An experiment investigates which of metals X and Z is more reactive. The result is X + ZSO₄ → X + ZSO₄. Which metal is more reactive?ZZSO₄XXSO₄Question 2 of 23 Loading... 3. Where are metals found on the periodic table?On the left, reaching across the middleOnly in the left hand columnAt the top rightOnly on the bottom rowQuestion 3 of 23 Loading... 4. 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 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 2,8,7 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.

What is galvanising?When iron is layered inside a less reactive metal to prevent that metal from corrodingWhen zinc is layered inside a less reactive metal to prevent that metal from corrodingWhen zinc is used to coat a less reactive metal to prevent that metal from corrodingWhen iron is used to coat a less reactive metal to prevent that metal from corrodingQuestion 5 of 23 Loading... 6. What is the chemical name of rust?anhydrous iron(I) oxideanhydrous iron(II) oxidehydrated iron(III) oxidehydrated iron(II) oxideQuestion 6 of 23 Loading... 7. On the Periodic Table what is the meaning of the word Period?A Period is a collection of similar elementsA Period is a vertical column of similar elementsA Period is a horizontal row of elementsA Period is a collection of elements with the same number of electrons in the outer shellQuestion 7 of 23 Loading... 8. What are the elements in group 0 called?Noble gasesLight gasesAlkali metalsHalogensQuestion 8 of 23 Loading... 9. Is the production of iron from iron ore oxidation or reduction?REDOXOxidationReductionOxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons.Question 9 of 23 Loading... 10. On the Periodic Table what is the meaning of the word Period? What does that tell us about the electron configuration of the atom?same number of electron shellsSame number of electrons in the inner shellSame electronic configurationsame number of electrons in the outer shellQuestion 10 of 23 Loading... 11. Which is more reactive: zinc, aluminium, iron or platinum?platinumironaluminiumzincQuestion 11 of 23 Loading... 12. 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?Sodium would bubble the least vigorously, showing it is least reactive. Potassium would give off a orange 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.Lithium would bubble the most vigorously, showing it is most reactive. Potassium would give off a lilac flame, showing it is least reactive.Lithium would bubble the least vigorously, showing it is least reactive. Potassium would give off a lilac flame, showing it is most reactive.Question 12 of 23 Loading... 13. State the colour change observed when bromine is added to an aqueous solution of potassium iodideorange to colourlessno changebrown to orangeColourless to brownQuestion 13 of 23 Loading... 14. 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 2,8,8,1. 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 sodiumSodium 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 2,1. 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 lithiumQuestion 14 of 23 Loading... 15. Which is more reactive: lithium or rubidium?Depends on the pressureLithiumDepends on the temperatureRubidiumQuestion 15 of 23 Loading... 16. 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 metalFewer bubbles appear in the test tube with the more reactive metalThe test tube with the more reactive metal will turn cloudy fasterThe metal that disappears fastest is the less reactive metalQuestion 16 of 23 Loading... 17. State 6 observations when potassium reacts with water1) fizzing occurs 2) potassium moves around 3) potassium melts 4) lilac flame is seen 5) potassium disappears 6) potassium floats1) fizzing occurs 2) potassium moves around 3) potassium melts 4) orange flame is seen 5) potassium disappears 6) potassium floats1) fizzing occurs 2) potassium moves around 3) potassium goes white 4) orange flame is seen 5) potassium disappears 6) potassium floats1) fizzing occurs 2) potassium moves around 3) potassium goes white 4) lilac flame is seen 5) potassium disappears 6) potassium floatsQuestion 17 of 23 Loading... 18.
