What is Calcium Hydroxide used for?
It can be used to neutralise acidic soil in fields.
20 of 39
Which elements properties are more simular to Magnesiums: Calcium/Iron?
Calcium - Because it is also a reactive metal.
21 of 39
Give a reson why Aluminum is an expensive metal.
Because the extraction process is expensive.

32 of 39
Describe the process of purefying Copper by electrolysis.
Electrons are pulled off Copper atoms at the anode. Causing them to go into the solution. The impurities are dropped at the anode as a sludge.
33 of 39
List 2 advantages of cooking with oil.
- Increse the energy we get from eating it. - We can cook food faster because it has a higher boiling point.
34 of 39
Why do some oils need to be distiled after they have been extracted?
Distiation refines oil and removes water, solvents and imourities.
35 of 39
Why might Polymers becaome more expensive in the future?
The Crude oil will eventually get used up. So polymers will get expensive.
36 of 39

37 of 39
Give 3 good reasons why it is good to recycle.
Reduces: - Global Dimming - Acid Rain - Climate Change
38 of 39
Expalin why Zinc can be extracted by reduction with Carbon but Magniesium can't.
Because metals that are higher than Carbon in the reactivity series have to be extracted using electrolysis. which is expensive.
