2. Reactivity series
Scientists have a ranking system for metals from the most reactive to the least reactive. This is called the reactivity series.

3. Reaction #1: Metals with acid
There are three acids you need to know:
Hydrochloric acid, formula = HCl
Sulfuric acid, formula = H2SO4
Nitric acid, formula = HNO3
Metals react with acids to form metal salt and hydrogen gas
Metal + acid  metal salt and hydrogen.
e.g. Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid  Magnesium chloride + hydrogen
Mg HCl  MgCl H2
Cl- name in salt is chloride
SO42- name in salt is sulfate
NO32- name in salt is nitrate

4. Experiment In your practical groups: Collect:
A few pieces of magnesium ribbon
One box of matches
One bottle of acid
One or two test tubes
Put in some acid first and then a small piece of magnesium ribbon, put your finger over the top of the test tube and feel the pressure building up, and then bring a lit match near the top, release your finger…
