18
Q

What is used to extract metals from their oxides and why?

A

Carbon because it is more reactive than most metals

19
Q

How are metals that are more reactive than carbon extracted?

A

Through electrolysis

20

A

Magnesium chloride + hydrogen

24
Q

Sulfuric acid + magnesium

A

Magnesium sulfate +hydrogen

25
Q

Why does Magnesium displace hydrogen from the acids?

As the pH scale decreases by one unit………………

A

The concentration of hydrogen ions increase by ten times

40
Q

What does the concentration of a given acid tell us?
