Term
Reaction of Sodium with Water
Definition
Vigorous reaction, resulting in a very alkaline solution. Na(s) + H2O(l) = NaOH(aq) + ½ H2
Term
Reaction of Sodium with Chlorine
Definition
Burn in Cl gas. Na(s)+ 1/2 Cl2(g) = NaCl (s)
Term
Bonding in Sodium Chloride
Definition
Giant lattice structure consisting of ionic bonds
Term
Reaction of Sodium Chloride with Water
Definition
Dissociates in water to produce a neutral solution
Term
Reaction of Magnesium with Water
Definition
Slowly effervesces to form a alkaline solution with a pH of around 10.
Mg(s)+ 2 H20(l) = Mg(OH)2 (aq) + H2
Term
Magnesium and Oxygen
Definition
Burns in oxygen with a very bright flame.
Mg(s) + 1/2 O2 = MgO (s)
Term
Bonding in Magnesium Oxide
Definition
Giant ionic structure
Term
Magnesium Oxide and Water
Definition
MgO(s) + H2O = Mg(OH)2 (aq)
produces solution with pH around 10.
Term
Magnesium and Chlorine
Definition
Burn in Cl gas.
Mg(s) + Cl2(g) = MgCl2 (s)
Term
Bonding in Magnesium Chloride
Definition
Giant Ionic compound but bonds show some covalent character.
Term
Magnesium Chloride and Water
Definition
Dissociates in water to give a slightly acidic solution - aprox pH 6.5
Term
Aluminium and Oxygen
Definition
Reacts immediately at room temperature
2 Al(s) + 1 1/2 O2 (g) = Al2O3(s)
Term
Bonding in Aluminium Oxide
Definition
Giant ionic structure but bonds show some covalent character due to the large charge density of th Al3+ ion.
Term
Aluminium Oxide and Water
Definition
It is completely insoluble in Water
Term
Aluminium and Chlorine
Definition
Pass Cl gas over hot Al
2Al(s) + 3Cl2(g) = Al2Cl6
Term
Bonding in Aluminium Chloride
Definition
Mostly covalent bonds. 2 dative convalent bonds are formed from Cl to Al[image]
Term
Aluminium Chloride and Water
Definition
Dissociates in water to form the Al 3+ hexaaqua ion, then loses H+ to create [Al(H2O)5(OH)] 2+ and so gives off 1 h+, giving a pH as low as 3
Term
Silicon and Chlorine
Definition
on being heated with Cl gas
Si(s) + 2Cl2(g) = SiCl4(s)
Term
Bonding in Silicon Chloride
Definition
Simple Molecular structure with covalent bonding [image]
Term
Silicon Chloride and Water
Definition
Vigourous raction to form SiO2 (s) and HCl.
SiCl4(s) + 2H2O = SiO2 (s) + 4 HCl (aq)
Term
Reaction of Phosphorus and Chlorine
Definition
P4 (s) + 10Cl2 (g) = 4 PCl5 (s)
Term
Bonding in Phosphorus Chloride
Definition
Simple molecular structure with covalent bonding.
Term
Reaction of Phosphorus Chloride and Water
Definition
PCl5(s)+4H20(l) =5 HCl (aq) + H3PO4(aq)
Vigorous effervescence. Acidic solution formed.
Term
Reaction of Sulphur and Oxygen
Definition
S8 (s) + 8O2 (g) = 8SO2(s)
Burns with a blue flame
Term
Bonding in Sulphur Dioxide and Sulphur Trioxide
Definition
Sulphur Dioxide- [image] Sulphur trioxide- [image]
Term
Reaction of Sulphur Dioxide and Sulphur Trioxide with Water
Definition
Sulphur Dioxide-
SO2(g) + H20 (l) = H2SO3 (aq)
Sulphur Trioxide
SO3(g) + H20 (l) = H2SO4 (aq)
Term
Reaction of Chlorine with Water
Definition
Cl2(g) + H20 (l) = 2HCl (aq) + 1/2 O2
