5) Ethanol is C2H5OH so it is made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Carbon exists as a solid in its elemental state so is written as C(s). Hydrogen and oxygen exist as diatomic gases in their standard states so they are written as H2(g) and O2(g) respectively. Then you need to balance the equation but don't forget you are only allowed 1 molecule of your product on the right hand side of the equation.
Hence, the equation would be: 2 C(s) + 3 H2(g) + 0.5 O2(g) --> C2H5OH(l)
So, the answer is D.
9)a) Ionization Energies decreases down the group, the greater the atomic number - size of the atom increases resulting in less nuclear pull.
So, the answer is A.
c) Noble gases have filled shells, which is the most stable configuration for an atom. Removing an electron from a noble gas would increase the energy more than if you removed an electron from, for example, nitrogen.
Answer is D (though I'm not sure about this one.
