    Metals

    (i) Metals form basic oxides or amphoteric oxides.

    (ii) Metals replace hydrogen from acids and form salts.

    (iii) With chlorine, metals form chlorides which are electrovalent.

    (iv) With hydrogen few metals form hydrides which are electrovalent.

    (i) Non-metals form acidic or neutral oxides.

    (ii) Non-metals do not replace hydrogen from acids.

    (iii) With chlorine, non-metals form chlorides which are covalent.

    (iv) With hydrogen, non-metals form many stable hydrides which are covalent.

    (c) Applying a coating of zinc

    Rusting can be prevented by applying grease and oil. But, in case of an iron frying pan, grease and paint cannot be applied because when the pan is heated and washed again and again, the coating of grease and paint gets destroyed. Therefore Zinc coating is done i.e. galvanisation to prevent rusting.
