Electrolysis Electrolysis is the process by which ionic substances are broken down into simpler substances using electricity. During electrolysis‚ metals and gases may form at the electrodes. What is electrolysis? Ionic substances contain charged particles called ions. For example‚ lead bromide contains positively charged lead ions and negatively charged bromide ions. Electrolysis is the process by which ionic substances are decomposed (broken down) into simpler substances when an electric

replace Hydrogen because it is more reactive. Copper + Hydrochloric Acid: Copper will not displace Hydrogen because copper is more reactive. Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid: Magnesium will displace Hydrogen because it is more reactive and end up as Magnesium Chloride + Hydrogen. Sodium + Hydrochloric acid: Sodium will displace Hydrogen because it is more reactive and end up as Sodium Chloride + Hydrogen. Apparatus:

magnesium salt and hydrogen. For example: Mg + 2HCl Mg + H2SO4 MgCl2 + H2 MgSO4 + H2 I discovered from an A’ level text book (A-level Chemistry by Ramsden) that nitric acid doesn’t usually give hydrogen‚ but may do with magnesium if the acid is cold and dilute. The book didn’t say how dilute the acid had to be. Other products may include oxides of nitrogen. I know that some acids are weak and some are strong. A strong acid is one which ionises fully in solution to give hydrogen ions and‚ for example

compounds that contain‚ primarily‚ carbon and hydrogen. Whereas the organic compound can contain other elements‚ the bond between carbon and hydrogen are what makes a compound organic. The original organic chemistry was defined the study of compounds by living organisms. Inorganic chemistry is the chemistry that deals with the properties and behavior of inorganic compounds. Inorganic compounds are those that are not biological‚ and not containing any hydrogen and carbon bonds. We can state that inorganic

The IUPAC system of naming is different from the common system‚ because it uses a series of prefixes and suffixes to name a certain compound. This system is also highly favored because its way of naming compounds is not only easier to understand and unambiguous‚ but it is also usually shorter than the common way. The IUPAC system’s uses include naming binary compounds between a metal and nonmetal‚ naming binary compounds between two nonmetals‚ naming polyatomic ions‚ and naming acids and bases

tension of water‚ which is due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between adjacent water molecules. b. The ability to serve as a buffer‚ absorbing protons given off by acetic acid. c. The ability to orient water molecules so that their polarities neutralize the ions formed when the acid dissociates. d. The ability to form hydrogen bonds with the carbonyl and the hydroxyl groups of acetic acid. 3. The pH of a solution is equal to: a. b. c. d. e. the hydrogen ion concentration H+ log [H+] -log[H+] ln[H+]

fusion. Nuclear fusion is a reaction where matter is forced together and the nuclei are fused together. This is how the first start was born when hydrogen atoms were fussed together to create helium. After this many more starts and a lot more elements were created. Stars start there life as a cloud of gas called a nebula. Mainly consisting of hydrogen and helium. The gases will then be drawn to a centre point of gravity which will then create a protostar. And then the nuclear fusion in the core

D) anything that accepts a hydrogen ion 4) What best describes what happens when an acid such as HCl is mixed with water? B) The proton chemically bonded to the chlorine is transferred to a water molecule and forms a chloride ion and a hydronium ion. 5) According to the following reaction‚ which

Alkanes are hydrocarbons with a functional group C-C. The hydrogen atom is then replaced by a halogen (F‚ Cl‚ Br‚ I). Therefore‚ alkyl halides are compounds that have a halogen atom bonded to a saturated‚ sp3 hybridized carbon atom. These could be classified according to the number of alkyl groups attached to the
