Alkali metals (situated far away from transitional metals and noble gases) are the most reactive elemental group. Cesium is second from the bottom of this group, with 6 electron shells, so it fits all the characteristics of a reactive atom, therefore making it the most reactive element.

Answer:

Fluorine is identified as the most reactive nonmetal and the most electro-negative element in the periodic table, making it the strongest oxidizing agent. Caesium is the most reactive metal in the periodic table, so much that working with this metal often ends in explosions!

Hydrogen is a very reactive gas, and the alkali metals are even more reactive. In fact, they are the most reactive metals and, along with the elements in group 17, are the most reactive of all elements.

Hope that helps.

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer : The total mass of oxygen gas released in the reaction will be, 12.8 grams

Explanation :

Law of conservation of mass : It states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

2MgO\rightarrow 2Mg+O_2

According to the law of conservation of mass,

Total mass of reactant side = Total mass of product side

Total mass of 2MgO = Total mass of 2Mg+O_2

or,

Total mass of 2MgO = Mass of 2Mg  + Mass of O_2

As we are given :

Total mass of MgO = 16.12 grams

The mass of Mg = 9.72 grams

So,

Total mass of 2MgO = Mass of 2Mg  + Mass of O_2

2\times 16.12g=2\times 9.72g+\text{Mass of }O_2

\text{Mass of }O_2=32.24g-19.44g=12.8g

Therefore, the total mass of oxygen gas released in the reaction will be, 12.8 grams

In response to action potentials arriving along the transverse tubules, the sarcoplasmic reticulum releasesA) acetylcholine.B) s
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Calcium ions.

Explanation:

The generation of the action potential helps in the transfer of information to the different body parts. This potential occurs to the difference in membrane potential inside and outside of the cell.

The sarcoplasmic reticulum is the homologous to the endoplasmic reticulum of the cells. The sarcoplasmic reticulum contains calcium ions in it and releases the stored calcium ions on the generation of the action potential. This calcium ion is important for the action of the actin and myosin.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
