compounds
formed when metals and non metals consist of ions
1 of 33
limestone
composed of the compound calcium carbonate
2 of 33
what can calcium carbonate be decomposed by?
thermal decomposition
3 of 33
what does calcium oxide react with
water
4 of 33
what reacts with carbon dioxide to produce calcium carbonate
calcium hydroxide
5 of 33
phytomining
using plants, absorb metal compounds when the grow. burned to produce ash
6 of 33
bioleaching
using bacteria, separating the metal from its ore. dis, very slow
7 of 33
electrolysis
positive ions move towards negative.
8 of 33
crude oil
mixture of large compounds
9 of 33
thermal decomposition
breaking down by heating
10 of 33
ore
rock containing a metal compound that can be extracted the metal
11 of 33
reduction
reaction takes place as carbon removes the oxygen from the oxide to produce the metal
12 of 33
why steel is better than pure iron
easily shaped, high-carbon steels and resist corrosion
13 of 33
what do aluminium and titanium both have
resist corrosion, low density
14 of 33
3 properties of alloys
good conductors, keep their shape, buildings
15 of 33
how does distillation
done by steps by heating the mixture to different temperatures
16 of 33
how does fractional distillation
done by continuously by vaporising the mixture and condensing the fractions at diferent
17 of 33
incomplete combustion that causes global dimming
carbon monoxide
18 of 33
what do burning hydrocarbons produce
co2 and water
19 of 33
2 ways hydrocarbon can be broken down
heating a mixure of hydrocarbon vapours & steam to a very high temp // passing hydrocarbon vapours over a hot catalyst
20 of 33
alkenes have a ______ bond. React with
double / bromine water turning it orange > colourless
21 of 33
polymers
large molecules made when monomers join together
22 of 33
what is a shape memory polymer
uses temperature of the body to make the thread tighten and close the wound
23 of 33
2 ways ethanol can be made
fermenting sugar using enzymes in yeast // made by hydration of ethene with steam in presence of catalyst
24 of 33
how can vegetable oils be extracted
distillation // by seeds or nuts
25 of 33
how can vegetable oils be hardened
reacting with hydrogen with a nickel catalyst at 60'c
26 of 33
what do emulsifiers stop
oil and water from separating layers
27 of 33
why do tectonic plates move
because convection currents in the mantle that are caused by radioactive decay
28 of 33
why was wegeners idea not accepted
because he could explain why continents move
29 of 33
gases the earth had in its past
co2, nitrogen, methane, ammonia
30 of 33
what increased oxygen in atmosphere
plants increased, decreasing co2
31 of 33
what was the miller-urey experiment
they found that amino acids, building blocks for proteins had been used
32 of 33
2 processes carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere & remove
plants, fossil fuels // water, ocean
