Q

What happens in a redox reaction?

A

In a redox reaction, the metal donates electrons to the hydrogen ions. This displaces hydrogen as a gas while the metal ions are left in the solution

Q

Where does the cation move?

A

24
Q

Where does the anion move?

A

The anion moves to the positive anode

25
Q

What substance will be produced at the negative electrode if it is less reactive than hydrogen?

A

The negative electrode produces metals

26
Q

What is produced from the positive electrode?

A

The positive electrode produces oxygen

27
Q

What do the discharged ions depend on in aqueous solutions?

A

The discharged ions in aqueous solutions depend on the relative reactivity of the elements involved

28
Q

What happens to strong acids in aqueous solutions?

A

In aqueous solutions, acids are completely ionised

29
Q

What happens to weak acids in aqueous solutions?

A

In aqueous solutions, weak acids are partially ionised

30
Q

How are soluble salts made?

A

Soluble salts can be made from reacting acids with solid insoluble substances eg metal and metal oxide

31
Q

What is the process of making soluble salts?

A

Soluble salts are produced by adding solid to an acid until no more dissolves, and then filtering off excess solid and then crystallise to produce solid salts

32
Q

What ions do acids produce?

A

Acids produce H+ ions (hydrogen ions)

33
Q

What ions do alkalis produce?

A

Alkalis produce OH- ions (hydroxide ions)

34
Q

How can you show what is happening at an electrode?

A

You can show what is happening at an electrode by using half equations

35
Q

How can metals be extracted from molten compounds?

A

You can extract metals from molten compounds using electrolysis

36
Q

When is electrolysis carried out to extract metals?

A

Electrolysis is carried out to extract metals when the metal is too reactive to be extracted by reduction with carbon

37
Q

What is the issue with using electrolysis?

A

Electrolysis is expensive due to the large amount of energy needed to produce the electric current

38
Q

What ions are involved in aqueous solutions?

A

In aqueous solutions, H+ and OH- ions are produced

39
Q

What will happen to the metal if it is more reactive than hydrogen?

A

If the metal is more reactive than hydrogen, then hydrogen will form at the cathode

40
Q

What will happen to the metal if it is less reactive than hydrogen?

A

If the metal is less reactive than hydrogen, then the metal will form at the cathode

41
Q

What are the ions involved in brine (sodium chloride solution) (NaCl) ?

A

The ions involved in brine include, Na+, Cl-, H+, OH-

42
Q

What will happen at the cathode during the electrolysis of brine? (sodium chloride solution)

A

At the cathode during the electrolysis of brine,2 H+ ions are gaining 2 electrons to form H2. This is because hydrogen always comes in pairs so the equation will have to be balanced. Also because they are at the cathode and hydrogen is a positive ion, it will be reduced and will gain electrons.

43
Q

What will happen at the anode during the electrolysis of brine (sodium chloride solution)

A

At the anode during the electrolysis of brine, 2 CL- ions lose 2 electrons to form Cl2. This is because chlorine always comes in pairs so the equation will have to be balanced. Also because they are at the anode and chlorine is a negative ion, it will be oxidised and lose electrons.

44
Q

What happens at the cathode in electrolysis?

A

In electrolysis, the cathode produces positive ions where they are reduced and gain electrons

45
Q

What happens at the anode in electrolysis?

A

In electrolysis, the anode produces negative ions which are oxidised and lose electrons

46
Q

What does the acronym PANIC stand for?

A

PANIC stands for positive is the anode, negative is cathode

47
Q

What does the acronym OILRIG stand for?

A

OILRIG stands for oxidation is loss (of electrons), Reduction is gain (of electrons)

48
Q

Which subatomic particle do acids produce in water?

A

Acids produce protons in water

49
Q

Which type of solution do acids ionise in?

A

Acids ionise in aqueous solutions

50
Q

What happens when strong acids ionise completely in water?

A

When strong acids ionise completely in water, all the acid particles dissociate to release H+ ions

51
Q

What is a reversible reaction?

A

A reversible reaction is when the products can be turned back into the reactants, which sets up an equilibrium between the dissociated and undissociated acids.

52
Q

If the concentration of H+ ions is high, what happens to the rate of reaction?

A

If the concentration of H+ ions is high, the rate of reaction will be faster

53
Q

Why are strong acids more reactive than weak acids?

A

Strong acids are more reactive than weak acids because they have a high concentration of h+ ions and so the rate of reaction will be faster

54
Q

For every decrease of 1 on the pH scale, the concentrations of H+ ions increases by _ _ _ _

A

For every decrease of 1 on the pH scale, the concentrations of H+ ions increase by a factor of 10

55
Q

What does the concentration of an acid measure?

A

The concentration of an acid measures how watered down that acid is
