Why does alkali elements react vigorously with water?

Chemistry
1 answer:
HACTEHA [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Because the alkali metal is really willing to give up its electron much more so than Hydrogen.

The redox reaction looks like this

K ===> K+   +    1 e-    The reduction vo is very high which means that the K really does want to give up that electron.

2H+  +2e- ====> H2  The oxidation vo is almost 0 but the Hydrogen is the perfect recipient for the 2 electrons.

How many grams of carbon dioxide will form if 5.5 g of C3H8 burns in 15 g of O2?
mr Goodwill [35]
C3H8+3O2--->3CO2+8H
Therefore for every 1:3 there are 3 Carbon dioxides that form. That means find the limiting reactant from the two reactants.
5.5g(1mole C3H8/44.03g of C3H8)=0.1249 moled of C3H8 and if for every one C3H8 we can form three CO2. We can assume 0.3747 miles of CO2 will be produced.
15g of O2(1 mole O2/32g of O2)=0.4685moles O2 and if for every three O2 we can produce three CO2 we may assume a 1:1 ratio.
This means C3H8 will be your limiting reactant. Therefore 0.3747 moles of CO2 will be produced.
0.3747 moles of CO2(48.01 g of CO2/1 mole of CO2)= 17.99 grams of CO2

What is one danger associated with blizzards
notka56 [123]
One danger associated with blizzards is that blizzards are severe winter storms that pack a combination of blowing snow and wind resulting in very low visibilities. While heavy snowfalls and severe cold often accompany blizzards, they are not required. Sometimes strong winds pick up snow that has already fallen, creating a blizzard.

I hope this helps.
