Chem Unit 2

Question 1

What are the 5 things that show a chemical change

What does a triangle mean on top of an arrow

Answer 2

Heat

What does an X with an arrow pointing down mean

Answer 3

Precipitate formed

Question 4

What does a x with a arrow up mean

Answer 4

Gas released

Question 5

What are catalysts

Answer 5

The symbols above an arrow, they have indirect actions like making a reaction go faster

Question 6

How should you double check your balancing

Answer 6

Mass reactants = Mass products

Question 7

What does a metal oxide and water make

Answer 7

A base (MetalOH)

Question 8

What does a non metal oxide with water make

Answer 8

Oxyacids

Question 9

What does the decomposition of a metal carbonate make

Answer 9

Metal oxide and Carbon dioxide

Question 10

What does the decomposition of metal chlorates make

Answer 10

Metal oxide and oxygen

Question 11

What reactions would you need to check the activity series

Answer 11

Single displacment

Question 12

What is a neutralization reaction

Answer 12

Acid and base makes a salt and water

Question 13

What is a precipitation reaction

Answer 13

Two aqueous make a precipitate and a aqueous

Question 14

What is complete combustion reaction made of

Answer 14

CH + O makes CO2 + H2O

Question 15

What makes incomplete combustion

Answer 15

CH + O2 makes either water, CO2, Carbon or CO

Question 16

What happens when two aqueous solutions react

Answer 16

Cations of one solution attract and bond to the anions of the second solution to produce a precipitate reaction

Question 17

Describe what a complete combustion would look like

Answer 17

Very bright, blue flame, lots of energy released

Question 18

What would a incomplete combustion look like

Answer 18

Dangerous, orange flame, weak amt of energy released

Question 19

Why is it necessary to “neutralize” solutions? Why not just dilute them with more water?

Answer 19

eliminate hydrogen ions get get rid of its acidity, diluting won’t eliminate it bc it’s still toxic.

Question 20

How are carbonates used in neutralization situations?

Answer 20

Carbonate is a base and will neutralize acid. Acid + Carbonate makes water, carbon dioxide and an ionic compound

Question 21

How do antacids neutralize stomach acids

Answer 21

They are bases that are safe to consume to neutralize the stomach acid. A weaker base is preferred to not irritate the stomach

Question 22

How does neutralization help in baking

Answer 22

Leaveing products produced CO2 that is trapped in dough, to expand. Things like baking soda expands when mixed with an acid.

Question 23

What factors are taken into consideration when selecting reactants for a neutralization process?

Answer 23

Safety, reactant cost and chemical properties (if it will work they way it should)

Question 24

mining vs metallurgy

Answer 24

Mining is drilling deep into earth to reach ore. Metallurgy is separate and refine metals to process them into something useful

Question 25

How does one smelt

Answer 25

Heat it’s raw form with other chemicals, producing into a liquid, sinking to the bottom of the smelter and is separated.

Question 26

What are the main environmental concerns within the mining industry?

Answer 26

NaCN is used to extract gold, but it destroys wildlife because of its acidic oxide emissions when smelting

Question 27

What is remediation

Answer 27

To treat contaminated water to make it safe for use again

Question 28

What are the 4 remediation strategies to consider for contaminated soil?

Answer 28

1. Restrict land use 2. Cover contaminated soil 3. Excavate the entire site and replace it with clean soil 4. Treat the soil off site then return it

Question 29

What is physical remediation

Answer 29

Flushing out the soil to remove toxins

Question 30

What is chemical remediation

Answer 30

Using chemicals to convert it into its safe form

Question 31

What is bioremediation

Answer 31

Using organisms to treat affected area

Question 32

What is green chemistry

Answer 32

Minimal environmental impact with manufacturing processes with chemicals

Question 33

What does CO2 do in real world situations

Answer 33

Acidicfys water to make carbonic acid, just to decompose immediately

Question 34

What does SO2, SO3 and H2SO4 do in real world situations

Answer 34

Acid precipitation, SO2 is produced from burning fossil fuels and turns into SO3 when released in the air. It combines with humid environment to create acid rain.

Question 35

What does NO do in real world situations

Answer 35

Released from atmosphere to car exhaust due to heat making nitrogen and oxygen merge. When released into the air, it turns into NO2, then turns into nitrous acid when humid atmosphere combines with it.

Question 36

What is done to prevent NO being released from the exhaust

Answer 36

A coat of platinum, palladium or rhodium makes NO decompose into nitrogen gas and oxygen gas

Question 37
