Inorganic Chemistry (Pg 35-48)

QuestionAnswer
Name four properties of alkali metals Reactive, soft, low density, low melting point
As you go down group 1, the metals become ________ reactive. Their melting and boiling points ____________. More, decrease
Why does the reactivity of Group 1 metals increase as you go down the group? Atoms get larger, meaning outer shell electrons are further away from the positive nucleus. This means the electrostatic attraction between the two decreases, so the outer shell electrons are lost more easily, making the element more reactive
Alkali metal + water = _____________ + ______________ Metal hydroxide + hydrogen
What colour is sodium chloride? White
Chlorine is a poisonous, _________ gas Green
Bromine is a poisonous, ____________ liquid, which gives off an ________ vapour at room temperature Red-brown, orange
Iodine is a __________ crystalline solid, which gives off a _____________ when heated Dark grey, purple
What happens when you add chlorine water to potassium bromide solution? Orange solution formed
What happens when you add chlorine water to potassium iodide solution? Brown solution formed
What happens when you add bromine water to potassium iodide solution? Brown solution formed
What happens when you add bromine water to potassium chloride solution? No reaction
What does thermal decomposition mean? To break something down using heat
What colour change occurs when copper carbonate has been thermally decomposed? Green to black
What colour flame does magnesium give when burned in oxygen? White
If you heat a metal carbonate, it will produce a _______________ and ______________. Metal oxide, carbon dioxide
What are 3 examples of greenhouse gases? Water vapour, methane, carbon dioxide
Acid + metal = ________ + __________ Salt + hydrogen
Metal + water = __________ +____________ Metal hydroxide + hydrogen
What is the word equation for the rusting of iron? Iron + oxygen + water = hydrated iron(III) oxide (rust)
How are metals which are LESS reactive that carbon extracted from ores? Heating the ore with carbon monoxide (a reduction reaction)
How are metals which are MORE reactive than carbon extracted from ores? Electrolysis (using electricity to separate the metal from other elements)
Why is using a pH probe more realisable than universal indicator? Colour is subjective, probe is more accurate

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
