Valence elections, electron affinity, electronegativity, atomic radius
Group 1 and group 7 of element group consists of alkali metal, which are generally combined with other elements in nature, so they have properties of compound
The answer is B, you just check if it is the same on the left and right side
A:
Left side - Right side
2xH - 2xH
1xS - 3xS
4xO - 12xO
2xAl - 2xAl
Therefore A is not correct
B:
Left side - right side
2xK - 2xK
1xCl - 1xCl
1xPb - 1xPb
2xN - 2xN
6xO - 6xO
B is therefore correct as both sides add up
Bromide gives away 1 electron (valency of 1) and Ca wants to gain 2 electrons (valency of 2) therefore 2 Br ions are needed
The number 345,000 has 3 significant figures because the trailing zeros are not significant since there's no decimal point.
<h3>What is significant figures?</h3>
Significant figures of a number in positional notation are digits in the number that are reliable and necessary to indicate the quantity of something.
Also significant figures can be defined as, the number of digits in a value, often a measurement, that contribute to the degree of accuracy of the value.
Examples of significant figures;
- 405 = 3 significant figures
- 405000 = 3 significant
- 0.040500 = 5 significant figures
<u>Note:</u> leading zeros are not significant but trailing zeros, which are zeros at the end of a number, are significant only if the number has a decimal point.
345,000 = 3.45 x 10⁵ (3 significant figures)
Thus, the number 345,000 has 3 significant figures because the trailing zeros are not significant since there's no decimal point.
