Year 9 Chemistry Quiz: Reactivity of Metals

Instructions

Answer the following questions to the best of your ability. Each question requires a written response.


  1. What is meant by the term "reactivity" in relation to metals?

  2. Which metal is more reactive: magnesium or copper? Explain your reasoning.

  3. Describe the general trend in reactivity among alkali metals as you move down the group in the periodic table.

  4. What observation would you expect to see when sodium reacts with water?

  5. Explain why potassium is considered more reactive than sodium.

  6. Which of the following metals is least likely to react with water: iron, lead, sodium, or calcium?

  7. What factors influence the reactivity of metals? Provide at least two examples.

  8. Describe a reaction that occurs when metals react with acids. Use a specific metal in your example.

  9. When magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid, what products are formed?

  10. What is the significance of the reactivity series in predicting how metals will react?

  11. Which metal is often used as a coating for other metals to prevent rusting? Explain your choice.

  12. How does the reactivity of metals relate to their ability to displace other metals from solutions?

  13. Provide an example of a displacement reaction involving a metal. What are the reactants and the products in your example?

  14. In terms of reactivity, why are alkali metals kept under oil?

  15. Which metal would you expect to react vigorously with dilute acids: zinc, gold, platinum, or silver?

  16. How does the reaction of metals with oxygen generally occur? Describe the products formed.

  17. Why are some metals, like gold and platinum, considered unreactive?

  18. What happens to the reactivity of metals when they form ionic compounds?

  19. Explain what happens when a reactive metal is placed in a salt solution of a less reactive metal.

  20. Name one practical application or relevance of understanding metal reactivity in everyday life.
