Which of the following properties indicate that an element is a metal. It
I. reacts with oxygen to form an acidic oxide
II. forms ionic chlorides
III. has variable oxidation states
IV. displaces hydrogen from dilute HCl
I and III only
I and II only
II and IV only
I, II, III and IV
Correct answer is C
- Ionization behaviour; The atoms of non-metals usually have four to seven valence electrons. They have a great tendency to ionize by accepting electrons to form negative ions.
- Reaction with acids; A metal which is more electro positive than hydrogen readily displaces the hydrogen ion, H+, from an acid.
