I recognise some everyday metals.

I can describe some of their properties.

I know that hydrogen gas is made when a metal reacts with an acid.

I can describe how to do a test for hydrogen.

I know that carbon dioxide gas is made when a carbonate reacts with an acid.

I can describe how to do 2 tests for carbon dioxide (lime water and splint).

I know that a chemical reaction produces new substances.

I can describe how acids react with metal carbonates, metal oxides and alkalis.

I know how to name the salts that are formed.

I would recognise that a chemical reaction had taken place from practical evidence.

I know that some metals react more than others with water, acid or oxygen.

I can represent chemical reactions using word equations.

I can explain how salts are made.

I can represent chemical reactions using symbols.

I can make predictions about chemical reactions based on my knowledge of how chemicals behave.
