Why can’t you perform single displacement reactions with group IA metals?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer is: because alkaline metals (group IA metals) are the strongest reducing agents and most reactive metals.
Reducing agent is an element or compound that loses an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and they have been oxidized.
Alkaline metals tend to lose only one electron in redox reaction.

A solution of KCIO3 is prepared using 75 grams of the solute in enough water to make 0.250 liters of solution. The gram-formula

charle [14.2K]

Using the mass/volume percentage method for percentages of the solution, you simply divide the grams of solute by the volume of the solution and multiply by 100 to get your percentage.
(75.0g/250mL)•100 = 30.0% solute

If you weighed out 0.38 g of calcium and reacted it with an excess of hcl, how many moles of h2(g) would you expect to produce?

Hitman42 [59]

Answer is: 0,0095 mol of hydrogen gas will be produced in reaction.
Chemical reaction: Ca + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂.
m(Ca) = 0,38 g.
n(H₂) = ?
n(Ca) = m(Ca) ÷ M(Ca).
n(Ca) = 0,38 g ÷ 40 g/mol
n(Ca) = 0,0095 mol.
from reaction: n(Ca) : n(H₂) = 1 : 1.
n(H₂) = n(Ca) = 0,0095 mol.
n - amount of substance.

A small portion of a crystal lattice is sketched below. What is the name of the unit cell of this lattice? Your answer must be a

Nikolay [14]

This is an incomplete question, the given sketch is shown below.

Answer : The name of given unit cell is, FCC (face-centered cubic unit cell)

Explanation :

Unit cell : It is defined as the smallest 3-dimensional portion of a complete space lattice which when repeated over the and again in different directions produces the complete space lattice.

There are three types of unit cell.
