MCQ
Which one is wrong in the following statements
  • A
    Gold is considered to be the king of metals
  • B
    Gold is soluble in mercury
  • C
    Copper is added to gold to make it hard
  • None of these

Answer

Correct option: D.
None of these
d
The king of metals is Gold.

Gold forms Amalgam with Mercury. Hence, it is soluble in Mercury.

Pure gold is very soft. So, impurities of Silver and Copper are added in order to make it harder.
