What is the equation for Sulfuric acid?
H2SO4
What is the order of reactivity of metals? (use an acronym to help you and add carbon and hydrogen for comparison)
Please Stop Cooking Me And Cook Zita Instead Li Had Coke So Good Please
–> Potassium Sodium Calcium Magnesium Aluminium Carbon Zinc Iron Lead Hydrogen Copper Silver Gold Platinum
What are metal displacement reactions?

What are the properties of metals?

What are the reactivity series?
A list arranged depending on how well a metal reacts
“A metal’s reactivity shows how it will behave in reactions.”
ok
Iron oxide + carbon —>
iron + carbon oxide
“Some metals can be extracted with carbon”
ok
metal + acid —>
salt + hydrogen
the hydrogen comes from the acid as all acids contain hydrogen
“Only metals ABOVE hydrogen in the reactivity series will react with acid and make a salt with hydrogen”
ok
“The metals BELOW hydrogen in the reactivity series do not react with acids”
ok
What happens to the reaction of the metals as you go down the series of reactivity?
It becomes less and less “exciting” because the metals react less.
What is the test for hydrogen?
If a lit splint is held to a test tube and a ‘sqeaky pop’ sound is heard, it means that there is hydrogen in the solution
