In the other direction, the products react to form the reactants again
1,201
A special double-headed arrow ( ) is used to show this type of :A reversible reaction A reversible reaction is a chemical reaction that can proceed in both the forward and reverse directions
1,202
In other words, the reactants and products of the reaction may reverse roles
1,203
Remember that implies that A goes to B and cannot become A again
1,204
A can go to B and B can go to A.So, in the following reversible reaction: is the reaction.The forward reaction is always taken from the given equation and written: left to right
1,205
is the reaction.The reverse reaction is always taken from the given equation and written: right to left.Exercise 8.1See solutionsWhich of the following situations describes a closed system
1,206
The water vapour can leave the pot (system) if there is no lid
1,207
Assume that none of the solid or liquid reactants or products go into the gas phase
1,208
Initially (time = ), the rate of the is high (fast)
1,209
As the reaction gets closer to equilibrium the rate of decrease levels out until the forward reaction has a constant rate.Initially the rate of the is low (slow)
1,210
As the reaction progresses the rate of increase levels out until the reverse reaction has a constant rate.At this point the forward and reverse reaction rates are equal and this is called .Although it is not always possible to observe any macroscopic changes, this does not mean that the reaction has stopped
1,211
The forward and reverse reactions continue to take place and so microscopic changes still occur in the system
1,212
This state is called dynamic equilibrium.Dynamic equilibrium There is a dynamic equilibrium in a reversible reaction when the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction
1,213
In the liquid-gas phase equilibrium demonstration, dynamic equilibrium was reached when there was no observable change in the level of the water in the second beaker even though evaporation and condensation continued to take place.For more information on dynamic equilibriums watch this video:Video: 27VJ

A different concept to strong and weak is the concept of concentrated and dilute
1,215
Thus a strong acid can be prepared as either a concentrated or a dilute solution
1,216
A solution of which the exact concentration is known is called a standard solution
1,217
A concentrated solution is one where a large amount of a substance (solute) has been added to a solvent
1,218
Note that both strong and weak acids and bases can be used in concentrated solutions
1,219
Concentrated solution A concentrated solution is one where there is a high ratio of dissolved substance (eg acid or base) to solvent
1,220
A dilute solution is one where a small amount of a substance has been added to a solvent
1,221
Note that both strong and weak acids and bases can be used in dilute solutions
1,222
A concentrated solution has a lot of solute molecules (red circles) in the solvent
1,223
A dilute solution has few solute molecules (red circles) in the solvent
1,224
Dilute solution A dilute solution is one where there is a low ratio of dissolved substance to solvent
1,225
A concentrated solution can be made from a strong or a weak acid or base
1,226
A dilute solution can also be made from a strong or a weak acid or base
1,227
Whether a solution is concentrated or dilute depends on how much of the acid or base was added to the solvent
1,228
A strong base that is also concentrated would be a base that almost completely dissociates when added to a solution, and you also add a large amount of the base to the solution
1,229
A weak acid that is also dilute would be an acid where only a small percentage of molecules ionise when added to a solution, and you also add only a small amount of the acid to the solution
1,230
The electrical conductivity of a solution depends on the concentration of mobile ions in the solution
1,231
This means that a concentrated solution of a strong acid or base will have a high electrical conductivity, while a dilute solution of a weak acid or base will have a low electrical conductivity
1,232
Therefore, the more ions (charged particles) there are in a solution, the greater the electric current that can be conducted through the solution by the charged particles
1,233
These include ions in solution and ions in melted ionic materials
1,234
Only a small percentage of the molecules dissociate in the solution
1,235
Almost complete ionisation or dissociation means an acid or base is strong
1,236
Only a small amount of ionisation or dissociation means an acid or base is weak
1,237
Almost all the molecules ionise in the solution, therefore is a strong acid
1,238
Only a small percentage of the molecules dissociate, therefore is a weak base
1,239
A concentrated solution has a high ratio of solute to solvent
1,240
A dilute solution has a low ratio of solute to solvent
1,241
This is a high ratio, therefore the solution of is concentrated
1,242
This is a low ratio, therefore the solution of is dilute
1,243
Only a small percentage of the molecules ionise in the solution
1,244
Almost complete ionisation or dissociation means an acid or base is strong
1,245
Only a small amount of ionisation or dissociation means an acid or base is weak
1,246
Almost all the molecules dissociate in the solution, therefore is a strong base
1,247
Only a small percentage of the molecules ionise, therefore is a weak acid
1,248
A concentrated solution has a high ratio of solute to solvent
1,249
A dilute solution has a low ratio of solute to solvent
1,250
This is a low ratio, therefore the solution of is dilute
1,251
This is a high ratio, therefore the solution of is concentrated
1,252
To do that the molar mass (M) needs to be calculated
1,253
M() = ( x ) + + ( x ) =
1,254
To do that the molar mass (M) needs to be calculated
1,255
For every mole of a solvent there are moles of lithium hydroxide ()
1,256
There are many more moles of the base than the solvent
1,257
For every moles of a solvent there are moles of nitric acid ()
1,258
There are many more moles of the solvent than the acid
1,259
% of an unknown acid donates protons when the acid is added to water
1,260
This means that it almost completely forms ions in solution and is therefore a strong acid
1,261
Is a solution with a pH of strongly or weakly acidic
1,262
Although this is a strong acid the solution is only weakly acidic
1,263
This means that there must be a very small number of moles of the acid in the total volume of the solution
1,264
You need the number of moles (n) and the molar mass (M)
1,265
You need the number of moles (n) and the molar mass (M)
1,266
You have the volume (V) and original concentration of the ammonia solution, you need number of moles (n) in that original solution
1,267
Therefore n = C x V n(original solution of ) = x =
1,268
The final volume used to calculate the concentration must be the volume of the water plus the volume of ammonia added

