How reactive is an atom of Sodium(Na) and why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
s344n2d4d5 [400]3 years ago
5 0
3rd one:
it is very reactive because it does not have a full Valence shell.

this is because it's in group 1 so it has one electron in its outer shell, and it wants to have a full outer shell ( which it can gain by losing the electron in a reaction).

Hope this helps :)

Determine the [H3O+] in a 0.265 M HClO solution. The Ka of HClO is 2.9 × 10-8.
dexar [7]

8.8 × 10-5 M is the  [H3O+] concentration in 0.265 M HClO solution.

Explanation:

HClO is a weak acid and does not completely dissociate in water as ions.

the equation of dissociation can be written and ice table to be formed.

 HClO +H2O ⇒ ClO- + H3O+

I  0.265                0        0

C  -x                    +x     +x

E  0.265-x          +x      +x

Now applying the equation of Ka, where Ka is given as 2.9 × 10-8.

Ka = \frac{[ClO-][H3O+]}{[HClO]}

2.9 × 10^-8 = \frac{[x] [x]}{[0.265-x]}

x^{2} = 7.698 x10^{-9}

x = 8.8 × 10-5 M

The hydronium ion concentration is 8.8 × 10-5 M  in 0.265 M solution of HClO.

Explain why the atomic radius decreases across a period and increases down a group ?​
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

In general, atomic radius decreases across a period and increases down a group. ... Down a group, the number of energy levels (n) increases, so there is a greater distance between the nucleus and the outermost orbital. This results in a larger atomic radius.
