Q

People discovered how to obtain iron from its ore at much later date than they discovered how to obtain copper from its ore.

A

Iron is more reactive than copper,people didn’t know have technology to have high enough temp.

Q

A metal reactivity series (does/does not) help you to predict if reaction are likely to occur.

17
Q

A (more/less) active metal will replace a (more/less) active metal from its compound.

18
Q

Reduction involves any process in which electrons are (gained/lost)

19
Q

(Oxidation/reduction) involves any process in which electrons are gained.

20
Q

Hydro Metallurgy involves the use of ______ to obtain metals from their ores,

21
Q

Obtaining a metal from its minerals requires the addition of ___ and a source of electron

22
Q

Copper resources are (evenly,unevenly) disturbed throughout the world.

23
Q

Lead (will/will not) replace potassium.

24
Q

Calcium (will,will not) replace silver in AgCl.

25
MgCl2 is (easier, harder) to separate into ions than ZnCl2
Harder
26
CuCl2 is (easier/harder) to separate into ions than NaCL
Easier
27
Using the activity series how do you determine if reaction will it not take place
A more reactive metal will replace a less reactive metal from its compound
28
Why were copper, gold and silver among the first metallic elements discovered.
They are both very un reactive so they were discovered in their free state.
29
Which portion of our planet is the major "supply house" for the production of goods manufactured goods?
Lithosphere
