Q

what has the nucleus got to do with ionisation energy?

77
Q

79
Q

show an example of a redox reaction with a halogen

A

Cl2 +2e- -> 2Cl-
chlorine is reduced

80

another species loses electrons to halogen atoms so the halogen has oxidised another species

81

89
Q

describe flourine and astatine

90
Q

what happens to trend of reactibity when you go down the group

gain an electron decreases and halogen becomes less reactive
- atomic radius increases

110
Q

describe halide test

A
  1. add aqueous silver nitrate AgNO3, to an aqueous solution of a halide
  2. the silver halide precipitates are different colours - silver chloride in white, silver bromide is cream-coloured and silver iodide is yellow
  3. add aqueous ammonia to test the solubility of the precipitate. This stage is very useful because the three precipitate colours can be difficult to tell apart
111
Q

what is the sequence of tests when asked to analyse an unknown inorganic compound

A
  1. carbonate
  2. sulfate
  3. halides
112
Q

describe why there is a specific order

A
  • carbonate test you add a dilute acid and are looking for effervescence from carbon dioxide gas, none of other tests produce bubbles with dilute acid so if no bubbles can proceed with the next test
  • sulfate test you are looking for a white precipitate, if you carry out a sulfate test on a carbonate you will alos get a white precipitate
  • halide test, silver carbonate and silver sulfate are both insoluble in water and will also form as precipitates in this test
113
Q

how would you perform a carbonate test when there is a mixture of ions

A
  • if you see bubbles, continue adding dilute nitric acid until the bubbling stops, all carbonate ions will then have been removed and there will be none left to react in the next tests
114
Q

how would you perform a sulfate test when there is a mixture of ions

A
  • to the solution left from the carbonate test, add an excess of Ba(NO3)2
  • filter the solution to remove barium sulfate
115
Q

how would you perform a halide test when there is a mixture of ions

A
  • to the solution left from the sulfate test add AgNO3
  • any carbonate or sulfate ions initially present have already been removed, therefore any precipitate formed must involve halide ions
  • add NH3 to confirm which halide you have
116
Q

describe the test for ammonium ion

A

NH4+ + OH- -> NH3 + H2O
1. aqueuous sodium hydroxide NaOH is added to a solution of an ammonium ion
2. ammonia gas is produced
3. mixture is warmed and ammonia gas is released
4. may smell ammonia, easy to test the gas with moist pH indicator paper, ammonia is alkaline so paper will turn blue

Q

what is the law of conservation of energy

A

fundamental rule in science that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed

122

124
Q

describe exothermic enthalpy change

the chemical system takes in heat energy from th eusrroundings
- any energy gain by the chemical system is balanced by the same energy loss by the surroundings
- enthalpy change is positive
