing a ‘pop’ sound.
