explain how one and two letters chemical symbols are used to identify elements whose names begin with the same letter, for examp

le hydrogen and helium.
Chemistry
1 answer:
Nadusha1986 [10]2 years ago
8 0

The symbol of helium is He and this distinguishes it from the symbol for hydrogen.

<h3>What are chemical symbols?</h3>

Chemical symbol are the means by which we designate elements on paper. The symbols could be one letter or two letter as the case may be. There is no chemical symbol that has more than two letters that are used to designate the element.

We know that hydrogen has the symbol H. There is to way that another element will also have the symbol H as that would be tantamount to confusion. As a result of that, the symbol of helium is He and this distinguishes it from the symbol for hydrogen.

A molecular biologist measures the mass of cofactor a in an average yeast cell. the mass is 41.5 pg . what is the total mass in
Hitman42 [59]
The unit pg stands for pictogram. It is one-trillionth of a gram. Because of the very small mass, it is expressed in the prefix form of the base units for convenience. Now, the mass of cofactor a is 41.5 pg per cell. Since there are a total of 105 cells, the total mass would be:

Total mass = 105 cells * 41.5 pg/cell = 4,357.5 pg

A gas mixture contains HBr, NO2, and C2H6 at STP. If a tiny hole is made in the container, which gas will effuse fastest? NO2 C2
Anarel [89]

Answer:

C2H6

Explanation:

Let us first consider the molar Masses of each gas

HBr - 80.91 g/mol

NO2 - 46.0055 g/mol

C2H6 - 30.07 g/mol

We must remember that the greater the molar mass of a gas the lesser its velocity and average kinetic energy.

Looking at the gases listed, C2H6 have the highest average kinetic energy at this temperature since it has the lowest molecular mass. This reasoning is directly derived from Graham's law of diffusion in gases.

Hence C2H6 will effuse fastest when a hole is made in the container. It also possess the greatest average kinetic energy because it has the lowest molecular mass.

Is cooking raw tomatoes a physical or a chemical change?<br>Explain why?
salantis [7]

When you are asked a question like this, you can always ask yourself this question. Can I change it back after this change? For example, if you are burning wood, you cannot bring it back to wood after you burn it, therefore, it is a chemical change. However, if you boil and evaporate water, you can make the water condense again back into its liquid form. In this case, you cannot bring the tomato back to its raw state. Therefore, cooking raw tomatoes is a chemical change.
