9
Q

Group 1 reactivity

A

More reactive further down group
Although they all have 1 electron on outer shell
Size of atom increase so outer ejection gets further away
Therefore outer electron less attracted to the nucleus

Q

Halogen reactivity trend

A

Decreases down the group because of increasing size of atoms
Needs to attract extra electron
Further away outer shell from nucleus the less attraction

22
Q

Hydrogen chloride + water

A

Hydrochloric acid

23
Q

Hydrochloric acid properties

A

Turns litmus red
Turns universal I red
Reacts w metal to form a metal chloride and hydrogen
W a metal carbonate to form a metal chloride, water and co2
With a metal hydroxide or oxide to form a metal chloride in solution and water

24
Q

Percentages of air

A

Nitrogen 78%
Oxygen 21%
Argon 0.9%
Carbon dioxide 0.04%

25
Q

Using copper

A 
Gas syringes
Silica tube
Copper
Pass air backwards and forwards
Need copper in excess
Calculate volume lost
26
Q

Using iron w oxygen

A

Iron filings
Burette end
Water will rise up from trough
Volume lost is equal to oxygen

27
Q

Using phosphorus and oxygen

A 
Phosphorus in water 
Same level inside and outside tube
Heat with iron rod
Reacting place bung on
Water levels will change
28
Q

How to prepare oxygen

A 
W hydrogen peroxide
Decomposes to form water and oxygen
Manganese 4 oxide as catalyst
Oxygen not soluble so not much is list
Collected and measured using gas syringe
29
Q

Oxygen and magnesium

A

Bright white flame

Forms white solid

30
Q

Oxygen and carbon

A

Yellow flame

Forms colourless gas

31
Q

Oxygen and sulfur

A

Blue flame

Forms colourless gas

32
Q

Magnesium oxide and water

A

Magnesium hydroxide

Mg(OH)2

33
Q

Carbon dioxide and water

A

Acidic oxide
Dissolves in water to form acidic solutions
H2CO3 carbonic acid
PH 5-6

34
Q

Sulfur dioxide and water

A 
Acidic oxide
Dissolves in water to form an acidic solution 
H2SO3
Sulfurous acid 
pH 3-4
35
Q

Oxides of metals are

A

Basics

Dissolve in water or don’t to form alkaline solutions

36
Q

Oxides of non metals

A

Often acidic

Dissolve in water to form acidic solutions
Some oxides are neutral- eg carbon monoxide

37
Q

Preparations of carbon dioxide

A

Metal carbonate+ acid
Eg calcium carbonate

By downward delivery as it is much denser than air

Thermal decomposition when heating metal carbonates

38
Q

Copper carbonate

A

Green to black

39
Q

Magnesium carbonate

A

No observable change

Stays white

40
Q

Calcium carbonate

A

Stays white

No observable change

41
Q

Zinc carbonate

A

White to yellow when hot

And white again when cold

42
Q

Sodium carbonate

A

No observable change
Stays white
Doesn’t compose in a Bunsen flame

43
Q

Uses of co2

A

Making carbonated drinks- pressure increased to increase solubility
In fizzy drinks

In fire extinguishers- co2 doesn’t support combustion
More dense than air so it sits on top of the burning fuel and prevent oxygen from getting to it

44
Q

Carbon dioxide and climate change

A

Contributing?
Absorbs infrared radiation
Fossil fuels

45
Q

Acid rain causes

A

Sulfur dioxide
Nitrogen

Causes a drop in ph lower than 6

46
Q

Acid rain effects

A

Leaving vital minerals from the soil causing death of trees
Lowering ph of rivers killing fish
Weather of buildings and structures made out of limestone, marble and iron
