Word equation for k(s)+h2o(l) yield koh(aq) + h2(g)

The word equation for the given chemical equation is given below.

Explanation:

Word equation is defined as the equation in which substances are written in word form and not in chemical formulas. The words "and" or "plus" means that one substance and another substance are both reactants or products.

For the given chemical equation:

The word equation for this follows:

Here, 1 mole of potassium metal reacts with liquid water to produce 1 mole of potassium hydroxide and 1 mole of hydrogen gas.

Hence, the word equation for the given chemical equation is given above.

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure  

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.
