Copper and Iron

Our second displacement reaction went well today, make sure you remember how they work for tomorrow as we will be looking at something called the reactivity series in relation to them.  If you have time, try and remember as many chemical symbols as you can from your planner

Displacement reaction

Cu + 2AgNO3 = Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag
This is the reaction that we looked at in class during the practical today.  Make sure you remember which parts are compounds and elements and how they swap over.  We will be doing another practical tomorrow so looking at the periodic table and knowing the symbols for Iron and Copper would be useful.
