How reactive is an atom of Sodium(Na) and why? Question 1 options: Sodium (Na) is very reactive because it does not have a full

valence shell. Sodium (Na) is very reactive because it does not have enough protons in the nucleus. Sodium (Na) is not very reactive because it does not have a full valence shell. Sodium (Na) is not very reactive because it can only bond with Chlorine (Cl) to become salt. Save

I'm pretty sure the answer is the first one. The fact that it doesn't have a full valence shell means that electrons from other atoms can react and bond with the sodium atom.
Hope this helps x

Calculate the amount of heat released in the combustion of 10.5 grams of Al with 3 grams of O2 to form Al2O3(s) at 25°C and 1 at
ElenaW [278]

Answer : The amount of heat released in the combustion is, 209.5 kJ

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of Al and O_2.

\text{ Moles of }Al=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Al}{\text{ Molar mass of }Al}=\frac{10.5g}{27g/mole}=0.389moles

\text{ Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }O_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }O_2}=\frac{3g}{32g/mole}=0.188moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

4Al+3O_2\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 3 mole of O_2 react with 4 mole of Al

So, 0.188 moles of O_2 react with \frac{4}{3}\times 0.188=0.251 moles of Al

From this we conclude that, Al is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and O_2 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of Al_2O_3

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 3 mole of O_2 react to give 2 mole of Al_2O_3

So, 0.188 moles of O_2 react to give \frac{2}{3}\times 0.188=0.125 moles of Al_2O_3

Now we have to calculate the amount of heat released in the combustion.

As, 1 mole of Al_2O_3 releases amount of heat = 1676 kJ

So, 0.125 mole of Al_2O_3 releases amount of heat = 0.125\times 1676kJ=209.5kJ

Thus, the amount of heat released in the combustion is, 209.5 kJ
