11, Following table shows the observations made when some metals were added to solutions of
‘compounds of other metals
Metal Solution Observation
Zine Copper sulphate Brown deposit on the Zine. The
solution gradually loses its blue
colour
Copper Zinc Sulphate No reaction
Magnesium Zine Sulphate Magnesium ribbon coated in dark
Zine Magnesium sulphate No reaction
(0) Use the information in the table to place the metals , Zinc, Copper and magnesium in order of
reactivity - Most reactive first @)
Most reactive
Least reactive.
(ii) Name the products formed when Zinc reacts with copper sulphate solution
and (2)
43. A pupil carried cut an experiment that involved adding excess Zinc powder to blue copper sulphate
solution. During the reaction the blue solution became colourless and some brown copper was formed
The above experiment was the repeated using copper powder and sitver Nitrate.
‘Write the word equation for the above two reactions
ee
(i) 8)
Use the results of the above two experiments to place copper, silver and Zinc in order of decreasing
activity
(i) ()14, (a) Here is a list of metals in order of decreasing reactivity. Q and R are unknown metals.
K>Q >Ca>Mg>Al>Zn>R> Fe>Cu
() Will Q React with cold water?
)
(ii) Wil R displace copper from copper sulphate solution?
)
(iil) Will R React with dil. Hydrehloric acid
(1)
(b) Three metals X, y and Z have the following reactions
Y will displace X from a solution of its salt.
Z.will displace both X and Y from solutions of their salts
Place the three metals in order starting with least reactive15. (a) The following metal are listed in order of reactivity (most reactive first)
Sodium > Magnesium > Zinc > Copper
Describe what each metal does when
(i) Reacts with water (1)
(i) Heated in air a)
(ii) Added to dilute hydrochloric acid “
(b) Complete the following equation
(i Iron + Zine Sulphate Solution > a
(i) Gold + Silver Nitrate Solution — ay17. (@ Following picture shows the reaction of different metals with acid
(a) Which test tube would contain Magnesium metal? (1)
(b) Which test tube contain Zine? Oy
(c) Identify the test tube containing copper ay
(d) Arrange the metals according to reactivity with acid (1)
(i) Magnesium reacts very slowly with cold water . predict how silver reacts with cold
water, giving reason for your answer @18. Using the reactivity series, find what metal displaces the other metal from its
solution put (X) ifthe metal do not displace from is metal solution 4)
