| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Why are alloys harder? | Their layers are harder to slide around, unlike metal elements. |
| What is the equation for neutralisation? | acid+base->salt+water |
| Name the three types of salt. | Nitrate, Sulphide, Chlorine |
| Give an example of a sedimentary rock | limestone, sandstone |
| How is igneous rock formed? | The magma enters the surface and cools down. |
| How is sedimentary rock formed? | weathering, erosion and deposition to the ocean layers. compacted and cemented. |
| what is sustainability? | a process that can go on forever. |
| What are bases? | Compounds that dissolve in water into alkali. |
| hydrochloric acid+ potassium hydroxide-> | potassium chloride+ water |
| How can you check neutralisation? | With pH paper or universal indicator. |
| metal carbonate+ acid-> | salt+carbon dioxide+ water |
| what is brass? | an alloy, its a mixture of copper and zinc, stronger, used in decoration that need heavy forces |
| how can you form copper sulphate? | extract copper from copper ores. react it with oxygen. copper oxide is formed. mix it with sulphuric acid. filter it. |
| how can you tell if a salt is chloride? | it uses hydrochloric acid. |
| stone is strong under... | compression (squashing forces) |
| stone isn't strong under... | tension (pulling forces) |
| what does porous mean? | it has holes that allow water to go into it. |
| list the properties of metamorphic rocks. | not porous. therefore, hard to cut. not resistant to chemical weathering when there is calcium carbonate. |
| list the properties of igneous rocks. | hard to cut, not porous, no calcium carbonate. |
| what is solder? | an alloy made of lead and tin. soft, malleable, low melting point, used to join metal pipes. |
