This is because copper is a transition metals.

Transition metals don't have a definite charge, you can see this on the periodic table. However, Alkali Earth, Alkali, Metalloids, Non-metals, Halogens, Noble Gases, etc, all have a specified charge.

Although, there are exceptions: Zinc, Gold, and Cadmium.

Aluminum is a poor metal, but it has it's own charge (3+).

Therefore, Copper has roman numerals due to the fact that it's a transition metal and Aluminum is a poor metal.

Hope this helps!

There are Roman numerals in Copper Chloride because those elements are transitional metals. Aluminum is a metal. Elements that are metals and non-metals don’t use Roman numerals, but elements that are transitional metals such as Copper(II) Chloride must use Roman numerals.

describe how knowledge of the periodic table would be important in three different careers, based on what you’ve read.

ANEK [815]

The knowledge of periodic table would be important in these three different careers such as medicine, pharmacology and engineering.

<h3>What is the importance of periodic table in following careers?</h3>

Periodic table is organised the whole elements vertically in groups and horizontally in periods with increasing atomic number.

The knowledge of arrangement of these elements serves alot of purposes in the following three different careers:

Medicine: The element, iron is an important metal in the periodic table used in treatment of low blood levels.

Pharmacology: The transition metals are useful in the field of pharmacology for the production of drugs. Example of such elements are chromium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, and molybdenum.

Engineering: The information of elements in the periodic table helps engineers in designing of materials used for constructions.

Therefore, the knowledge of periodic table is very important in these three different careers such as medicine, pharmacology and engineering.

HELP! ASAP! Iron (Fe) and copper (II) chloride (CuCl2) combine to form iron (III) chloride (FeCl3) and copper (Cu). If you start

Helga [31]

Answer: 30.978

Explanation:

From the equation 2 moles of Fe will result in 3 moles copper

so .325 moles Fe will result in .4875 moles Cu

Cu weights 63.546 gm per mole

.4875 moles * 63.546 gm / mole = 30.978 gm of Cu
