Can the element gold kick out magnesium from a compound?

Chemistry

Misha Larkins [42]1 year ago

Gold cannot replace Magnesium from a compound as gold is placed lowest in the reactivity series of metals. It won't even react with the compound let alone replace it. Gold has great ductile strength and malleability.

 Features of Reactivity Series of Metals

  • The metals at the top of the reactivity series are powerful reducing agents since they are very easily oxidized. These metals tarnish or corrode very easily though.
  • The reducing ability of the metals grows weaker while traversing down the reactivity series.
  • The electro-positivity of the elements also reduces while moving down the reactivity series of metals.
  • All metals that are found above hydrogen in the activity series liberate H2 gas upon reacting with dilute hydrochloric acid(HCl) or dilute sulphuric acid(H2SO4).
  • Metals than on the reactivity series have the ability to displace metals that are placed lower from their salt solutions such as Mg can replace Au but Au cannot replace Mg as Au is kept lowest in the reactivity series
  • Higher ranking metals require greater energy for their isolation from ores and other compounds to stay highly reactive.

Therefore Gold cannot replace Magnesium from a compound as it is the least reactive metal and therefore, comes lower than Magnesium in the reactivity series

Answer: genotype: Ee phenotype: two small eyes.

genotype: RR'  phenotype: pink eyes

genotype: GB phenotype: green and blue splotches

genotype: cc phenotype:  straight

genotype: Tt phenotype:  has tail

genotype: Ss phenotype: sharp teeth

genotype: FF' phenotype: three toes

genotype: ww phenotype: white

genotype: YY phenotype: pointy

genotype: nn phenotype: two ears

genotype: Ll phenotype: long

Explanation: hope this helps (the uppercase letters are dominant genes. the lowercase letter are recessive genes. for a recessive gene to show up in a phenotype you need 2 lower case letters such as cc or ss. for a dominant gene to show up in phenotype you need either 1 or 2 uppercase letters such as Cc or SS. Codominant genes present both colors in the phenotypes i.e. a brown and white cow. incomplete dominance is when neither gene is dominant so a mix of the 2 are present in the phenotype i.e. a pink rose. A regulatory gene controls the expression of a gene

Which trends appear as the elements in Period 3 are considered from left to right?
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Metallic character decreases, and electronegativity increases.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the organization of the periodic table, we can see that from left to right, the electronegativity increases as nonmetals are able to attract electrons more easily than metals.

Moreover, in contrast to the previous periodic trend, the metallic character decreases from left to right because the elements tend to decrease the capacity to lose electrons and consequently start attracting them.

Thus, the answer would be: "Metallic character decreases, and electronegativity increases".

Best regards!

Water molecules are polar because the?
disa [49]

Answer:

Water (H2O) is polar due to the  bent shape of the molecule. The shape means most of the negative charge from the oxygen is one one side of the molecule and the positive charge of the hydrogen atoms is on the other side of the molecule. This is an example of polar covalent chemical bonding.

Hope this helps!
