Answer : The formula of the gas produced is, PH_3 (phosphine gas)

Explanation :

According to the question, when sodium phosphide is treated with water then it react to give phosphine gas and sodium hydroxide.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Na_3P(aq)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow PH_3(g)+3NaOH(aq)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction we can say that:

1 mole of sodium phosphide reacts with 3 moles of water to give 1 mole of phosphine gas and 3 moles of sodium hydroxide.

Thus, the formula of the gas produced is, PH_3 (phosphine gas)

What is an alkali metal with fewer than 10 protons in its nucleus?
Trava [24]

Answer:

            Lithium

Explanation:

                  Alkali metals are group of metals which are present in first group of periodic table. As we know atomic number is equal to number of protons contained by a particular element. Therefore, the alkali metals along with there number of protons are listed below;

Alkali Metal                                         Number of Protons

Lithium                                                               3

Sodium                                                             11

Potassium                                                         19

Rubidium                                                         37

Cesium                                                             55

Francium                                                          87

Hence, it is cleared from above table that Lithium is having fewer protons than 10.
