Paper 1 Chemistry Flashcards
Lithium in water
It fizzes
Sodium in water
Melts to form a ball and slowly burns to disappear
Potassium in water
Metal melts and floats. Lilac flame
Increase in reactivity in group 1 on the periodic table
. Atoms become larger
. Outer electron becomes further away from the nucleus
Group 1 and Group 7
Group 1 = Alkali Metals
Group 7 = Halogens + Non metal
Crude Oil
A mixture of Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons
Compound that contains hydrogen and carbon only
Carbon Monoxide facts
. Colourless gas
. Breathed in and can lead to death
Hydrogen for fuel in cars advantages and disadvantages
Advantages . Releases no CO2 emissions . Infinite source Disadvantage . Expensive . Hard to transport and store
Earths Early Atmosphere
. Little or no oxygen
. Large amount of CO2
Test for oxygen
Glowing Splint
Human Activities on the increase of C02
. Driving (CO2)
. Consuming electricity (CO2)
. Landfill Sites (CO2)
Evidence of Climate Change
. Sea level rise
. Extreme Weather
. Global Temperature
Volcano gas release
. Methane
. Nitrogen
Test for C02
Limewater test turns milky or cloudy if CO2 is present
