Chem - Day 14 - Activity Series Review

Front

What is the activity series in chemistry?

Back

The activity series is a list of metals arranged in order of decreasing reactivity. It helps predict whether a metal will displace another in a chemical reaction.

Front

How can you determine if a reaction will occur based on the activity series?

Back

If a more reactive metal is present than the metal in the compound, the reaction will occur. If the metal is less reactive, no reaction will take place.

Front

What happens when calcium (Ca) reacts with lead(II) nitrate (Pb(NO3)2)?

Back

The reaction occurs because calcium is more reactive than lead.

Front

Which metal is more reactive: magnesium (Mg) or calcium (Ca)?

Back

Magnesium is less reactive than calcium.

Front

What is the result of the reaction between lithium (Li) and sodium fluoride (NaF)?

Back

Lithium will replace sodium in the reaction because it is more reactive.

Front

Will bromine (Br2) react with potassium fluoride (KF)?

Back

No, bromine will not replace potassium because it is less reactive.

Front

What is the significance of the activity series in predicting chemical reactions?

Back

The activity series helps predict whether a single displacement reaction will occur based on the reactivity of the metals involved.

Front

What does it mean if a metal is said to be 'more reactive' than another?

Back

A more reactive metal can displace a less reactive metal from its compound in a chemical reaction.

Front

Can silver (Ag) displace calcium (Ca) in a reaction?

Back

No, silver cannot displace calcium because it is less reactive.

Front

What is the outcome of the reaction between bromine (Br2) and sodium fluoride (NaF)?

Back

No reaction will occur because bromine is less reactive than sodium.
