Knowledge/understanding
1. Balance the following equations and state the type of reaction in each case.
TYPE: _____________________________
2. Using the activity series, decide whether the following reactions will occur. For the reactions that you
predict will occur, complete and balance the chemical equations.
2. Complete the following reactions. If there is a precipitate, you must Indicate It. If no reaction, indicate
with NR. (No need to balance). Indicate the states of all products.
b. KCl(s)
c. C2H8 + O2
d. Mg (s) + AgNO3(aq)

e. Pb(NO3)2 + MgCl2
3. The table below summarizes the reaction of metalsA-E with different aqueous solution of salts of the
metals. Arrange the elements V, W, X, Y and Z in an activity series.
Application
1. Some pipes supplying water to old homes are made of lead. Use the activity series to explain why many
homeowners are replacing these pipes with copper pipes.
3. Silver compounds are expensive. Metal manufacturers therefore want to recover any waste silver ions
from solution. One way to do this is to precipitate the silver as a compound and then separate the
compound from the mixture using filtration. Use the solubility table to determine a way of precipitating
only silver ions from a mixture of dissolved metal ions.

4. The inside of a fireplace is coated with a fine, black powder. What is the black powder? What does the
presence of the black powder indicate about the chemical reaction in the fireplace? Why is the proper
maintenance of a fireplace important for safety?
Communication
1) Predict the products and write a balanced chemical equation for the following chemical reactions:
a) Aqueous barium chloride is added to a solution which contains aqueous potassium carbonate.
2) What are the products of the reaction between propane, C3H8(g), and oxygen?
3) Is a chemical reaction between aluminum chloride, BaCI2, and iodine, I2, possible? If so, what are the
products? If not, explain why.
