Q

What do pure metals not always have?

A

the properties needed

38
Q

What are alloys?

A

adding other elements to the metal

39
Q

Describe adding alloys?

A

new atoms will distort the layers of metal atoms making it more difficult for them to slide over each other

40
Q

How are steels made?

A

adding small amounts of carbon and sometimes other metals to iron

41
Q

What are the three types of steeel?

A

low carbon steel, high carbon steel and stainless steel

42
Q

Properties and use of low carbon steel?

A

easily shaped, car bodies

43
Q

Properties and use of high carbon steel?

A
  • very strong
  • inflexible
  • hard
  • bridges
44
Q

Properties and uses of stainless steal?

A

corrosion- resistant, hard

cutlery

45
Q

What does the rate of chemical reaction depend on?

A
  • collision frequency of reacting particles. The more collisions there are the faster the reaction
  • energy transferred during a collision
46
Q

What is activation energy?

A

minimum amount of energy that particles need to react

47
Q

Describe surface area rate practical?

A
  • set up conical flask with dilute HCL, calcium carbonate marble chips with a syringe from the top
  • measure volume of gas produced with syringe
  • repeat with more mashed up marble chips
48
Q

What is general formula?

A
  • algebraic formula that can describe any member of a family of compounds

Q

What is an empirical formula?

A

simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each eleemnt in a compound

CH2

50
Q

WHat is molecular formula?

A

the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule

51
Q

What is displayed formula?

A

shows how atoms are arranged and the bonds between them

52
Q

What is structural formula?

A

shows arrangement of atoms carbon by carbon with attached hydrogens and functioanal group

53
Q

What is a homolgous series?

A

54
Q

What is a functional group?

A

a group of atoms that determine how a compound typically reacts

55
Q

What are isomers?

56
Q

what do fuels release energy in?

A

combustion reactions

Q

Where does the nitrogen oxides come from?

A

created when the temperature is high enough for nitrogen to react with oxygne

65
Q

WHat does nitrogen oxides include?

A

nitrogen monoxide and nitrogen dioxide

66
Q

What happens when nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide mix together with water vapour?

A

form dilute sulfuric acid and nitric acid

67
Q

What is the problem with acid rain?

A

causes lakes to become acidic and many plants and animals die as a result

68
Q

What are polymers?

A

substances of high average ram made by joining lots of small repeating units called monomers

69
Q

WHat type of bond do the monomers in addition polymers have?

A

double bond

70
Q

What is addition polymerisation?

A

when unsaturated monomer molecules open their carbon-carbon double bonds and join together to form polymer chains

71
Q

WHat is needed for addition polymerisation?

A

pressure and catalyst

72
Q

What does ethene become in addition polymerisation?

A

poly(ethene)

73
Q

What are most polymers?

A

inert - becuase the carbon to carbon bonds in polymer chain are very strong and arnt easily broken

74
Q

What is problem with polymers?

A

dont biodegrade easily and release toxic gases when burned so have to be reused

75
Q

What reaction can you do to make insoluble salts?

A

precipitation reactions

76
Q

What is the precipitation reaction?

A

using two soluble salts and reacting together to get an insoluble one

77
Q

Lead sulfate word equation?

A

lead nitrate + magnesium sulfate = lead sulfate + magnesium nitrate

78
Q

Explain how to make lead sulfate?

A
  • add spatula lead nitrate and dissolve in water in test tube. shake
  • repeat with magnesium sulfate in different test tube
  • mix together in small beaker and stir until lead sulfate precipitates out
  • filter in chonical flask
  • swill beaker with deionised water to make sure you get all precipitate
  • scrape lead sulfate onto fresh filter paper and leave to dry in oven or desiccator
