The atoms in molecules are together by covalent bonds. Describe covalent bonding. Why do pure molecular substances not conduct electricity? Explain why simple molecular substances have low melting and boiling points. 5 a day revision C5 – Molecules in the air Boiling pointState at room temperature DensityElectrical conductivity -218  C gasvery lowdoes not

Describe ionic bonding. State two properties of ionic compounds. Zinc ions can be detected by adding carbonate ions (CO 3 2- ) to form the insoluble compound zinc carbonate (ZnCO 3 ). Work out the charge on the zinc ion and write a balanced ionic equation, including state symbols. Potassium chloride is an example of a salt found in the sea. Complete the table of results and give reasons for your answers. 5 a day revision C5 – Ionic compounds Some tests are carried out on a water sample. Use the information in the table to identify the three ions that are present. Test 1. A white precipitate formed when sodium hydroxide was added. It dissolved when excess sodium hydroxide was added. Test 2. Bubbles of gas were given off when nitric acid was added to the sample. When silver nitrate was added a cream precipitate

What is the name given to rocks that contain metal minerals. Diamond and graphite are both minerals formed from pure carbon. Explain why graphite can conduct electricity but diamond can’t. You can use a diagram to help explain your answer. Carbon dioxide has a simple molecular structure, diamond has a giant covalent structure. Describe the main differences between the two types of structure. Describe and explain 2 properties of diamond. Some metals can be extracted from their ores by heating their metal oxides with carbon. This is called a redox reaction. Describe the two processes that take place using zinc oxide as an example. 5 a day revision C5 – Giant molecules and

What is the difference between relative atomic mass and relative formula mass? An electric current is passed through molten potassium chloride. Write ionic equations to help explain what happens at each electrode and name the products that are formed. 5 a day revision C5 – Equations, masses and electrolysis The diagram shows electricity being passed through molten lead bromide. What will form at each electrode? Iron oxide can be heated with charcoal to extract the iron. In one reaction the iron oxide, Fe 2 O 3, reacts with carbon to produce iron and carbon dioxide. Write a balanced symbol equation for this reaction. Lead metal can be extracted from lead oxide (PbO) by heating it with carbon. 2PbO + C  2Pb + CO 2 What is the maximum mass of lead that can be extracted from 446g of lead
