Answer:
19.9 atoms
Explanation:
Grams --- Moles --- Atoms
You're converting from atoms (molecules) to moles.
You do not have to calculate the mass of "di phosphorus pentoxide."
Since you're already given 1.2x10^25 atoms, you start with that. You need to cancel out the atoms, so you need Avogadro's number as shown in the image.
(This has nothing to do with the problem) But in case if you're wondering, the "di" in phosphorus means there's 2 phosphorus and the "pent" means that there are 5 oxygens. So P2O5. Go to your periodic table, multiply their respective atomic masses. You would multiply phosphorus twice and oxygen 5 times. And add them up to get the overall mass.
I hope this helped!
Explanation:
When we move across a period from left to right then there will occur an increase in electronegativity and also there will occur an increase in non-metallic character of the elements.
As sulfur (S) is a group 16 element and chlorine (Cl) is a group 17 element. Hence, sulfur (S) is more metallic in nature than chlorine.
This means that chlorine (S) is less metallic than chlorine (Cl).
Both indium (I) and aluminium (Al) are group 13 elements. And, when we move down a group then there occur an increase in non-metallic character of the elements. As indium belongs to group 13 and period 5 whereas aluminium belongs to group 13 and period 3.
Therefore, aluminium (Al) is more metallic than indium (In).
Arsenic (Ar) is a group 15 element and bromine (Br) is a group 17 element. Therefore, arsenic is more metallic than bromine.
Answer:
Electrons
Explanation:
The breaking and forming of bonds between atoms in substances results in changes in the number of electrons in the substance.
- Atoms combined in order to share, gain or lose electrons for it to be stable.
- The noble gases have a set up configuration which makes them stable.
- All atom tend to mimic the noble gases.
Ionic bonds generally have higher melting points due to stronger electrostatic interactions.
