Describe the conditions under which iron rustsoxygen onlywater and carbon dioxideoxygen and watercarbon dioxide onlyQuestion 3 of 23 Loading... 4. Explain why bromine is less reactive than chlorineBoth chlorine and bromine react by their nucleus attracting an electron to fill their outer shell. The outer shell of bromine is closer to the nucleus, so the attraction is stronger, making it less reactive.Both chlorine and bromine react by their nucleus attracting an electron to fill their outer shell. The outer shell of bromine is further from the nucleus, so the attraction is weaker, making it less reactive.Both chlorine and bromine react by their nucleus attracting an electron to fill their outer shell.

How many electrons in the outer shell of group 1 elements?3201Question 5 of 23 Loading... 6. 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 most reactive. Lithium would not burn at all showing it is least reactivePotassium would oxidise the most quickly, showing it is most reactive. Lithium would oxidise the slowest, showing it is least reactive.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 least reactive. Lithium would not burn at all showing it is most reactiveQuestion 6 of 23 Loading... 7.

An experiment investigates which of metals X and Z is more reactive. The result is X + ZSO₄ → XSO₄ + Z. Which metal is more reactive?XSO₄ZSO₄XZQuestion 8 of 23 Loading... 9. Which group of atoms has a full outer shell?Group 0, the noble gasesGroup 7, the halogensGroup 2, alkaline earth metalsGroup 1, the alkali metalsQuestion 9 of 23 Loading... 10. Which is more reactive: zinc, iron, lead or coppercopperleadironzincQuestion 10 of 23 Loading... 11. What is sacrificial protection?Sacrificial protection is when a more reactive metal is connected to a less reactive metal. Only the less reactive metal corrodes, so protecting the more reactive metalSacrificial protection is when a more reactive metal is close to a less reactive metal. Only the less reactive metal corrodes, so protecting the more reactive metalSacrificial protection is when a more reactive metal is connected to a less reactive metal. Only the more reactive metal corrodes, so protecting the less reactive metalSacrificial protection is when a more reactive metal is close to a less reactive metal. Only the more reactive metal corrodes, so protecting the less reactive metalQuestion 11 of 23 Loading... 12. Write the chemical equation for the reaction betweem sodium and water2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + 2H₂Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂2Na + H₂O → Na₂OH + H₂Question 12 of 23 Loading... 13. Where are metals found on the periodic table?Only in the left hand columnAt the top rightOn the left, reaching across the middleOnly on the bottom rowQuestion 13 of 23 Loading... 14. On the Periodic table what is the meaning of the word Group?A Group is a collection of similar elementsA Group is a horizontal row of elementsA Group is collection of elements with the same number of electron shellsA Group is a vertical column of similar elementsQuestion 14 of 23 Loading... 15. Explain, by referring to the electronic configurations, why lithium is less reactive than sodium.Sodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and lithium has 2,8,8,1. The outer electron in lithium is more attracted to the nucleus than in sodium because it is further away. So sodium is more reactive than lithiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and lithium has 2,1. The outer electron lost from sodium is closer to the nucleus therefore the electron is more attracted by the nucleus. So sodium is more reactive than lithiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and lithium has 2,8,8,1. The outer electron in lithium is less attracted to the nucleus than in sodium because it is further away. So lithium is more reactive than sodiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and lithium has 2,1. The outer electron lost from sodium is further from the nucleus therefore the electron is less attracted by the nucleus. So sodium is more reactive than lithiumQuestion 15 of 23 Loading... 16. If an element doesn't conducts electricity, is it a metal or a non-metal?Depends on conditionsEither metal or non-metalNon-MetalMetalQuestion 16 of 23 Loading... 17. Why would there be no reaction when iodine was added to sodium bromide solution?Sodium is more reactive than iodineIodine is less reactive than bromineSodium is less reactive than iodineIodine is more reactive than bromineQuestion 17 of 23 Loading... 18. In the test of a gas, a glowing splint relights. What is the gas?ChlorineOxygenCarbon dioxideHydrogenQuestion 18 of 23 Loading... 19. Write the word equation to represent the reaction between hydrochloric acid and calciumhydrochloric acid + calcium → calcium chloride + waterhydrochloric acid + calcium → calcium hydrochloridehydrochloric acid + calcium → calcium hydrochloride + waterhydrochloric acid + calcium → calcium chloride + hydrogenQuestion 19 of 23 Loading... 20. 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 electron shellssame number of electrons in the outer shellSame number of electrons in the inner shellSame electronic configurationQuestion 20 of 23 Loading... 21. 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 electrons in their outer shellElements 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 the same number of protonsElements in the same group of the periodic table have different numbers of electrons in their outer shellQuestion 21 of 23 Loading... 22. State the meaning of the term oxidising agentA substance that gives electrons or removes oxygen (it is itself reduced)A substance that gives electrons or removes oxygen (it is itself oxidised)A substance that gives oxygen or removes electrons (it is itself oxidised)A substance that gives oxygen or removes electrons (it is itself reduced)Question 22 of 23 Loading... 23. 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?More bubbles will appear faster in the test tube with the more reactive metalThe test tube with the more reactive metal will turn cloudy fasterFewer bubbles appear in the test tube with the more reactive metalThe metal that disappears fastest is the less reactive metalQuestion 23 of 23 Loading...
