A Correct answer
Explanation

Reaction of 'Na' with cold water. 

$ 2Na+H _{2}O\rightarrow Na _{2}O+H _{2} \uparrow $
               The reaction stops with forming $ Na _{2}O $ . Because, we used cold water. The reaction doesnt continue to form NaOH.

Which of the following is added to remove permanent hardness of water?

  1. baking soda

  2. blue vitriol

  3. washing soda

  4. milk of magnesia

Sodium hydroxide in water gives

  1. yellow color solution.

  2. green color solution.

  3. colorless solution.

  4. light pink solution.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Sodium hydroxide in water gives colorless solution.
Sodium hydroxide is colourless. In water, it dissociates into sodium ions and chloride ions. These ions are also colourless.
$\displaystyle NaOH (aq)   \xrightarrow{H _2O} Na^+ (aq) + OH^- (aq)$

Potassium's reaction with water produces hydrogen gas of 

  1. bluish pink.

  2. greenish blue.

  3. orange.

  4. light pink.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Potassium's reaction with water produces hydrogen gas of bluish pink.
Potassium reacts with cold water and gives potassium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
$\displaystyle 2K + 2H _2O \rightarrow 2KOH + H _2$
The reaction is exothermic and the resulting solution is basic.
The reaction is so vigorous that the evolved hydrogen catches fire spontaneously.
