Answer:
Option D: it's ability to lose electrons
Explanation:
Alkali metals are usually discovered in nature. They have highly reactivity at STP conditions (standard temperature and pressure conditions) and easily lose their outermost electron to form positive ions known that have a charge of +1.
Thus, what can determine the extent of reactivity of an alkali metal, is it's ability to lose electrons
Answer:
47.5 mL
Solving:
M1 = 4.00 M
V1 = ?
M2 = 0.760 M
V2 = 0.250 L
---
M1 * V1 = M2 * V2
V1 = ( M2 * V2 ) / M1
V1 = ( 0.760 * 0.250 ) / 4.00
V1 = ( 0.190 ) / 4.00
V1 = 0.0475 L
Alka-seltzer is an effervescent antacid which neutralizes the acid of the stomach by generating CO2. The chemical formula of alka-seltzer is C16H17NaO14. In this case, if we are given the mass of the antacid used, then by stoichiometry, mass alka-seltzer * (1/ molar mass of alk-selz) * (1 mol Co2 / 1 mol alk-seltz) * (44 g/molCo2). That is how you get the mass of Co2 produced.
