An element which is highly conductive, highly reactive, soft, and lustrous is most likely an alkali metal.
Alkali metals are in group 1 of the Periodic table which means that they have only a single valence electron.
This causes them to be soft and highly reactive because:
- The single valance electron leads to weak bonds amongst the element's atoms which makes them soft
- The elements want to lose the single valance electron so as to become stable so they will react with other elements to give away the electron.
Examples of alkali electrons include:
- Lithium
- Sodium
- Potassium etc
In conclusion therefore, alkali metals are highly reactive and soft and so the element described above is most likely an alkali metal.

The correct answer is definitely C.
There are less than 16 valence electrons in 2 chlorine atoms, but they form a stable bond because a covalent bond should involve <span>a pair of electrons between atoms in a molecule. I thing it's pretty clear. Regards!</span>
Work = force x distance
You can see time doesn’t matter (if we were talking about power, which is the RATE at which work is performed, that would be a different story).
W = 2 x 5 = 10 foot-pounds of work
Foot-pounds are gross units. Better to work in SI units when you can!

Explanation:
Pressure is the same for both plungers.
P = P
F / A = F / A
F / (¼ π d²) = F / (¼ π d²)
F / d² = F / d²
5 N / (0.05 m)² = F / (1 m)²
F = 2000 N
None of the options are correct.
