Answer: 2.8 moles
Explanation:
The balanced equation below shows that 1 mole of sodium oxide reacts with 1 mole of water to form 2 moles of sodium hydroxide respectively.
Na2O + H2O --> 2NaOH
1 mole of H2O = 2 moles of NaOH
Let Z moles of H2O = 5.6 mole of NaOH
To get the value of Z, cross multiply
5.6 moles x 1 mole= Z x 2 moles
5.6 = 2Z
Divide both sides by 2
5.6/2 = 2Z/2
2.8 = Z
Thus, 2.8moles of H2O are needed to produce 5.6 mol of NaOH
Answer:
Ag
Explanation:
To determine which element will displace hydrogen from a dilute acid, we need to make reference to the activity series or the electrochemical series. The activity series is a list of metallic ions according to their electropositivity.
This means elements are ranked here based on how electrically positive they are. Hence, an element above another element is relatively more electropositive than the one under it. For example calcium is less electropositive compared to sodium as calcium is found under sodium in the list.
Now, for an element to displace hydrogen, it means the particular element is more electropositive than hydrogen on the activity series. All the elements in the options are in a greater position relative to hydrogen on the activity series except silver. This means it cannot displace hydrogen from a dilute mineral acid
Answer:
Both gives hydroxides, but
Calcium reacts with water to give calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2. this product is slightly soluble in water.
Aluminium is less reactive than Ca, so it reacts with only steam, to give aluminium hydroxide Al(OH)3. This product is insoluble in water.
Combustion means the burning of something. So in the given question, you could say, “In this question, combustion means the burning of methane”.
