Alkali metals readily react with oxyacids forming corresponding salts (like M_(2)CO_(3), MHCO_(3), MNO_(3), M_(2)SO_(4) etc) with evolution of hydrogen. They also dissolve in liquid NH3 but without the evolution of hydrogen. The colour of its dilute solution is blue when it is heated and concentrated, then its colour becomes bronze Among the nitrate of alkali metals which one can be decomposed to its oxide

A) Work done by frictional force is always negative B) A body at rest can have mechanical energy C) Mechanical energy of freely falling body decrease gradually

FeCl_(3) on reaction with K_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)] in aqueous solution gives a blue colour . These two solutions are separated by a semipermeable membrane as shown in the figure . Both the solutions are sufficiently dilute & osmosis will take place as there is a difference in concentration of the solutions. Imagine the experiment is carried out at 27^(@)C . The osmotic flow will take place in onedirection and not in both . The osmotic pressure (pi) of FeCl_(3) Solution can expressed as
