ZIMSEC O Level Combined Science Notes: Heating metals in air

Some metals react with oxygen in the air at ordinary (room) temperature
Others only react with oxygen if they are heated in air
They may do this readily and release large amounts of energy in the process
Some metals hardily react at all even at very high temperatures

ZIMSEC O Level Combined Science Notes: Reversible reactions

In a reversible reaction there is a forward reaction
And a backward reaction
Both take place at the same time
As a result there is an equilibrium between the reagents and their products
That is at some point during the reaction process the amounts of both the reagents and their […]
