The elements of the "Noble" gases group is nonreactive. The reason for this is that noble gases are always or most of the time at room temperature.<span />

Answer:

The elements of group 18 or group of "Noble Gases" are non-reactive elements.

Explanation:

The reactivity of an element measures the tendency to combine with others. In the formation of compounds there is a tendency to catch, lose or share electrons between atoms.

The noble gases are placed in group 18 of the periodic table. The seven gases are helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), radon (Rn) and oganeson (Og).  These gases have a very low chemical reactivity, that is, little combination with other elements of the periodic table. For that reason they are called inert gases. This behavior is due to its electronic configuration, because its outermost layer or valence layer is always complete, being the stable element by itself, without the need to borrow or share electrons.

As mentioned, noble gases are not very reactive, that is, they do not usually form bonds between atoms. This means that they don't react much with other substances, they don't even react between atoms of the same gas. The exceptions to this rule are few, and usually involve heavier noble gases, such as xenon or radon.

In summary, the elements of group 18 or group of "Noble Gases" are non-reactive elements.

25.0 g sample of compound A is mixed with a 40.0 g sample of compound B. a chemical reaction occurs. Once the reaction is comple
artcher [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass of compound A  = 25g

Mass of compound B = 40g

Mass of final mixture = 55g

What happens to the missing mass?

According to the law of conservation of mass, in chemical reaction, matter is transformed from one form to another but cannot be created nor destroyed.

We expect the final mass of the mixture and that of the reacting compounds to be the same but the opposite is the case.

There is a mass loss which typifies most chemical reaction.

The reason for this is that some of the masses must have been lost by the production of gaseous species which are unaccounted for.

The missing mass:

  Total mass expected  = mass of A + mass of B = 25 + 40 = 65g

Missing mass = expected mass - mass of final mixture = 65 - 55 = 10g

A 100g sample of Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5 years. How much Carbon-14 is left after 10 years?
attashe74 [19]

Answer: The amount of carbon-14 left after 10 years is 25 g

Explanation:

Formula used :

a=\frac{a_o}{2^n}

where,

a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives = ?

a_o = Initial amount of the reactant = 100 g

n = number of half lives =\frac{\text {given time}}{\text {half life}}=\frac{10}{5}=2

Putting values in above equation, we get:

a=\frac{100g}{2^2}

a=\frac{100g}{4}=25g

Therefore, the amount of carbon-14 left after 10 years is 25 g
