Oxidation And Reduction Flashcards
When will displacement reactions only happen?
If metal involved at the start= m⬆️ reactive
What does a more reactive metal displace?
➖ reactive metal from metal salt
What does a metal atoms lose when oxidised?
Electron= oxidised
Copper sulphate + iron?
Iron sulphate+ copper
What happens when a metal ion gains an electron?
Been Reduced
What happens in a displacement reaction?
1 metal is oxidised, the other= reduced
What is group 7 in Ptable?
The halogens
What are some examples of halogens?
F, Cl, Br, I
What can a more reactive halogen displace?
Displaces ➖ reactive halogen from halide salt
Cl+ 2Na Br-> 2NaCl + Br2
What is the experiment for Oxidation and reduction?
Put iron nail in copper sulphate solution, after while-> nail=orange, liquid=brown
What’s the equation of the iron nail and copper sulphate?
Fe+ Cuso4 -> Cu+ FeSO4
Why do we write half equation?
Shows what happens to dif metals
What’s the half equation for copper sulphate and iron in copper?
Cu^2+ (aq) + 2e^- -> Cu (s)
Copper ions=reduced
What’s the half equation for iron in copper sulphate+iron?
Fe (s) + 2e^- -> Fe^2+ (aq)
What’s an example that a m⬆️ reactive halogen displaces - reactive halogen from halide salt?
Aqueous solutions of halogens-> added to potassium halide solutions
