| Write the balanced equation for sodium reacting with water including state symbols | 2Na(s) + H2O(aq) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g) |
| Which product determines the pH of the solution formed when sodium reacts with water. | NaOH(aq) it is alkaline (pH13-14) |
| What pH is the solution formed after sodium reacts with water? | pH 13-14 |
| Why does sodium melt into a ball when it reacts with water | The reaction is highly exothermic |
| Describe and explain the difference in reactivity between sodium and magnesium (4) | Na is more reactive, Mg contains stronger metallic bonds, due to the metal ions having a higher charge and being smaller and because there are more delocalised electrons |
| Why is the reaction of magnesium with water much slower than sodium | The metallic bonding in magensium is stronger causing the activation energy of the reaction to be high |
| Write a balanced equation for magensium reacting with steam, including state symbols | Mg(s) + H2O(g) → MgO(s) + H2(g) |
| Write a balanced equation for sodium reacting with oxygen, including state symbols | Na(s) + O2(g) → Na2O(s) |
| Write a balanced equation for magnesium reacting with oxygen, including state symbols | 2Mg(s) + O2(g) → 2MgO(s) |
| Write a balanced equation for aluminium reacting with oxygen, including state symbols | 4Al(s) + 3O2(g) → 2Al2O3(s) |
| Write a balanced equation for silicon reacting with oxygen, including state symbols | Si(s) + O2(g) → SiO2(s) |
| Write a balanced equation for phosphorus reacting with oxygen, including state symbols | 4P(s) + 5O2(g) → P4O10(s) |
| Write a balanced equation for sulfur reacting with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide, including state symbols | S(s) + O2(g) → SO2(g) |
| Write a balanced equation for sulfur reacting with oxygen to form sulfur trioxide, including state symbols | 2SO2(s) + O2(g) → 2SO3(g) |
| Describe the structure and bonding in sodium, magensium and aluminium oxide | giant ionic lattice |
| Describe and explain the difference in the mpt of sodium and magnesium oxide | mpt of MgO is higher because the metal ion is smaller with a higher charge resulting in greater electrostatic forces between oppositely charged ions |
| Describe and explain the difference in the mpt of magensium and aluminium oxide | MgO is higher because Al2O3 contains covalent character, due to the very small and highly charged metal ion which distorts the electron density of the O2- ion |
| Describe the structure and bonding in silicon dioxide | giant covalent structure |
| Explain why the mpt of silicon dioxide is very high | due to giant covalent structure, strong covalent bonds need to be broken which requires a lot of energy |
| Describe the structure and bonding of phosphorus and sulfur oxides | simple covalent molecules |
| Which has a higher mpt P4O10 or SO2. Explain your answer | P4O10, as it is a larger molecule resulting in stronger van der waals forces between molecules |
| Which period 3 oxides are basic? | sodium and magensium oxide |
| Write a balanced equation for sodium oxide reacting with water, including state symbols | Na2O(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) |
| Write a balanced equation for magnesium oxide reacting with water, including state symbols | MgO(s) + 2H2O(l) → Mg(OH)2(aq) |
| What is the pH og Mg(OH)2 | About 8-10 |
| Why does NaO dissolve to make an alkaline solution? | Na breaks up into its ions, the O2- ion takes an H+ from water forming 2 OH- ions |
| Why is the pH of sodium hydroxide higher than magnesium hydroxide? | MgO is only slightly soluble, due to a higher lattice enthalpy. The concentration of O2- ions in solution are low therefore the OH- concentration is low, making the solution only slightly alkaline |
| What is the pH of the solution when Al2O3 is mixed with water and why | 7, as it is insoluble due to a high lattice enthalpy |
| What is the pH of the solution when sulfur dioxide is mixed with water and why | 7, as it is insoluble due giant covalent structure which needs a large amount of energy to break |
