Explanation:

Metals are the substances that contain excess of electrons.

For example, sodium is a metals that has atomic number 11 and its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 1. It has one extra electron in its valence shell and in order to attain stability it loses it valence electron readily.

Whereas non-metals are the substances that contain less number of electrons as compared to metals.

For example, chlorine is a non-metal that has atomic number 17 and its electronic configuration is 2, 8, 7. It needs one more electron to completely fill its valence shell.

On the other hand, noble gases are the gases that contain completely filled shells. Hence, they neither need to gain or lose an electron in order to gain stability. They are stable themselves.

Thus, we can conclude that metals is the family that generally has the valence electrons which are the easiest to remove from the atom.

timurjin [86]
In a closed system, heat should be conserved which means that the heat produced in the calorimeter is equal to the heat released by the combustion reaction. We calculate as follows:

Heat of the combustion reaction = mC(T2-T1)
                                                          = 1 (1.50) (41-21)

Solid iron (III) oxide reacts with hydrogen gas to form iron and water. How many grams of iron are produced when 440.23 grams of
Nookie1986 [14]

When 440.23 grams of iron(III) oxide are reacted with hydrogen gas, the amount of iron produced will be 307.66 grams

<h3>Stoichiometric calculation</h3>

From the equation of the reaction:

Fe_2O_3 + 3H_2 --- > 2Fe + 3H_2O

The mole ratio of iron(III) oxide to produced iron is 1:2.

Mole of 440.23 iron(III) oxide = 440.23/159.69 = 2.76 moles

Equivalent mole of produced iron = 2.76 x 2 = 5.52 moles

Mass of 5.52 moles of iron = 5.52 x 55.8 = 307.66 grams

Gnom [1K]
A phylogenetic tree may be built using morphological (body shape), biochemical, behavioral, or molecular features of species or other groups. In building a tree, we organize species into nested groups based on shared derived traits (traits different from those of the group's ancestor).
