Lithium has 1 valence electron available for bonding. So its A.

The answer is A. 1, because lithium has only one valence electron. A valence electron is an unpaired electron available for bonding with other elements. This makes lithium is a highly reactive element that can bond rapidly and often violently with any element having four to seven valence electrons (or with hydrogen).

Explanation:

Ammonia is a typical weak base. Ammonia itself obviously doesn't contain hydroxide ions, but it reacts with water to produce ammonium ions and hydroxide ions. My findings said that ammonia is a weak base, potassium hydroxide is a strong base, vinegar is a weak acid and ethyl alcohol is a weak acid.

Vinegar and ethyl alcohol are eliminated as they are acids. The question is on bases.... Potassium hydroxide is a strong base. So we are left with ammonia, being a weak base.

Calculate the amount of heat water absorbs from a piece of hot metal using the following data: 75.0 g of cold water is placed in

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Amount of heat absorbed by water is 2604.54 J.

Explanation:

Amount of heat absorbed by water = $m_{water}\times C_{water}\times \Delta T_{water}$

where m represents mass, C represents specific heat and $\Delta T$ represents change in temperature.

Here $m_{water}=75.0$ g , $C_{water}=4.184J/(g.^{0}\textrm{C})$ and $\Delta T$ = (final temperature - initial temperature) = (29.5-21.2) $^{0}\textrm{C}$ = 8.3 $^{0}\textrm{C}$
