Question Discussion & Solution

Concepts:

Physical Properties of Metals and Non-metals

Explanation:

• Iodine is lustrous. This is an exception to the physical properties of non - metals. Iodine is non-metal and non - metals have dull appearance. 
• Sodium is metal. Metals are usually hard so this is also an exception. 
• Graphite conducts electricity. This is an exception as graphite is a form of carbon and it is non - metal. 
• Copper being metal is not an exception as it is metals and metals are good conductors of heat. 

So the correct option is 'Copper is a good conductor of heat.'

The correct answer is F2.

Key Points

• F2 function key is used to edit the content of a cell in MS-Excel.
• To enter Edit mode, we can follow any of these steps:
  • Double-click the cell that contains the data that you want to edit.
  • Click the cell that contains the data that you want to edit, and then click anywhere in the formula bar.
  • Click the cell that contains the data that you want to edit, and then press F2.

Additional Information

Some important shortcuts used in MS Excel:

• Ctrl + N Create a new workbook.
• Ctrl + O Open an existing workbook.
• Ctrl + S Save the active workbook.
• F12 Save the active workbook under a new name, displays the Save as dialog box.
• Ctrl + W Close the active workbook.

• The operating system is a collection of programs that controls the overall operations of the computer.
• Operating systems are of two types namely, Open-source operating systems and Closed source operating systems.
• UBUNTU is free and open-source software.

The correct answer is Gold.

Key Points

• Gold is the most malleable metal as it can be hammered to a thickness of 0.0025 mm.
• 1 gram of gold can be beaten into a sheet that spreads across an area of 1 m².
• Malleability, as a physical property of metals, is used to describe a given metal’s reaction to compressive forces.
• A metal with low malleability, like tungsten, will shatter when exposed to compression.
• A metal with high malleability, like lead, will deform when compressed.

Logic:

Almirah, Safe, and Cupboard can be closed. They have doors whereas Rack is an open framework.

Important PointsRack means a framework, typically with rails, bars, hooks, or pegs, for holding or storing things.

Hence, rack is the odd one out.
