Q

Test for water

A

Add the liquid to anhydrous copper (ii) sulfate
The white powder will turn blue if pure water is present
Copper (ii) sulfate formed

Q

Sacrificial protection of iron

A

Zinc is more reactive than iron

Even if the iron is scratched the iron is still protected because the zinc reacted and corrodes instead of the iron.

Q

Preventing steel and iron rusting

A

Can be prevented by preventing contact with water and oxygen

Can be done by orating in: grease, oil, paint, plastic, a less reactive metal

Q

Problems of coating to prevent rusting

A

Once the coating is scratched/washed away the iron is once again exposed to water and oxygen and will rust

Q

Rusting of iron

A

Iron+ water+ oxygen

Iron —> iron (iii) due to loss of electrons

Q

Speeding up rusting

A

By having electrolytes in the water

19
Q

More reactive the hydrogen metals

A

React with both: dilute hydrochloric acid and dilute sulfuric acid
Form a salt and hydrogen

20

23
Q

Iron+ HCl / H2SO4

A

Bubbles
Disappears
Pale green solution formed

24
Presence of carbon dioxide
Limewater turns milky
25
Carbon dioxide absorbs
infra red
26
Acid rain
Rain with a below 6 PH leaches vital vitamin out of the soil- kills trees Lowers the PH of lakes so that fish can't live in it Weathers building made of; limestone, marble, iron
27
Laboratory preparation of carbon dioxide
Metal carbonate + an acid = carbon dioxide | Calcium carbonate most often used
28
Laboratory preparation of oxygen
Hydrogen peroxide decomposes slowly and forms water and oxygen Decomposition sped up by adding the catalyst solid manganese dioxide
29
Finding oxygen using iron
Place wet iron fillings at the end of a burette Water rises up the burette Due to iron reacting with air Percentage of oxygen = ( volume of oxygen used/volume of air at start ) x 100
30
Finding oxygen - copper
Aparratus with 100cm^3 of air Heat copper at one end of the silica tube Pass air over the copper Keep heating fresh copper Stop heating when gas in the servings stops decreasing Final volume of air left should be 79cm^3 21cm^3 has reacted

44
Group 1
``` More reactive the further down you go Very reactive metals Stored under oil so they can't react with water/oxygen Alkali metals React with water form alkaline solutions ```
45
Group 1 characteristics
``` Good conductors Very soft Low melting/ boiling points Low densities Shiny surface (dull after reacting with oxygen) Burnt in air/oxygen Form white, solid oxides ```
46
Group 8/0
Noble gases Chemically unreactive Neither lose or gain electrons easily
