Answer:
The elements toward the bottom left corner of the periodic table are the metals that are the most active in the sense of being the most reactive.
Answer:
15.438g H2O
Explanation:
First you need to find the reaction equation:
2H2O+2Na=2NaOH + H2
Hydrogen is a diatomic molecule so it will have a subscript of 2 on the right hand side. From there we can balance the reaction.
Then we can use stoichiometry:
34.2g NaOH * (1 mol NaOH/39.908g NaOH) * (2 mol H2O/2 mol NaOH) * (18.015g H2O/1 mol H20) = 15.438g H2O
It is important that when you use stoichiometry that all your units cancel out until you only have the unit you want.
The reaction between 1 mole of NaOH and 1 mole of HCl creates 1 mole of NaCl and 1 mole of water. Meaning that the moles of HCl needs to equal that of NaOH for the solution to be considered equalized. That being said, you first need to find the numbers miles of HCl by multiplying the volume by the molarity to get 0.01 moles HCl. (1Mx0.01L=0.01). That means that you need 0.01 moles of NaOH. I hope that helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
