Which group of elements shares characteristics with both metals and nonmetals?

metalloids

salts

halogens

alloys

The correct explanation is D.

Sodium being an Alkali Metal has a high tendency to lose its only valence electron to attain Neon configuration. In this process, it becomes positively charged, and hence becomes a Cation.

Chlorine is a non-metal that is one electron short of attaining Argon configuration, and hence readily takes the available electrons to become a negatively charged Anion. Since these two are oppositely charged, by the laws of electrostatics, they attract each other forming an Ionic Bond that requires considerable energy to break.

Answer:

the answer is d).

Explanation:

A sulfur atom has two unpaired electrons. Stable electron configurations are those where all electron shells or subshells are filled.

A sulfur atom, which has an atomic number of 16, has 16 electrons. The electron configuration for sulfur is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4. This shows that there are two electrons in the 1s subshell, two in the 2s, six in the 2p, two in the 3s, and four in the 3p. Unpaired electrons are those which occupy an atomic or molecular orbital by themselves, not forming a pair with another electron. In the case of sulfur, all the electrons in 1s, 2s, 2p, and 3s shells are paired. But in the 3p shell, there are four electrons, meaning two of them are unpaired electrons.

The phrase 'stable electron configurations are likely to contain' refers to atoms with fully filled electron shells or subshells. Atoms strive for a stable configuration, which typically means having full outer electron shells. This is the reason that noble gases are unreactive, as they have completely filled shells.

Jupiter, I believe?

The distance between Jupiter, which is 778.6 million kilometers, and the Sun is approximately 5.2 Astronomical Units (AU). An AU, or the average distance from Earth to the Sun, is approximately 149.6 million kilometers.

The planet whose distance from the Sun is approximately 778,600,000 km is Jupiter. Consider that 1 Astronomical Unit (AU) - the average distance from the Earth to the Sun - is about 149,597,870,700 meters or 149.6 million kilometers. So, when we compare this to the distance of Jupiter, we find it's around 5.2 AU from the Sun. Jupiter, being the largest planet in our solar system and located beyond the asteroid belt, is indeed far from the sun. However, this increases its year length, experiencing longer periods between each full orbit of the Sun.

Answer:- work = 319 J

Solution:- The volume of the gas decreases from 5.35 L to 1.55 L.

[tex]\Delta V=1.55L-5.35L[/tex]  = -3.80 L

external pressure is given as 0.829 atm.

[tex]w=-P_e_x_t\Delta V[/tex]

where w is representing work.

Let's plug in the values and calculate pressure-volume work:

[tex]w=-0.829atm(-3.80L)[/tex]

w = 3.15 atm.L

We need to convert atm.L to J.

1 atm.L = 101.325 J

So, [tex]3.15atm.L(\frac{101.325J}{1atm.L})[/tex]

= 319 J

So, 319 J of work is involved in a chemical reaction. Positive work means the work is done on the system.

Final answer:

To find the amount of work involved in a chemical reaction with a volume decrease, we calculate it using the formula for work, leading to a result of approximately 324.7 Joules.

Explanation:

The question asks for the calculation of work involved in a chemical reaction where the volume decreases under constant pressure. First, to find the work done, we can use the formula W = -PΔV, where P is the pressure and ΔV is the change in volume (final volume - initial volume). Given that the pressure remains constant at 0.829 atm and the volume decreases from 5.35 L to 1.55 L, we have ΔV = 1.55 L - 5.35 L = -3.8 L. To convert this work into joules (J), we use the conversion factor where 1 L·atm = 101.3 J. Therefore, the work done is W = -0.829 atm × -3.8 L × 101.3 J/(L·atm) = 324.7226 J, which can be rounded to approximately 324.7 J.

Step 1) Determine the amount of energy the water absorbed, or gained, using q= mc∆T

q=(56g)(4.184 J/g°c)(58.7-25)

q=+7896.0448 J

Step 2) Let's think about what this means. The water must have gained 7896.0448 J of energy because its energy is positive.

This makes sense too, since the temperature of the water increased, and thus it must have gained energy. Knowing this, we can conclude that the metal placed into the water must have released 7896.0448 J of energy.

Since we know the metal released 7896.0448 J of energy, when we solve for the specific heat capacity of the metal, we have to put this number in as negative.

