Answer is: Cl and Na.

sodium and chlorine are in third period and they have very different properties. Sodium is solid metal and chlorine is gaseous nonmetal.

They form compound NaCl (Sodium chloride), because sodium lost one valence electron and form cation Na⁺, chlorine gain one electron and form anion Cl⁻.

Electron configuration of sodium atom: ₁₁Na 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹.

Electron configuration of chlorine atom: ₁₇Cl 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵.

Other examples are metal-metal pairs and they do not form cation and anion.

Choose the weaker acid in each of the following pairs:H₂SO₃ or H₂SO₄
WINSTONCH [101]

H₂SO₃ is weaker acid than  H₂SO₄.

The bonding power of an acid is typically influenced by the size of the "SO₄" atom; the smaller the "SO₄" atom, the stronger the H-A bond. The atoms get larger and the bonds get weaker as you proceed down a row in the Periodic Table, strengthening the acids.

<h3>Describe acid.</h3>

The term "acid" refers to any molecule or ion that can donate a proton (a Brnsted-Lowry acid) or establish a covalent bond with an electron pair (a Lewis acid). The first class of acids is the proton donors, also known as Brnsted-Lowry acids.

Its chemical name is lysergic acid diethylamide, or LSD as it is more often known. Because it has a potent hallucinogenic impact, using it could alter how you see the world and its objects. The effects of LSD are referred to as tripping.

The term "acid" is frequently used to denote aqueous solutions of acids with a pH lower than 8, even though the technical meaning of the term only pertains to the solute.

Niobium-91 has a half-life of 680 years. After 2,040 years, how much niobium-91 will remain from a 300.0-g sample? 3 g 18.75 g 3
Vadim26 [7]
Amount of Niobium-91 initially
= 300/91 =3.2967mol
2040 years = 3 ×680 = 3 half-lives
therefore, amount left = 0.4121mol
mass of Niobium-91 remaining = 0.4121 ×91 =37.5g
