Why didn't mendeleev use atomic number to arrange the elements?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Pepsi [2]3 years ago
8 0

The primary reason for this was that Mendeleev didn't know that atomic numbers actually existed. Atomic numbers were only discovered a period after Mendeleev's time. The use of X-rays made it possible to find the atomic number, and those had not been discovered yet. <span>
<span>The periodic table was then arranged in 1913 by Henry Moseley in an arrangement according to atomic number.</span></span>

How can a substance stay at a certain temperature even though it is being heated?​
SOVA2 [1]
The temperature of a certain substance can be seen as the average speed of the atoms or molecules in that substance. In the liquid state of a substance the forces between the atoms or molecules are strong enough to keep them together, however with enough freedom to move, unlike in the solid state. If we would have a closer look at the surface of a liquid from sideways, we would see water molecules jumping out of the water and reentering it again. The lower the water temperature would be the lesser the amount of water molecules leaving the liquid phase would be. If water would be heated up and the temperature will reach 100 degrees C at normal atmospheric pressure, more water molecules would leave the water than reentering. Boiling has started. The temperature of the water remains at 100 degrees C, if the heating continues as the average speed of molecules will not increase, only the rate of molecules leaving the water will increase, until all the water in liquid state has been vapourized. The amount of heat needed to vapourize liquid water is called latent heat. Latent heat is a very important driving factor in the atmosphere and thus the weather.

How many grams of sulfur must be burned to give 100.0 g of So2
andriy [413]

Answer:

50 g of S are needed

Explanation:

To star this, we begin from the reaction:

S(s) + O₂ (g) →  SO₂ (g)

If we burn 1 mol of sulfur with 1 mol of oxygen, we can produce 1 mol of sulfur dioxide. In conclussion, ratio is 1:1.

According to stoichiometry, we can determine the moles of sulfur dioxide produced.

100 g. 1mol / 64.06g = 1.56 moles

This 1.56 moles were orginated by the same amount of S, according to stoichiometry.

Let's convert the moles to mass

1.56 mol . 32.06g / mol = 50 g
