NaBr(s) -----\ \textgreater \   Na(s) + Br_2(g)

We can balance like the following:

2NaBr(s) -----\ \textgreater \ 2Na(s) + Br_2(g)

<span>In NaBr both the oxidation states are +1 and -1 respectively.After the reaction Na reduced to Na+ and Br- oxidised to Br2.So NaBr is a redox reaction,not a decomposition reaction.</span>

Which statement describes a chemical property
Len [333]

Answer;

(4) Sodium can combine with chlorine to produce a salt.

Explanation;

Sodium is an alkali metal (group 1 ) in the periodic table. It is a soft metal, reactive and with a low melting point. It has an atomic weight of 23 grams.

Sodium is a good conductor of electricity due to the presence of delocalized electrons in its metallic structure. It reacts vigorously with water to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen.

-When exposed to air, metallic sodium recently cut looses its silvery appearance and acquires an opaque grey color due to the formation of a sodium oxide coating.

A student is investigating the pH of a substance. The pH of the unknown substance is 5.4. Which of the following substances is t
zimovet [89]

Answer:

  • <u><em>Substance A.</em></u>

Explanation:

pH is a measure of the concentration of H₃O⁺ ions in a solution.

It is defined as:

     pH=\log \dfrac{1}{[H_3O^+]}=-\log [H_3O^+]

For the given substances

Sustance        [H₃O⁺]         pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

                           M

    A                4×10⁻⁶         -log (4×10⁻⁶) = 5.4 ← answer

    B                6×10⁻⁷         -log (6×10⁻⁷) = 6.2

    C               error                      - - - - - -

    D               1.3×10⁻¹        -log (1.3×10⁻¹) = 0.89

Thus, the unknown substace most likely is A.
