Answer: <em>The </em><em>alkali metals</em><em> reactivity is generally higher than the alkaline earth metals. </em>
Explanation: <em>This makes the alkaline earth metals with their two valence electrons less reactive than alkali metals with their one valence electron.</em>
<u>Alkali metals is ns1 and alkaline earth metals is ns2</u>
Answer:
Uranium mines operate in many countries, but more than 85% of uranium is produced in six countries: Kazakhstan, Canada, Australia, Namibia, Niger, and Russia. Historically, conventional mines open pit or underground were the main source of uranium.

Answer:
is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
An oxidizing agent is an element in a reaction that accepts the electrons of another element. It is typically hydrogen, oxide, or any halogen. In this case, it is oxygen. The answer is 02.
Answer:
SiF4 is not a polar covalent bond.
Explanation:
SiF4 is a nonpolar molecule because the fluorine's are arranged around the central silicon atom in a tetrahedral molecule with all of the regions of negative charge cancelling each other out.
<h3>Answer:</h3>
Limiting reactant is Lithium
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>We are given;</u>
- Mass of Lithium as 1.50 g
- Mass of nitrogen is 1.50 g
We are required to determine the rate limiting reagent.
- First, we write the balanced equation for the reaction
6Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2Li₃N
From the equation, 6 moles of Lithium reacts with 1 mole of nitrogen.
- Second, we determine moles of Lithium and nitrogen given.
Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass
Moles of Lithium
Molar mass of Li = 6.941 g/mol
Moles of Li = 1.50 g ÷ 6.941 g/mol
= 0.216 moles
Moles of nitrogen gas
Molar mass of Nitrogen gas is 28.0 g/mol
Moles of nitrogen gas = 1.50 g ÷ 28.0 g/mol
= 0.054 moles
- According to the equation, 6 moles of Lithium reacts with 1 mole of nitrogen.
- Therefore, 0.216 moles of lithium will require 0.036 moles (0.216 moles ÷6) of nitrogen gas.
- On the other hand, 0.054 moles of nitrogen, would require 0.324 moles of Lithium.
Thus, Lithium is the limiting reagent while nitrogen is in excess.
