8D Science Prep 10th Feb

Some helpful hints

a) The factor being changed on the x axis, remember to label axis, title the graph and draw the appropriate line. Stick it in your prep book.

b) look at the shape of the line graph - what would happen at 90 degrees?

d) use a protractor, not just by eye

e) check in your text book - dispersion begins in the prism

f) a diagram is the best way to show this

8D Extraction of Metals

Extraction of metals

 

This piece of work should be up to 2 pages long.

Remember to use diagrams and pictures where this is useful.

 

You need to cover the following points

Examples of ores

  • Why most metals are not found “native” (which are?)
  • How metals are extracted showing a range of methods to include both the smelting of iron ore (show a blast furnace and what happens) and the electrolysis of aluminium (keep to the general principles – don’t get bogged down in the chemistry)
  • When the metals were first identified (stick to ones we use in class – copper, iron, aluminium etc)
  • Uses of different metals.
