A substance that undergoes change during a reaction, usually from coming in contact with another substance
Answer:
Below are the statements which are true about the structure of the periodic table:
B: The inner transition elements are placed at the bottom of the periodic table for easy viewing.
D: The distribution of electrons in energy levels is responsible for the shape of the periodic table.
Explanation:
Point A:
As we know that in a periodic table there are 7 period s and 18 groups. So, the number of periods is evidently lesser than the number of groups. But the shape of periodic table is regular and rectangular so point A is false.
Point B:
The inner transition elements or -f block elements are put at the bottom for easy viewing. These are the elements that have the valence electrons only in the f-orbital's. Therefore, they are placed separately at the bottom side of the table so that they can be easily viewed or studied from there. So, point B is true.
Point C:
If we talk about option C, then it is very clear and true that considering a rectangular shape of the periodic table, the groups are vertically arranged and periods are horizontally arranged, therefore it is false.
Point D:
Atoms of all elements have definite electronic distribution in different energy levels like s, p d or f. This is a very prominent feature of periodic tale that elements are divided in specific blocks, s, p, d and f based on their electronic configurations. Therefore, it is true.
Point E:
We also know that no. of metals in a periodic table are more than the no. of non metals like almost 91 out of 118 elements are metals in periodic table. Therefore, the point E "Nonmetals take up more than half the area of the periodic table." is false.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
Explanation:
To solve the problem, we must know the kind of compounds we are dealing with.
For the first compound, P1 and second compound P2:
N O N O
Mass percent 64.17 35.73 47.23 52.79
Atomic mass 14 16 14 16
Number of
moles 64.17/14 35.73/16 47.23/14 52.79/16
4.58 2.23 3.37 3.30
Simplest
ratio 4.58/2.23 2.23/2.23 3.37/3.30 3.3/3.3
2 1 1 1
P1 compound is N₂O
P2 compound is NO
These are the compounds,
In N₂O = 28:16
NO = 14:16
This is the ratio of nitrogen to a fixed mass of oxygen for the two compounds.
