What is galvanising?When iron is used to coat a less reactive metal to prevent that metal from corrodingWhen zinc is layered inside a less reactive metal to prevent that metal from corrodingWhen zinc is used to coat a less reactive metal to prevent that metal from corrodingWhen iron is layered inside a less reactive metal to prevent that metal from corrodingQuestion 2 of 23 Loading... 3. On the Periodic Table what is the meaning of the word Period?A Period is a collection of similar elementsA Period is a horizontal row of elementsA Period is a vertical column of similar elementsA Period is a collection of elements with the same number of electrons in the outer shellQuestion 3 of 23 Loading... 4. Write the word equation to represent the reaction between sulfuric acid and magnesiumsulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfide + watersulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfate + hydrogensulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfide + hydrogensulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfate + waterQuestion 4 of 23 Loading... 5. If pieces of lithium, potassium and sodium were cut and exposed to air, how could observations of the different reactions indicate the relative reactivity of those 3 metals?Potassium would burn with a lilac flame showing it is least reactive. Lithium would not burn at all showing it is most reactivePotassium would oxidise the most quickly, showing it is most reactive. Lithium would oxidise the slowest, showing it is least reactive.Potassium would burn with a lilac flame showing it is most reactive. Lithium would not burn at all showing it is least reactiveSodium would oxidise the most quickly, showing it is most reactive. Lithium would oxidise the slowest, showing it is least reactive.Question 5 of 23 Loading... 6. Where are the transition metals on the Periodic Table?Left hand colunmIn the middleScattered across itTop left cornerQuestion 6 of 23 Loading... 7. Which is more reactive: gold, sodium, calcium or potassiumpotassiumsodiumcalciumgoldQuestion 7 of 23 Loading... 8. Explain, by referring to the electronic configurations, why potassium is more reactive than sodium.Sodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and potassium has 2,1. The outer electron lost from potassium is further from the nucleus therefore the electron is less attracted by the nucleus. So potassium is more reactive than sodiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and potassium has 2,1. The outer electron lost from potassium is closer to the nucleus therefore the electron is more attracted by the nucleus. So potassium is more reactive than sodiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and potassium has 2,8,8,1. The outer electron lost from potassium is further from the nucleus therefore the electron is less attracted by the nucleus. So potassium is more reactive than sodiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and potassium has 2,8,8,1. The outer electron lost from potassium is closer to the nucleus therefore the electron is more attracted by the nucleus. So potassium is more reactive than sodiumQuestion 8 of 23 Loading... 9.

Which metal is more reactive?XSO₄ZSO₄ZXQuestion 10 of 23 Loading... 11. On the Periodic table what is the meaning of the word Group? What does that tell us about the electron configuration of the atom?Same number of electrons in the inner shellSame number of electron shellssame number of electrons in the outer shellSame electronic configurationQuestion 11 of 23 Loading... 12. Put these 3 alkali metals in order of reactivity, starting with the most reactive: sodium, caesium, rubidiumcaesium, rubidium, sodiumrubidium, caesium, sodiumcaesium, sodium, rubidiumsodium, rubidium, caesiumQuestion 12 of 23 Loading... 13. Which group of atoms has a full outer shell?Group 1, the alkali metalsGroup 2, alkaline earth metalsGroup 0, the noble gasesGroup 7, the halogensQuestion 13 of 23 Loading... 14. If 2 similar test tubes contain acid, and a different metal sample is added to each, how might you tell which metal is more reactive?The metal that disappears fastest is the less reactive metalFewer bubbles appear in the test tube with the more reactive metalThe test tube with the more reactive metal will turn cloudy fasterMore bubbles will appear faster in the test tube with the more reactive metalQuestion 14 of 23 Loading... 15.

Why do elements in the same group of the periodic table have similar chemical properties?Elements in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of protonsElements in the same group of the periodic table are all the same type of element (metal, non-metal etc.)Elements in the same group of the periodic table have different numbers of electrons in their outer shellElements in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of electrons in their outer shellQuestion 16 of 23 Loading... 17. In the test of a gas, a lit splint gives a squeaky pop. What is the gas?ChlorineCarbon dioxideHydrogenOxygenQuestion 17 of 23 Loading... 18. Explain, by referring to the electronic configurations, why fluorine is more reactive than chlorineFluorine has the electronic configuration 2,7 and chlorine has 2,8,7. An extra outer electron is gained more easily by fluorine. This is because the outer shell is closer to the nucleus, so an extra electron is attracted more strongly. So fluorine is more reactive than chlorineFluorine has the electronic configuration 2,7 and chlorine has 2,8,7. An extra outer electron is gained more easily by chlorine.
