Question:

AgNO3, Na2CO3, CuSO4, CaCl2, Pb(NO3)2.?

Which of the following ions reacted with the aluminum metal? a) lead (II), silver (I), and copper (II) ionsb) silver (I) and copper (II) ionsc) sodium and calcium ionsd) carbonate and hydroxide ionse) ammonium, sodium, and calcium ionsWith the exception of Na2CO3, neither the aluminum foil nor the chemicals appeared to have a reactionNot sure if I'm supposed to rely on appearance or refer to the quot;activity series of metalsquot; table/chart to confirm the correct reactionsPlease help!

How To Roast Minced Garlic
it's usually done with a whole head of garlic and I'm not sure exactly how it will turn out if it's chopped already and doesn't have the skin and outer fluff to protect it from the heat and cooking too fasttrying to roast it chopped will be no different than cooking it in oil on the stovetopI think you should just get a whole head of garlic, cut the top off so the cloves are exposed and drizzle it with olive oil wrapped in foil in the oven 400 for 30-45 minutes.
well, roasting it after it is chopped could prove to be trickyI would recommend that you start over with a whole head of garlicIf, however, that is not possible and you must roast the chopped garlic, then I would make sure that it is thoroughly coated in olive oil and roast in a low to moderate oven covered until sweetSmall pieces are more likely to burn and burnt garlic is really bitter.
If you refer to the activity series a) should be the answer But in practice aluminum foil quickly develops a coating of oxide by reacting with the oxygen in the airThis oxide is unreactive with most anything except concentrated acidsSo unless you scuffed the foil (to remove the oxide layer) just before you used it, you likely didn't see any reactions at all.
