sulfuric acid =

A

sulfate salts

24
Q

strong acids

A

-completely ionised in water

hydrochloric acid, nitric acid & sulfuric acid

25
Q

weak acids

A

-partially ionised in water

ethanoic acid, citric acid & carbonic acid

26
Q

soluble salts from insoluble bases

A

can be made by reacting acids with insoluble bases

27
Q

insoluble bases

A

metal oxides, metal hydroxides & metal carbonates

28
Q

practical=

A
  • copper oxide + sulfuric acid
  • filter to remove any unreacted copper oxide
  • evaporate using electric heater to leave behind blue crystals of the โ€˜saltโ€™ copper sulfate
29
Q

electrolysis

A

using electrical current to break down compounds

30
Q

negatively charged ions move

A

to the anode

31
Q

anode

A

positive electrode

32
Q

positively charged ions move

A

to the cathode

33
Q

cathode

A

negative electrode

34
Q

negative electrode

A
  • hydrogen is produced if metal is more reactive than hydrogen
  • the metal is produced if the metal is less reactive than hydrogen
35
Q

positive electrode

A
  • oxygen is produced unless the solution contains halide ions
  • if halide ions are present, halogen is produced
36
Q

electrolysis of sodium chloride solution

A
  • hydrogen is released at the negative electrode

- chlorine gas is released at the positive electrode
