What is the general equation when an acid is neutralised by a metal carbonate?
Acid + Metal Carbonate → Metal Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide
What word is used to describe ions that are present during the reaction but are unchanged by the reaction, and so are present in the same state on both sides of the equation?
Spectator ions
How would the following ionic equation be rewritten omitting the spectator ions?
H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) → Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + H2O(l)
H+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)
How would the following ionic equation be rewritten omitting the spectator ions?
2H+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) + Ca2+(aq) + CO32-(aq) → Ca2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
2H+(aq) + CO32-(aq) → H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Reactions can be represented using ionic equations.
A: H+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)
B: 2H2O(l) + O2(g) + 4e<span>-</span> → 4OH-(aq)
C: 2H+(aq) + CO32-(aq) → H2O(l) + CO2(g)
D: SO2(g) + H2O(l) → 2H+(aq) + SO32-(aq)
E: NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq) → NH3(g) + H2O(l)
Identify the two ionic equations that show the neutralisation of an acid.
A: H+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)
C: 2H+(aq) + CO32-(aq) → H2O(l) + CO2(g)
What is the purpose of a titration reaction?
This technique is commonly used in neutralisation reactions and to calculate an unknown concentration (of either the acid or alkali).
Which titration results should be used to calculate an average volume used?
Concordant results (within 0.2).
electrolysis
The process of breaking down of an ionic compound into its elements by the use of an electric current.
base
A compound which neutralises an acid to form a salt and water. Bases can be soluble or insoluble. Metal oxides and metal hydroxides are bases. Soluble bases form alkaline solutions
lattice
A lattice is a regular grid-like arrangement of ions in a solid ionic compound.
Precipitate
The insoluble solid formed in a solution during a chemical reaction.
solute
The material that dissolves in a solvent to form a solution.
solvent
The liquid in which the solute dissolves in to form a solution.
What do ions do in neutralisation reactions?
Change charges
What is the step by step titration calculation?
Step 1 Work out the moles
Step 2 Ratio
Step 3 Work out concentration
What are the 3 fossil fuels?
Gas, Oil, Coal
How is coal made?
From the remains of dead plants. The condition needs to be hot and swampy. A fossil is a dead plant or animal preserved in rock. So scientists call these fossil fuels.
How is crude oil formed?
When plankton that lived many years ago and sea plants died layers of mud and slit formed on top of them. Pressure and high temperature cause the remains to slowly change (anaerobic change). Oil and gas are obtained.
State things about fractional distillation.
- Crude oil is a mixture of different compounds called hydrocarbons
- Crude oil must be separated into different substances before we can use it
- These substances have similar boiling points and are called fractions.
What are the steps for crude oil to be slit into fractions?
- Crude oil is heated and begins to boil
- Gases rise up the column
- The column is hot at the bottom and cooler at the top
- Hydrocarbons condense at different temperatures depending on their boiling points
- Then tapped off at the different temperature to give fractions
What is viscosity mean?
Viscosity is a measure of a fluids resistance to flow. It describes how thick or sticky a liquid is - higher viscosity means the fluid flows more slowly, while lower viscosity means it flows more easily.
Why is the cracking process used?
Crude oil tends to have more long chain fractions than are in demand. To convert them into more useful short chain molecules a process called cracking is used.
What is an alkane made of hydrocarbons?
Compounds where the atoms are joined by single covalent bonds. Carbon must have 4 bonds. Hydrogen can only have one bond. Structural formula - CnH(2n+2). Contains mainly carbons and hydrogens.
The names for the number 1 - 8 in the homologous series and their memorable sentence.
