the Reactivity of Metals Aim: To prove the arrangements of the metals (Na‚ Ca‚ Mg‚ Al‚ Zn‚ Fe‚ Sn‚ Pb‚ Cu) according to the reactivity series. Background Information: By using various experiment‚ the reactivity of the metals can be deduced by the observation of the reaction. Hypothesis: Metals with low ionisation energy will lose their their electron more easily providing a more vicious and obvious result‚ as compared to the metals with higher ionisation energy‚ as the metals with lower ionisation

’’? Describe what metal speciation is. How do the master variables of the environment relate to speciation? Why is speciation important in contaminant transport and in biological contexts? If you had to pick a third “master” variable‚ what would it be? Why is chemistry vital to understanding biological systems? Species refers to the form that a metal takes in the environment. This form can be a cation (ex: Fe2+) or anion form (ex: N3-)‚ or just a bonded form (ex: Fe2O3). Metal speciation‚ then‚ refers
