180.189 g was the mass of the zinc sample with a specific heat of zinc is 0.390 j/g°C.

<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

The specific heat capacity is defined as the quantity of heat (J) absorbed per unit mass (kg) of the material when its temperature increases 1 K (or 1 °C), and its units are J/(kg K) or J/(kg °C).

Using specific heat capacity formula here:

C_{Zn} × m_{Zn}×  ΔT_{Zn} = C_{H_2O}× m_{H_2O} ×  ΔT_{H_2O}

0.390J/g°C × m_{Zn} ×77.4ºC = 4.184J/g°C×  65.0g ×  20.00ºC.

m_{Zn} = 180.189 g

Hence, 180.189 g was the mass of the zinc sample.

Generally, when going from left to right across a period on the periodic table:
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Atomic radio increases as number of valence electrons increase. Hence the first and fourth statement are wrong. Electronegativity is highest for elements on the TOP right hand corner of the periodic table so the third statement is wrong. Hence the answer is the third statement

Where are the alkali metals, the alkaline earth metals, the halogens, and the noble gases located on the periodic table?
ivolga24 [154]
The Alkali Metals- (Group 1A)can be found (excluding hydrogen) in the first column of the periodic table. They all have 1 valence electron and tend to form +1 cations when forming Ionic bonds with non metals. 

The Alkali Earth Metals: (Group 2A) can be found in the second column/group on the periodic table. These elements form +2 positively charged cations when forming Ionic bonds with non metals. They also all have 2 valence electrons. 

The Halogens: are the elements that make up the second to last group on the periodic table. These elements include Chlorine, Fluorine, Bromine, Iodine, and Astatine. These elements have 7 valence electrons. The usually form a -1 charged anion when forming ionic bonds with metals. 

The Noble gases: the very last group on the periodic table. All these elements have 8 valance electrons. Due to the octet rule these atoms are already very stable and rarely react with other elements.

pav-90 [236]
According to one acid base theory the forward reaction is classified as an acid base reaction because H2S is a H donor and CH3NH2 is a H acceptor. 
According to the acid base theory; an acid is the proton donor or hydrogen ions donor while the base is the proton acceptor or hydrogen ion acceptor.

Name the following compound: CH3 – CH2 – CH = CH – CH3<br><br> Fill In The "___"<br><br> 2-Pen ___
swat32

Answer: 2-Pentene

Explanation:

The longest continuous carbon chain that contains the double bond is identified to be Pentene, since it has five carbon atoms.The presence of the double bond makes it an Alkene, hence the -ane ending of the parent Alkane is changed to -ene.

We then do our numbering in the direction that gives the position of the double bond a lower number. Numbering from right to left, the position of the double bond is at carbon atom 2 going to 3, which is lower compared to the other direction.

Hence the name of the compound is 2-Pentene.
