Reactions With Metals Flashcards
Part of metal affected in reaction with air
Only outside layer
Metal and air product
Metal oxide
Metals and water produces
Alkali and hydrogen gas
How does the reaction change the higher up the reactivity series the metal for reactions with water
The larger the reactions - magnesium needed to be in water vapour for the reaction to take place
What metals react with acid
Only metals above hydrogen as hydrogen is in all acids and is being displaced in the reaction
Why does a metal react with an acid
It displaces hydrogen
The further up the reactivity series what changes with acid and metal reactions
The more strong more effervescence
Metal + acid ->
Salt + hydrogen (gas)
_ + _ -> salt + hydrogen
Metal + acid
Salt
Name of metal + part of acid name
Mg + 2HCl ->
MgCl2 + H2
How does reaction change when the metal is in powder form?? Why
Stronger reaction - larger surface area
Nitric acid salt name
Nitrate
Sulphuric acid salt name
Sulphate
Hydrochloride acid salt name
Chloride
