Answer:

2K   +   2H₂O   →   2KOH  + H₂

Explanation:

The reactants are:

    Potassium metal  = K

    Water  = H₂O

 The products are:

  Potassium hydroxide  = KOH

  Hydrogen gas  = H₂  

The reaction equation is given as;  

                Reactants   →   Products

        2K   +   2H₂O   →   2KOH  + H₂

The reaction is a single displacement reaction

Which of the following groups of elements are likely to have substances that have both metal and non-metallic properties?
Tom [10]

Answer : Group 14 elements are likely to have substances that have both metal and non-metallic properties.

Explanation :

Metalloid : It is a type of element whose properties lies in between the metals and non-metals.

There are commonly six metalloids : Boron(group 13), Silicon & Germanium(group 14), Arsenic & Antimony(group 15), Tellurium(group 16).

Properties of Metalloids :

  • Metalloids look like metals but behave largely like non-metals.
  • Metalloids are solid, brittle and lustrous.
  • Metalloids has ability to conduct electricity.

Therefore, Group 14 elements are likely to have substances that have both metal and non-metallic properties.

How many neutrons are in a typical silicon atom?<br> A. 15<br> B. 14<br> C. 28<br> D. 42
Aleksandr [31]
Silicon (Si) atomic mass is 28.085.
To find the mass number of most common isotope we need to round atomic mas to wholes.
28.085≈28 is atomic mass
Atomic number(number of protons) is an ordinal number of an element in the Periodic Table.
 For silicons it is 14.
Mass number=number of protons(atomic number)+number of neutrons.
Number of neutrons=Mass number - Number of Protons(atomic number)
Number of neutrons= 28 - 14 = 14

Correct answer is B.14
