You can put a known amount sodium into some sort of time release mechanism such as a pill made from soluble material.  Then you can place the sodium into a calorimeter with a known mass of water and record the temperature change the water undergoes during the reaction.  Then you can use the equation q(water)=m(water)c(water)ΔT to find the amount of heat absorbed by the water.  since the amount of heat absorbed by the water is the amount of heat released from the sodium, q(sodium)=-q(water).  Than you can use the equation q(sodium)=m(sodium)c(sodium)ΔT and solve for c(sodium)

I hope this helps and feel free to ask about anything that was unclear in the comments.

Determine the rate of a reaction that follows the rate law rate = k a m b i where
ikadub [295]
(missing part of your question):
when we have K = 1 x 10^-2 and [A] = 2 M & [B] = 3M & m= 2 & i = 1
So when the rate = K[A]^m [B]^i
and when we have m + i = 3 so the order of this reaction is 3 So the unit of K is L^2.mol^-2S^-1
So by substitution:
∴ the rate = (1x 10 ^-2 L^-2.mol^-2S^-1)*(2 mol.L^-1)^2*(3mol.L^-1)
                 = 0.12 mol.L^-1.S^-1

Calculate the volume of the gas, in liters, if 1.75 mol has a pressure of 1.28 atm at a temperature of -7 ∘C
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.21 L at 279 K and 1.01 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.23 L and the temperature is 299 K.

 

You need to apply the ideal gas law PV=nRT

 

You have the pressure, P=1.01 atm

you have the volume, V = 2.21 L

The ideal gas constant R= 0.08205 L. atm/ mole.K at  273 K

 

find n = PV/RT = (1.01 atm x 2.21 L / 0.08205 L.atm/ mole.K x 273 K)

 

n= 0.1 mole, Now find the pressure for n=0.1 mole, T= 299K and

L=1.23 L

 

P=nRT/V= 0.1mole x 0.08205 (L.atm/ mole.K x 299 k)/ 1.23 L

= 1.994 atm

Explain how its electron configuration influences the chemical behavior of an atom.
Llana [10]

More unstable an electron configuration , the more reactive an atom will    become.

How electron configuration influences the chemical behavior of an atom?

This is happen generally, If we look at the Group 1 elements in the periodic table, they are all highly reactive as they have 1 electron in their outermost shells - an unstable configuration in terms of energy.

Also, the noble gases in Group 8 in the periodic table are 'inert' that means they don't react (or more correctly, have an incredibly low reactivity). This is because they have 8 electrons in their outermost shell and thus have no need to acquire or lose electrons to possess a stable electron configuration.

Hence, electron configuration influences the chemical behavior of an atom.
