Metal Reactivity & Halogens quiz Loading... 1. 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 outer shellSame number of electron shellsSame electronic configurationSame number of electrons in the inner shellQuestion 1 of 23 Loading... 2. Describe the relative reactivities of the elements in Group 1Potassium is the most reactive, and it decreases up and down the group from there, e.g LiRbThe reactivity decreases as you go down the group, e.g. RbThe reactivity of all the group 1 elements is the sameThe reactivity increases as you go down the group, e.g. LiQuestion 2 of 23 Loading... 3. Where are non-metals found on the periodic table?Only on the bottom rowOn the left, reaching across the middleOnly in the left hand columnAt the top right, plus hydrogenQuestion 3 of 23 Loading... 4. What is special about the elements in group 0?They are all coloured gasesThey are very unreactive (because they have full outer electron shells)They have the same number of electronsThey are all diatomicQuestion 4 of 23 Loading... 5. Which is more reactive: silver, gold, copper or iron?coppergoldsilverironQuestion 5 of 23 Loading... 6. 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 2,8,8,1. 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 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 sodiumQuestion 6 of 23 Loading... 7. On the Periodic table what is the meaning of the word Group?A Group is collection of elements with the same number of electron shellsA Group is a vertical column of similar elementsA Group is a collection of similar elementsA Group is a horizontal row of elementsQuestion 7 of 23 Loading... 8. What are the elements in group 7 called?ChalcogensNoble gasesHalogensAlkali metalsQuestion 8 of 23 Loading... 9. How should group 1 elements be storedUnder oilUnder pressureAway from light (UV)Below 5 ⁰CQuestion 9 of 23 Loading... 10. Write the word equation to represent the reaction between sulfuric acid and magnesiumsulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfate + hydrogensulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfide + hydrogensulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfate + watersulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfide + waterQuestion 10 of 23 Loading... 11. If a substance loses oxygen in a reaction how is the process described?OxidationCombustionHydrolysisReductionQuestion 11 of 23 Loading... 12. Name the substance with the brown colour that forms whem chlorine is added to potassium iodide solutionBromine as it is less reactive than iodineChlorine as it is less reactive than iodineIodine as it is less reactive than chlorineBromine as it is less reactive than chlorineQuestion 12 of 23 Loading... 13. 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?Sodium 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 reactivePotassium 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.Question 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?Fewer bubbles appear in the test tube with the more reactive metalThe metal that disappears fastest is the less 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. An experiment investigates which of metals X and Z is more reactive. The result is X + ZSO₄ → XSO₄ + Z. Which metal is more reactive?XZSO₄ZXSO₄Question 15 of 23 Loading... 16. Which are described as acidic: metal oxides or non-metal oxides?NeitherMetal oxidesDepends on conditionsnon-metal oxidesQuestion 16 of 23 Loading... 17. How many electron shells do the elements in the third period have?1392Question 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 chlorine. 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 2,8,7 and chlorine has 2,7. An extra outer electron is gained more easily by chlorine.
