Answer:
Adding or removing energy from matter causes a physical change as matter moves from one state to another. For example, adding thermal energy (heat) to liquid water causes it to become steam or vapor (a gas). And removing energy from liquid water causes it to become ice (a solid).
The reaction, Fe2O3 + 3CO------> 2Fe + 3CO2 is an oxidation-reduction reaction.
An oxidation-reduction reaction is a reaction in which there is a change in oxidation number from left to right in the reaction. This is because, a specie is oxidized and another specie is reduced.
In the reaction; Fe2O3 + 3CO------> 2Fe + 3CO2, we can see that the oxidation number of iron decreased from +3 on the left hand side to zero on the right hand side. The oxidation number of carbon was increased from + 2 to +4.

Explanation:
As the charge of all electrons are equal, the repulsive force exerted by each of them is also going to be equal. So, as K has more electrons repulsing its valence electron than Na, it has greater electron shielding.
