A student adds a piece of calcium to some cold water in a beaker. The products of the reaction are calcium hydroxide and hydrogen. Some of the calcium hydroxide dissolves in the water and some does not.
Describe two observations that the student could make during the reaction.
Effervescence
Cloudy colour formed
Calcium gets smaller/disappears (ignore dissolves)
Calcium moves up and down
Give the formula calcium hydroxide
Ca(OH)2
A student adds a piece of calcium to some cold water in a beaker. The products of the reaction are calcium hydroxide and hydrogen. Some of the calcium hydroxide dissolves in the water and some does not
When the reaction is complete, a piece of litmus paper is added to the solution in the beaker. State the final colour of the litmus paper and what that indicates about the solution.
Final colour of litmus: blue
What this colour indicates: alkaline
