Answer:

9.36g of H2O.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction.

2Na + 2H2O —> 2NaOH + H2

Next, we shall determine the mass of Na and H2O that reacted from the balanced equation.

This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of Na = 23g/mol

Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 x 23 = 46g

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 2 x 18 = 36g

From the balanced equation above,

46g of Na reacted with 36g of H2O.

Now, we can determine the mass of H2O involved in reaction as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

46g of Na reacted with 36g of H2O.

Therefore, 11.96g of Na will react with = (11.96 x 36)/46 = 9.36g of H2O.

Therefore, 9.36g of H2O were used for the reaction.

Are two atoms of same element identical​
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

No. Two atoms of the same chemical element are typically not identical. Since the states of the electrons in an atom are what determine the nature of the chemical bonding that the atom experiences, two atoms of the same element can react differently if they are in different states.

An element Y has 13 protons . with reference on Y answer these questions •
kobusy [5.1K]

Explanation:

Y has 13 protons and we know that Aluminium (Al) too has 13 protons.

So , element Y = Aluminium

• In an element , no. of protons = no. of electrons. So , Y has 13 electrons.

• Mass no. of Y (Aluminium) = 27.

• Also we know that ,

Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

So,

No. of neutrons = 27 - 13 = 14

• Valence electrons are the electrons which are present in the outermost shell of an element.

Electronic Configuration of Y = 2,8,3

So, Y has 3 valence electrons.

• We know that Y is Aluminium & Aluminium is a metal. So , Y is a metal.

• Valency of Y = +3

Which ion will most likely form a precipitate when reacted with SO42 ?
Charra [1.4K]
<h2>Answer:Ba^2+</h2>

Explanation:

option A:

SO_{4}^{2-} is an anion and Cl^{1-} is also an anion.So,there is no reaction.

option B:

K^{+} reacts with SO_{4}^{2-} to form K_{2}SO_{4}.

Since K is a first group element,all its salts are soluble in water.

Hence no precipitate is formed.

option C:

Na^{+} reacts with SO_{4}^{2-} to form Na_{2}SO_{4}.

Since Na is a first group element,all its salts are soluble in water.

Hence no precipitate is formed.

option D:

Ba^{2+} reacts with SO_{4}^{2-} to form BaSO_{4}.

Solubility of sulphates of second group elements decrease down the group.

So,BaSO_{4} is a precipitate.

In a particular reaction, 53.8 g of liquid silicon tetrachloride is added to 65.0 g of solid magnesium to produce solid magnesiu
kotykmax [81]

Answer: Mg is the excess reactant for the forward reaction.

Explanation: It is a stoichiometry problem and solved with the help of given grams and using balanced equation. Grams of both the reactants are converted to moles and divided by their coefficients. The excess reactant is the one for which we get the highest number on doing above steps.

The balanced equation is:

SiCl_4(l)+2Mg(s)\rightarrow 2MgCl_2(s)+Si(s)

Molar mass of silicon tetra chloride is 169.9 gram per mol and the molar mass of Mg is 24.3 gram per mol.

53.8gSiCl_4(\frac{1mol}{169.9g})

= 0.317molSiCl_4

65.0gMg(\frac{1mol}{24.3g})

= 2.67 mol Mg

From balanced equation, the coefficient of silicon tetra chloride is 1 and that of Mg is 2. So, we will divide the moles of silicon tetra chloride by 1 and that of Mg by 2 and see which one gives highest number.

For silicon tetra chloride, \frac{0.317}{1}  = 0.317

and for Mg, \frac{2.67}{2}  = 1.34

The highest number is for Mg and so the excess reactant for the forward reaction is Mg.
