JOM KIMIA A1 QUESTION 2 (2008 no. 2) The three statements below describe the observation made when three elements react with water. The elements are in Group 1 of the Periodic Table of Elements. Statement 1 Lithium, Li, moves slowly at random on the surface of the water with a little fizzing. The water then turns red litmus paper to blue. Statement 2 Sodium, Na, moves rapidly at random on the surface of the water with a hissing sound. The water then turns red litmus paper to blue. Statement 3 Potassium, K, moves very rapidly at random on the surface of the water. It ignites with a lilac flame with a pop and a hissing sound. The water then turns red litmus paper to blue. Plan a laboratory experiment to investigate the reactivity of lithium, sodium and potassium with water. Your planning should include the following aspects: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) Aim of the experiment. All the variables. Statement of the hypothesis. List of substance and apparatus. Procedure of the experiment. Tabulation of data. [17 marks]
