3 REACTIVITY OF METALS WITH DILUTE ACIDS

ACTIVITY 6.3A INVESTIGATION:


Use the information from the book page 84 and 85 to plan an
investigation for Priya and Rohit. Choose which of the items in the
diagrams they need to use. Some of the items shown are not
appropriate to use. Discuss in your group how will you answer the
questions.
What will they need for the investigation:
First of all they will be needing safety screen, face protector, safety
glasses and gloves to protect themselves from dangerous acids as it can
burn their skin. The will be needing 4 that are concentrated hydrochloric
acid, concentrated sulfuric acid, dilute hydrochloric acid and dilute
sulfuric acid and 7 metals that are magnesium, copper, iron, aluminum,
zinc, lead in the form of blocks, filling of powder and final items are
beaker, thermometer and measuring cylinder.
1. What will they change?
Ans: They will change the metals, acids and beaker and flask to
measure the reactivity.
2. What will they keep the same?
Ans: They will keep same the amount of metals, acids and the time
taken to make a fair investigation.
3. How will they measure the reactivity and decide which is the
most or least reactive metal?
Ans: By keeping the same amount of dilute acids, giving them
equal time and same amount of metals to check which is the
most reactive metal.
4. how will they keep safe?
Ans: They will keep themselves by wearing safety glasses to protect
their eyes, safety screen and face protector to protect their
face from acids.
5. What equipment will they use?
Ans: They will use Becker, a thermometer, stopwatch for the time
and a measuring cylinder to measure the quantity of acids.
