What are some common compounds of aluminum?
Aluminum is an element (pure metal), not a compound.
Does magnesium react with aluminium sulphate?
No.Mg is less reactive than aluminum,therefore mg solution will not react with aluminum metal.
What unknown metal displaces aluminum from solution but does not displace sodium Using the activity series determine the unknown metal?
magnesium
What are the metal strips called that are placed in the copper compound solution during electrolysis?
electrode
Is aluminum a metal?
Yes, aluminum is a metal.
Is aluminum chloride a metal?
Aluminum chloride is not a metal. When a metal (Aluminum) is compounded with a nonmetal (Chloride) the resulting compound is no longer a metal.It is an example of an inorganic compound that "cracks" at mild temperature, reversibly changing from a polymer to a monomer.
Is aluminum chloride a binary ionic compound?
yes. Aluminum is a metal and chlorine is a non-metal making this a ionic compound!
What happens if you put copper metal into a solution of aluminum sulfate?
Nothing will happen. Displacement reaction only happens when the element is more reactive than the salt solution. An example will be the otherwise. If you put aluminum metal into a solution of Copper (II) Sulfate. The aluminum metal will displace copper metal and you will have a solution of Aluminum Sulfate and copper metal. As long the element you put into the salt solution is more reactive than the cation of the solution, it will displace the metal.
Is aluminum carbide a metal?
No. It is a chemical compound.
What is it called when a more reactive metal replace a less reactive metal in a compound?
it displaces the less reative metal and replaces it.
What are some common compounds of aluminum?
Aluminum is an element (pure metal), not a compound.
Does magnesium react with aluminium sulphate?
No.Mg is less reactive than aluminum,therefore mg solution will not react with aluminum metal.
Is aluminum compound?
Aluminum is an element on the periodic table. Aluminum used to be so rare that it was considered a precious metal.
What information does the activity series of a metal give?
It predicts of one metal will replace another metal in a compound.
Is sodium metal a compound or solution?
Neither, sodium metal is an element.
What information does the activity series of metals gives?
The activity series of metals lists the metals in order of reactivity, with the most reactive metals listed at the top, and the least reactive metals listed at the bottom. When determining the results of a single replacement (displacement) reaction, you compare the two metals according to their location on the list. If the elemental metal is higher on the list, it will replace the other metal in the compound. For example, Al + 3AgNO3 --> 3Ag + Al(NO3)3 occurs because the metal aluminum, Al, is higher than silver, Ag, on the metal reactivity list, and replaces the silver in the silver nitrate, AgNO3, to form elemental silver, Ag, and the compound aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3. The reverse reaction, 3Ag + Al(NO3)3 --> Al + 3Ag(NO3)3 will not occur, because the silver is lower on the list than aluminum, and cannot replace the aluminum in the aluminum nitrate, so the correct equation is Ag + Al(NO3)3 --> n.r. (which means "no reaction").
Is aluminum foil a compound?
Aluminum metal (symbol Al) is an element and therefore a pure substance. That said, if something is made out of aluminum (like aluminum foil) it is rarely pure aluminum and is typically an alloy composed of mostly aluminum with other metals. Alloys are used to improve the properties of the pure substance in various ways depending on the desired use. So, no, aluminum is not a compound.
