Its a single Displacement reaction

Answer:

The reaction 2 H₂O + 2 K (s) → 2 KOH (1) + 2H₂ (g) is <u><em>single-displacement (option A)</em></u>

Explanation:

A single-displacement reaction is a reaction in which an element of a compound is substituted by another element involved in the reaction. The general form of a simple substitution reaction is:

AB + C → A +BC

where C and A are pure elements; C replaces A within compound AB to form a new co, placed CB and elementary A.

A single-displacement reaction is characterized by a place of exchange of cations or anions with another to form a new product. A begins as an ion in the solution and appears elementally in the reaction products. In case of reagent C it starts in its elemental form and ends as an ion in an aqueous state forming compound BC.

On the other hand, in a decomposition reaction, a single substance decomposes, producing two or more different substances. The atoms that form a compound are separated to give the products according to the formula:

AB → A + B

Finally, combustion reactions are reactions where oxygen intervenes as a reagent. Oxygen has the ability to combine with various elements to produce oxides, where then oxidation is the combination of oxygen with another substance.

Taking into account all the previously stated definitions, you can see that <u><em>the reaction 2 H₂O + 2 K (s) → 2 KOH (1) + 2H₂ (g) is single-displacement (option A)</em></u>

What is the name of the ionic compound AlBr3?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: Correct name will be is aluminum bromide

Explanation:

In a molecular formula ,AlBr_3

Aluminium atoms present = 1  

Bromine atoms present = 3

Charge on aluminium is +3 and charge on bromine is -1.

While naming:

  • Name of the cation is written first. Simple name of the element is written
  • After name of cation name of an anions written with suffix 'ide' in the end.

So, the name of AlBr_3 will be aluminium bromide.

Which element has a larger atomic radius than sulfur? chlorine cadmium fluorine oxygen
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>

Explanation:

Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.

Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:

  • Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.

  • Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.

Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:

  • Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.

  • Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.

So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:

  • O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.

Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.
