Take the attached picture of a periodic table as a guide. You are finding for a solid metal. Therefore, streamline your choices by looking at elements written in black bold letters, because they are all solid. Next, if you look at the center, the legend for metals are colors in orange, yellow, flesh, lavender, pink, and cyan blue. These region would be your choices. Next, you want to find a metal that is shiny and ductile. The shiny appearance is a common characteristic of luster by materials. Ductility is the ability of a metal to stretch when under tensile stress. These properties are best exhibited by metals in the transitions metals colored in pink. Therefore, the answer to your question would be any of the metal in the pink area. Examples are Titanium, Chromium, Gold, Silver, Platinum, Tungsten, etc.

Which of the following is the correct set up AND answer to convert 6.25 x

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

How many mols do you have?

1 mol = 6.02 * 10^23 atoms

x mol = 6.25 * 10 ^32 atoms

1/x = 6.02*10^23 / 6.25 * 10^32 Cross multiply

6.02 * 10^23 * x = 1 * 6.25 * 10^32 Divide by 6.02 * 10^23

x = 6.25 * 10*32/ 6.02 ^10^23

x = 1.038 * 10^9 mols which is quite large.

Find the number of grams. (Use the value for copper on your periodic table. I will just use an approximate number.)\

1 mol of copper = 63 grams.

1.038 * 10^9 mols of copper = x

1/1.038 * 10^9 = 63/x Cross multiply

x = 1.038 * 10^9 * 63

x = 6.54 * 10^10 grams of copper.

how to determine the aspects for core and valence electrons in a periodic table. How comes in some elements like cobalt the 3d i

dusya [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The electron configuration of an atom in an element determines the property of the atom. The core electrons are found inside the atom while the valence electrons are found on the outermost shell of the atom.

For cobalt, the outermost shell electron configuration is; [Ar] 3d7 4s2. The 3d7 and 4s2 are found in the valence shell of cobalt.

For arsenic, the electronic configuration is [Ar] 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p³. The valence electrons are 4s2, 4p3. The 3d electrons are found inside the arsenic atom.

Which of these solutions is the most basic?

dalvyx [7]

<h2>Question↷</h2>

Which of these solutions is the most basic?

[OH-] = 4.3 x 10-9 M

[OH-] = 2.8 x 10-11 M

[OH-] = 6.7 x 10-10 M

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M

<h2>Answer↷</h2>

<u>[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M</u> ✓

<h2>Solution↷</h2>

[OH-] = 4.3 x 10-9 M

[OH-] = 4.3 x 10^-9 M
pOH = - log [OH^1-]
pOH = - log [4.3 x 10^-9]
pOH = 8.36
pH = 14- 8.36
pH = 5.64

_______________________________________

[OH-] = 2.8 x 10-11 M

[OH-] = 2.8 x 10^-11 M
pOH = - log [OH^1-]
pOH = - log [2.8 x 10^-11 ]
pOH = 10.55
pH = 14-10.55
pH = 3.45

_______________________________________

[OH-] = 6.7 x 10-10 M

[OH-] = 6.7 x 10^-10 M
pOH = - log [OH^1-]
pOH = - log [6.7 x 10^-10]
pOH = 9.17
pH = 14-9.17
pH = 4.83

_______________________________________

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M

[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M
pOH = - log [OH^1-]
pOH = - log [1.0 x 10^-5 ]
pOH = 5
pH = 14-5
pH = 9

_______________________________________

we know that , the solution with <u>pH > 7</u> is termed as basic and more the pH ,more the basicity, hence ,the solution with the highest pH would be the strongest base out of these all which is

<u>[OH-] = 1.0 x 10-5 M</u> with pH = 9
