Potassium, K. Reaction with water. When a small piece of potassium is added to water, it produces a hissing sound as it burns with a lilac flame. It also moves about quickly on the water surface. [ image ]. Hydrogen gas is given out in the reaction. The resulting alkaline solution will turn red litmus blue because of the potassium hydroxide formed.
The volume of water changes when the water changes state from a liquid to a solid because of the formation of hydrogen bonds within it. The bonds, which are weak, are always p â¦ resent to some degree in the liquid, but as water goes solid, the formation of hydrogen bonds sets up a molecular arrangement in the water. The bonds force the water molecules into a solid structure and they push the molecules apart to do that. The extra space the water molecules then take up makes the ice less dense than the water from which it formed. That is why ice is less dense than water, and why it floats on water as we see it does. Why does the volume of water change when it freezes? That is because the gas particle's are traped in the ice
