Answer:

            Lithium

Explanation:

                  Alkali metals are group of metals which are present in first group of periodic table. As we know atomic number is equal to number of protons contained by a particular element. Therefore, the alkali metals along with there number of protons are listed below;

Alkali Metal                                         Number of Protons

Lithium                                                               3

Sodium                                                             11

Potassium                                                         19

Rubidium                                                         37

Cesium                                                             55

Francium                                                          87

Hence, it is cleared from above table that Lithium is having fewer protons than 10.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

For the reaction

C2H5OH (l) + 3 O2(g) = 2CO2(g) + 3 H2O

We can calculate the  standard molar enthalpy of combustion using the standard enthalpies of formation of the species involved in the reaction according to Hess law:

ΔHºc =  2ΔHºf CO2 (g) + 3ΔHºfH2O(l)  - ( ΔHºf C2H5OH (l) - 3ΔHºfO2 (g) )

( we were not give the water state but we know we are at standard conditions so it is in its liquid state )

The ΔHºfs can be found in appropiate reference or texts.

ΔHºc =  2ΔHºf CO2 (g)+ 3ΔHºfH2O(l)  - (  ΔHºf C2H5OH (l) -+3ΔHºfO2 (g) )

= [ 2 ( -393.52 ) + 3 ( -285.83 ) ] - [(  -276.2 + 0 ) ] kJ

ΔHºc =  -1368.33 kJ
