Reaction of sodium with water
Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). The resulting solution is basic because of the dissolved hydroxide. The reaction is exothermic. During the reaction, the sodium metal may well become so hot that it catches fire and burns with a characteristic orange colour. The reaction is slower than that of potassium (immediately below sodium in the periodic table), but faster than that of lithium (immediately above sodium in the periodic table).
2Na(s) + 2H2O → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
one substance becomes two new substances
combustion is when you burn something in presence e of oxygen and the products will be mainly the CO2 and H2O
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
0.90J/g°C
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
We are given:
Mass of Aluminium = 10 g
Quantity of heat = 677 Joules
Change in temperature = 125°C - 50°C
= 75°C
We are required to calculate the specific heat capacity of Aluminium
But, Quantity of heat = Mass × specific heat × Change in temperature
Q = mcΔt
Rearranging the formula;
c = Q ÷ mΔt
= 677 J ÷ (10 g × 75°C)
= 677 J ÷ 750g°C
= 0.903 J/g°C
= 0.90J/g°C
Thus, the specific heat capacity of Aluminium is 0.90J/g°C
<span>Avogadro's number.
1 mole of any substance, molecule or element is equal to a certain amount of atom.
6.022 x 10^23 is the Avogradro's constant.
Magnesium Oxide is a compound. therefore if you have 30.3 g of it (1 mol), it will have the same number of atoms.
34.69 moles of MgO has 208.9 x 10^23 number of atoms.
2.089 x 10^25 is also a correct answer.</span><span>
