using what you know about electron configurations explain the notion that elements in the same column in the periodic table have

similar chemical and physical properties
Chemistry

Levart [38]4 years ago

Answer:

Two elements in same group having similar properties.

Explanation:

The elements shows similar properties if they have same number of valance electrons.

As we move left to right in periodic table the number of valance electrons increases in case of every element

When we move top to down in the group of periodic table the number of valance electrons remain same. So the elements in same group shows similar properties.

For example:

Fluorine and chlorine are present in same group, both have same valance electrons so they shows similar properties.

Electronic configuration of fluorine.

F₉ = [He] 2s² 2p⁵

Electronic configuration of chlorine.

Cl₁₇ = [Ne] 3s² 3p⁵

Both have same number of valance electrons that's why showing similar physical and chemical properties.

Which of these statements about atomic models is most likely correct?
taurus [48]

Answer:

The correct option is the second option

Explanation:

Generally, the aim of science is to understand a particular concept in the best and the most correct way possible; hence experiments are done and repeated to ensure an explanation is actually true about a concept or need modification.

The atomic models have also been a "beneficiary" of this process. The different atomic models are usually been improved upon as scientists leaned more. For example, the Dalton's atomic theory has been modified to a more correct atomic description; some of which are shown below

(1) Dalton's theory suggested that an atom is the smallest unit of a molecule. We know now from different experiments (by J. J Thompson and Rutherford) that atoms are not the smallest molecules and are made up of smaller particles known as protons, neutrons and electrons.

(2) Dalton's theory suggested that atoms of the same elements are alike in all aspects. The knowledge of isotopy shows this is not always the case. As atoms of the same elements (isotopes) have the same atomic number but different mass number; hence cannot be said to be the same in all aspects.

(3) Dalton's theory also suggested that when atoms react, they do so in fixed, simple whole number ratio. The knowledge of organic chemistry shows atoms do not always react in simple whole number ratios

There are several modifications to different postulations by scientists that have also occurred aside from this, hence the most correct answer is that "As scientists learned more, they modified the atomic model"

Acetylene gas is often used in welding torches because of the very high heat produced when it reacts with oxygen gas, producing
UkoKoshka [18]

<u>Answer:</u> 1.2 moles of carbon dioxide is produced for the given value of oxygen.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical reaction for the combustion of acetylene follows the equation:

2C_2H_2+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

5 moles of oxygen produces 4 moles of carbon dioxide.

So, 1.5 moles of oxygen will produce = \frac{4}{5}\times 1.5=1.2mol of carbon dioxide.

Hence, 1.2 moles of carbon dioxide is produced for the given value of oxygen.

A block of material has a volume of 2m^3. It has a mass of 1 ×10^4 kg. Calculate the density of the material sample and express
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: density = 5 g/cm³

Explanation:

Data

Volume = v = 2 m³

mass = m = 1 x 10⁴ kg

Density = d = ? g/cm³

Formula

density = mass/volume

Volume

                          1 m³ -------------------  1 000 000 cm³

                          2 m³ ------------------     x

                          x = (2 x 1 000 000) / 1

                         x = 2 000 000 cm³

Mass

                          1 kg ------------------   1000 g

                         1 x 10⁴ kg ------------    x

                         x = (1 x 10⁴ x 1000) / 1

                         x = 10 000 000 g

density = (10 000 000) / 2 000 000

density = 5 g/cm³

How would the consumption of antacid (sodium bicarbonate) affect urine pH?
nexus9112 [7]
The consumption of antacid affect urine pH by increasing the pH of urine. Sodium bicarbonate or antacid neutralizes the acidity in the stomach. It is expelled in the body through the urine by alkalizing it. Hope this answers the question.
