Q

how do metals react

A

by losing electrons to form cations. the less energy required for this the more reactive the metal is.

Q

removing impurities

A

CaCO3 —> CaO + CO2
CaO + SiO —> CaSiO3
used for roads

17
Q

metal oxide properties

A

insoluble in water, but gp 1 reacts
high mpt
conducts electricity when liquid or aqeuos

18
Q

how can you extract Cu and Ag

A

through decomposition
2CuO —> 2Cu + O2

19
Q

how can you extract gp1-3

A

thorugh electrolysis
cations gather at negative cathode, anions at positive anode

20
Q

how can you extract transistion metals

A

through carbon displacement
2ZnO + C —> 2Zn + CO2

21
Q

alloy

A

a mixture which contains a metal and at least one other substance
ions of different sizes disrupt the lattice in an alloy. making the metal harder since the ions cannot slide as easily

22
Q

reactivity of metals depends on

A

no. of protons- more protons more reactive
no. of electrons needing to be lost- more electrons the lower the reactivity
no. of occupied energy levels- more levels the higher the reactivity
