Answer is: A) Sr (strontium).
The reactivity series<span> is a series of metals from highest to lowest reactivity.</span><span> Metal higher in the reactivity series will displace another.
</span>Strontium is only higher in this group from magnesium. Strontium is stronger reducing agent than magnesium, gives electrons easier.

The lewis dot notation for two atoms is shown. What is represented by this notation? K loses one portion to CI, K gains one port
telo118 [61]

Answer:

K loses one electron to CI

Explanation:

The lewis electron dot notation shows only the chemical symbol of the element surrounded by dots to represent the valence electrons.

  We have atom of K with one valence electrons

   Cl with 7 valence electrons

For an electrostatic attraction to occur, both particles must be charged. To do this, one of the species must lose an electron, and the other gains it.

This will make both species attain a stable octet;

   Hence, K will lose 1 electron and Cl will gain the electrons.

g 2BrO3- + 5SnO22-+ H2O5SnO32- + Br2+ 2OH- In the above reaction, the oxidation state of tin changes from to . How many electron
Archy [21]

Answer:

In the above reaction, the oxidation state of tin changes from 2+ to 4+.

10 moles of electrons are transferred in the reaction

Explanation:

Redox reaction is:

2BrO₃⁻ + 5SnO₂²⁻ + H2O ⇄ 5SnO₃²⁻ + Br₂ + 2OH⁻

SnO₂²⁻ → SnO₃²⁻

Tin changes the oxidation state from +2 to +4. It has increased it so this is the oxidation from the redox (it released 2 e⁻). We are in basic medium, so we add water in the side of the reaction where we have the highest amount of oxygen. We have 2 O on left side and 3 O on right side so we add 1 water on the right and we complete with OH⁻ in the opposite side to balance the H.  

SnO₂²⁻ + 2OH⁻ → SnO₃²⁻ + 2e⁻ + H₂O <u>Oxidation</u>

BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂

First of all, we have unbalance the bromine, so we add 2 on the BrO₃⁻. We have 6 O in left side and there are no O on the right, so we add 6 H₂O on the left. To balance the H, we must complete with 12OH⁻. Bromate reduces to bromine at ground state, so it gained 5e⁻. We have 2 atoms of Br, so finally it gaines 10 e⁻.

6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂ + 12OH⁻ <u>Reduction</u>

In order to balance the main reaction and balance the electrons we multiply  (x5) the oxidation and (x1) the reduciton

(SnO₂²⁻ + 2OH⁻ → SnO₃²⁻ + 2e⁻ + H₂O) . 5

(6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂ + 12OH⁻) . 1

5SnO₂²⁻ + 10OH⁻ + 6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ → Br₂ + 12OH⁻ + 5SnO₃²⁻ + 10e⁻ + 5H₂O

We can cancel the e⁻ and we substract:

12OH⁻ - 10OH⁻ = 2OH⁻ (on the right side)

6H₂O - 5H₂O = H₂O (on the left side)

2BrO₃⁻ + 5SnO₂²⁻ + H2O ⇄ 5SnO₃²⁻ + Br₂ + 2OH⁻

Afirmar que el h20 es la formula que corresponde al agua, esto es una teoría, idea, ley, hipotesis o experimentación
frozen [14]

Answer:

Ley.

Explanation:

En la teoría de la ciencia, la regularidad de los procesos en la naturaleza se denomina ley de la naturaleza. Las leyes naturales se diferencian de otras leyes en que los seres humanos no pueden ponerlas en vigor ni anularlas a su discreción. En tal sentido, la composición química del agua es indudablemente una ley natural, en tanto el hombre no puede modificarla sin modificar las características inherentes del agua como tal.
