Answer: Metals found as native minerals in nature are not highly reactive

Explanation:

Native minerals refers to minerals that are found in nature in their pure metallic form such as gold. Iron and aluminum are highly reactive metals. Highly reactive metals are far up in the activity series of metals, they have a great tendency towards oxidation. On the other hand, noble metals have less tendency towards oxidation and are found close to the bottom of the activity series for example, gold.

What is the volume (in liters) occupied by 49.8 g og HCl at STP
Anon25 [30]

Using ideal gas equation,

P\times V=n\times R\times T

Here,

P denotes pressure

V denotes volume

n denotes number of moles of gas

R denotes gas constant

T denotes temperature

The values at STP will be:

P=1 atm

T=273 K

R=0.0821 atm L mol ⁻¹

Mass of HCl given= 49.8 g

Molar mass of HCl given=36.41

Number of moles of gas, n= \frac{Given mass of the substance}{Molar mass of the substance}

Number of moles of gas, n= \frac{49.8}{36.46}

Number of moles of gas, n= 1.36

Putting all the values in the above equation,

V=\frac{1.36\times 0.0821\times 273}{1}

V=30.6 L

So the volume will be 30.6 L.
