5. Based on the information provided,and your knowledge of chemical reactions and bonding, which of the chemical equations correctly summarizes the reaction? K+H_(2)Oarrow K_(2)+H_(3)O_(2) K+H_(2)Oarrow KOH+H_(2) K+H_(2)Oarrow KH+O_(2) K+H_(2)Oarrow KO_(2)+H_(2)

## Step 1This problem is about understanding the chemical reactions involving potassium (K) and water (H2O). The hint given in the problem is 'bonding' and 'chemical equations'.## Step 2In chemistry, bonding refers to the force of attraction between atoms or molecules. When an alkali metal such as potassium reacts with water, an alkali metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas are produced.## Step 3The balanced chemical equation reflecting this is .
