Answer: 6.0 g of silicon has more atoms
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number of particles.
To calculate the moles, we use the equation:
a)
1 mole of Si contains = atoms
0.21 moles of Si contains = atoms
b)
1 mole of Fe contains = atoms
0.11 moles of Fe contains = atoms
Thus 6.0 g of silicon has more atoms
Answer:
A feasible error could have been the removal of the sample before all water evaporated.
Explanation:
In order to determine the percentage of water in an hydrate, an experiment that could be performed is the heating of the sample until the mass does not change. If the student heated the sample an insufficient amount of time, water will be present in the sample, thus reducing the percentage reported.
Answer:
I^ -1 configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p6 4d10 5s2 5p6
Explanation:
The electron configuration of iodine is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p6 4d10 5s2 5p5, but with the addition of an electron it gains another other to make it 5p6.
Answer:
Option-B (Carbon and Silicon)
Explanation:
Among the given pairs only carbon and silicon have the most similar properties. This is because,
Sodium and Magnesium belong to different groups. Sodium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Magnesium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.
Example:
2 Na + Cl₂ → NaCl
Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂
As shown in reactions when Sodium and Magnesium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.
Carbon and Silicon show almost same properties because both belong to Group IV hence both are capable of forming four bonds. Also, they share the same property of self linkage in making a long chains.
Argon and Chlorine also belong to two different groups. Argon is present in Group VIII (Noble Gases) and Chlorine is present in Group VII (Halogens). Hence, Argon is an inert specie which is non reactive while Chlorine gives different reaction easily.
Potassium and Calcium belong to different groups. Potassium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Calcium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.
Example:
2 K + Cl₂ → KCl
Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂
As shown in reactions when Potassium and Calcium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.
