<span>The atmosphere is a thin layer of gases that surrounds the Earth. It seals the planet and protects us from the vacuum of space. It protects us from electromagnetic radiation given off by the Sun and small objects flying through space such as meteoroids.</span><span>
So it's like a blanket protecting us but it has air hole/patches where sunlight can get through</span>
Answer:
phosphorus - least similar to barium
beryllium - most similar to barium
Explanation:
The formula of the chloride formed between barium and chlorine is BaCl2.
Barium is a metallic element and has the valency of +2. Beryllium is also a group two metal with a valency of +2. Hence the compound formed between beryllium and chlorine is BeCl2
Phosphorus is a nonmetal and forms a completely different chloride from BaCl2. The chloride of phosphorus is PCl5 and PCl3. These are least similar to BaCl2
Add up the molar mass of Mercury Oxide, and then divide the molar mass of Oxygen by the molar mass of the compound.
So...
mm of Hg + mm of O= 200.59g + 16g= 217g
16g/217g = .0737... x 100 = 7.37%
The periodic table is one of the most important tools in the history of chemistry. It describes the atomic properties of every known chemical element in a concise format, including the atomic number, atomic mass and relationships between the elements. Elements with similar chemical properties are arranged in columns in the periodic table.
The table thus is a quick reference as to what elements may behave the same chemically or which may have similar weights or atomic structures.
Hope this answer helps you
