Reaction of Alkali metals with water. Grade 10 SABIS ​ Generally: 2M(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2M+ (aq) + 2OH- (aq) + H2(g) alkali metal + water → alkali metal hydroxide + hydrogen Observations for the reaction of alkali metal with water:  Piece of metal floats (alkali metals have low density).  Piece of metal darts around.  A hissing sound is heard due to the evolution of a gas.  If red litmus paper is dipped in the solution, the paper turns blue due to the formation of the alkali metal hydroxide.  If few drops of phenolphthalein indicator are added to the water solution turns pink due to the formation of alkali metal hydroxide.  If the gas produced is tested with a lit splint, it burns with a squeaky pop sound.

Scientists explain the electrical conductivity of metals by:  the presence of electrons in the crystal that are loose, these electrons can move throughout the metallic crystal without specific attachment to particular atoms  and the ease of freeing one electron per atom. Grade 10 SABIS ​

2 construct and interpret a reaction pathway diagram, in terms of the enthalpy change of the reaction and of the activation energy A Level Chemistry CIE Constructing and interpreting a reaction pathway diagram allows us to visualize the energy changes that occur during a chemical reaction. This diagram, also known as an energy profile or reaction energy diagram, illustrates the progression of a reaction from reactants to products along the reaction pathway. The vertical axis of the reaction pathway diagram represents the energy content of the system, typically measured in terms of enthalpy (H). The horizontal axis represents the progress of the reaction from left to right, going from the reactants to the products. The diagram includes three key components: the reactants, the products, and the energy changes that occur during the reaction. The enthalpy change (∆H) of the reaction is represented by the difference in energy between the reactants and the products. If the reactants have a higher enthalpy than the products, the ∆H value is negative, indicating an exothermic reaction. Conversely, if the products have a higher enthalpy than the reactants, the ∆H value is positive, indicating an endothermic reaction. On the reaction pathway diagram, the enthalpy change (∆H) is shown as the vertical distance between the energy levels of the reactants and products. For an exothermic reaction, the products' energy level is lower than that of the reactants, resulting in a negative ∆H. In contrast, for an endothermic reaction, the products' energy level is higher, leading to a positive ∆H. Additionally, the reaction pathway diagram illustrates the activation energy (Ea) of the reaction. The activation energy represents the energy barrier that must be overcome for the reaction to proceed. It is the minimum energy required for the reactant molecules to reach the transition state and form the products. On the reaction pathway diagram, the activation energy is shown as the energy difference between the reactants and the highest energy point on the reaction pathway, known as the transition state or the activated complex. The activation energy determines the reaction rate and influences the speed at which the reaction occurs. By examining the reaction pathway diagram, we can interpret various aspects of the reaction. The height of the energy barrier (activation energy) indicates the difficulty of the reaction. A higher activation energy implies a slower reaction rate, while a lower activation energy suggests a faster reaction. The overall enthalpy change (∆H) can be calculated by comparing the energy levels of the reactants and products. It represents the difference in energy content between the initial and final states of the system. The enthalpy change, along with the activation energy, provides valuable insights into the energy profile and kinetics of the reaction. Understanding and interpreting a reaction pathway diagram allows chemists to analyze the energy changes involved in a reaction. It helps predict the feasibility, rate, and overall energy requirements of the reaction. By examining the enthalpy change and activation energy, we can gain a deeper understanding of the reaction's thermodynamics and kinetics. In summary, constructing and interpreting a reaction pathway diagram enables us to visualize and analyze the energy changes and activation energy of a chemical reaction. The diagram provides insights into the enthalpy change (∆H) between reactants and products, as well as the energy barrier required for the reaction to occur. By examining these components, we can assess the reaction's energy profile, feasibility, and rate, enhancing our understanding of chemical kinetics and thermodynamics.
