Why are alkali metals more reactive than alkaline earth metals?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Neko [114]3 years ago
5 0
A: It takes more energy to remove two valence electrons from an atom than one valence electron. This makes alkaline Earth metals with their two valence electrons less reactive than alkali metals with their one valence electron.

Ordinary water boils at 100°C. Can it be made to boil at 95°C or 105°C.​
slava [35]

It can be done. Normally the boiling point of water is 100°C. It will boil at temperature greater than 100°C more quickly. Water can be boiled at 95°C but for that the atmospheric pressure of the water should be decreased which will decrease the boiling point of water.

<h3>Concept :</h3>

To boil water at 95°C, decrease the atmospheric pressure.

At 105°C, the water will be boiling quickly than normal at 100°C.

Tatiana [17]

Answer: During winter the Northern Hemisphere leans away from the sun, there are fewer daylight hours and the sun hits us at an angle. This makes it appear lower in the sky. In equatorial regions the length of days and the directness of sunlight don't change as much.

Hope this helps :)

When a student chemist transferred the metal to the calorimeter, some water splashed out of the calorimeter. will this technique
Natalka [10]

Answer:

It will be reported too low.

Explanation:

To measure the specific heat of the metal (s), the calorimeter may be used. In it, the metal will exchange heat with the water, and they will reach thermal equilibrium. Because it can be considered an isolated system (there're aren't dissipations) the total amount of heat (lost by metal + gained by water) must be 0.

Qmetal + Qwater = 0

Qmetal = -Qwater

The heat is the mass multiplied by the specific heat multiplied by the temperature change. If c is the specific heat of the water:

m_metal*s*ΔT_metal = - m_water *c*ΔT_water

s = -m_water *c*ΔT_water / m_metal*ΔT_metal

So, if m_water is now less than it was supposed to be, s will be reported too low, because they are directly proportional.

Putting rock salt on the roads during a snowstorm is an example of: A. Boiling point elevation B. Vapor pressure raising C. Vapo
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The correct answer is - D. Freezing point depression.

Explanation:

When rock salt is spread over snow-covered icy roads, it generates a liquid layer over it by melting from the surface thereby lowering or depression in the freezing point below the ice.

Therefore, due to this liquid layer comes into the contact with the ice present on the road and causes other ice to melts. This keeps on decreasing the volume of the ice on the road therefore, rock salts spread on the roads during a snowstorm.
