25
What are the three things that make it worth extracting a metal?
How easy it is to extract How much metal the ore contains The changing demands for a particular metal
26
What does carbon displace?
Less reactive metals from their oxides
27
Why use hydrogen to reduce oxide rather than carbon?
Carbon can result in the compound tungsten carbide
28
How are more reactive metals extracted from their ores if not reduction?
Electrolysis
29
When does a salt form?
When the hydrogenate in an acid is wholly or partially replaced by metal ions
30
How can you make salts?
Reacting metals more reactive than hydrogen with acid
31
Complete the equation Metal + acid ——>
A salt + hydrogen
32
Why are alkali metals not reacted with acid?
Reaction is too vigorous
33
What is formed when a metal reacts with HCL?
Salt chlorides
34
What is formed when a metal reacts with sulphuric acid?
Sulfate salts
35
What is formed when a metal reacts with nitric acid?
Nitrate salts
36
Complete the equation Mg + H^2SO^4—>
MgSO^4 + H^2
37
What are spectator ions?
ions that Do not change in the reaction
38
Complete the half equation Mg——>
Mg^2+ + 2e-
39
If atoms lose electrons they have been...?
Oxidised
40
If an atom gains electrons, they have been...?
Reduced
41
What is a redox reaction?
Metal atoms donate electrons to hydrogen atoms displacing hydrogen as a gas and leaving metal ions the solution
42
What are bases?
Compounds that can neutralise acids
43
What happens when you react an acid with a base?
Salt and water is formed
44
What are salts made up of?
Positive metal ions and a negative ion from an acid
45
What charge are salts?
No charge
46
What happens when an acid and alkali react?
Neutralise, creating a salt and water
47
How do you collect a pure dry sample of salts?
Carry out the titration with the indicator to see how much acid reacts completely with the alkali Run that volume of acid into the solution of alkali again, but without the indicator again Then crystallise and dry out the crystals of salt from the reaction mixture
48
What is the equation for acid and a carbonate?
Acid + a carbonate —> a salt + water + carbon dioxide
49
Give an example of an aqueous solution?
Washing powder in a washing machine
50
What are soluble hydroxides called?
Alkalis
51
What ph is pure water?
Neutral 7
52
What do all acids release when reacting with water?
Excess H+ ions
53
What do alkalis produce when reacting with water?
Aqueous hydroxide solutions
54
What makes a solution alkaline?
Excess aqueous hydroxide ions
55
What is the sign for a hydroxide ion?
OH-
56
What are indicators?
Substances that change colour when added to acid or alkalis
57
What is the highest and lowest number on the PH scale?
0 and 14
58
What happens when you dilute a strong acid?
Eventually becomes harmless
59
What is the link between concentrated solutions and dilute solutions?
Concentrated solutions contain more of that solute than solutions of the same volume of a dilute solution
60
Give examples of weak acids
Ethanoic acid - strong acid is HCL Citric acid- strong acid is nitric acid Carbonic acid- strong acid is sulfuric acid
61
What are carboxylic acids?
Weak acids
62
What makes a solution acidic?
H+ ions
63
What is equilibrium?
The point in a reversible reaction at which the forward and backward rates of reaction are the same- this amounts remain constant
64
What is the difference in PH value of strong and weak acids?
Weak acids have a higher PH
65
What does decreasing the concentration of H+ ions mol/dm do to the PH level?
As the concentration per dm reduces by a factor of ten, the PH goes up by one
66
As the concentration of H+ ions increase by a factor of ten, what happens to the PH level?
Decreases by one unit
