Warm Up- Separate piece Warm Up- Separate piece of paper…NOT IN CB!!of paper…NOT IN CB!!
Reactivity LabReactivity Lab
Purpose- To look at the reactivity of Purpose- To look at the reactivity of different metals and determine an different metals and determine an activity series.activity series.
HypothesisHypothesis
Think about the number of valence Think about the number of valence electrons in an atom….Which metals electrons in an atom….Which metals do you think are most reactive?do you think are most reactive?
Metals with ____________ valence Metals with ____________ valence electrons will have _____________ electrons will have _____________ reactivity, because…… reactivity, because……
How does it work?How does it work?
A reaction takes place when electrons A reaction takes place when electrons move. The more reactive atom gives move. The more reactive atom gives its electrons to the less reactive atom its electrons to the less reactive atom
and “replaces” it in the compound.and “replaces” it in the compound.
Na is more active than LiNa is more active than Li
Na + LiCl Na + LiCl →→ Li + NaCl Li + NaCl

ProcedureProcedure
1.1. Place metals in the correct well.Place metals in the correct well.
2.2. Add the correct solution using the Add the correct solution using the plastic pipettes (be careful!)plastic pipettes (be careful!)
3.3. Make observations for any well that Make observations for any well that seems to react. Record color seems to react. Record color changes, formation of new changes, formation of new substances, bubbles…etc.substances, bubbles…etc.

When you look at the number When you look at the number of valence electrons, you of valence electrons, you notice that all the metals we notice that all the metals we used all the same number….used all the same number….
So it must have more to do So it must have more to do with where the electrons are with where the electrons are on the atom…on the atom…
Trend in ReactivityTrend in Reactivity
Reactivity increases down a group- the Reactivity increases down a group- the electrons are farther away from the nucleus.electrons are farther away from the nucleus.
Look at Bohr models for Li and KLook at Bohr models for Li and K
Reactivity decreases from left to right across Reactivity decreases from left to right across the PT because the orbitals are getting closer to the PT because the orbitals are getting closer to being complete…being complete…
