 Displacement reactions.
 Oxidation equations
Metals + acid = salt +
hydrogen (Eg calcium +
hydrochloric acid = calcium
chloride + hydrogen.)

Hydrochloric acid makes


chlorides
Sulphuric acid makes
sulphates
Nitric acid makes nitrates
Oxidation
Metal + oxygen + heat = metal oxide

Eg copper + oxygen + heat = copper


oxide.
Displacement reactions
reactive metal +less reactive metal oxide +heat =
reactive metal oxide + less reactive metal.

Eg magnesium + copper oxide +heat =


Magnesium oxide + copper

Properties of Metals
 Metals are solids mainly,
 They are malleable (can be bent),
 They are shiny,
 They are ductile,
 They are durable,
 They conduct electricity,
 And they can be hammered into shape.
 Thermal conductor
