To protect iron from rusting it is coated with a thin layer of zinc. Name this process.

Name a non-metal that has a metallic lustre and sublimes on heating.

Predict the group of an element X if its atomic number is 16.

X, Y and Z are three crystalline solid which is soluble in water and have a common anion to help you to identify X, Y and Z, you are provided with the following experiment observation. Copy and complete the corresponding inferences in (i) to (iv).

A reddish -brown gas is obtained when X, Y and Z, are separately warmed with concentrated sulphuric acid and copper turnings added to the mixture.

INFERENCE: 1 The common anion is the .............ion
