Use the drop-down menus to classify the elements as alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, or transition metals. nickel (ni): potassium (k): cadmium (cd): calcium (ca): barium (ba):

The following are the classification of each element above:

Nickel - Transitional Metal
Potassium- Alkali Metal
Cadmium- Transitional Metal
Calcium- Alkaline Earth Metal
Barium- Alkaline Earth Metal

I attached a color-coded, labelled period table that will help to see the derivative of my responses.

= 49.674 g NaCl

Explanation:

From the equation;

1 mole of Sodium metal produces 2 moles sodium chloride

This means;

23 g of Na will produce 116.88 g of NaCl

Therefore;

11.5 g will generate;

 = (11.5 × 116.88)/23

 =  58.44 g of NaCl

But;

Percentage yield = (Actual yield/Theoretical yield)× 100%

         85 /100 = Actual yield /58.44 g

Thus;

Actual yield = 0.85 × 58.44

                  = 49.674 g NaCl
