Lithium‚Sodium‚Potassium‚Rubidium‚Caesium and Francium are all part of group 1.They are metals that can be easily cut.After being cut‚it is shiny but it quickly tarnishes due to the fact that the metal reacts quickly with oxygen or water.The shiny surfaces of Sodium quickly tarnishes more quickly than Lithium and Potassium more tarnishes more quickly than Lithium.This shows that the reactivity increases as we move down the group.

PRACTICAL 2: Preparation of sodium hexanitrocobaltate (III) Date: 12 March 2014 INTRODUCTION Sodium hexanitrocobaltate (III) is a coordination complex which has the formula Na3[Co(NO2)6]. This compound is yellow in colour. It consists of a central Co3+ ion surrounded by six nitro ligands [1]. This compound is used as a qualitative test for potassium and ammonium ions (so long as certain other cations are not present) [1]. Potassium and ammonium are insoluble in water‚ while sodium is [1]. Hence‚ the

Research Report Introduction: The scientific principle that governs this kind of experiment was Combustion Reaction. It is a reaction that another element or compound reacts with oxygen to produce energy in the form of heat and light. It is a reaction that requires oxygen. My objective in doing this experiment is to determine the effect of the height of the candle on the length of its burning time. The existing problem is Suffocation. Research Problem: What is the effect of height of the candle on

the Rate of Reaction Between HCl and Sodium Thiosulfate Chemistry Lab report Aim: The aim of this experiment is to determine how concentrations of HCl acid affect the rate of reaction when reacted with Sodium Thiosulfate (Na2S2O3). This experiment would require measuring the mass of the reaction over a period of time to be able to determine the rate of the reaction. Safety Precautions: In this experiment‚ SO2 gas is produced from the reaction between Sodium Thiosulfate and HCl‚ and this can be dangerous

Heat and Temperature Heat is often described by the average individual as being the change in temperature from hot to cold. “Often the concepts of heat and temperature are thought to be the same‚ but they are not.” Heat and Temperature‚ para. 2) Perhaps the reasoning behind the incorrect reasoning is that humans associate the two together because when heat is applied to an object the temperature rises. The kinetic theory of matter better explains the underlying cause as to what takes place

I like this piece because this song can be used to encourage depressed people and those who are almost giving up in life. This musical acts as a comfort to them and gives them a reason to go on and to never give up. I

All compositions are composed of literary units called paragraphs. The purpose of a paragraph is to carefully explain and develop a given idea or topic that is a part of a paper’s thesis. Each unit is then segmented into a variety of sentences which are used to develop the main idea of the paragraph. Almost always‚ paragraphs need a central sentence called the topic sentence. This sentence tells the reader exactly what subject he or she will expect to find in the rest of the paragraph. The topic

Temperature Rising Global Warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth’s near-surface air‚ landmasses‚ and oceans its projected prolongation. Many believe that the Earth is currently facing warming in the ozone layer brought on by the rising levels of trapped gases known as the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution. Global warming is‚ in Laymen’s terms‚ altering the balance in energy of the earth (Reid 27). “The topic of climatic change has been in question
