A strip of metal X is dipped in the blue coloured salt solution `YSO_(4)` . After some time, a layerof metal Y from the salt solution is formed on the surface of metal strip. X metal Z is used in galvanisation whereas metal Y is used in making electric wires. Metal X and metal Y togehter form an alloy Z. (a) What could metal X be. (b) What could metal Y be ? (c) Name the metal salt `YSO_(4)`. (d) What type of chemical reaction takes place when metal X reacts with salt solution `YSO_(4)` ? Write the equation of the chemical reaction involved. (e) Name the alloy Z.
