    10 The reactivity series (Metals)
    Properties of metals
    1. high melting points.
    2. good conductors of electricity.
    3. good conductors of heat.
    4. high density.
    5. malleable. – can be hammer into shape
    6. ductile. - can be drawn into wire
    7. sonorous
    The reactivity series
    Potassium
    Most reactive Sodium
    (Tends to form compound) Calcium
    Magnesium
    Aluminium
    Zinc
    Iron
    Lead
    Copper
    Least reactive Silver
    (Tends to stay as pure metal) Gold
    Reaction with Extracted
    Reaction with water
    acid by
    Potassium Metal react
    violently with
    React with water to acids to form
    Sodium form metal hydroxide salts and
    and hydrogen hydrogen gas
    Calcium Electrolysis
    React slowly with
    water
    Magnesium
    React violently with Metal react with
    steam acid to form salts
    Aluminium and hydrogen gas
    React with steam to
    Zinc form metal oxide and
    hydrogen gas
    Iron
    Heated
    Lead
    with carbon
    Copper
    No reaction No reaction
    Metals reacting with oxygen
    • Burning metals will cause them to react with
    oxygen and form metal oxide

    • Example:
    𝑍𝑖𝑛𝑐+𝑐𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑢𝑙𝑓𝑎𝑡𝑒→𝑍𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑠𝑢𝑙𝑓𝑎𝑡𝑒+𝑐𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑒𝑟
    Displacement reaction
    • If a metal is more reactive, it will displace
    metal from its compounds in solution

    •
    Reason : because iron is more reactive than copper / copper is less reactive than iron

    Reason : because iron is more reactive than copper / copper is less reactive than iron

    Reason : because iron is more reactive than copper / copper is less reactive than iron

    Reason : because iron is more reactive than copper / copper is less reactive than iron
    Testing for hydrogen gas
    Test : Use a lighted splinter
    Result : A ‘pop’ sound is heard if hydrogen is
    present
    Testing for oxygen gas
    Test : Use a glowing splinter
    Result : Splinter relight
