Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.

Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.

Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.

What is produced by a neutralization reaction between an arrhenius acid and an arrhenius base?
stepladder [879]

Answer: Salt and Water

Explanation:

An Arrhenius acid (HCl) can best be defined as any substance that when added to water increases the concentration of H+ ions.

While an Arrhenius base (KOH) is any substance that when added to water increases the concentration of OH- ions.

When an Arrhenius acid such as HCl reacts with an Arrhenius base such as KOH, the end products will be salt and water, in a process called Neutralization Reaction.

HCl (aq) + KOH (aq)  -------> KCl (aq) + H2O (l)

Will the water level of the sea increase when there is global warming
alexdok [17]
Global warming will cause see levels to rise since a lot of water is stored in ice sheets which will melt.  All of the melt water will end up in the ocean causing sea levels to rise.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

on dr v’s bookshelf there are 23 science textbooks each with an average of 31 chapters of each chapter contains 5 pages how many
olga55 [171]

Answer:

There are 3600 pages to 2 significant figures

Explanation:

Working only with the information given, we have that there are 23 books each with about 31 chapters.

This means that if 1 book has 31 chapter, the 23 science books will have

31 X 23 chapters =713 chapters in total.

If each chapter contains 5 pages, for the 713 chapters we will have a total of 713 X 5 pages = 3565 pages.

Rounding off the answer to 2 significant figures , we are looking to have only two non-zero figures in our answer. To do this, we count two numbers from the left. This will be numbers 3 and 5.

Next,  we check the net number after 5 to see if it is greater than 5 if it is, we will have to add the number (1 ) to the 5. This shows that we are approximating upwards, to account for the fact that that number has passed the middle point.

After this, we change the remaining two numbers (6 and 5) to zeroes.

This will give us 3600 pages.
