Answer:

             Nickle

Explanation:

                  In statement it is given that the metal "M" has a formula "MCl₂" which means it has a charge of +2 as each Chlorine atom has -1 charge. Therefore, it is cleared that this metal has lost 2 electrons and originally it was carrying 28 electrons.

                  After that periodic table is concerned and a metal with 28 atomic number was tracked because a neutral atom with 28 electrons must have 28 protons and protons are infact the atomic number.

                  Hence, in periodic table the metal with 28 atomic number is found to be Nickle.

The percent composition of calcium is ?
DochEvi [55]

Answer: 40.1%

Explanation: The mass of calcium in this compound is equal to 40.1 grams because there's one atom of calcium present and calcium has an atomic mass of 40.1 . The molar mass of the compound is 100.1 grams. Using the handy equation above, we get: Mass percent = 40.1 g Ca⁄100.1 g CaCO3 × 100% = 40.1% Ca.

1. Analysis of an unknown substance formerly used in rocket fuel reveals a composition of 93.28% nitrogen and 6.72% hydrogen by
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The formula of the compound is:

N2H2

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question:

Nitrogen (N) = 93.28%

Hydrogen (H) = 6.72%

Next, we shall determine the empirical formula for the unknown compound. This is illustrated below:

N = 93.28%

H = 6.72%

Divide by their molar mass

N = 93.28 /14 = 6.663

H = 6.72 /1 = 6.7

Divide by the smallest

N = 6.663 / 6.663 = 1

H = 6.72 /6.663 = 1

Therefore, the empirical formula is NH.

Now, we can obtain the formula of the compound as follow:

The formula of a compound is simply a multiple of the empirical formula.

[NH]n = 30.04

[14 + 1]n = 30.04

15n = 30.04

Divide both side by 15

n = 30.04/15

n = 2

Therefore, the formula of the compound is:

[NH]n => [NH]2 => N2H2

Which molecule has the greatest difference in electronegativity (DE) between the two different elements? A. CO_2 B. H_2S C. NH_3
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Water has the greatest ΔEN

ΔEN H₂O → 3.4 - 2.1 = 1.3   Option D.

Explanation:

We should find the Electronegativity data in the Periodic table for all the elements:

C : 2.6

O: 3.4

H: 2.1

S: 2.6

N: 3.0

a. ΔEN CO₂ → 3.4 - 2.6 = 0.4

b. ΔEN H₂S → 2.6 - 2.1 = 0.5

c. ΔEN NH₃ → 3 - 2.1= 0.9

d. ΔEN H₂O → 3.4 - 2.1 = 1.3

The periodic table is an important but rather dry scientific tool. It lists all the chemical elements, ordered by their atomic numbers. Elements with similar behavior are grouped in the same column (called a group), with metals generally on the left and non-metals (gases) on the right. Rows are called “periods” - hence, periodic table.
