Q

Explain the similarities and differences between the reactions of sulfuric acid, H2SO4, with copper and with copper oxide. You should use balanced equations as part of your explanation and make reference to why the products may be different.

A
  1. Both will involve the H+ being displaced by the copper.
  2. Both will form the salt copper sulfate, CuSO4.
  3. Both would be exothermic changes.
  4. H2SO4 + Cu → CuSO4 + H2O
  5. H2SO4 + CuO → CuSO4+ H2
  6. Copper oxide will react with sulphuric acid to produce water as oxygen is present and this joins with the 2H+ from the acid.
  7. Copper produces hydrogen gas as there is no oxygen available to join with the H+ to form water.
  8. A gas would be release when copper reacts, so this reaction would fizz, the reaction with copper oxide would not.

Q

How can we test for hydrogen gas?

A

Collect the gas

Hold a lit splint next to it

Squeaky pop = hydrogen!

Q

Describe what a salt is.

A

Formed by reaction of a metal with an acid

Hydrogen atoms of the acid are replaced by the atoms of the metal element.
