The answer is Strontium(Sr). The reactive increase from right to left. And this element has two valence electrons. So Rb is not correct. Then the very reactive metal is Sr.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Strontium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reactivity of an element is defined as the tendency to loose or gain electrons. Reactivity decreases as we move from left to right in a period and it increases as we move from up to down in a group.

A metal which belongs to Period 5 and has 2 valance electrons is Strontium. This element belongs to Group 2.

The electronic configuration of strontium (Sr) = [Kr]5s^2

Hence, the correct answer is Strontium.

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

2 CrO42- + 3N2O + 10 H+ -----> 2Cr3+ + 6NO + 5H2O

Explanation:

2 CrO42- + 3N2O + 10 H+ -----> 2Cr3+ + 6NO + 5H2O

Oxidizing agent: -----------------------------> CrO42-

Reducing agent: ----------------------------> N2O

explanation:

in CrO4-2 oxdiation state of Cr = +6

in Cr+3 oxidation state = +3

+6 oxidation state changed from +3 it is reduction .

so CrO4-2 is oxidizing agent

atomatically

N2O should be reducing agent

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

C.5

Explanation:

A number of electrons present in valence shell of penultimate Shell represents the group of elements.

For s block elements: no.of group=number of valence shell electron.

p block elements: no. of group= 2 + 10 + number of valence electrons.

d block elements: no. of group= number(n-1)d electrons + number of electrons in nth shell.

Here, the differential electron is in p orbital hence, it belongs to p block

No. of group= 2+ 10 + 3=15 i.e 15th group or VA group.

How can you prove copper is a catalyst?
jolli1 [7]
There is no way to know which reaction requires which catalyst. However, if you apply copper to a reaction where it does act as a catalyst, the rate of reaction will be much faster as it lowers the activation energy for successful collisions.
