Answer:
Option D. 30 g
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:
2Na + S —> Na₂S
Next, we shall determine the masses of Na and S that reacted from the balanced equation. This is can be obtained as:
Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol
Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g
Molar mass of S = 32 g/mol
Mass of S from the balanced equation = 1 × 32 = 32 g
SUMMARY:
From the balanced equation above,
46 g of Na reacted with 32 g of S.
Finally, we shall determine the mass sulphur, S needed to react with 43 g of sodium, Na. This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
46 g of Na reacted with 32 g of S.
Therefore, 43 g of Na will react with = (43 × 32)/46 = 30 g of S.
Thus, 30 g of S is needed for the reaction.
The electrons is the answer
Answer:
2) lose electrons and form positive ions
Explanation:
Metals are generally electropositive elements due to the fact that they lose electrons to their non-metal counterparts and hence, form CATIONS or positively charged atoms. Non-metals, on the contrary, gains electrons and become negatively charged i.e form anions. These ions combine to form stable ionic compounds.
This electron-losing characteristics of metals make them have properties that includes: good conductors of electricity and heat, being lustrous etc.
