The simplest method of welding two pieces of metal together is known as pressure welding. The ends of metal are heated to a white heat-for iron, the welding temperature should be about 1300^(@)C -in a flame. At this temperature the metal becomes plastic. The ends are then pressed or hammered together, and the joint is smoothed off. Care must be taken to ensure that the surfaces are thoroughly clean first, for dirt will weaken the weld. Moreover, the heating of iron or steel to a high temperature cause oxidation, and a film of oxide is formed on the heated surfaces. For this reason, a flux is applied to the heated metal. At welding heat, the flux melts, and the oxide particles are dissolved in it together with any other impurities which may be present. The metal surfaces are pressed together, and the flux is squeezed out from the centre of the weld. A number of different types of weld may be used, but for fairly thick bars of metals, a vee-shaped weld should normally be employed. It is rather stronger than the ordinary but weld.

A cyclindrical ice block is floating in water 10% of its total volume is outside water. Kerosene oil (relative density=0.8) is poured slowly on top of water in the container. Assume that the oil does not mix with water. Height of the ice cylinder is H. (a) As kerosene is poured, how does the volume of ice block above the water level change? (b) What is the thickness of kerosene layer above the water when 20% of the volume of the ice block is above the water surface? (c) Find the ratio of voume of ice block is kerosene to its volume in water after the kerosene layer rises above the top surface of ice and the block gets completely submerged. Neglect any melting of ice.

A metal slowly forms an oxide film which completely protects the metal when the film thickness is 3.956 thousand ths of an inch. If the film thickness is 1.281 thou. in 6 weeks, how much longer will it be before it is 2.481 thou? The rate of film formation follows first order kinetics.

On exposure to air, alkali metals get tranished due to formation of oxides, hydroxides and carbonates on their surface. When heated in air or oxygen they burn vigourously forming different types of oxides depending upon the nature of the metal. The formation and stability of these metals can be explained on the basis of size of alkali metal ion and the anion. Peroxides are colourless, while superoxides are coloured. The normal oxides are basic while peroxides and superoxides act as oxidising agents. On heating in excess of oxygen, lithium gives
