Got a small question, I realize paper 3 includes EVERYTHING, but do we have to know the tests and what not.. or were those for only p6?

2NaCl + Pb(NO3) 2-----> 2Na(NO3) + PbCl2
for this you need to knw the reactivity series of metals
Please ( potassium)
Stop (Sodium)
Calling (Calcium)
My (Magnesium)
African (Aluminum)
Cool (Carbon)
Zebra (Zinc)
In (Iron)
Latin, (Lead)
History (Hydrogen)
Class (Copper)
She (Silver)
Grunts (Gold)
People (Platinum)
(double displacement will occur)So since Na is more reactive than lead so it will displace it .
And in precipitation methode,, soluble salt+soluble salt= insoulabe salt(PbCl2) + soluble 2Na(NO3) . P.S I hope this is correct lol

Hi,
i will make it in bulllet points:
- first u need to add limestone and hematite and coke
- the coke burns and provides heat for the reaction and releases CO2
- the CO2 reacts with more carbon to get carbon monoxide
- carbon monoxide reduces the iron oxide to pig iron
-limestone decomposes to CaO which neutralises the acidic impurities especially silicon oxide
- This forms slag this is less dense than iron and so it floats on top of it preventing iron from oxidation.

To make steel from pig iron:
first add oxygen to oxide carbon to carbon dioxide and monoxide which escape and also it oxide silicon to silicon oxide and then u add CaO which neutralizes the silcon oxide and then the steel can be extracted.
* make sure that u dont remove all of the carbon as this will cause the iron to oxidise back to iron oxide.

hi,
450 degree Celsius is used because it is a compromise i.e it makes sure that the rate stays as fast as possible without causing the equilibrium position to move to the endothermic direction which is the backward reaction causing a decrease in the yield.
I hope i helped, if u need anything just post here :D
