A sodium atom forms NA+1 ion by losing two electrons
Depends if it desolved with the water or not
The atmosphere provides C02 for us, it protects us from the Sun's UV rays, it protects us from many objects in space that could crash into earth without it, and it holds the moisture in the air.
To yield an alcohol from an alkane, one reaction could be from alkyl halide through hydrolysis reaction. The alkyl halide should be pentyl chloride. When you add water to it, the OH⁻ ion will replace Cl to make 1-pentanol, while the Cl⁻ ion binds with H⁺ to form HCl. The main product is pentanol, while the by-product is HCl.
Ok thanks for the valuble info.
