Answer:

E. It could be stretched into a thin wire.

Explanation:

Metals are malleable. This means that they can be hammered or pressed into different shapes without braking. They are also ductile, which means that they can be drawn out into thin wires without braking.

Aluminium belongs to 13th group of periodic table. It undergoes oxidation to given Al^+3 .

It is observed that when aluminium is added to a solution of copper sulphate the colour of the solution changes from blue to grey. It is due to formation of grey coloured solution of aluminium sulphate as

2Al^+3 + 3SO4^-2 ---> Al2(SO4)3

Sodium hydroxide reacts with aluminum and water to produce hydrogen gas: 2 Al(s) + 2 NaOH(aq) + 6 H2O(l) → 2 NaAl(OH)4(aq) + 3 H

lianna [129]

Answer:

The mass of hydrogen gas formed is 0.205 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of 1.83 grams of Al

Mass of NaOH = 4.30 grams

Molar mass of Al = 26.98 g/mol

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation:

2 Al(s) + 2 NaOH(aq) + 6 H2O(l) → 2 NaAl(OH)4(aq) + 3 H2(g)

Step 3: Calculate moles of Al

Moles Al = mass Al / Molar mass Al

Moles Al = 1.83 grams / 26.98 g/mol

Moles Al = 0.0678 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of NaOH

Moles NaOH = 4.30 grams / 40 g/mol

Moles NaOH = 0.1075 moles

Step 5: Calculate limiting reactant

For 2 moles of Al, we need 2 moles of NaOH

Aluminium is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed ( 0.0678 moles)

NaOH is in excess. There will react 0.0678 moles

There will remain 0.1075 - 0.0678 = 0.0397 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles of hydrogen

For 2 moles of Al, we need 2 moles of NaOH, to produce 3 moles of hydrogen

For 0.0678 moles of Al, there is produced 0.0678 *3/2 = 0.1017 moles of H2

Step 7: Calculate mass of H2

Mass of H2 = Moles H2 * Molar mass of H2

Mass of H2 = 0.1017 moles * 2.02 g/mol

Mass of H2 = 0.205 grams

The mass of hydrogen gas formed is 0.205 grams
