  • why are the crucible and contents heated for a extra 2 minutes?
    to ensure all the (..) has reacted
  • Disadvantage of using a lid
    The gases can’t escape easily
  • Why does the student stir the solution
    So there is a even distribution of heat
  • State the color of copper(||) sulfate solution
    Blue
  • relationship between temperature and rate of reaction
    Positive correlation
  • How to tell if a substance is pure or a mixture
    By measuring the melting point ,if the melting point is sharp the substance is pure. If the melting point is a mixture of ranges the substance is a mixture.
  • Which groups elements are all uncreactive
    Group 0
  • Isotope
    Atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons
  • Acid
    An acid is a proton donor
  • Hydrocarbon
    Is a compound that is made of hydrogen and carbon only
  • Isomer
    Compounds with the same molecular formula but different structures
  • Unsaturated
    Are compounds that contain a carbon-carbon double bond
  • Electrolysis
    To break down molten or aqueous compounds using electricity
  • Equilibrium
    When the rate of forwards and backwards solution in a equilibrium are equal and when the concentration of products and reactants are constant
  • Catalyst
    A substance that speeds up reactions by lowering the activation energy without being used up
  • Compound
    A substance that is made of two elements that are chemically combined
  • Amphoteric
    Is an oxide that reacts with acids and bases
  • Ionic bond
    Electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged forces
  • Characteristics of a homologous series
    • react similarly
    • general formula

  • Which element is a liquid at room temperature?
    bromine
  • methyl group

    CH,3
  • test for hydrogen:
    Use a burning splint at the open end of the gas tube this creates a “squeaky pop”
  • test for oxygen
    insert a glowing splint to the test tube of gas the splint will relight in oxygen
  • test for carbon dioxide
    Bubble gas through lime water it will turn milky/cloudy
