Chemical reactions Flashcards
What happens when you combine metal chloride and oxygen
MgCl2 (s) + O2 (g)
metal chlorate
MgCl2 (s) + O2 (g) -> Mg(ClO3)2(s)
hydrogen +nonmetal
simple acid
What is an acidic oxide
an oxide that when reacting with water, turns into an acid
ex. carbon dioxide it makes carbonic acid,
nitrogen oxides NO2+H2O - > HNO3 + HNO2
Sulfur oxides
Metal oxide + carbon dioxide
metal carbonate
Non-metal oxide + water
oxyaxid
What does HCl(g) + NH3(g) make
NH4Cl(s)
What makes acids
non metal oxides and water
What makes bases(hydroxides)
metal oxides and water
Acid oxide + basic oxide
CO2(g) + CaO(s)
“Salt” ionic compound
CO2(g) + CaO(s) - > CaCo3
What does metal nitrate decompose into
Metal nitrite and oxygen gas
Metal + acid ->
new compound + water
How does the metal activity series help reaction perdiction
One element can displace things that are below it but not above it
The farther apart the elements are the faster the reaction will take place. only for SD reactions
What are some problems with the activity series
only works if the reaction is aqueous or room temp
also ex.
Aluminum should react with hydrogen in steam but aluminum oxide needs to be scubbed off first
Copper cant displace hydrogen from acids but it can react with nitric and sulfuric acid bc they are oxidization agents
How can single displacement be used
to remove metal from a solution
DD will only happen if one of the products is…(3)
- A precipitate (no reaction if both products are aq)
- One product is a gas
- on products is a molecular compound
