Read the given equation. 2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2 During a laboratory experiment, a certain quantity of sodium metal reacted with

water to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. What was the initial quantity of sodium metal used if 7.80 liters of H2 gas were produced at STP?

 From the equation it is evident that 2 moles of Sodium metal produces 1 mole of hydrogen gas.

At STP 1mole of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 liters.

Therefore, 7.80 gives---(7.80×1)/22.4  moles= 0.3482 moles

Since the mole ratio of Sodium to hydrogen is 2:1, then the number of moles of sodium that reacted is given by the following expression.

(0.3482×2)/1 moles which gives 0.6964 moles.

The atomic mass of  sodium is 23 thus the mass of sodium that reacted is given by:

mass=no. of moles×RAM

0.6964×23= 16.02 grams.

Where are the noble gases on the periodic table and what characteristics do they have?
OlgaM077 [116]
<span>the noble gases are those who occupy the eighth group of the periodic table and are so called because having the complete valence shell do not need to form bonds with other atoms and are thus in atomic form ...
</span>
The noble gases (also called rare gases) are of the inert gases that constitute the eighteenth [1] group of the periodic table of the elements, ie, the right-most column. They consist of atoms with electron shells full. It includes the following elements: helium neon argon krypton xenon radon Ununoctium <span>Sometimes they (particularly helium) are located together with other gases (mostly nitrogen and methane) into endogenous sources; helium of endogenous origin comes from the decomposition of radioactive elements present in the subsurface that emit α particles (ie ions He2 +): These oxidized species present in the soil and become elio.I atoms of the noble gases are all monatomic gas, not easily liquefiable, present the atmosphere in different percentages; the most common is argon which is approximately the 0.932%.</span>

What is used to classify galaxies?star typesestimated agecolorshape
Korvikt [17]

<span>The correct answer among the choices given is the last option. Galaxies are classified according to their shapes or visual morphology. There three main types of galaxies currently. They are the elliptical, spiral and irregular. Elliptical galaxies are like a spheroid or an elongated sphere. Spiral galaxies are characterized and distinguished by having a bulge, a disk and a halo. Lastly, irregular galaxies do not have regular or symmetrical shape.</span>
