Answer:
When nitric acid combine with sodium hydroxide the salt formed is called sodium nitrate. option B
Explanation:
It is the strong acid strong base reaction. When acid and base react with each other salt and water are formed.
In given reaction nitric acid combine with sodium hydroxide base and form sodium nitrate salt and water.
Chemical equation:
HNO₃(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaNO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)
Ionic equation:
H⁺NO₃⁻(aq) + Na⁺OH⁻(aq) → Na⁺NO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l)
Net ionic equation:
H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) → H₂O(l)
The Na⁺(aq) and NO₃⁻(aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The water can not be splitted into ions because it is present in liquid form.
Spectator ions:
These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.
<span>The purpose of washing the product with NaOH is simply to
neutralize any acid which remained or leaked after the 1st initial
separation. The NaOH base reacts with the acid to form neutralization reaction products
which are soluble in water.</span>
Answer is: a. Rubidium (Rb) is more reactive than strontium (Sr) because strontium atoms must lose more electrons.
The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).
Alkaline metals (group 1), in this example rubidium, have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron), they are most reactive metals.
Earth alkaline metals (group 2), in this example strontium, have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons, they are less reactive.
Rubidium electron configuration: ₃₇Rb 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶5s¹; one valence electron is 5s¹ orbital.
Strontium electron configuration: ₃₈Sr 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁶5s²; two valence electrons is 5s² orbital.
1. neutron
2. proton which is positive
3. electron which is negative
