Q

Process of electrolysis

A

The process of electrolysis is where you pass electricity through a substance to spilt it into simpler species. To do this, an ionic solid must be melted so that the ions can move and conduct electricity.

Q

In the electrolysis of lead ll bromide, what happens at the anode?

A

Br- ions go to the anode, they lose electrons (oxidised) they join up and form Bromine, (Br2)

2Br- goes to Br2+2e-

Q

During the electrolysis of lead ll Bromide, what happens at cathode?

A

Pb2+ ions go to the cathode. They gain electrons (reduced) lead forms.

Pb2+ -2e- goes to Pb

23
Q

Sodium chloride

A

Chorine- product at anode

Sodium- product at cathode

24
Q

How to extract metal with charcoal

A

1- put one spatula of copper oxide into a crucible

2- add one spatula or charcoal (don’t mix)

3- put lid on and hear strongly for at least 5 mins

4- allow to cool

25
The reaction of metal with charcoal
Copper oxide + carbon --heat> copper + carbon dioxide. 2Cuo+ C(s) --> 2Cu(s) + Co2(g) In this reaction carbon is more reactive than copper and so it takes the oxygen away from the copper oxide. Copper oxide loses oxygen- reduced Carbon gains oxygen- oxidised
26
Iron ore
Fe2O3 haematite
27
Calcium carbonate
CaCo3
28
What things go into a blast furnace
Iron ore (fe203 heamatite) coke carbon and limestone (calcium carbonate CaCo3
29
Steel lined
With heat resistant brick
30
The blast furnace is used to extract
Iron from iron ore
31
Why is carbon used to extract
Because it is more reactive than iron and takes the oxygen away
32
Exothermic, main source of heat in he blast furnace
Carbon+oxygen --> Carbon Dioxide
33
Main reducing agent in blast furnace
Carbon dioxide + carbon --> carbon monoxide (2Co)
34
Iron (lll) oxide is then reduced to from iron the word equation for this is as follows:
Iron (lll) oxide + Carbon Dioxide --> iron + Carbon dioxide
35
Molten iron
2Fe (l)
36
Limestone decomposes to form
Calcium oxide, this then reacts with the main impurity which is silicon dioxide (SiO2) this forms calcium silicate
37
Calcium silicate
CaSiO3
38
Slag floats...
On top of the iron and can be used in road making CaCo3--> Cao+Co2 Cao+SiO2-->CaSiO3
39
What metals are useful but rust
Iron and steel
40
Rust forms in the presence of
Oxygen and water
41
What speeds up the rusting process
Salt
42
Electric current
a flow of electrons of ions
43
how to prevent rust
paint- creates a barrier so that water and oxygen can't get to the iron oil (e.g. bike chain) Galvanizing- coat the iron in zinc. the zinc reacts with oxygen to form a protective layer of zinc oxide.
44
Aluminium's ore
Bauxite
45
What happens in aluminium extraction
The aluminium oxide= Al2O3 Once melted, the jobs are: Al3+ and O2-
46
What happens in aluminium extraction at the Cathode
Al3+ ions go to the cathode. They gain electrons and aluminium forms. This is reduction
47
What happens in aluminium extraction at the cathode eq
Al3+ + 3e- ------> Al
48
What happens in aluminium extraction at the anode
O2- ions go to the anode. They lose electrons and oxygen forms, this is oxidation
49
What happens in aluminium extraction at the anode eq
2O2- ------> O2 + 4e- The oxygen reacts with carbon anodes to make C02 C + 02 -------> C02
50
What's irons ore
Haemotite
51
What's an ore
An oxidised metal- a metal in the earth combined with oxygen
52
The aluminium extraction at the anode...
This wears away the abodes so they need replacing regularly. EXPENSIVE!!! Electiricy is also expensive
53
the third blast furnace equation
fe203 + 3Co--> 2fe + 3CO2
