Balanced chemical reaction: 2K(s) + 2H₂O(l) → 2KOH(aq) + H₂(g).
KOH is inorganic compound p<span>otassium hydroxide, a strong base.
H</span>₂ is hydrogen gas.
In balanced chemical reaction number of atoms on both side of chemical reaction must be same. There are two potassium atoms, four hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms on both side of reaction.
This question is asking for an element with 5 valence electrons. Just go to the row it is in (excluding transition metals) and count over.
The answer would be c. P
Answer: D) The effect of gravity on an object
Explanation: We're not talking about mass, we're talking about weight. Weight is measured by the force of gravity on a object. For examples, you might be 100 pounds on Earth but 12 pounds on the moon.
The empirical formula :
C₁₀H₁₆N₄SO₇

Given
6.4 g sample
Required
The empirical formula
Solution
mass C :
= 12/44 x 8.37 g
= 2.28
mass H :
= 2/18 x 2.75 g
= 0.305
mass N = 1.06
mass S :
= 32/64 x 1.23
= 0.615
mass O = 6.4 - (2.28+0.305+1.06+0.615) = 2.14 g
Mol ratio :
= C : H : N : S : O
= 2.28/12 : 0.305/1 : 1.06/14 : 0.615/32 : 2.14/16
= 0.19 : 0.305 : 0.076 : 0.019 : 0.133 divided by 0.019
= 10 : 16 : 4 : 1 : 7
The empirical formula :
C₁₀H₁₆N₄SO₇
With a physical change you can actually see it change like ice turning into water, then with a chemical change you can't see it change, although within the molecules themselves they change which makes that possible.
Hope this helps!
