Answer:

B: They are highly reactive

Explanation:

Sodium(Na) and potassium(K) are in the same family/group which is the Alkali Metal group. These groups have their ability to displace H2(g) from water and create a basic solution. Alkali metals are also known to react violently and explosively with water. This is because enough heat is given off during the exothermic reaction to ignite the H2(g). Therefore, they are similar because of their reactivity.

A solution of phosphoric acid was made by dissolving 10.0 g of H3PO4 in 100.0 mL of water. The resulting volume was 113 mL. Calc

rodikova [14]

Explanation:

Mass of solute = 10.0 g

mass of solvent(water) = m

Volume of solvent( water) = v = 100.0 mL

Density of water= d = $1 g/cm^3=1 g/mL$

$1 mL= 1 cm^3$

$m=d\times v=1.0 g/mL\times 100.0 = 100.0 g$

Mass of solution(M) = Mass of solute + mass of solvent

M = 10.0 g + 100.0 g = 110.0 g

Volume of the solution = V = 113 mL

Density of the solution = D

$D=\frac{M}{V}=\frac{110.0 g}{113 mL}=0.9734 g/mL$

The density of the solution is 0.9734 g/ml.

Moles of phosphoric acid = $n_1=\frac{10.0 g}{98 g/mol}=0.1020 mol$

Moles of water = $n_2=\frac{100.0 g}{18g/mol}=5.556 mol$

Mole fraction of phosphoric acid = $\chi_1$

$\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{0.1020 mol}{0.1020 mol+5.556 mol}$

$\chi_1=0.01803$

Mole fraction of water = $\chi_2$

$\chi_2=\frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{5.556 mol}{0.1020 mol+5.556 mol}$

$\chi_2=0.9820$

$[Molarity]=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution(L)}}$

Moles of phosphoric acid = 0.1020 mol

Volume of the solution = V = 113 mL = 0.113 L ( 1 mL = 0.001 L)

Molarity of the solution :

$=\frac{0.1020 mol}{0.113 L}=0.903 M$

$[Molality]=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Mass of solvent(kg)}}$

Moles of phosphoric acid = 0.1020 mol

Mass of solvent(water) = m =100.0 g = 0.100 kg ( 1 g = 0.001 kg)

Molality of the solution :

$=\frac{0.1020 mol}{0.100 kg}=1.02 mol/kg$

Why are metals alloyed?

Lady_Fox [76]

Because alloys have qualities that are preferable to pure metals, almost all metals are utilised as alloys—that is, mixes of several elements. Alloying is done for a variety of purposes, the most common of which are to increase strength, corrosion resistance, or cost savings.
