What does that tell us about the electron configuration of the atom?same number of electrons in the outer shellSame number of electrons in the inner shellsame number of electron shellsSame electronic configurationQuestion 4 of 23 Loading... 5. What is special about the elements in group 0?They are all diatomicThey have the same number of electronsThey are all coloured gasesThey are very unreactive (because they have full outer electron shells)Question 5 of 23 Loading... 6. 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?The test tube with the more reactive metal will turn cloudy fasterThe metal that disappears fastest is the less reactive metalFewer bubbles appear in the test tube with the more reactive metalMore bubbles will appear faster in the test tube with the more reactive metalQuestion 6 of 23 Loading... 7. Explain, by referring to the electronic configurations, why 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. 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 2,8,7 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.

Explain, by referring to the electronic configurations, why potassium is more reactive than sodium.Sodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and potassium has 2,1. The outer electron lost from potassium is further from the nucleus therefore the electron is less attracted by the nucleus. So potassium is more reactive than sodiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and potassium has 2,1. The outer electron lost from potassium is closer to the nucleus therefore the electron is more attracted by the nucleus. So potassium is more reactive than sodiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and potassium has 2,8,8,1. The outer electron lost from potassium is further from the nucleus therefore the electron is less attracted by the nucleus. So potassium is more reactive than sodiumSodium has the electronic configuration 2,8,1 and potassium has 2,8,8,1. The outer electron lost from potassium is closer to the nucleus therefore the electron is more attracted by the nucleus. So potassium is more reactive than sodiumQuestion 8 of 23 Loading... 9. 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 9 of 23 Loading... 10. If pieces of lithium, potassium and sodium were added to water, how could observations of the different reactions indicate the relative reactivity of those 3 metals?Lithium would bubble the most vigorously, showing it is most reactive. Potassium would give off a lilac flame, showing it is least reactive.Sodium would bubble the least vigorously, showing it is least reactive. Potassium would give off a orange flame, showing it is most reactive.Lithium would bubble the least vigorously, showing it is least reactive. Potassium would give off a lilac flame, showing it is most reactive.Sodium would bubble the least vigorously, showing it is least reactive. Lithium would give off a orange flame, showing it is most reactive.Question 10 of 23 Loading... 11. Is the production of iron from iron ore oxidation or reduction?ReductionOxidationOxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons.REDOXQuestion 11 of 23 Loading... 12. Write the word equation for the formation of rustiron + oxygen + water → hydrated iron (III) oxideiron + oxygen + water → hydrated iron (II) oxideiron + oxygen → hydrated iron (III) oxideiron + oxygen → hydrated iron (II) oxideQuestion 12 of 23 Loading... 13. On the Periodic table what is the meaning of the word Group?A Group is a horizontal row of elementsA Group is a collection of similar elementsA Group is collection of elements with the same number of electron shellsA Group is a vertical column of similar elementsQuestion 13 of 23 Loading... 14. Explain how galvanising prevents rustingZinc accepts excess electrons from the iron, preventing it from reactingZinc is more reactive than iron. Zinc reacts with water instead of ironThe zinc coating protects the iron, preventing it from exposure to oxygen and waterZinc is more reactive than iron. Zinc reacts with oxygen instead of ironQuestion 14 of 23 Loading... 15. Write the word equation to represent the reaction between sulfuric acid and magnesiumsulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfate + watersulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfide + hydrogensulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfate + hydrogensulfuric acid + magnesium → magnesium sulfide + waterQuestion 15 of 23 Loading... 16. Which is more reactive: lithium or rubidium?Depends on the temperatureRubidiumLithiumDepends on the pressureQuestion 16 of 23 Loading... 17. If an element conducts electricity, is it typically a metal or a non-metal?Non-metalDepends on conditionsMetalEitherQuestion 17 of 23 Loading... 18. Where are non-metals found on the periodic table?Only on the bottom rowAt the top right, plus hydrogenOnly in the left hand columnOn the left, reaching across the middleQuestion 18 of 23 Loading... 19. Why does chlorine react with hydrogen bromide?Chlorine is more reactive as so displaces the hydrogenChlorine is more reactive and so displaces the bromine.Hydrogen is more reactive and displaces the bromineBromine is more reactive so it is displacedQuestion 19 of 23 Loading... 20. Why do elements in the same group of the periodic table have similar chemical properties?Elements 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 the same number of electrons in their outer shellElements in the same group of the periodic table have different numbers of electrons in their outer shellQuestion 20 of 23 Loading... 21.
