By which method/process is ammonia gas manufactured?

Which method is used to collect $H_2$ gas in a gas jar in the laboratory?

Which among the following changes are exothermic or endothermic in nature?
$(a)$ Decomposition of ferrous sulphate
$(b)$ Dilution of sulphuric acid
$(c)$ Dissolution of sodium hydroxide in water
$(d)$ Dissolution of ammonium chloride in water

Why are decomposition reactions called the opposite of combination reactions? Write equations for these reactions.

$A$ metal compound $'A'$ reacts with dilute sulphuric acid to produce a gas which extinguishes a burning candle. Identify the compound $'A'$ and the gas produced. Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction if one of the compounds formed in the reaction is sodium sulphate.

$A$ reddish-brown coloured metal, used in electrical wires, when powdered and heated strongly in an open china dish, its colour turns black. When hydrogen gas is passed over this black substance, it regains its original colour. Based on the above information, answer the following questions:
$(i)$ Name the metal and the black coloured substance formed.
$(ii)$ Write balanced chemical equations for both the reactions.
