32
Q

why does how the metal is separated from oxygen vary

A

depends on where it is in the reactivity series

33
Q

why is carbon used to extract less reactive metals

A

it is higher than the metals in the reactivity series so it is more reactive
steals the oxygen away
leaves metal by itself and makes carbon dioxide
called a displacement reaction

34
Q

what is it called as each metal loses oxygen

A

called a reduction reaction

35
Q

how are the most reactive metals extracted

A

electrolysis

36
Q

what is electrolysis

A

when we split the substance using electricity
the metal oxide is separated from the oxygen

37
Q

what is oxidation

A

when a substance gains oxygen
when a substance loses electrons

38
Q

what is reduction

A

when a substance loses oxygen
when a substance gains electrons

39
Q

where are the electrons on an oxidation half equation

A

always on the right

40
Q

where are the electrons in a reduction reaction half equation

A

always on the left

41
Q

what is a redox reaction

A

when a substance has been oxidised and a substance has been reduced at the same time

42
Q

what is an indicator

A

a substance which changes colour to tell you if something is acid or alkali

43
Q

what are indicator examples

A

litmus paper
universal indicators

44
Q

what is the colour and numbers of strong acids

A

1-3
red

45
Q

what is the colour and number of weak acids

A

4-5
orange/yellow

46
Q

what are everyday examples of acids

A

lemon juice
vinegar
fizzy drinks

47
Q

what are lab examples of acids

A

nitric acid
sulfuric acid
hydrochloric acid

48
Q

how does acid taste

A

sour

49
Q

what does an acid form in a solution

A

H+ ions

50
Q

what are the number and colours of weak alkalis

A

8-11
dark green/blue

51
Q

what are the number and colours of
strong alkali

A

12-14
blue/purple

52
Q

what are the everyday examples of alkali

A

bleach
soap
toothpaste
indigestion tablets

53
Q

what is a base

A

metal oxide or metal hydroxide that is insoluble

54
Q

what is an alkali

A

metal hydroxide that is soluble

55
Q

how do alkalis taste

A

bitter

56
Q

what do alkalis form in a solution

A

OH- ion

57
Q

how do you write ionic equations

A

re write the equation showing separate ions present in each substance
remove any spectator ions (ions that don’t change state or charge)
rewrite out the equation without the spectator ion

58
Q

what does the volume have to be in for concentration

A

dm^3

59
Q

how do you change cm^3 to dm^3

A

divide by 1000

60
Q

what is the concentration equation

A

concentration = mass of solute/ volume of solvent

61
Q

what units is concentration in

A

g/dm^3

62
Q

how would a change in mass of the solute affect the concentration

A

if we increase the mass the concentration will increase

63
Q

how would a change in volume of the solvent affect the concentration

A

decreasing the volume increases the concentration

64
Q

how do you identify strong and weak acids (test 1)

A
  • 2cm depth of each acid in 2 separate test tubes
  • add two drops of universal indicator to each acid and record the colour observed and work out ph number
65
Q

how do you identity strong and weak acids (test 2)

A
  • 2 cm depth of each acid into separate test tubes and add a piece of magnesium ribbon to each one
  • time how long it takes for the reaction to stop
66
Q

what is the result of test 1 of identifying strong and weak acids

A

strong acid turns red
weak acid turns orange

67
Q

what is the result of test 2 for strong and weak acids

A

strong acid would bubble more and would stop reacting first

68
Q

what is test 3 for identifying strong and weak acids

A
  • put 2cm depth of each acid into separate test tubes and add a spatula full of powdered sodium carbonate to each one
  • time how long it takes for the reaction to stop
69
Q

what are the results of test 3 of identifying strong and weak acids

A

strong acid bubbles more and stops reacting quicker

70
Q

what are 3 examples of a strong acid

A

hydrochloric acid
sulfuric acid
nitric acid

71
Q

what are 3 examples of a weak acid

A

ethanoic acid (vinegar)
citric acid (citrus fruits)
carbonic acid (fizzy drinks)

72
Q

what do strong acids do in water

A

completely ionise in water (this means the ions split up)

73
Q

what does strong acids completely ionising in water mean

A

the solution has a high concentration of H+ ions
low ph
this is not reversible

74
Q

what do weak acids do in water

A

partially ionise in water (only a small amount of acid molecules split up )

75
Q

why do weak acids partially ionise in water

A

have a low concentration of H+ IONS
higher pH

76
Q

how do you calculate pH

A

-log. [H+]
10

77
Q

how do you calculate [H+]

A

[H+] = 10^-PH

78
Q

what is a concordant result

A

two titres that are within 0.1cm^3 of eachother

79
Q

titration calculation steps

A

write known and unknown
moles= conc x volume/ 100
work out ratio
workout unknown concentration
convert mol/dm^3 to g/dm^3 = CONCENTRATION G/DM3 = concentration in mol/dm3 x mr of substance
