Describe the relative reactivities of the elements in Group 1The reactivity increases as you go down the group, e.g. LiPotassium 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 sameQuestion 5 of 23 Loading... 6. An experiment investigates which of metals X and Z is more reactive. The result is X + ZSO₄ → XSO₄ + Z. Which metal is more reactive?ZSO₄XXSO₄ZQuestion 6 of 23 Loading... 7. If an element doesn't conducts electricity, is it a metal or a non-metal?MetalEither metal or non-metalNon-MetalDepends on conditionsQuestion 7 of 23 Loading... 8. Predict what colour and state is astatine at room temperatureblack solidyellow liquidblack gasyellow solidQuestion 8 of 23 Loading... 9. Explain, by referring to the electronic configurations, why 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. 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 2,7 and chlorine has 2,8,7. An extra outer electron is gained more easily by fluorine.

What are the elements in group 0 called?Alkali metalsNoble gasesHalogensLight gasesQuestion 10 of 23 Loading... 11. Where are the transition metals on the Periodic Table?Top left cornerIn the middleLeft hand colunmScattered across itQuestion 11 of 23 Loading... 12. How many electrons in the outer shell of group 2 elements?3120Question 12 of 23 Loading... 13. Which is more reactive: sodium, zinc, magnesium or aluminium?zincaluminiummagnesiumsodiumQuestion 13 of 23 Loading... 14. 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 least reactive. Lithium would not burn at all showing it is most reactiveSodium 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 oxidise the most quickly, showing it is most reactive.

Describe the test for oxygen gasBubble the gas through limewater and see if it goes cloudyTurns moist litmus paper white (bleaches)Use a glowing splint and see if it relightsUse a lit splint to see if the gas popsQuestion 16 of 23 Loading... 17. 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 17 of 23 Loading... 18. Is the production of iron from iron ore oxidation or reduction?Oxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons.OxidationREDOXReductionQuestion 18 of 23 Loading... 19.

Describe the conditions under which iron rustswater and carbon dioxideoxygen and watercarbon dioxide onlyoxygen onlyQuestion 21 of 23 Loading... 22. 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 2,1. 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 2,1. 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 lithiumSodium 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 2,8,8,1. 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 sodiumQuestion 22 of 23 Loading... 23. 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 different numbers of electrons in their outer shellElements in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of protonsElements 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 electrons in their outer shellQuestion 23 of 23 Loading...
