Answer is: lithium is the least reactive and potassium is the most reactive of the three alkali elements.
The reactivity of the alkali metals increases down the group because one valence electron (I group of Periodic system of elements) is farther away from nucleus and attraction force between electron and proton is weaker.

A solution has a pH = 4.63. What is the [H3O+] concentration?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Explanation:

The pH of a solution can you be found by using the formula

$pH = - log [ { H_3O}^{+}]$

Since we are finding the [H3O+] , substitute the value of the pH and find it's antilog

We have

$4.63 = - log[ { H_3O}^{+}] \\ [ { H_3O}^{+}] = {10}^{ - 4.63} \\ \\ = 2.344 \times {10}^{ - 5} mol {dm}^{ - 3}$

Hope this helps you

Explain why the weight of an object is different on Earth and the moon even though the object’s mass is the same in both places.

There is a thing called gravity. Gravity in the earth causes anything to stay down. There was an experiment a person held a plastic box with bricks on earth. It was really hard to pick it up. Then in the ISS (International Space Station) the same person help and it was so much easier no hardship at all, even a baby can do it!!
