A metal hydroxide has the formula MOH, where M is a Group 1 metal.
A student dissolves 5.61 g of MOH in water to make 1.00 dm3\mathrm{dm^{3}}dm3 of solution.
25.0 cm3\mathrm{cm^{3}}cm3 of this solution is exactly neutralised by 20.00 cm3\mathrm{cm^{3}}cm3 of 0.125 mol/dm3\mathrm{mol/dm^{3}}mol/dm3 hydrochloric acid.
MOH+HCl→MCl+H2O \mathrm{MOH + HCl \rightarrow MCl + H_{2}O} MOH+HCl→MCl+H2ORelative atomic mass (ArA_rAr): H = 1.0 Li = 6.9 O = 16.0 Na = 23.0 K = 39.1 Rb = 85.5
What is metal M?
Lithium
Sodium
Potassium
Rubidium
