=================================================================

1. Magnesium and calcium are in group 2 of the periodic table. They are less reactive than
the metals in group 1. Calcium reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH) 2,
and hydrogen, H2.
Ca(s) + 2H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(s) + H2(g)
Describe what would be seen when a piece of calcium is dropped into a container of water.
(score 20)
2. Two elements in group 1 of the periodic table are lithium and sodium. Very small pieces
of lithium and sodium were reacted separately with water.
Describe the similarities and differences in what is seen and in the products of the
reactions. (score 20)
3. Sodium reacts with chlorine (which is toxic) to form sodium chloride.
Describe how the reaction can be carried out, explaining what happens when a sodium
atom reacts with a chlorine atom! (score 20)
4. Group 1 of the periodic table contains the alkali metals lithium, sodium and potassium.
The alkali metals show a pattern in their reactivity with water. This pattern is shown when
small pieces of lithium, sodium and potassium are added separately to water.
Describe the reactions and what would be seen and explain the pattern in reactivity! (score
20)
5. Name the most abundant non-metal in the earth’s crust? (score 20)
