The chemical description of water is H2O, which means, it is composed of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. The answer to this item is the fourth option, " It is clear and colorless." When water is added with calcium, clear, colorless bubbles are formed. This explains a reaction of water with acid. The following are additional facts about water properties: Density: 1 g/cm³ Boiling point: 100 °C Molar mass: 18.01528 g/mol Melting point: 0 °C Formula: H2O

Answer: first option, It reacts with sodium metal.

Explanation:

Chemical properties are those manifested only as part of a chemical reaction, which means that the composition of the molecules of water will change: some chemical bonds are broken and others are formed, transforming some pure substances (elements, like sodium, or compounds, like water) into one or more different pure substances.

Water has the ability to react with sodium metal for form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, according to this reaction:

Na(s) + H₂O (l) → NaOH (aq) + H₂ (g).

The products formed have different composition and different physical and chemical properties than the reactants from which they originated from. This is what a chemical change means.

2) On the other hand, the melting point of 0°C, the density of about 1 g/mL, and that it is clear and colorless, are all physical properties, because they can be assesed without changing the composition of water.

How do you calculate the number of valence electrons in an atom?

gavmur [86]

To find the valence electrons in an atom, identify what group the element is in. An element in group 1A has 1 valence electron. For example, Li is in group 1A, so that means it has one valence electron. If the element is in group 2A, then it has two valence electrons.

Formulae for calculating number of moles

Tresset [83]

You would use this number, 6.02×1023 (Avogadro's number) to convert from particles, atoms, or molecules to moles. Whenever you go to the mole, divide by Avogadro's number. When you go to the unit from moles, multiply by Avogadro's number.

What is the halogen in period 5?? it has six letters

Misha Larkins [42]

Simple,

take a look at your periodic table, if you have it labeled look at the Halogen

Group, it includes: Flourine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, and Astatine.

Now, a period on the periodic table is read from left to right, and goes

down the rows of the periodic table.

Go to Period 5, go all the way to the Halogens, what is there?

Iodine.

Thus, your answer.

What does chemical reaction describe

Flauer [41]

A chemical reaction (signs)

- rusting
- change in base of chemical
- for example lets say u mix two chemicals, and then it becomes a different new chemical (it changed from the inside)

a physical

- a physical reaction is outer looks not inside.
- it changes on the outside, like changing a color
