How does the location of hydrogen on the periodic table differ from the locations of other nonmetals?

Chemistry

Tom [10]3 years ago

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.

Why do you think it is important to use the same blanace throughout the entire experiment?
Zepler [3.9K]

It is important to use the same balance throughout the entire experiment since the calibration of each balance is not the same and changing balances could result in a systematic error.

There are three types of errors that could affect the results of the experiment. The effect of random or indeterminate errors is hard to predict, its effect on the results of the experiment could be different every time. The second type of error is the systematic or determinate error, which causes a shift in results in a specific direction. The last type of error in an experiment is human error.

The type of error that could be related to the use of different balances throughout the experiment is the systematic error. Instruments could be a source of error especially if they are poorly calibrated. Also, analytical balances are calibrated differently which may result in inaccuracy in the weighing of chemicals.

]If a sample of pure iodine contains 4.69 x 1022 atoms of iodine, how many moles of iodine are in the sample? A=0.08 B=0.13 C=7.
Lorico [155]
It is B, and also for a moment I didn't understand that 4.69 x 10^22. I almost did this whole problem wrong.

The volume of a sample of oxygen is 200.0 mL when the pressure is 3.000 atm and the temperature is 37.0 oC. What is the new temp
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

V1 = 200 ml

T1 = 20 °C

= 20 + 273

= 293 K

P1 = 3 atm

P2 = 2 atm

V2 = 400 ml

Using ideal gas equation,

P1 × V1/T1 = P2 × V2/T2

T2 = (2 × 400 × 293)/200 × 3

= 234400/600

= 390.67 K

= 390.67 - 273

= 117.67 °C

A mixture of 10 cm3 of methane and 10 cm3 of ethane was sparked with an excess of oxygen. After cooling to room temperature, thr
Tpy6a [65]
In the combustion process using excess oxygen, each mole of methane results to 1 mole of co2 while ethane produces 2 moles of Co2. Under same conditions, these can be translated to volume. Hence the total volume absorbed is 10 cm3 + 20 cm3 = 30 cm3.
