Answer: K and Na

Explanation:

Potassium and Sodium have a chemical symbol of K and Na respectively.

They have similar chemical properties because both

- have only one valence electron,

- form univalent positive ion when they donate their lone outermost electron as shown below

Na --> Na+ + e-

K --> K+ + e-

- are good reducing agents

- react with cold water vigorously to liberate hydrogen gas and form alkalis, so they are known as alkali metals.

- K and Na are placed in Group 1 of the periodic table.

Thus, unlike the other pairs given, K and Na, have the most similar chemical properties

Answer:

moles of ammonia produced = 0.28 moles

Explanation:

The reaction is

$N_{2}(g)+3H_{2}(g) --> 2NH_{3}(g)$

As per equation, one mole of nitrogen will react with three moles of hydrogen to give two moles of ammonia

So 0.140 moles of nitrogen will react with = 3 X 0.140 moles of Hydrogen

= 0.42 moles of hydrogen molecule.

this will give 2 X 0.140 moles of ammonia = 0.28 moles of ammonia

the moles of ammonia produced = 0.28 moles

Here the nitrogen is limiting reagent.

Answer:

Decantation

Explanation:

Decantation is one of the process of separating mixture containing solid and liquid. In this process, gravity plays a very important role. The solid part of the mixture is allowed to settle down. The liquid is removed and separated in another container. It is a process that helps in the purification of the liquid. The particles that are insoluble settles down and is further subject to be separated from the mixture.

Answer:

Explanation:

When you start to feel you are desiring more than just a casual friendship with your best friend and you’re not sure what to do next, let me offer you some advice that could strengthen both your relationship and your love for each other.

First, don’t rush into a romantic relationship with your best friend…many times people confuse love with that other kind of caring love you feel for all of your other friends.

Second, don’t spill your guts right away. You might feel like you have to share all your thoughts and feelings with the other person as soon as you start to feel something. That’s usually a mistake.