In Grade 11 you learnt how a magnetic field is generated around a current-carrying conductor
1,272
You also learnt how a current is generated in a conductor that moves in a magnetic field or in a stationay conductor in a changing magnetic field
1,273
This chapter describes how conductors moving in a magnetic field are applied in the real-world.Today, currents induced by magnetic fields are essential to our technological society
1,274
The ubiquitous generator—found in automobiles, on bicycles, in nuclear power plants, and so on—uses magnetism to generate current
1,275
Other devices that use magnetism to induce currents include pickup coils in electric guitars, transformers of every size, certain microphones, airport security gates, and damping mechanisms on sensitive chemical balances

Many people are using solar power as a source of energy for their homes
1,278
Solar power can be used to heat water or to supply electricity
1,279
Have you ever wondered how solar energy is converted to electrical energy
1,280
In this chapter, we examine the process that is used to achieve this energy conversion.Video: 27Z3Units and unit conversions - Physical Sciences, Grade 10, Science skillsEquations - Mathematics, Grade 10, Equations and inequalitiesElectronic configuration- Physical Sciences, Grade 10, The atomElectromagnetic radiation- Physical Sciences, Grade 10, Electromagnetic radiationPhotoelectric effect:Description of the photoelectric effect.Give the significance of the photoelectric effect.Definition of the cut-off frequency.Definition of the work function and that it is material specificThe relationship between the cutt-off frequency and maximum wavelength.Calculations using the photoelectric equation.Knowing the relationship between the number of electrons and intensity of the incident radiation.Understanding the nature between the photoelectric effect and the particle of nature of light.Emission and absorption spectra:Explanation of the source atomic emission spectra and their unique relationship to each element.Relation between the atomic spectrum and the electron transitions between energy levels.Explaining the difference between atomic absorption and emission spectra.Applications of emission and absorption spectra.Units and unit conversions - Physical Sciences, Grade 10, Science skillsEquations - Mathematics, Grade 10, Equations and inequalitiesElectronic configuration- Physical Sciences, Grade 10, The atomElectromagnetic radiation- Physical Sciences, Grade 10, Electromagnetic radiation

An easy way to remember this is:In both oxidation and reduction a transfer of electrons is involved resulting in a change in the oxidation state of the elements
1,282
In each of the following reactions say whether the reactant iron species (, , ) is oxidised or reduced
1,283
This section studies the use of resources, more specifically phosphate rock, natural gas and other gases (like nitrogen and oxygen) to produce fertilisers to sustain a food supply for people on Earth
1,284
The industrial processes that are involved in the manufacturing of fertilisers are studied
1,285
The purpose of studying this industry is to make learners aware of the impact of human activities on the environment and our responsibility to use our resources sustainably.Prior knowledgeThis section of work is done at the end of the Grade 12 year and provides an ideal opportunity to revise some of the concepts covered in redox reactions, rates and extent of reactions, acid-base reactions and balancing of equations
1,286
The prior knowledge for this chapter includes a general awareness that the chemistry that is done at school has application in industrial processes in South Africa and elsewhere
1,287
Two examples that would have been covered in the electrochemistry section, namely the production of chlorine and the recovery of aluminium metal from bauxite, can provide a useful context to study further application of chemistry in real life
1,288
Furthermore, this section also builds on learners’ prior knowledge of the lithosphere and how we are using these resources on Earth.PlanningCAPS allocates 6 hours for this section
1,289
The suggested lessons can be adapted, depending on the length of the lessons at your school and how much time you have to teach the section
1,290
Introduction to the importance of nutrients This section covers the importance of nutrients and is necessary to understand the role of fertilisers
1,291
In this lesson learners should do the concept map activity as a way of summarising the information
1,292
Learners should start on the investigation of fertiliser use in their area from this first lesson, as it is a long investigation and requires a community survey
1,293
The role of fertilisers In this lesson the role of fertilisers should be covered
1,294
This includes an understanding of the NPK ratios and the specific nutrients found in different fertilisers
1,295
The industrial preparation of fertilisers This section covers the industrial production of chemicals used in inorganic fertilisers
1,296
At the end of the section there is a worksheet for the learners to complete
1,297
The worksheet, as well as the answer sheet is provided in this book
1,298
This is a long section and, if time allows, should be covered over three lessons
1,299
Alternative sources of fertilisers In this lesson learners should understand and be able to name alternative sources of fertilisers
