(3) 16, which is Sulfer.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: Option (2) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that non-metals do not conduct electricity.

Carbon has atomic number 12, sulfur has atomic number 16, and chlorine has an atomic number 17. All these elements are non-metals.

Whereas aluminium has atomic number 13 and it is a poor metal.

So, aluminium being a poor metal is a brittle solid and a poor conductor of heat and electricity.

5. The number of atoms in 9.2 g of Na will be: A. 6.2 x 1023 atoms B. 2.408 x 1023 atoms C. 9.2 x1023 atoms D. 23 atoms E. 9.2 a
cluponka [151]

Answer:

The answer is "Option B"

Explanation:

Formula:

Na atoms= Na atoms moles \times  NA

               = \frac{mass}{Na \ Molar\ mass} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\\\\= \frac{9.2}{23} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\\\\=0.2875 \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\\\\=2.4 \times  10^{23}\ atoms \\\\

You wish to calculate the mass of hydrogen gas that can be prepared from 5.06 g of srh2 and 4.34 g of h2o.
Alexus [3.1K]
<span>0.228 g The balance formula for the reaction between SrH2 and H2O is SrH2(s) + 2 H2O(l) ==> Sr(OH)2(s) + 2 H2(g) So for every mole of SrH2 used, 2 moles of hydrogen gas, or 4 moles of hydrogen atoms are released. So let's calculate the molar mass of SrH2 and H2O so see what the limiting reactant is. strontium = 87.62 Hydrogen = 1.00794 Oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass of SrH2 = 87.62 + 2 * 1.00794 = 89.63588 g/mol Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488 g/mol Moles of SrH2 = 5.06 g / 89.63588 g/mol = 0.056450609 mol Moles of H2O = 4.34 g / 18.01488 g/mol = 0.240911957 mol Looking at the balanced formula, for every mole of SrH2, it takes 2 moles of H2O. So the limiting reactant will be the SrH2. And for every mole of SrH2 used, we get 4 moles of hydrogen atoms. So 4 * 0.056450609 mole * 1.00794 g/mole = 0.227595307 g Since we only have 3 significant figures, round the result to 3 figures, giving 0.228 g</span>

Why are only some minerals found as native minerals? For example, iron and aluminum are almost never found as native elements in
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer: Metals found as native minerals in nature are not highly reactive

Explanation:

Native minerals refers to minerals that are found in nature in their pure metallic form such as gold. Iron and aluminum are highly reactive metals. Highly reactive metals are far up in the activity series of metals, they have a great tendency towards oxidation. On the other hand, noble metals have less tendency towards oxidation and are found close to the bottom of the activity series for example, gold.
