Metals usually form cations because they like to lose electrons to get a full octet.
Nonmetals usually form anions because they like to gain electrons to get a full octet.

Aluminum will lose 3 electrons to form a cation
Beryllium will lose 2 electrons to form a cation
Copper can lose either 1 or 2 electrons to form a cation.
Silicon can gain 4 electrons to form an anion.

Your correct answer is silicon.

When 40.0 mL of 0.200 M HCl at 21.5°C is added to 40.0 mL of 0.200 M NaOH also at 21.5°C in a coffee-cup calorimeter, the temper
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The enthalpy change for the reaction is ΔH = - 54.3 kJ/mol

Explanation:

The reaction between HCl and NaOH is a neutralization reaction:

HCl + NaOH \rightarrow NaCl + H2O

Heat released during neutralization = Heat gained by water

i.e. \qrxn = -\q(solution)-----(1)

where:

\q(solution) = mc\Delta T-----(2)

m = total mass of solution

m = density*total\ volume = 1.00g/ml*(40.00+40.00)ml = 80.00\ g

ΔT = change in temperature = 22.8 - 21.5 = 1.3 C

c = specific heat = 4.18 J/g C

\q(solution) = 80.00g*4.18J/gC*1.3C = 434.7 J

As per equation (1): qrxn = -434.7 J

The reaction enthalpy ΔH is the heat released per mole of acid (or base)

Moles\ of\ HCl = V(HCl) * M(HCl) = 0.040 L*0.200moles/L = 0.008\ moles

\Delta Hrxn = \frac{q}{mole}=\frac{-434.7J}{0.008mole}=-54337 J/mol=-54.3 kJ/mol
