Answer:
Li(s) + H2O(l) -----> LiOH(aq) + H2(g)
Ca(s) + 2H2O(l) ---------------> Ca(OH)2(aq) + H2(g)
Explanation:
Metals react with water to yield the metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas as shown in the answer above.
The reaction equations were balanced, the number of atoms of each element on both side of the reaction equation is exactly the same.
This is the way to write a balanced reaction equation for the species shown in the question.
Sodium Chloride is a example of a ionic bond one atom is positively charged while the other is negatively charged both end up becoming neutral charge after they bond. check my answer to make sure that statement is accurate.
To answer this problem, we need to count the electrons in the given configuration. The complete configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6. There are 2+2+6+2+6 equal to 18 electrons. We find next the element with an atomic number of 18. That element is noble gas argon.
You can explain it by doing an experiment based or about density column.
