It's special, because it has only one electron, while the ideal "noble gas" configuration (helium) would call for two.

EXPLANATION:

So in one way it could 'try' to gain an electron as any element from halogen group (F-Cl-Br...) would do.
On the other hand it could lose its one electron, in which case it would belong to the alkali metals (Li-Na-K...).

In practice, H mostly shares its electron, either by covalent bonds, or by donating an electron and working together with H2O to form the H3O+or 'acid' ion.

In short, H is too special to to put it in a specific Group.

How many grams are in 2.54 x 10^23 molecules of CO2
Ivan

Answer:

=<em><u> 0.42 moles of CO2 </u></em>

Explanation:

From Avogadro's constant

6.02×10^23 molecules are in 1 mole of CO2

2.54×10^23 molecules will be in

=[(2.54×10^23) ÷ (6.02×10^23)]

= 0.42 moles of CO2
