Metals and Non-metals
धातु और अधातु
In this Class 10 Science topic from “Chemical Substances – Nature and Behaviour,” students explore how metals and non-metals differ in their physical and chemical properties. They learn about reactions with oxygen, water, acids and bases, the reactivity series, formation and properties of ionic compounds, and the basic principles of extracting metals from ores. The topic also explains corrosion, its prevention, and the everyday uses of metals and non-metals, helping students connect chemical behaviour with familiar materials and processes.
