metals displacement

Cards (11)

  • the reactive activity series shows the most reactive to least reactive elements in order
  • Displacement is where a more reactive substance undergo chemicals change
  • in a displacement reaction, a more reactive metal pushes out a less reactive metal from its compound.
  • tin is less reactive than carbon
  • metals are a type of rock which contains metals compounds.
  • to get metal out of an ore you must do a displacement reflection with carbon.
  • oxidation- adding oxygen
  • redution- removing oxygen
  • the ores are heated with carbon to make the metal
  • oxygen is removed from the ore by the carbon
  • electrolysis is splitting up substances using electricity
