1. Magnesium atoms also have a slightly smaller radius than sodium atoms, and so the delocalised electrons are closer to the nuclei.
2. Sodium has higher melting point than potassium because of stronger metallic bonding .
3. Potassium are very soft metal can be very easily cut with a knife
4. Increase of resistance in metals. Therefore the mobility of electrons decreases and causes decrease in conductivity.
5.To increase strength, increase corrosion resistance, or reduce costs.
6. All metals have low ionization energies and are relatively electropositive, and so they lose electrons fairly easily.
7. All the group 1 metals are reactive, but they get more reactive as you go down the group, so potassium is more reactive than sodium.

Answer: a) The concentration after 8.8min is 0.17 M
b) Time taken for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M is 687 seconds.
Explanation:
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

where,
k = rate constant
t = age of sample
a = let initial amount of the reactant
a - x = amount left after decay process
a) concentration after 8.8 min:



b) for concentration to decrease from 0.25M to 0.15M


Brass is an alloy, or a combination of two (or more) metals.
Answer:
1.387 moles
Explanation:
Step 1:
The balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:
4Fe + 3O2 —> 2Fe2O3
Step 2:
Determination of the number of mole of Fe in 155.321g of Fe. This can be achieved by doing the following:
Mass of Fe = 155.321g
Molar Mass of Fe = 56g/mol
Number of mole of Fe =?
Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass
Number of mole of Fe = 155.321/56
Number of mole of Fe = 2.774 mol
Step 3:
Determination of the number of mole of rust (Fe2O3) produced. This is illustrated below:
From the balanced equation above,
4 moles of Fe produced 2 moles of Fe2O3.
Therefore, 2.774 moles of Fe will produce = (2.774 x 2)/4 = 1.387 moles of Fe2O3.
Therefore, 1.387 moles of rust (Fe2O3) is produced from the reaction
