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

If 11.9 kJ are used to heat a sample of water the temperature increases from 20.0°C to

Kipish [7]

Answer:

$m=4.51g$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the energy involved during a heating process is shown below:

$Q=mCp\Delta T$

Whereas the specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g°C), we can compute the heated mass of water by the addition of 11.9 kJ (11900 J) of heat as shown below:

$m=\frac{Q}{Cp\Delta T}$

Thus, by plugging in, we obtain:

$m=\frac{11900J}{4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}(650\°C-20.0\°C)}\\\\m=4.51g$

Best regards!
