The question above is incomplete, the full question is given below:
What additional test would be needed to establish the exact position of hydrogen in the activity series of the following elements: magnesium, zinc, lead, copper and silver.
ANSWER
The position of hydrogen on a reactivity series can be determined by its ability to displace oxygen from the oxide of the metal concerned. If hydrogen is more reactive than a metal, it will displace oxygen from the metal oxide and reduce the metal oxide to its metal. If the metal is more reactive than hydrogen, hydrogen will not be able to reduce the metal oxide to its metal.
Answer:
sodium hydroxide
Explanation:
its a base and it can damage skin
The empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula : C₁₀H₅O₂
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Molecular formula : C₁₀H₅O₂
Required
The empirical formula
Solution
The empirical formula (EF) is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.
The molecular formula (MF) is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.
(empirical formula) n = molecular formula
<em>(EF)n=MF
</em>
(EF)n = C₁₀H₅O₂
If we divide by the number of moles of Oxygen (the smallest) which is 2 then the moles of Hydrogen will be a decimal number (not whole), which is 2.5, then the empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula
Answer:
nuclear energy is the cleanest and safest energy source we have available and i agree with this statement for following reasons:
1. Nuclear power is generated by a controlled chain reaction involving the splitting of atoms. A modern nuclear power plant uses the intense heat created by this reaction to heat water and create steam, which turns a turbine and generates electricity. Whereas a coal-fired plant heats water by burning coal, a nuclear plant heats it by splitting atoms. This process is called nuclear fission.
2. Nuclear fission, in simple terms, occurs when an atom splits in two, releasing a massive amount of energy and several subatomic particles called neutrons. These neutrons, in turn, hit and split other atoms, beginning and sustaining the chain reaction. Reactor operators control this reaction in a variety of ways and thus regulate the amount of heat generated and energy produced.
3. The raw fuel for this process is the metal uranium, which must be enriched before it can be used for producing energy in commercial reactors. Enrichment is necessary because mined uranium ore is around 99.3 percent uranium-238, which, in today’s commercial power plants, does not readily split upon exposure to neutrons from the fission chain reaction, and thus makes poor fuel. The other 0.7 percent of mined uranium is uranium-235, which makes excellent fuel. The number refers to the atomic mass, or the total mass of protons and neutrons that make up the atomic nucleus. This difference in mass of the same element makes them two different isotopes of uranium. The enrichment process consists essentially of increasing the percentage of uranium-235 by decreasing the percentage (via removal) of uranium-238.

Answer:
A) HCI( hydrochloric acid)
Explanation:
HCI is a strong acid because it has more number of hydrogen ions whereas acetic acid contains less number of hydrogen ions so its a weak acid
