9 lead
10 copper
What are the the not reactive at all elements in the reactivity series list
11 silver
12 gold
Potassium reacts with oxygen what happens
It burns brightly to form a oxide when heated
When calcium and magnesium react with oxygen what happens
It forms an oxide
What happens when aluminium zinc iron tin lead and copper react with oxygen
Oxide is formed
What happens when silver and oxygen react with oxygen
Nothing
When potassium and sodium react with water what is formed
A hydroxide
When calcium and magnesium react with water what is formed
a hydroxide
When aluminium zinc iron and Tin react with water what is formed
They don’t react with water just steam to form a oxide
When lead copper silver and gold react with water what happens
No reaction with steam or water
When potassium sodium and calcium react with dilute acid what is formed
We don’t do that experiment cos it is is too dangerous
When magnesium aluminium zinc iron tin and lead react with dilute acid what happens
Hydrogen gas is formed
When copper silver and gold react with dilute acid what happens
Nothing
Magnesium plus oxygen makes what
Magnesium oxide
