Answer:
Li(s) + H2O(l) -----> LiOH(aq) + H2(g)
Ca(s) + 2H2O(l) ---------------> Ca(OH)2(aq) + H2(g)
Explanation:
Metals react with water to yield the metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas as shown in the answer above.
The reaction equations were balanced, the number of atoms of each element on both side of the reaction equation is exactly the same.
This is the way to write a balanced reaction equation for the species shown in the question.
Is not a single replacement
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
A single replacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds
Reactions
A+BC--> AC+B
Metal halogens can force metal halide ions in the order F> Cl> Br> I
Oxidation : F₂> Cl₂> Br₂> I₂
Reaction
NaBr+I₂ -> NaI+Br₂
Then the reaction will not occur because I₂ cannot oxidize Br, or the reaction is said to be non-spontaneous
Explanation:
A metal with one valence electron is highly reactive compared to those with more than one electron.
Atoms including those of metals reacts in order attain a stable electronic configuration just like those of noble gases.
An atom with one valence electron have just one electron in its valence shell.
- Metals generally have large sizes.
- when the electron in this shell is lost, the metal atom can then attain stability.
- therefore, such atom will quickly want to combine with any other willing to accept the electron so that they can be stable.
- Those with more than one electron will find it difficult to lose them.
- It requires huge energy to remove such electrons compared to the ones with only one valence electron.
