<u>Answer:</u> The true statement is iron can reduce Au^+(aq) to gold metal

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its chemical reaction.

The reactivity of metal is determined by a series known as reactivity series. The metals lying above in the series are more reactive than the metals which lie below in the series.

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

Metal A is more reactive than metal B.

We are given:

Iron can reduce copper, silver can reduce gold, sodium can reduce iron and copper can reduce silver metal.

The increasing order of reactivity thus follows:

Au

where, sodium is most reactive and gold is least reactive

For the given options:

<u>Option 1:</u>  Copper cannot easily reduce sodium ion to sodium metal because it is less reactive.

Cu(s)+Na^+(aq.)\rightarrow \text{ No reaction}

<u>Option 2:</u>  Iron cant easily reduce gold ion to gold metal because it is more reactive.

Fe(s)+3Au^+(aq.)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}(aq.)+3Au(s)

<u>Option 3:</u>  Silver cannot easily reduce iron ion to iron metal because it is less reactive.

Ag(s)+Fe^{3+}(aq.)\rightarrow \text{ No reaction}

Hence, the true statement is iron can reduce Au^+(aq) to gold metal

Calculate the mass ratio of S to O in SO, and then calculate the mass ratio of S to O in SO2, given that the mass of S is approx
ziro4ka [17]

Explanation:

From the knowledge of law of multiple proportions,

mass ratio of S to O in SO:

mass of S : mass of O

= 32 : 16

= 32/16

= 2/1

mass ratio of S to O in SO2:

= mass of S : 2 × mass of O

= 32 : 2 × 16

= 32/32

= 1/1

ratio of mass ratio of S to O in SO to mass ratio of S to O in SO2:

= 2/1 ÷ 1/1

= 2

Thus, the S to O mass ratio in SO is twice the S to O mass ratio in SO2.
