Answer:

- They are highly reactive metals

- They have low electro negativity

- They have low ionization energy

- They don't exist alone in nature

- They have low densities

Explanation:

Alkali metals are the elements in group 1 of the periodic table. They include Sodium, Lithium, Potassium e.t.c.

Due to the fact they have one atom in their outermost shell, they are very unstable because they easily react with other elements and are therefore don't exist alone in nature but combined with other elements for this same reason.

Since alkali metals don't easily attract other elements due to it's lone pair in the outer most shell, it can be said to have low electro negativity.

Also, they don't need energy to discharge their electrons since they are highly reactive due to their lone pair in the outermost shell and so we say they have low ionization energy.

Due to this reason, they also have low densities.

A chemist wants to observe the following reaction:
stiv31 [10]

It take more energy to break the bonds of the reactants and less energy is given off when the product bonds are formed.

<h3>What is Energy?</h3>

Energy is defined as the ability to do work. Work is done in the breaking or formation of bonds.

The standard Enthalpy (ΔH) of water which was formed in the given reaction is negative.

ΔH= Δproduct - Δreactant

This means that the energy to break the bonds of the reactants is more.

In which of the following types of solution is the rate of dissociation equal to the rate of crystallization? Concentrated Super
Butoxors [25]

In a <u>Saturated </u>solution, the rate of dissociation equal to the rate of crystallization

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one than cannot dissolve any more solute because the solutes inter-molecular spaces are filled with the solute molecules at that temperature. When an attempt is made to dissolve more solute into the solution, the rate at which the solute is dissolved into the solution is equal to the rate at which excess solute is precipitated and crystallized.

Give the formula of each coordination compound. Include square brackets around the coordination complex. Do not include the oxid
rodikova [14]

Answer:

sodium hexachloroplatinate(IV)- Na2[PtCl6]

dibromobis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) bromide- [Co(en)2Br2]Br

pentaamminechlorochromium(III) chloride-[Cr(NH3)5Cl]Cl2

Explanation:

The formulas of the various coordination compounds can be written from their names taking cognisance of the metal oxidation state as shown above. The oxidation state of the metal will determine the number of counter ions present in the coordination compound.

The number ligands are shown by subscripts attached to the ligand symbols. Remember that bidentate ligands such as ethylenediamine bonds to the central metal ion via two donors.
