Chemical Prperties of Metals Most metals are chemically reactive‚ reacting with oxygen in the air to form oxides over changing timescales (for example iron rusts over years and potassium burns in seconds). The alkali metals react quickest followed by the alkaline earth metals‚ found in the leftmost two groups of the periodic table. Examples: 4Na + O2 → 2Na2O (sodium oxide) 2Ca + O2 → 2CaO (calcium oxide) 4Al + 3O2 → 2Al2O3 (aluminium oxide) The transition metals take much longer to

Morragh Mine 1. Identify the hazards in the case‚ which can be environmental‚ situational‚ human or ergonomic. Environmental Hazards Mining is a dangerous occupation‚ and many of these dangers are associated with the environment in which the miners worked.

LET’S START WITH COPPER CHEMISTRY REPORT 2012 INTRODUCTION: The law of conservation of mass means that the atoms of an object cannot be created or destroyed‚ but can be moved around and be changed into different particles. This law says that when a chemical reaction makes two different atoms into a new product‚ the mass will be the same. Knowing this the mass of the copper should be the same at the beginning and at the end of the experiment. In this investigation we will see
