Instructions

I have made and inserted gifs of the simulations for you directly into this Formative. You may use your textbook to complete this assessment. 

Part A: Reactivity Series

Some metals react readily with others, displacing them out of a solution and sometimes, there is no reaction. 
For these simulations you need to observe in each case whether a reaction takes place between the two metals. 
Where a reaction does take place, describe your observations. You will also calculate the Eo cell value for each combination.

SIMULATION 1
The reactions of Mg with various metal solutions.
Use the simulation to observe the reactivity of magnesium in each solution.

TWO observations were seen in the Mg in Cu(NO3)2 experiment. Explain why each one occurred.

SIMULATION 2
The reactions of Cu with various metal solutions
Use the simulation to observe the reactivity of copper in each solution.

SIMULATION 3
The reactions of Zn with various metal solutions
Use the simulation to observe the reactivity of zinc in each solution.

SIMULATION 4
The reactions of Ag with various metal solutions
Use the simulation to observe the reactivity of silver in each solution.

Part B: Redox at the molecular level

In this simulation you can observe a redox reaction at the molecular level. 

SIMULATION 5
Zn in Cu(NO3)2 at the molecular level
