Answer:
Products are stearate anion and water.
Explanation:
Stearic acid is a 18-carbon chain molecule containing -COOH group. IUPAC name of stearic acid is octadecanoic acid.
Molecular formula of stearic acid is
.
When
is added into stearic acid,
removes a proton (
) from acidic -COOH group and forms stearate anion and water as products.
The balanced acid-base reaction is given as:

Structure of products are given below.
Answer:
Most similar - Lithium
Least similar - Phosphorus
Explanation:
Rubidium is an element in group 1A of the periodic table. It is a metal and forms an ionic compound with chlorine. The formula of the compound is RbCl.
If we look at the options, Lithium is also a group 1A element and forms an ionic compound with chlorine having the formula LiCl which is very much similar to RbCl chemically.
Phosphorus is a nonmetal. Its compounds with chlorine, PCl3 and PCl5 are covalent and does not resemble RbCl in any way.
To determine the mass of gold, we simply multiply the density and volume. Density is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume, such as m3. Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. We do as follows:
mass = density x volume
mass = 19.3 g/cm^3 ( 16.0 cm^3 )
mass = 308.8 g
