19
Q

Insoluble in water rules

A

Silver,lead chloride
Lead, barium, calcium sulfate

20
Q

How do you make insoluble salts

A

Add two soluble salts to make insoluble salt

21
Q

The more H+ ions an acid has…

A

The lower the pH - 1/2

22
Q

The less H+ ions in an acid…

A

The higher the pH - 4/5

23
Q

Strong acids

A

Sulphuric acid
Hydrochloric acid
nitric acid

24
Q

Weak acid

A

Ethanoic acid
Citric acid
Carbonic acid

25
Q

Method for lead nitrate + sodium chloride - lead chloride +sodium nitrate

A

Add lead nitrate to test tube + add deionised water
Add sodium chloride to another tube and water
Mix together - lead chloride should precipitate out
Filter solution - scrape lead chloride onto filter paper

26
Q

How do you make a soluble salt?

A

React an acid with an insoluble salts

27
Q

Making soluble salts method

Sulphuric acid and copper oxide

A

Add base to a liquid
Filter off the excess solid
Evaporate the water
Allow to cool and allow salt to crystallise

28
Q

Titration method

A

Pipette and filler - transfer 25cm of aqueous sodium hydroxide into flask- add drop of phenopeliain - close tap on burette -fill hcl
Record initial burette reading from meniscus
Add hcl to sodium hydroxide - mix gently
Record final burette reading - calculate titre and repeat 3 times

29
Q

Electrolytes

A

A molten or dissolved ionic compound

30
Q

Electrolysis

A

The breaking down of a substance using electricity

An electric current is passed through an electrolyte causing it to decompose

31
Q

Positive ions in electrolysis

A

Cations in the electrolyte move towards the cathode -negative electrode- and are reduced - gain electrons-

32
Q

Negative ions in electrolysis

A

Anions in the electrolyte move towards the anode -positive electrode- are oxidised - lose electrons
This creates a flow of charge through the electrolyte

33
Q

Why can’t an ionic solid not be electrolysed?

A

The ions are in a fixed position and can’t move

34
Q

Why can molten ionic compounds be electrolysed?

A

The ions can move freely and conduct electricity

35
Q

Predicting products of electrolysis- positive metal ions

A

Reduced to metal atoms at the cathode

36
Q

Predicting products of electrolysis - negative metal ions

A

Oxidised to atoms at the cathode

37
Q

MASH

A

Metal + Acid — Salt + hydrogen

38
Q

BASHO

A

Base + Acid — Salt + Water

39
Q

CASHOCO

A

Carbonate + Acid — water+ carbon dioxide

40
Q

Examples of base

A

Any metal followed by oxide or hydroxide
