What is produced when a metal reacts with an acid?
A metal hydroxide solution and hydrogen
What is produced when the alkali metals react with water?
For comparison
Why does the reactivity series of metals often contain carbon and hydrogen?
A more reactive metal will displace the less reactive metal from its salt
What happens in a displacement reaction?
By reduction with carbon (heat then with carbon)
How can metals that are less reactive that carbon be extracted from their oxides?
Hydroxide (OH-)
What ions is found in all alkalis?
Hydrogen, H+
What ion is found in all acids?
The acidity or alkalinity is a substance
What is the pH scale a measure of?
7
What is a neutral pH?
Between 0 and 6 (Closer to 0, the stronger the acid)
What is the range of acidic pH?
Between 8 and 14 (Closer to 14, the stronger the alkali)
What is the range of alkaline pH?
Using a pH probe or universal indicator
How can we measure the pH?
Dyes that change colour depending on if they're in an acidic or alkaline solution
What is an indicator?
Red
What colour does litmus paper go in an acid?
Blue
What colour does litmus paper go in an alkali?
Acid + metal hydroxide = salt + water
What is the neutralisation equation for a acid and metal hydroxide?
H+ + OH- = H2O
What is the neutralisation equation for an acid and alkali reacting?
Acid + metal oxide = salt + water
What is the neutralisation equation for an acid and a metal oxide?
Acid + metal carbonate = salt + water + carbon dioxide
What is the neutralisation equation for an acid and a metal carbonate?
Metal name, name from acid
How do we name the salts in a neutralisation equation?
Chloride salts
What type of salt does hydrochloric acid produce?
Nitrate salts
What type of salts does nitric acid produce?
Which of the following metals will react vigorously with oxygen at room temperature?GoldCopperCalciumPotassium
potassium
What is the balanced equation for the reaction of sodium with oxygen?
4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O
What are the products of the reaction of calcium with water?
Calcium hydroxide and hydrogen
What are the products of the reaction of zinc with sulfuric acid?
Zinc sulfate and hydrogen
What would you expect to see when magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid?
Bubbles/fizzing
give 3 facts about the reactivity series
Metals in the middle of the table react with oxygen and acids, but not with waterMetals at the top of the table react with oxygen, water and acidsmetals at the top are the most reactive
What would you expect to see when zinc is added to copper sulfate solution?
When zinc is added to copper sulfate solution it displaces copper to form zinc sulfate. The blue copper sulfate solution will become colourless as zinc sulfate is formed, and copper will be produced as a brown solid.
What are the products of the reaction of silver oxide with hydrogen?
Hydrogen is above silver in the reactivity series so will displace silver in this reaction to form water plus silver.
what metal can be extracted from its native state from the eath ?
GOLD
Which of the following metals can be extracted from its ore by reduction with carbon?MagnesiumPotassiumCopperAluminium
copper
Which method could be used to extract calcium from the earth?
electrolysis
Which substance is reduced in the reaction: Zinc oxide + carbon → zinc + carbon dioxide?
Zinc oxide is reduced as it loses oxygen to form pure zinc.
What are the products of the reaction of sodium and hydrochloric acid?
Metals react with acids to form a salt plus hydrogen. sodium reacts with hydrochloric acid to form sodium chloride and hydrogen: 2Na +2HCl → 2NaCl + H2.
what reaction will produce a salt + water + carbon dioxide?
