c. Some health risks are increased by heredity, which manifest under certain environmental conditions.

<h3>The chance of contracting some diseases can arise in particular circumstances.</h3>

The occurrence of certain diseases is influenced by certain environmental factors. Air pollution from a polluted environment increases the chance of allergic people or those with overactive immune systems acquiring respiratory conditions like asthma. A similar genetic flaw in melanin formation increases the risk of skin cancer in people who are exposed to UV rays. As a result, certain circumstances promote the development of disease.

Communities can lessen exposure to diseases and chemicals that have damaging effects on the body by focusing on environmental health. Environmental health treatments can improve everyone's quality of life, but they may be especially noticeable for people with pre-existing health conditions.

Name the four elements on the Periodic Table that are considered METALLOIDS?​
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te), polonium (Po) and astatine (At)

Explanation:

metalloids are elements that are in between the metals and nonmetals. they are in between because they have properties of both metals and nonmetals.

you can search "metalloids on the periodic table" and go to images to see what i mean :)

Fe(NO3)2 not sure how to get the oxidation numbers of all elements
Shtirlitz [24]
You must remember that oxidation number of hydrogen in acids is always +1, oxidation number of oxygen in oxides & acids is always -2... metals has always oxidation number on plus!

group NO3 comes from HNO3...and oxidation number of whole acid group is always on minus and equal to the amount of hydrogen atoms in this acid... so oxidation number of NO3 = -1

we have 2 NO3 groups so 2*(-1) = -2 and that is the reason why oxidation number of Fe in this formula must be +2... because sum of all elements always gives 0!

Now we could count of oxidation number for nitrogen... we write HNO3 and start counting from right to left:
3*(-2) from oxygens + 1 from hydrogen = -5
so nitrogen must have +5 oxidation number... because sum all in formula must be 0.

Explain why hydrogen exhibits properties similar to those of both lithium and fluorine?
PtichkaEL [24]

Hydrogen exhibit similar properties with lithium because both are in the same group 1 as they both have a valence electron of 1

  • Hydrogen also exhibit some similar properties with fluorine simply because they are both non metals

<h3>What is an element?</h3>

An element is a substance which cannot be split into simpler forms by an ordinary chemical process. This simply goes to say that elements are substances which cannot be decomposed into simpler substances by ordinary chemical reactions.

An atom is the smallest unit or part of an element which can take part in a chemical reaction.

On a general note, elements are classified as thus:

  • Metals, non-metal, and metalloid.

  • The extreme left side elements in the periodic table are metals, for example, aluminum, sodium, calcium, caesium, etc.

  • However, elements on the right side are generally referred to as non-metals, carbon, chlorine, oxygen,

So therefore, hydrogen exhibit similar properties with lithium because both are in the same group 1 as they both have a valence electron of 1

  • Hydrogen also exhibit some similar properties with fluorine simply because they are both non metals

How many milliliters of sodium metal, with a density of 0.97 g/mL, would be needed to produce 53.2 grams of hydrogen gas in the
olchik [2.2K]
The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2
</span><span>
We first use the amount of hydrogen gas to be produced and the molar mass of the hydrogen gas to determine the amount in moles to be produced. Then, we use the relation from the reaction to relate H2 to Na.

53.2 g H2 ( 1 mol / 2.02 g ) ( 2 mol Na / 1 mol H2 ) ( 22.99 g / 1 mol ) = 1210.96 g Na

1210.96 g Na ( 1 mL / 0.97 g ) = 1248.41 mL Na needed</span>
