Why is potassium more reactive than lithium?

A

Because potassium is able to lose its outer electron easier than lithium because the larger radius means that the force of attraction from the nucleus is weaker.

Q

C4 - The Periodic Table

What are the properties of Group 1 Metals?

A

Low melting point and boiling point. Low density (lithium, sodium and potassium float on water). Very soft - can be cut with a knife.

46
Q

C4 - The Periodic Table

A

Fairly reactuve, poisonous green gas (low boiling point)

47
Q

48
Q

C4 - The Periodic Table

49
Q

C4 - The Periodic Table

Why are metals strong and able to bend into different shapes?

A

High tensile strength makes them hard to break. Can be hammered to different shapes because they are malleable.

50
Q

C4 - The Periodic Table

How are metals bonded?

A

With strong metallic bonds. Strong bond between delocalised electrons and positive ions. Outer electrons of each atom can move freely - delocalised and makes them good conductors of heat and electricity.

51
Q

C4 - The Periodic Table

What can transition metals be used for?

A

Catalysts - e.g. Iorn is used in Haber Process and nickel is used in hydrogenation of alkenes (making margarine).

52
Q

What colour are iron and copper compounds?

A

USUALLY: Iron (II) = light green Iron (III) = orange/brown Copper = blue

53
Q

C4 - The Periodic Table

A

A metal oxide and carbon dioxide - usually results in a colour change

54
Q

C4 - The Periodic Table

What is a precipitate?

A

Where two solutions react and as solid forms in the solution

55
Q

A

Barium chloride - if a white precipitate forms then sulphate ions are present

56
