Displacement Reaction
more reactive element replaces a less reactive
Thermite Reactions (word)
Iron(III) oxide + aluminium → iron + aluminium oxide
Thermite Reactions (symbol)
Fe2O3(s) + 2Al(s) → 2Fe(l) + Al2O3(s)
Oxidising Agent
Oxidises another substance - reduced in a chemical reaction
Reducing Agent
reduces another substance - oxidised in a chemical reaction
Oxidation
Loss of electrons
Reduction
Gain of electrons
Redox Reaction
- symbol equation
- Write out the ions
- remove spectator ion (ion not changed)
- half equation ( how many electrons added/lost) (reduced/oxidised)
Preventing Rust
painting, oil/grease, galvanising (zinc protect iron)
best condition for rust
H2O , O2
Water, oxygen
rust oxidation reaction
4Fe + 3O2 + xH2O –> 2Fe2O3 ° xH2O
galvanising - oxidation of zinc
2Zn + O2 –> 2ZnO
