Q

ionisation energy in the periodic table

A

General increase across a period. There is an increase in nuclear charge in the same energy level so there is little extra shielding and therefore a greater attraction between a nucleus and outer electrons

Q

ionisation energy between Group Five and six

A

Decrease between five and six. In group six electron is removed from an orbital containing a pair of Electrons. The repulsion between these electrons makes an electron easier to remove. in group five the electron is removed from a singly occupied orbital

Q

Group two metals reaction with water

A

React less vigorously and hydroxide and hydrogen are formed
eg. Calcium
Ca + 2H2O —>Ca(OH)2 + H2

21
Q

Calcium’s reaction with water

A

Calcium produces a steady stream of bubbles and the liquid goes cloudy as a white participate of calcium hydroxide forms

22
Q

Barium’s reaction with water

A

barium produces greater Efveresscence and the solution is clearer since barium hydroxide is more soluble

23
Q

Magnesiums reaction with water

A

Magnesium reacts with steam to produce the oxide and hydrogen

24
Q

Trends in reactivity

g2

A

Reactivity increases as you go down the group
this is because when the S block metals react they lose electrons to form positive ions.
Since ionisation energy decreases down a group, the energy needed to form positive ions decreases. This leads to lower activation energies and therefore faster reactions

25
Q

G1 more reactive than G2

A

Because Group One metals lose only one electron while group 2 will lose two electrons

26
Q

Reaction with acids

A

All group two metals react vigorously with hydrochloric acid to produce a colourless solution of metal chloride and bubbles of hydrogen Eg. Mg
Mg + 2HCL—> MgCl2 + H2
Reactivity increases down a group
Only magnesium can react with sulfuric acid because other members have been soluble sulphates
Group 1 metals are too reactive to be added directly to acids

27
Q

Group 2- Reaction with oxygen

A

Apart from magnesium, all group two metals tend to burn with a characteristic flame. All G2 metals burned to form solid white oxides
Eg. 2Mg +O2—> 2MgO

28
Q

groups 1- reaction with oxygen

A

Group One metals also form white solids and burn with a characteristic flame
Eg. 4Li + O2 —> 2Li2O

29
Q

Oxides and hydroxides - s block metal oxides

A

( metal oxides are basic) (non metal oxides are acidic)
All the s block metal oxides are strong bases and they neutralise acids to form a salt and water
Eg. MgO + 2HCl —> MgCl2 +H2O
Other group two hydroxides are not very solid balls so saturated solutions of these hydroxides are only weakly basic because the concentration of hydroxide ion is very low

30
Q

G1- oxides and hydroxides

A

G1 oxides And barium oxide react w water to form a soluble hydroxide
Eg. Na2O + H2O —> 2NaOH
HydroxideS are soluble so are alkalis

31
Q

test for cations

A

all S-block elements apart from magnesium can be identified by a flame testable to stop a clean metal wire or splint is moistened with hydrochloric acid dipped in the compound and held in a non-luminous Bunsen flame

32
Q

Flame tests

A

Li+- Red
Na+- orange yellow
K+- lilac
Mg2+- no colour
Ca2+- brick red
Sr2+- crimson
Ba2+- apple green

33
Q

Solubility in water

A

All Group One compounds are soluble but many group two compounds are not

34
Q

Trends for group two compounds - solubility

A
  • All nitrates are soluble
  • All carbonates are insoluble
  • The hydroxides become more soluble as you go down the group so magnesium hydroxide is insoluble whilst barium is soluble
    Mg2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) —> Mg(OH)2 (s)
  • The sulphates become less soluble as you go down the group
    Ba2+(Aq) + SO42- (aq)–> BaSO4 (s)
  • all pretcipirates ate white
35
Q

Thermal stability of hydroxide and carbonates- Group 2 hydroxides’

A

All group two hydroxides decompose on heating to the oxide and steam Eg.
Ca(OH)2(s) —> CaO (s) + H2O (g)
Thermal stability increases down a group so Hydroxides have to be heated more strongly before they will decompose

36
Q

Himal stability of hydroxide and carbonates - group two carbonates

A

all group two carbonates decompose on heating to the oxide and carbon dioxide Eg.
MgCO3(s) —-> MgO(s) + CO2(g)
Fairmont stability increases as you go down the group
Presence of CO2 turns limewater cloudy

37
Q

Chemistry of group seven halogens and halides

at room emp

A

Halogens produce salt called halides
At room temperature chlorine is a green gas, bromine a red brown liquid and iodine a grey solid

38
Q

Volatility down a group

A

Ask the number of Electrons increases with atomic number, there is an increase in the induced dipole - induced dipole intermolecular forces holding the diatomic molecule together. Therefore the melting and boiling temperatures increase as you go down the group.
A substance that forms vapours easily are called volatile. Since with the low boiling temperature has high volatility and volatility decreases down the group

39
Q

Trends in reactivity with group seven

A

The halogens react by gaining electrons to form negative halide ions. They gain electrons during reactions or halogens are reduced and they oxidise with other substances
As you go down the group’s outer electrons are shielded more and further from the nucleus so it’s harder to attract electrons and both reactivity and oxidising power decreases down the group

40
Q

Reaction with a metal and halogen to form a white metal halide

A

eg.
Sodium + cchlorine gas= white sodium chloride
2Na +Cl2–> 2NaCl

41
Q

Reaction with iron wool

A

Ironwall also bends directly in chlorine or bromine vapour to give iron (III) halide
2Fe +3Br2—> 2FeBr3
When it burns in iodine vapour it only produces iron (II) iodide since iodine is less reactive and it’s a weaker oxidising agent
Fe+ I2 —> FeI2

42
Q

Displacement reactions

A

A halogen in a higher position in the group will oxidise a halide ion from a lower in the group since oxidising powers decrease down a group
Eg. Cl2(aq) + 2Br- (aq) —> 2Cl- (aq) + Br2(aq)
0 -1 -1 0

43
Q

Task for hslide ions silver nitrate test

A

If you start from a solid it must be first dissolved in water
A few drops of nitric acid is added first to make sure that any other anions especially carbonates are removed, as they would also form precipitates

44
Q

Silver nitrate test observation

A

Cl- forms white precipitate
Br- forms cream
I- forms pale yellow
Eg. Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq) —-> AgCl(s)

45
Q

Aqueous ammonia to the precipitate

A

Sometimes it can be difficult to tell the difference between the precipitates so to distinguish between them aqueous ammonia is added to the precipitate

46
Q

Aqueous ammonia observation

A

AgCl- Precipitate dissolves in dilute ammonia
AgBr- Precipitate does not dissolve much in dilutes ammonia but dissolves in concentrated ammonia
AgI- Participate is insoluble in dilutes and concentrated ammonia

47
Q

Chlorine added to water

A

Chlorine is commonly added to water as a gaseous element and the equilibrium is established
Cl2 + H2O –> HCl + HOCl

48
Q

User of the chlorate ion

A

ClO- Kills bacteria and other microbes so adding chlorine to water makes it safe to drink or swim. Chlorination is used to prevent the outbreak of serious diseases like typhoid and cholera
- Highly toxic and can react with naturally occurring organic compounds found in water supply to form chlorinate hydrocarbons which can cause liver and kidney cancer
- “mass medication”

49
Q

Fluoride added to water

A

To reduce tooth decay by preventing cavities. Water fluoridation reduces cavities in children’s but its effectiveness in adults is less clear
- Although fluoridation can cause dental fluorosis leading to tooth discoloration there is no clear evidence of other adverse effects
- “ mass medication”
