The answer would be 2.0 x 10^-1
Answer:
Like most other metals, Gallium is solid at room temperature (or liquid if it is too hot in your room). But, if it is held [in hands] for long enough, it melts in your hands, and doesn't poison you like Mercury would. This is because of its unusually low melting point of (~29 degree Centigrade).
- It melts once it reaches its melting point.

Answer:
Wouldn't rust because zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron and will therefore oxidize first.
Explanation:
This process whereby rusting of steel is prevented by coating the steel with a layer of zinc is known as galvanization.
Now, in this process, the steel object will be coated in a thin layer of zinc. This coating will prevent oxygen and water from reaching the underneath metal since the zinc will also act as a sacrificial metal.
Now, Zinc is used because it has a lower reduction potential than iron and thus it will get easily more oxidized than iron. Which means the zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron.
Also, since zinc has a lower reduction potential, it is therefore the more active metal. Thus, even if the zinc coating is scratched and the steel is exposed to moist air, the zinc will still get to oxidize before the iron.
Answer : The number of moles of oxygen needed are, 1.5 moles.
Explanation :
The balanced chemical reaction will be:
Now we have to calculate the moles of oxygen.
From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,
As, 6 moles of water vapor produces from 5 moles of oxygen
So, 1.80 moles of water vapor produces from 
moles of oxygen
Therefore, the number of moles of oxygen needed are, 1.5 moles.
