Do now! Can you stick the summary and word sheets in? Don’t forget we have a test on Friday (topics 9e and 9f)
Last lesson Extraction of metals from their ores related to the reactivity series
Ores Most metals are found naturally in rocks called ores. They are in compounds, chemically bonded to other elements iron ore
Native Some unreactive metals can be found as elements. They are called native metals.
Roasting Some unreactive metals can be extracted from a compound simply by heating. This is called roasting.
More reactive metals? Zinc, iron, tin, lead
Extracting metals with carbon Carbon is higher than some metals in the reactivity series. It can be used to extract medium reactive metals.
Extracting metals with carbon lead oxide + carbon lead + carbon dioxide 2PbO(s) + C(s) 2Pb(s) + CO2(g)
Extracting metals with carbon lead oxide + carbon lead + carbon dioxide 2PbO(s) + C(s) 2Pb(s) + CO2(g) carbon is oxidised lead oxide is reduced

More reactive metals?
Electrolysis of aluminium oxide CO2
Let’s extract a metal!
Carbon + copper oxide copper + carbon dioxide

Aluminium Light, and a very unreactive oxide layer forms over the reactive metal means it does not corrode
Aluminium Light, and a very unreactive oxide layer forms over the reactive metal means it does not corrode Aircraft, cars, cutlery etc.
