B - two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom
The metal is sodium, Na.
<u>Explanation:</u>
K₂O is an ionic compound in which K is in the oxidation state of +1 and it belongs to group 1.
Group 1 elements also form oxides with the metals with the general formula M₂O and M being Na, K, Li and so on.
Metals Like sodium and Potassium are so brittle in nature and also their oxides.
So the other metal that form metal oxide which is brittle as well as ionic in nature, and so the metal oxide is Na₂O.
So the metal is sodium, Na.
The answer is
<span>2PbS(s) + 3O2(g) = 2PbO(s) + 2SO2(g)
Your answer is not yet balanced because you have 3 oxygen atoms. it should be balanced by multiplying both side by 2 such as the balanced equation I made. To check it, I will explain why your answer is not yet balanced.
check: (from your equation)
</span> 1-Pb-1
1-S-1
2 -O-3
the difference between the reactant and the product of Oxygen will prove that it is not yet balanced.
If you use 2PbS(s) + 3O2(g) = 2PbO(s) + 2SO2(g), to check it:
2-Pb-2
2-S-2
6 -O-6
then this is now balance
326000 mm is incorrect as it is either the one in cm or mm. cm aligns with m so it must be mm
