Chemistry

valina [46]3 years ago

Answer:

They have properties of both metals and nonmetals

Explanation:

  • Elements in the periodic table may be divided into Metals, non-metals, and metalloids.
  • Metals are the elements that react by losing electrons to form stable positively charged ions known as cations. Examples are group 1, 2, and 3 elements together with transition elements.
  • Non-metals are those elements that react by gaining electrons to form stable negatively charged ions called anions. Examples include oxygen, carbon, sulfur, etc.
  • Metalloids, on the other hand, are elements that have both metallic and non-metallic properties.
  • Metalloids occur between metals and non-metals in the periodic table. Examples include Boron and silicon among others.

Select the PREDICATE ADJECTIVE(S) (if one or more is present).
creativ13 [48]

<u>Answer:</u> There is no predicate adjective in the sentence.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Predicate adjective is defined as an adjective that follows the linking verb and modifies the subject of the linking verb.

For Example:

The shoes look expensive.

In this sentence, the shoes are the subject, 'look' is the linking verb and 'expensive' is the predicate adjective.

The predicate adjective modified the subject.

In the given sentence,

'Five' is a common noun, 'cookies' is the subject, 'are' is the helping verb, 'on' is the preposition, 'the' is an article and 'table' is a countable noun.

Hence, there is no linking verb and therefore, this sentence has no predicate adjective.

Write the net ionic equation for the precipitation reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of potassium sulfide and chromium
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

S²⁻(aq) + Cr²⁺(aq) ⇄ CrS(s)

Explanation:

The molecular equation includes all the species in the molecular form. Usually, it is useful to write this first to balance the equation. This is a double displacement reaction.

K₂S(aq) + Cr(NO₃)₂(aq) ⇄ 2 KNO₃(aq) + CrS(s)

The full ionic equation includes all ions and the species that no dot dissociate in water.

2 K⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq) + Cr²⁺(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq) ⇄ 2 K⁺(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq) + CrS(s)

The net ionic equation includes only those ions that participate in the reaction and the species that do not dissociate in water.

S²⁻(aq) + Cr²⁺(aq) ⇄ CrS(s)

Consider the reaction: A &lt;=&gt; B. Under standard conditions at equiliubrium, the concentrations of the compounds are [A] = 1
Katen [24]

Answer:

Keq'>1\\\Delta G'

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given reaction, the equilibrium constant turns out:

Keq=\frac{[B]}{[A]}=\frac{0.5M}{1.5M} =1/3

Nonetheless, we are asked for the reverse equilibrium constant that is:

Keq'=\frac{1}{Keq}=3

Which is greater than one.

In such a way, the Gibbs free energy turns out:

\Delta G'=-RTln(Keq')\\

Now, since the reverse equilibrium constant is greater than zero its natural logarithm is positive, therefore with the initial minus, the Gibbs free energy is less than zero, that is, negative.
