Reduction
the loss of oxygen from a substance and/or the gain of electrons
1 of 31
Oxidation
gain of oxygen by a substance and/or loss of electrons
2 of 31
An acid releases...
Hydrogen+ ions when dissolved in water
3 of 31
A base
a substance that can neutralise and acid
4 of 31
Neutralisation
a reaction between an acid and a base; it creates a salt and water
5 of 31
Weak acids are...
partially ionised
6 of 31
Strong acids are...
fully ionised
7 of 31
Electrolysis
the process where a current is used to separate a substance
8 of 31
The anode
the positively charged electrode
9 of 31
The cathode
the negatively charged electrode
10 of 31
Positive ions are attracted to...
the negative cathode
11 of 31
Negative ions are attracted to...
the postive anode
12 of 31
Electroplating
using electrolysis to cover an object with a metal
13 of 31
Alkali metals are...
elements in group 1
14 of 31
What happens when alkali metals react with water?
they forn an alkaline solution (hydroxide)
15 of 31
Properties of Group 1 metals
soft and have a low density (float on water)
16 of 31
Group 1 - Trend of Reactivity
it increases as you go down group 1
17 of 31
Why are alkali metals stored under oil?
as they react with oxygen and water
18 of 31
Why do alkali metals have similar properties?
they all have one electron on their outer shell
19 of 31
Halogens are..
elements in group 7 (17)
20 of 31
What colour is chlorine gas?
green
21 of 31
What colour is bromine liquid?
orange-brown
22 of 31
What colour is iodine solid?
grey-black with purple vapour
23 of 31
What happens when group 1 & 7 elements react?
salts are formed
24 of 31
Group 7 - Trend in Reactivity
it decreases as you go down group 7
25 of 31
Displacement Reaction
where a more reactive element kicks a less reactive element from a compound
26 of 31
Noble gases are...
group 0 elements
27 of 31
How many electrons are on noble gas outer shells?
8; they have a complete outer shell of electrons
28 of 31
Group 0 - Trend in Attractive Forces
they get stronger as you move down group 0
29 of 31
Oxygen test
