We know that ductility is the property of a substance by virtue of which it can be drawn into thin wire. Generally metals are ductile. For example, copper, iron, aluminium. But mercury is the only metal that is liquid at room temperature and cannot be deformed into wires. Also, sodium and potassium are difficult to deform into wires. Non-metals are non-ductile in nature.

Metals like sodium, potassium calcium and magnesium are extracted by electrolysis of their chlorides in molten state. These metals are not extracted by reduction of their oxides with carbon because (i) reduction with carbon is very expensive (ii) carbon readily makes alloys with these metals. (iii) carbon has less affinity for oxygen (iv) carbon is a weaker reducing agent than these metals.

13. Formulae related to spherical mirrors Relationship between radius of curvature and focus The focal length of a spherical mirror is equal to half of its radius of curvature. Mirror formula In a spherical mirror, the distance of the object from its pole is called the object distance (u). The distance of the image from the pole of the mirror is called the image distance (v). The relationship between object distance , the image distance and the focal length is given by mirror formula which is as given below, Magnification (m) The ratio of height of image to the height of object is called 'magnification' or 'linear magnification'.

What will be set of genes present in the generation? Tt b. Give reason why only tall plants are observed in progeny. c. When plants were self - pollinated, a total of 800 plants were produced. How many of these would be tall and short plants? Give the genotype of generation. OR When plants were cross- pollinated with plants having tt genes, a total of 800 plants were produced. How many of these would be tall and short plants? Give genotype of generation. Q39. A student did an experiment with a convex lens. He put an object at different distances and from the lens.
