A. Sodium is correct.
Sodium is an alkali metal.
Aluminum is a post-transitional metal- still a metal but it’s character is not as metallic as sodium.
Silicon is a metalloid- it has characteristics from both the metals and the non-metals.
Phosphorous is a non-metal.
Answer:
MoClBr₂
Explanation:
First we calculate the mass of bromine in the compound:
- 300.00 g - (82.46224 g + 45.741 g) = 171.79676 g
Then we<u> calculate the number of moles of each element</u>, using their <em>respective molar masses</em>:
- 82.46224 g Mo ÷ 95.95 g/mol = 0.9594 mol Mo
- 45.741 g Cl ÷ 35.45 g/mol = 1.290 mol Cl
- 171.79676 g Br ÷79.9 g/mol = 2.150 mol Br
Now we <u>divide those numbers of moles by the lowest number among them</u>:
- 0.9594 mol Mo / 0.9594 = 1
- 1.290 mol Cl / 0.9594 = 1.34 ≅ 1
- 2.150 mol Br / 0.9594 = 2.24 ≅ 2
Meaning the empirical formula is MoClBr₂.
Explanation:
The most reactive metals are found on the left of the periodic table, in the blue column, known as the alkali metals. Their reactivity increases as we go down column (group) one. Reactive metals, when attached to less reactive metals, have the ability to prevent the less reactive metal from rusting.
Answer:
Explanation:
The Law of Conservation of Mass is defined and explained using examples of reacting mass calculations using the law are fully explained with worked out examples using the balanced symbol equation. The method involves reacting masses deduced from the balanced symbol equation.
