16
Q

Precision

A

Presicion is whether two measurements are close to one another

17
Q

Element

A

Is only made up of one type of atom

18
Q

Compound

A

Is made up of more than one type of atom chemically joined together

19
Q

Neutralisation

A

Making a acid or an alkali a neutral. To do neutralisation you either have to add a acid or an akali. Basically the opposite of what it actually is

20
Q

Hydrogen test

A

To test for hydrogen gas, perform the “squeaky pop” test by bringing a lit splint near the gas; if hydrogen is present, it will produce a distinctive popping sound.

21
Q

Oxygen

A

Use a glowing splint: Take a splint and ignite it until it glows red but is not flaming

22
Q

Carbon dioxide

A

Limewater Test: Bubble the gas through an aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide (limewater). If carbon dioxide is present, the limewater will turn milky or cloudy due to the formation of calcium carbonate.

23
Q

Metal + acid =

A

Salt + Hydrogen

24
Q

Observations when added to dilute hydrochloric acid(aluminium)

A

An aqueous product and a gaseous product.

25

26
Observations when added to dilute hydrochloric acid(Steel)
It has very little effervescing
27

It has no effervescing
28
Observations when added to dilute hydrochloric acid(Tin)
It has little effervescing
29
Observations when added to dilute hydrochloric acid(Magnesium)
