The alkali metals all react with water. which is the most reactive metal?
1 answer:
Alkali Metals (Group 1) elements experience an increase in the vigour of their reaction in water as they go down the group (as the atomic number increase). As such the most reactive Alkali Metal would be FRANCIUM, which is at the base of Group One.
Quite frankly, you do not want Francium to react with water- that's a huge explosion on your hand.

The limiting reagent will be Al
<h3>What are limiting reagents?</h3>They are reagents that limit the quantity of products that are formed in reactions.
From the equation of the reaction:
The mole ratio of Al to O2 is 4:3.
With 2 moles of Al and 2 moles of O2, Al becomes limiting while O2 is in excess.
With 2 moles of O2, the amount of Al required should be:
2 x 4/3 = 2.67 moles.
With 2 moles of Al, the amount of O2 required should be:
2 x 3/4 = 1.5 moles
Thus, O2 is in excess by 0.5 moles.
