Question
Atomic number of metal ‚A‛ is 11, while atomic number of metal ‚B‛ is 20. Which of them will be more reactive? Write the chemical reaction of dilute HCl with metal ‚A‛.
Solution
Metal ‘A’ is more reactive than metal ‘B’.
Atomic number of metal ‘A’ is 11, hence it is Na.
`2Na + 2HCI → 2NaCI(aq) + H_2 (g) `
