Answer is: because alkaline metals (group IA metals) are the strongest reducing agents and most reactive metals.
Reducing agent<span> is an element or compound that loses an </span>electron<span> to another </span>chemical species<span> in a </span>redox <span>chemical reaction and they have been oxidized.
Alkaline metals tend to lose only one electron in redox reaction.</span>
Answer is 14.5 g L⁻¹.
<em>Explanation;</em>
Here, the question says reduce the units as one.
The presented units are g/L. To reduce the units to one, what we can do is take L to the upper side.
This can be done according to the rules of indices;
1 / aˣ = a⁻ˣ
Like that, we can write 1 / L as L⁻¹.
Hence, the reduced unit is g L⁻¹.
But remember to keep a space between when writing two different units.
Actually, this is an unit for density.
CaCO3 + 2KCL ⇒ CaCl2 + K2CO3
It is balanced as so based on the charges given on the periodic table and polyatomic ions.
Calcium has the charge of 2 but CO3 also shares the same charge, thus cancelling that out.
Potassium has a charge of 1 while Chlorine also shares a charge of 1, also cancelling it out.
Thus, if it performs a double replacement reaction, they would take these charges to the new elements that do not cancel out their charges.
Therefore, we need the coefficient of 2 in front of Potassium Chloride in order to balance the equation as on the products side of the equation, Potassium and Chlorine both have a subscript of 2.
Hope this helps!
Yes. it could kill someone because they are designed to take the oxygen out of the atmosphere to put out a fire, You can kill a person by suffixation, You can purchase a unit that gives off a harmless vapor that resembles white smoke though.
