<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Potassium (K).

<u>Explanation:</u>

Alkali (Group 1) and Alkaline earth (Group 2) elements react with water to produce metal hydroxide and also releases hydrogen gas.

Reaction of group 1 elements with water:

2M+2H_2O\rightarrow 2MOH+H_2

Reaction of group 2 elements with water:

M+2H_2O\rightarrow M(OH)_2+H_2

From the given options:

Potassium (K): This metal belongs to Group 1 and readily reacts with water to form potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

2K+2H_2O\rightarrow 2KOH+H_2

Tin (Sn): This element belongs to Group 14 and does not readily reacts with water.

Nickel (Ni): This element belongs to Group 10 and does not readily reacts with water.

Manganese (Mn): This element belongs to Group 7 and does not readily reacts with water.

Hence, the correct answer is potassium (K).

Calculate the number of moles of O2 gas held in a sealed 2.00 L tank at 3.50 atm and 25 ℃.
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

n=0.286mol

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we consider oxygen as an ideal gas, for that reason, we use yhe ideal gas equation to compute the moles based on:

PV=nRT\\\\n=\frac{PV}{RT}

Hence, at 3.50 atm and 25 °C for a volume of 2.00 L we compute the moles considering absolute temperature in Kelvins:

n=\frac{3.50atm*2.00L}{0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}(25+273)K} \\\\n=0.286mol

Best regards.

A piece of wood near a fire is at 23°c. it gains 1,160 joules of heat from the fire and reaches a temperature of 42°c. the speci
Alex73 [517]

The mass of the piece of wood is 35.58 g.

Joule = M × T × C

Where, M = mass

T = change in temperature(42C-23C=19 C)

C = specific heat capacity = 1.716 joules/gram

Substituting the values in the equation,

1160 = M × 19 × 1.716

M = 1160/32.604 = 35.58 g

Therefore, the mass of the piece of wood = 35.58 g

<h3>What is meant by specific heat capacity?</h3>

A material's specific heat capacity, which is defined as its heat capacity divided by its mass, determines how much energy is required to increase a gram's temperature by one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin)

<h3>What is mass?</h3>

Mass is the quantity of matter in a physical body.
