Q

How do we test for carbon dioxide

A

It will turn limewater cloudy

17
Q

Reactivity series

A

The further down the list you go the less reactive they get

18
Q

How do you test for oxygen

A

Blowing out a lit splint and if it’s still glowing then put it in a container and if it relights there is oxygen

19
Q

What is displacement

A

When a more reactive mental displaces a less reactive metal

20
Q

What is a chemical reaction

A

One that can’t be reversed

21
Q

How do we test for hydrogen

A

Is there was an acid producing hydrogen the putting in a lit splint is hydrogen is present then it will pop
