UNIT 2: ALKALINE EARTH METAL (IIA) I EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS

Experiment 1: Flame color test

on an alcohol lamp The flame has an orange-red color

Perform similarly with:

Explain the phenomenon: The metal ion of the salt absorbs energy from the flame, the electrons in the outermost shell are excited to a higher energy level So when it returns to the ground state, it will emit radiation with wavelengths in the specific visible region that represents each metal ion and has a different color

When igniting alkaline earth metal cations (in compounds with suitable anions) the flame has a characteristic color In the main subgroup of group IIA, when going from top to bottom, the specific color of the flame will change from red to yellow, which means the energy increases gradually due to the increasing atomic radius, and the electrons easily move to a higher energy level

Experiment 2: Reaction of alkaline earth metal and water

Take 2 tubes and add in each tube 2 ml of water, a little Mg powder, and 1 drop of phenolphthalein

• Tube 1:

▪ When cooled

The reaction occurs very slowly At the phase contact surface, a light pink color appears Air bubbles emerge, which is hydrogen gas ▪ When heated

Air bubbles appear more The color is darker pink and spread throughout

Explain the phenomenon:

-Mg and water

decreases Therefore the reaction (1) occurs faster, and more air bubbles are released

solution fades to loss of color, and more gas is released Then the pink color reappears

Explain the phenomenon:

making the reaction (1) more intense and the gas released more

Mg(OH)2 + NH Cl MgCl + NH423± + H2O

Because Mg(OH)2 is dissolved, the balance (2) is shifted to the right, reducing OH- leading to phenolphthalein color loss

and OH- is produced by reaction (2)

Alkali-earth metals are weakly reactive with water at room temperature, but react strongly when heated or with a suitable catalyst

• Tube 1: React with acid (HCl) The precipitate dissolves, and the solution becomes transparent

• Tube 2: React with base (NaOH) No phenomenon occurs

solution with an unpleasant odor

b) Preparation and properties of alkaline earth metal hydroxide

-2³

The atomic radius from Mg to Ba increases gradually, so the attraction to the nucleus with the outermost electron decreases And because oxygen has a large electronegativity, it withdraws electrons more towards it, making the hydroxide molecule strongly polar, so it creates a polar solvent

Hydroxides of alkaline earth metals are basic By reacting their soluble salts with alkali metals, it is possible to prepare hydroxides of alkaline earth metals Experiment 4: Solubility of sulfate alkaline earth metal salt

completely consistent with their solubility product constants

The solubility of hydroxides and sulfate salts from Mg to Ba is the opposite because, for sulfate salts, the activation energy of the cation is greater than the lattice energy

water decreases, and the hydrate energy decreases, so the solubility decreases from Mg to Ba

Experiment 5: Determine the water hardness

Pipette 10ml of hard water solution into 250ml erlen Then, add distilled water to obtain the total volume of 100ml Add 5 ml of pH 10 buffer and about 7 drops of ERIO-T indicator Shake well and titrate with ETDA 0.02N solution until the indicator changes from purple-red to light blue Perform the titration twice

Vsample = 10 ml CN ETDA = 0.02 N

Experiment 6: Soften the hard water

calcium hydroxide slurry Boil mixture in 3 minutes and filter to remove the precipitate Use this mixture (10ml) to titrate with a similar procedure as experiment 5

Vsample = 50 ml

UNIT 6: HYDROGEN-OXYGEN- SULFUR I EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS

Experiment 1: Preparation of hydrogen gas

Install the air collection system

Put 3 zinc beads in a test tube, then add 5ml concentrated HCl solution Collect the gas produced with a small test tube filled with water upside down in a small basin filled with water Zinc gradually dissolves, creates many bubbles, and generates a lot of heat

Ignite the hydrogen gas released at the top of the pipe with a slight explosion, a yellow flame, and at the same time give off a lot of heat

Take the wall of a dry glass funnel and rub it on the fire There is steam moving up the wall of the funnel

Explain the phenomenon:

Because hydrogen reacts with oxygen mixed in the test tube and the gas pipeline, there is an explosion Initially, the amount of oxygen was more, so there was a loud explosion

