Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals are the species which have excess of electrons. Metals are placed from left side to more than middle side of the periodic table.

Some properties of metals are as follows.

  • Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
  • They are malleable and ductile i.e, they can be drawn into thin sheets and wires.
  • They are lustrous in appearance.
  • Metals generally have high melting point.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, characteristic they are malleable is typical of metals.

How many grams are in 2.30 x 10^23 atoms in Na?
aksik [14]

There are 8.786 g

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The mole is the number of particles contained in a substance

1 mol = 6.02.10²³

2.30 x 10²³ atoms in Na :

\tt mol=\dfrac{2.3\times 10^{23}}{6.02\times 10^{23}}=0.382

mass :

\tt mass=mol\times Ar~Na\\\\mass=0.382\times 23=8.786~g

Acetic acid, CH3CO2H, reacts with ethanol, C2H5OH, to form water and ethyl acetate, CH3CO2C2H5. The equilibrium constant for thi
Irina-Kira [14]

Explanation:

The initial concentrations for a mixture :

Acetic acid at equilibrium = 0.15 M

Ethanol at equilibrium = 0.15 M

Ethyl acetate at equilibrium = 0.40 M

Water at equilibrium = 0.40 M

CH3COOH + C_2H_5OH\rightleftharpoons CH_3CO_2C_2H_5+H_2O

Initially:

0.15 M            0.15 M            0.40 M   0.40 M

At equilibrium

(0.15-x)M       (0.15-x) M     (0.40+x) M   (0.40+x) M

The equilibrium constant is given by expression

K_c=\frac{[CH_3CO_2C_2H_5][H_2O]}{[CH_3COOH][C_2H_5OH]}

4.0=\frac{(0.40-x)\times (0.40-x)}{(0.15+x)\times (0.15+x)}

Solving for x:

x = 0.0333

The equilibrium concentrations for a mixture :

Acetic acid at equilibrium = (0.15-x)M = (0.15-0.033) M = 0.117 M

Ethanol at equilibrium = (0.15-x)M = (0.15-0.033) M = 0.117 M

Ethyl acetate at equilibrium = (0.40+x)M = (0.40+0.033) M = 0.433 M

Water at equilibrium = (0.40+x)M = (0.40+0.033) M = 0.433 M

Sodium metal and water react to form hydrogen and sodium hydroxide. If 1.99 g of sodium react with water to form 0.087 g of hydr
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

1.56 g of water was involved in the reaction

Explanation:

From the stoichiometric equation

2Na + 2H2O = 2NaOH + H2

NB : Mm Na= 23, Mm H2O = ( 2+16)= 18

2(23) of Na requires 2(18) of water

Hence 1.99g of Na will require 1.99×2×18/2(23) of water = 1.56 g of water
