We assemble the following apparatus for a reaction where a solid is:

Correct answer: C. Reacts with a liquid

  • A. Heated in a vacuum
  • B. Distilled from a solution
  • C. Reacts with a liquid
  • D. Melted

Explanation

The assembled apparatus is specifically used for a reaction where a solid reacts with a liquid, producing a gas that is subsequently collected. This setup aligns with option C, 'Reacts with a liquid.' Option A, 'Heated in a vacuum,' is incorrect as it involves preventing oxidation without involving a liquid reaction. Option B, 'Distilled from a solution,' does not fit as distillation separates substances based on boiling points without a gas-producing reaction. Option D, 'Melted,' is incorrect because melting does not involve a chemical reaction to produce gas.
