Q

Oxidation in terms of electrons is?

A

Oxidation is the loss of electrons

19
Q

Reduction in terms of electrons is?

A

Reduction is the gain of electrons

20
Q

What are the products of the reactants metal and an acid?

A

Metal Salt and hydrogen

21
Q

How are acids neutralised?

A

Alkalis (soluble metal hydroxides) and basis (insoluble metal hydroxides and metal oxides).

22
Q

In a neutralization reaction, what are the products?

A

Metal salt and Water

23
Q

In a neutralization reaction which uses metal carbonates, what are the products?

A

Metal salts, water and carbon dioxide.

24
Q

How can a soluble salt be produced?

A

Reacting an acid with a solid insoluble substance.

25
Q

Solid salts are formed by?

A

Crystallization of a soluble salt

26
Q

Acids form what form of ion in an aqueous solution?

A

H+ ions

27
Q

Alkalis form what form of ion in an aqueous solution?

A

OH- ions

28
Q

What is Alkalinity measured in.

A

pH 0-14, measured using Universal indicator

29
Q

In a neutralisation reaction, what is formed?

A

Water, as OH- and H+ ions bond together

30
Q

What is a measuring by titration?

A

The method by which one can work out neutralising quantities of Acids and Alkalis.

31
Q

What is a strong acid?

A

An acid which completely ionis’.

32
Q

Name some examples of strong acids?

A

Hydrochloric, nitric and sulfuric acids.

33
Q

What is a weak acid?

A

An acid which only partially ionis’.

34
Q

Name some examples of weak acids?

A

Ethanoic, citric and carbonic acids.

35
Q

As pH decreases by one unit what happens?

A

The hydrogen ion concentration increases by a factor of 10

36
Q

What is required in electrolysis?

A

Free ions which can pass through a solution.

37
Q

A solution which has free ions and can conduct electricity is an?

A

Electrolyte

38
Q

In electrolysis, the positive electrode is?

A

The anode

39
Q

In electrolysis, the negative electrode is?

A

The cathode

40
Q

What happens at the electrodes during electrolysis?

A

Ions are discharged forming elements.

41
Q

What are the products of electrolysis of ionic compounds?

A

Metals at the cathode and

Non-metals at the anode.

42
Q

When is electrolysis used in extracting metals?

A

When a metal is more reactive than carbon or reacts with carbon.

43
Q

What are the products of electrolysis of aqueous soloutions?

A

At the cathode- Hydrogen is produced if the metal is more reactive.
At the anode- Oxygen is produced unless the solution contains a halogen.
