whats the trend in atomic radius down the group?
• increases • electron number increases so the number of shells do
whats the trend in I.E down the group?
• decreases • shielding increases and electrons become further away from the nucleus
whats the trend in mpt down the group?
• decreases electrons get further away from the positive nucleui as atoms get bigger, less attraction between, metal ions and delocalised electrons
whats the trend in reactivity with water down the group?
• increases 2 electrons are lost more easily from Ba than Ca as the outer electrons are further from the nucleus and experience more shielding, so attraction decreases
whats the trend in solubility down the group with metal hydroxides?
• increases • Mg0H2 is insoluble Ca and Mg are solids others are aqueous
whats the trend in solubilty down the group with metal sulphates?
• decreases • Mg is the only aqueos one rest are solids • Sr, Ba, Ra are insoluble
what is observed in Mg, Ca, Sr, Bacl2 when reacted with NaOH?
mg + ca = white percipitate ba + sr = colourless solution
what is observed in Mg, Ca, Sr, Bacl2 when reacted with H2SO4?
mg + ca = colourless solution sr + ba = white percipitate
what do u add to test for sulphates?
add HCL + BaCl2
what is Mg(OH)2 used for?
neutralises stomach acid
