25 25 A piece of wire of resistance R is cut into three equal parts. These parts are then connected in parallel. If the equivalent resistance of this parallel combination is R, what is the value of the ratio R : R?

MnO2 (s) + Al(s) Mn(1) + Al2O3(s) + Heat a) Give reason why the above reaction is known as a thermite reaction. b) Identify the substance oxidised and reduced in the above reaction. c) Give a reason why Aluminium is preferably used in thermite reactions. An element 'M' with electronic configuration 28 3 combines separately with C1, SO4 anions. Write the chemical formulae of the compounds formed. Predict with the suitable reason the nature of the bond formed by element 'M' in general. How will the electrical conductivity of the compounds formed vary with respect to 'M'? OR A reddish-brown metal 'X', when heated in air, gives a black compound 'Y', which when heated in presence of H2 gas gives 'X' back. 'X' is refined by the process of electrolysis; this refined form of 'X' is used in electrical wiring. Identify 'X' and 'Y'. Draw a well-labeled diagram to represent the process of refining 'X'.
