Q

What is: ELECTROLYSIS?

A

A process in which a compound is broken down into its elements using electricity.

20
Q

Why is a direct current used in electrolysis?

A

So that one of the electrodes is always positive and the other is alwas negative.

21
Q

During the electrolysis of an acid, what is always formed at the negative electrode?

22
Q

What is: the process in which a compound is broken down into its elements using electricity?

A

Electrolysis.

23
Q

During the electrolysis of an acid, hydrogen is always formed at what electrode?

A

The negative electrode.

24
Q

Diluton of an acid cause the pH to…?

A

Rise towards 7.

25
Diluton of an alkali cause the pH to...?

26
Diluting an acid by a factor of 10..?
Increases the pH by 1
27
Diluting an alkali by a factor of 10..?

31
What is the equation for neutralisation with REACTIVE METALS (mazit metals)?
'MAZIT' metal + acid --------> salt + hydrogen
32

40
What are: Ionic compounds usually made of a positive metal ion and a negative non-metal ion?
Salts
41
What is the equation for titration?
c1v1/ n1 = c2v2/n2
42
What is GRAM FORMULA MASS?
Gram formula mass is the mass of one mole of a substance.
43
What does the triangle for MOLES TO MASS OR MASS TO MOLES look like?
m (mass of substance, g) n (no. of moles, mol) / gfm (gram formula mass,g)
44
What is the equation for MOLES TO MASS OR MASS TO MOLES?
m= n x gfm
45
What does the triangle for CALCULATING THE CONCENTRATION OF A SOLUTION look like?
n (number of moles, mol) c (concentration, moll/l) / V (volume, litres L)
46
What is the equation for CALCULATING THE CONCENTRATION OF A SOLUTION?
n= c x V