Step 3) Using q= mc∆T, solve for the specific heat capacity of the metal

-7896.0448 J=(26g)(c)(58.7-117)

c=5.209160047 J/g°c

ANSWER: the specific heat capacity of the metal is 5.2 J/g°c

Mendeleev organized his periodic table in order of increasing atomic number in 1869.

Dmitri Mendeleev a Russian chemist organized his periodic table in 1869 by increasing atomic mass not atomic number. The organization by increasing atomic number occurred in the 20th century.

The Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev first organized the periodic table in 1869. However, it's important to note that Mendeleev initially arranged the elements based on increasing atomic mass. It was not until the 20th century that the periodic table was arranged by increasing atomic number. Thus Mendeleev himself did not organize the periodic table based on atomic number this happened much later after realization that periodic properties of the elements were better correlated with atomic number rather than atomic mass.

Mendeleev also predicted the existence of elements that were not yet discovered during his time and these elements when discovered followed the properties he had anticipated. This offered great validation to his version of the periodic table.

Answer:

First , second energy levels are complete where as third energy level is not.

Explanation:

Electronic configuration is defined as distribution of electrons of an element in its various energy levels.

Chlorine has an atomic number of 17. Which means that its has 17 proton and 17 electrons.

Electronic configuration of chlorine is given as:

[tex]Cl=1s^22s^2p^63s^23p^5[/tex]

Energy level which fully filled are : 1s , 2s , 2p

Energy level which are not fully filled are : 3s, 3p

First , second energy levels are complete where as third energy level is not.

The chlorine atom has 2 electrons in the 1st energy level, 8 in the 2nd, and 7 in the 3rd. The first two energy levels are full while the 3rd energy level is not full as it could accommodate one more electron.

The electron configuration for a chlorine atom is [Ne] 3s2 3p5. This stands for 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5 considering the entire configuration. To calculate the total number of electrons in each energy level, we first need to understand that the number in front of the 's' or 'p' (also 'd' or 'f' in larger atoms) represents the principal quantum number, also known the energy level of the electrons.

So, the total number of electrons for each energy level is as follows:

Now, as we know that the 1st energy level (s-orbital) can hold up to 2 electrons, 2nd level (s and p orbitals) can hold up to 8 electrons, and the 3rd one can hold up to 18 (but due to it being a p-element, chlorine will only use up to 8), we conclude that the 3rd energy level is not full because it has 7 electrons while it could hold at least one more.

Final answer:

The density of the liquid is found by dividing its mass, 0.115 grams, by its volume, 0.265 milliliters, resulting in a density of 0.434 g/mL.

Explanation:

To calculate the density of a liquid, we divide its mass by its volume. In the case of the liquid with a mass of 0.115 grams and a volume of 0.000265 liters, we first convert liters to milliliters (since the density is asked for in g/mL), knowing that 1 L = 1000 mL. Therefore, the volume in milliliters is 0.000265 L × 1000 mL/L = 0.265 mL.

Now we can calculate the density using the formula: Density = Mass/Volume. Substituting the given values: Density = 0.115 g / 0.265 mL = 0.434 g/mL.

Another is the aspect in Bohr model theory that electron orbit the nucleus like planets orbit the sun.  Quantum mechanisms have come to disprove this and identify that electron orbit can only be predicted by probabilities and not in the certainty of their position around the nucleus of the atom. They randomly skip and hop (disappear and reappear) at positions around the nucleus.

Final answer:

The mass of water produced from the reaction of 3.03 g of butane with excess oxygen is approximately 4.69 grams.

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of water (H₂O) produced from the reaction of butane (C₄H₁₀) with excess oxygen (O₂), we need to use the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of butane:

C₄H₁₀(g) + 6O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(l)

From the balanced equation, we can see that 1 mole of butane produces 5 moles of water. First, we'll need to calculate the number of moles of butane we have:

Butane has a molar mass of 58.12 g/mol (44.10 for carbon + 14.02 for hydrogen), so:

Moles of butane = 3.03 g / 58.12 g/mol ≈ 0.0521 mol

Since 1 mole of butane produces 5 moles of water, the moles of water produced will be:

Moles of H₂O = 0.0521 mol butane x 5 moles H₂O/mol butane = 0.2605 mol H₂O

Finally, we calculate the mass of water produced using the molar mass of water, which is approximately 18.02 g/mol:

Mass of H₂O = 0.2605 mol x 18.02 g/mol ≈ 4.69 g

Therefore, the mass of water produced is about 4.69 g.
