Answer»

Solution :(i) Metal (A) belongs to period 3 and group 13, is Aluminium (AI).
(ii) (A) Al in red hot condition reacts with steam to form Aluminium oxide (B).
`underset((A)) (2Al) + underset(("Steam"))(3H_(2)O) to underset(("Aluminium oxide")(B)) (Al_(2)O_(3) + 3H_(2) uparrow`
(iii) Aluminium (A) reacts with strong alkali forms sodium meta aluminate (C).
`2Al + 2NAOH + 2H_(2)O to 2NaAlO_(2) + 3H_(2) uparrow`
