Tuesday, November 3 rd Please take out your notebook and yesterday’s lab activity Continue working on your analysis questions Today’s agenda Finish lab analysis Brief notes on single replacement reactions Single replacement reaction practice
Activity Series We can list metals (+ hydrogen) in order of how likely they are to become cations In other words, how likely they are to give up their electrons
Activity Series We can list metals (+ hydrogen) in order of how likely they are to become cations This list is called an activity series
Activity Series We can list metals (+ hydrogen) in order of how likely they are to become cations This list is called an activity series You can use an activity series to predict whether or not a single replacement reaction will occur
Activity Series We can list metals (+ hydrogen) in order of how likely they are to become cations This list is called an activity series You can use an activity series to predict whether or not a single replacement reaction will occur If a solid metal is HIGHER on the activity series than the metal that is part of the ionic compound, the reaction WILL occur.
You WILL have access to this information on a test and quiz – you don’t have to memorize it!
Activity Series Practice Use your activity series to predict whether the following reactions will occur. For each reaction that WILL occur, write a balanced chemical equation. Copper and lithium nitrate Lithium and copper (II) nitrate Gold and lead (IV) chlorate Aluminum and zinc chloride
Rest of period On the back of the Switcharoo activity, you will find the single replacement reaction practice. Complete this assignment When you are done, you can work on quiz corrections (due Friday)
