Each element is diffrent than another element
The alkali metals are so reactive that they are never found in nature in elemental form. Although some of their ores are abundant, isolating them from their ores is somewhat difficult. For these reasons, the group 1 elements were unknown until the early 19th century, when Sir Humphry Davy first prepared sodium (Na) and potassium (K) by passing an electric current through molten alkalis. (The ashes produced by the combustion of wood are largely composed of potassium and sodium carbonate.) Lithium (Li) was discovered 10 years later when the Swedish chemist Johan Arfwedson was studying the composition of a new Brazilian mineral. Cesium (Cs) and rubidium (Rb) were not discovered until the 1860s, when Robert Bunsen conducted a systematic search for new elements. Known to chemistry students as the inventor of the Bunsen burner, Bunsen’s spectroscopic studies of ores showed sky blue and deep red emission lines that he attributed to two new elements, Cs and Rb, respectively. Francium (Fr) is found in only trace amounts in nature, so our knowledge of its chemistry is limited. All the isotopes of Fr have very short half-lives, in contrast to the other elements in group 1.

Explanation:
The w/v concentration is obtained from, mass/volume. Hence;
%w/v= 50/1000= 5%
In the %w/w we have;
25g/100 g = 25% w/w
In combustion reaction, energy is given out hence it is exothermic.
Neutralization reaction yields a salt and water
% by mass of carbon is obtained from;
8× 12/114 × 100 = 84.1%
All the ionic substances mentioned have very low solubility in water.
One mole of a substance contains the Avogadro's number of each atom in the compound.
There are two iron atoms so one mole contains 2× 55.85 g of iron.
Some sulphates such as BaSO4 are insoluble in water.
Halides are soluble in water hence NaI is soluble in water.
The equation does not balance with the given coefficients because the number of atoms of each element on both sides differ.
The equation represents a decomposition of calcium carbonate as written.
Answer:
Explanation:
The nitrates of Bi,Sn and Cd is ruled out because their sulfides are insoluble in acidic medium.
Nitrates of Ni or Co may be present because their sulfides are insoluble in basic medium. The presence of other nitrates are ruled out.
Answer:
to identify the element by using flame tests