2 H + O 22⎯³t

H2O

The steam formed meets the cold glass and condenses

Hydrogen can be produced by the reactions of active metal with a strong acid

is approximate 2:1, the explosion is the biggest

Experiment 2: Activity of hydrogen molecules and hydrogen atom

well and divide into 3 tubes Tube 1: Used as a standard tube

Tube 2: Let the hydrogen gas flow through The color of the solution fades but does not disappear

Hydrogen in test tube 2 is molecular hydrogen without strong reducing properties, so it does not react with KMnO4 The solution is a little pale because in the solution when there is still a new hydrogen atom, not yet combined into a molecule Tube 3: Add some zinc particles Zinc dissolves, bubbles appear, the solution pales and becomes transparent

The newly born hydrogen is atomic hydrogen, which is a strong reducing agent, so it reacts with KmnO4 to discolor the solution The gas is produced when unreacted atomic hydrogen combines to form molecular hydrogen

Experiment 3: Preparation of oxygen gas

the air collection system Heat the test tube and collect the escaping gas in the water-filled layer upside down in the water bath

2 KClO 3⎯ ³MnO2⎯,t

Experiment 4: Property of oxygen gas

- Take a little of burning Sulphur in the first tube of oxygen It bursts into violet-blue flame

Sulfur has a strong affinity with oxygen So it can burn in the air with the violet-blue flame

- Insert a glowing splint into the second tube of oxygen It bursts into flame The reaction is strongly exothermic

The tube that has a large amount of oxygen will increase the rate of reaction At a high temperature, carbon has a strong reducing property Thus, it reacts strongly with oxygen

CO2±

- Heat the copper wire and insert it into the third tube of oxygen

The black layer is due to copper being oxidized by oxygen, forming copper (II) oxide

Oxygen is a strong oxidizer (especially at high temperature), can easily oxidize metal and nonmetal to produce oxide

Oxygen is needed for fires to burn

2 I + H- 2O2 + 2 H I + 2 H O +÷ 22

a toothpick The solution is effervescent, with gas escaping The coals become brighter when being put into the tube, which proves that there is oxygen

Experiment 6: Reaction of Sulfur (S) and Copper (Cu)

Put 1g sulfur in a porcelain bowl, bring to a boil Use tongs to put the heated copper wire into the mouth of the upper porcelain cup The copper wire turns black, with white smoke rising

Cu(s) +S(g) CuS(s) ² (black)

White smoke is caused by evaporating sulfur

Sulfur has strong oxidizing properties at high temperatures The sulfur acts as an oxidizing agent in the above reaction Experiment 7: Reduction of thiosulfate salt

1:2) The solution is colorless Then it turns turbid

Sulfur makes the solution cloudy

II ANSWER THE QUESTIONS

1 Compare the activity of hydrogen molecules and atom Explain? Write the

Atomic hydrogen is a stronger reducing agent than molecular hydrogen The newly born hydrogen is atomic hydrogen with strong reducing properties, so this compound reacts with KMnO4 to make a colorless solution Gas is produced when unreacted atomic hydrogen combines to form molecular hydrogen

2O 2 The important reaction of Oxygen

An important reaction of oxygen is oxidation, especially the combustion reactions

C + O CO 2² 2

C H O6 12 6 + 6 O 6 CO + 6 H O 2² 22

peroxide in a cool, dark place, open only when needed And when opened, keep the original brown bottle, which is designed to limit the light in to decompose it

so Thiosulfate is a strong reducing agent and readily decomposes in acidic sulfur-forming environments

Oxidation number of S in Thiosulfate is +2

Then, add 5 droplets of HCHO 40% solution and heat the tube at 50 C A white Ā precipitate forms

II ANSWER THE QUESTIONS

1 Why do metals in groups IA and IB have different properties despite a similar outer layer structure with one electron?

Although the metals in groups IA and IB have a similar outer layer structure with one electron, their properties are very different The reason is that the barrier effect of IB metals is weaker than that of IA metals, leading to their higher first ionization energy Consequently, the IB metals are less active than the IA metals
