Answer:

S and p blocks elements are considered metals while d-block elements are considered transition metals.

Explanation:

s-block consist of lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium and francium metals.

All are these called alkali metals.

These metals have one valance electron.

These metals are soft and having low density.

They easily lose their one valance electron and form cation with +1 charge.

They have low melting points.

P- block elements includes beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, radium metals.

They are called alkaline earth metals.

All are these have two valance electrons.

They easily lose their valance electrons and form cation with charge of +2.

These metals are also very soft.

They form salt with halogens.

They are also very reactive metals.

Given 50.0 grams of Strontium, find grams of Phosphorus required for complete reaction

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

Explanation:

The balance chemical equation is as follow:

6 Sr + P4 → 2 Sr₃P₂

Step 1: Calculate moles of Sr as;

Moles = Mass / M/Mass

Moles = 50.0 g / 87.62 g/mol

Moles = 0.570 moles

Step 2: Find moles of P₄ as;

According to equation,

6 moles of Sr reacted with = 1 mole of P₄

So,

0.570 moles of Sr will react with = X moles of P₄

Solving for X,

X = 1 mol × 0.570 mol / 6 mol

X = 0.0952 mol of P₄

Step 3: Calculate mass of P₄ as,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.0952 mol × 123.89 g/mol

Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

Neutral atoms contain equal numbers of A protons and electrons. B protons and neutrons. C electrons and neutrons. D protons, ele

Verdich [7]

Answer:

For 1: The correct answer is Option A.

For 2: The correct answer is Option B.

For 3: The correct answer is Option C.

Explanation:

For 1:

Atomic number is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons that are present in a neutral atom. It is represented as Z.

Z = Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of protons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons present in an atom. It is represented as A.

A = Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

For 2:

The isotopic representation of an atom is: $_Z^A\textrm{X}$

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

We are given:

An isotopic representation of beryllium atom: $_4^9\textrm{Be}$

Thus, the number '4' represents the atomic number of beryllium, number '9' represents the mass number of beryllium atom.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

For 3:

In CO compound:

Mass of oxygen = 16 g

Mass of carbon = 12 g

In $CO_2$ compound:

Mass of oxygen = 32 g

Mass of carbon = 12 g

Thus, the ratio of mass of oxygen in $CO_2$ and CO is:

$CO_2:CO=32:16=2:1$

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

Why do atoms share electrons in covalent bonds??

ra1l [238]

Atoms in covalent bonds do combine so as to be stable. As covalent bond consist non metals e.g O2 in this example each atom has vacance of 2 orbitals/ electrons so shairing electrons result their stability
