Atomic number is same as the number of protons in the element which is further equal to the number of electrons. As the number of electrons increases in the element, the atomic number of the element also increases.
In periodic table, elements are arranged in the groups, and these groups are columns starting from 1 to 18, elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number. Elements are placed with difference of one atomic number.
First four elements present in the periodic table is:
atomic number is one (1).
atomic number is two (2).
atomic number is three (3).
atomic number is four (4).
Thus, the series of atomic numbers that represents the ordering of consecutive elements within the periodic table is the last option - 1, 2, 3, 4...
The second option only.
- LiOH, Li₂SO₄.
A base neutralizes an acid when the two reacts to produce water and a salt.
Sulfuric acid H₂SO₄ is the acid here. There are more than one classes of bases that can neutralize H₂SO₄. Among the options, there are:
Metal hydroxides
- Ca(OH)₂ and
- LiOH.
Metal hydroxides react with sulfuric acid to produce water and the sulfate salt of the metal.
.
The formula for calcium sulfate in option A is spelled incorrectly. Why? The charge on each calcium
is +2. The charge on each sulfate ion
is -2. Unlike
ions, it takes only one
ion to balance the charge on each
ion. As a result,
and
ions in calcium sulfate exist on a 1:1 ratio.
.
Ammonia, NH₃
Ammonia NH₃ can also act as a base and neutralize acids. NH₃ exists as NH₄OH in water:
.
The ion acts like a metal cation. Similarly to the metal hydroxides, NH₃ (or NH₄OH) neutralizes H₂SO₄ to produce water and a salt:
.
The formula of the salt (NH₄)₂SO₄ in the fourth option spelled the ammonium ion incorrectly.
As part of the salt (NH₄)₂SO₄, the ammonium ion NH₄⁺ is one of the products of this reaction and can't neutralize H₂SO₄ any further.
