Reactivity of Metals

Question 1

reactivity series

Answer 1

Please Stop Calling Me A Careless Zebra Instead Try Learning How Copper Saves Gold Platinum
Potassium Sodium Calcium Magnesium Aluminium (Carbon) Zinc Iron Tin Lead (Hydrogen) Copper Silver Gold Platinum

(most to least)

Question 2

reactions of metals with water, steam, dilute HCl (aq)

Answer 2

read the notes

Question 3

reduction of metal oxides with reducing agent (Carbon & Hydrogen)

Answer 3

notes.

more reactive the metal –> more stable the metal oxide –> more difficult to reduce the metal oxide to its metal

Question 4

displacement reactions of metals

Answer 4

more reactive metal displaces less reactive metal from its compound
(more reactive –> greater tendency to lose electrons –> strong reducing agent)

Question 5

reactions between metal & oxide of another metal

Answer 5

more reactive –> form positive ions / compounds more readily –> reduces oxide of less reactive metal

Question 6

action of heat on metal carbonates

Answer 6
