26
Q

physical properties of group 1 metals

A
  • soft, gets softer down the group

- melting point is low and gets lower down the group

27
Q

explain how reactivity increases going down group 1 metals

A
  • going down the group ions get bigger
  • nucleus gets further away from outer shell electron
  • less attraction between nucleus and electron making it easier to use
  • weaker metallic bond
  • more reactive
28
Q

metallic bonding

A

electrostatic attraction between positive ions and a sea of delocalised electrons

29
Q

physical properties of metals

A
  • ions arranged in layers and can slide over each other so very malleable
  • can conduct electricity, electrons can move
30
Q

alloys

A

a mixture of 2 or more different metals or carbon

31
Q

when do elements become reduced in an equation

A
  • loss of oxygen
    or
  • gain of electrons
32
Q

when do elements become oxidised in an equation

A
  • gain of oxygen
    or
  • loss of electrons
33
Q

what situations make iron rust

A

iron + water + oxygen

34
Q

ways to prevent rusting

A
  • painting
  • oil
    galvinising
35
Q

what is electrolysis

A

a way to extract metals which are more reactive than carbon

36
Q

how does electrolysis work

A
  • use electricity to break up compound
    ions need to be able to move and in a liquid
  • electrode cathode forms metal atoms
  • electrode anode forms non-metal atoms
37
Q

what is the reactivity list

A

K, Na, Li, Ca, Mg, Al, Zn, Fe, Pb, Cu, Ag, Au, Pt

38
Q

when do we use carbon to extract metals

A

when carbon is more reactive so it can displace the metal

39
Q

solubility rules

A
  • group 1 metals
  • nitrate
  • chlorine
  • sulphate
40
Q

solvent

A

a liquid in which a solute is dissolved in a solution

41
Q

soluble

A

a substance that can be dissolved

42
Q

insoluble

A

a substance that cannot be dissolved

43
Q

saturated

A

a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved

44
Q

solute

A

the substance to be dissolved

45
Q

solution

A

a mixture of the solvent with a solute dissolved in it

46
Q

suspension

A

a solid present in a solution as it didnt dissolve

47
Q

test for carbon dioxide

A

bubble the gas through limewater

48
Q

test for hydrogen

A

squeaky pop

- a lit splint will be ignited when entinguished will make a squeaky pop noise
