Study Notes
Displacement Reactions
- A displacement reaction involves replacing a less reactive metal in a compound with a more reactive metal.
- The general word equation for a metal reacting with an acid is:
- metal + acid → salt + hydrogen.
Reactivity Series
- The reactivity series ranks metals based on their ability to displace other metals from compounds:
- Potassium
- Sodium
- Calcium
- Magnesium
- Aluminium
- Carbon
- Zinc
- Iron
- Lead
- Copper
- Silver
- Gold
- Platinum
- Metals above hydrogen in the reactivity series will react with acids, while those below will not.
Acids Mentioned
- Common acids include:
- Sulphuric acid (H2SO4)
- Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
- Nitric acid (HNO3)
Predicting Displacement Reactions
- Displacement reactions can be predicted using the reactivity series; more reactive metals can replace less reactive ones from their compounds.
Practical Examples
- Examples of displacement reactions to consider:
- Copper Sulphate + Magnesium → Magnesium Sulphate + Copper
- Copper Sulphate + Zinc → Zinc Sulphate + Copper
- Zinc Sulphate + Magnesium → Magnesium Sulphate + Zinc
- Zinc Sulphate + Copper → Copper Sulphate + Zinc
- Tin Chloride + Zinc → Zinc Chloride + Tin
- Magnesium Nitrate + Copper → Copper Nitrate + Magnesium
Literacy Focus
- Emphasizes the importance of using scientific terminology and key words in understanding displacement reactions.
