Q

What metals are found in the Earth in their natural state and why?

A

Gold and silver because they are so unreactive

17
Q

Extracting metals using carbon, products

A

Metal and carbon dioxide

18
Q

How are metals that are more reactive than carbon extracted?

A

By electrolysis

19
Q

What is a salt?

A

A compound formed when the hydrogen in an acid is wholly or partially replaced by metal ions

20
Q

How can salts be made?

A

By reacting an acid with a metal that is more reactive than hydrogen but not dangerous

21
Q

What does a reaction between a metal and acid produce?

A

A salt and hydrogen

22
Q

What type of reaction is between a metal and an acid and why?

A

A redox reaction
The metal atoms lose electrons and the hydrogen ions gain electrons

23
Q

What does a reaction between an acid and a base produce?
What is this reaction called?

A

A salt and water

A neutralisation reaction

24
Q

Key fact of the charges on an ion

A

The sum of charges on a salt equal zero

25
Q

How to make pure copper sulfate crystals from sulfuric acid and copper oxide.

A

-Gently heat 30cm3 of sulfuric acid in beaker over bunsen burner
-Add 2 spatulas of copper oxide, stir, ensure it is in excess
-Filter the solution through filter paper
-Pour solution in evaporating basin, gently heat until most of liquid has evaporated
-Leave rest of liquid to evaporate slowly, larger crystals and gently dry

26
Q

What does a reaction between an acid and alkali produce?
What is this called?

A

A salt and water

Neutralisation

27
Q

Neutralisation balanced symbol equation

A

H+ + OH- —–> H2O

28
Q

How to collect a pure, dry salt from a reaction with an acid and alkali

A

Carry out a titration (with indicator) to find the exact volume of acid needed. Use same volume of acid with alkali (no indicator). Crystallise

29
Q

What does a reaction between an acid and a carbonate produce?

A

A salt, water and carbon dioxide

30
Q

Acid

A

A substance that releases hydrogen ions (H+) in solution

31
Q

Base

A

A substance that neutralises an acid (including alkalis)

32
Q

Alkali

A

A soluble base- all alkalis form OH- ions in solution

33
Q

2 key ways to show how acidic or alkaline a solution is
What number shows acid, alkali and neutral?

A

pH scale
universal indicator
Acid=less than 7
Alkali=greater than 7
Neutral=7

34
Q

Difference between strong and weak acids?

A

Strong- ionise fully in water
Weak- partially ionises in water

35
Q

What happens to the H+ ions when the pH decreases by 1 unit?

A

The H+ ion concentration increases by a factor of 10
