Answer:
Explanation:
The period law state that when elements are listed in order of their atomic numbers, the elements fall into recurring groups, so that there is a recurrence of similar properties at regular intervals.
Na and K in the periodic table fall into the same group, this is because they both have one electrons in their outermost shell.
Na 11 -1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1
K 19 - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1
They share similar chemical and physical properties. Na and K are very reactive metals, they can loose/donate their outermost electron to non metals in other to attain stable octet state.
The form ionic compound when they react with non metals.

Answer:
Ammonia gas(an alkaline gas with characteristics of choking or irritating smell) is not liberated when 6mole of HCl is added to the solution instead of 6mole of NaOH, to test for the presence of ammonium ion in the solution
Explanation:
As expected, when testing for ammonium ion in a solution (precisely ammonium salt solution), Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) is required as the test reagent.
When NaOH is added to the solution, A gas with characteristics of choking or irritating smell is liberated.
This gas turn red litmus paper blue.
This liberated gas is an alkaline gas, which is confirmed as an ammonia gas(NH3).
If HCl is added instead of NaOH, the ammonia gas will not be liberated, which indicates that the test reagent used is wrong.
Answer:
See below.
Explanation:
a. The pH would decrease.
b. An acid.
c. The pH would increase.
d. A base. More accurately an alkali ( which is a soluble base).
