FOCUS QUESTION Why do elements in the same group have similar properties?

Chemistry
2 answers:
SIZIF [17.4K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  1. Elements of the  the same group have similar number of valence electrons.
  2. They have identical number of electrons in their outermost shell. For example ;  All the alkali metals in Group 1 have 1 valence electron.

And so many more.

Due to all these similarities ,they have similar  properties and they tend to react similarly with other substances.

Answer:

The number of valence electrons.

Explanation:

Electrons mainly have to do with the reactions and how bonds are formed between elements. Elements are placed in groups based on the number of valence electrons. The number of valence electrons determine the element's properties such as its reactivity with other elements. Therefore, the reason why elements in the same group have similar properties is because each group has the same amount of valence electrons (number of electrons in outermost shell) which affects its properties.

In a titration of nitrous acid with NaOH, the pH of the solution is 3.14 when the moles of HNO2 and the moles of NO2-- are equal
jonny [76]

Answer:

Ka=3.98x10^{-4}

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the modelling of titration problems can be approached via the Henderson-Hasselbach equation to set up a relationship between pH, pKa and the concentration of the acid and its conjugate base, we can write:

pH=pKa+log(\frac{[NO_2^-]}{[HNO_2]} )

Whereas the pH is given as 3.14 and the concentrations are the same, that is why the pH would be equal to the pKa as the logarithm gets 0 (log(1)=0); thus, we can calculate the Ka via:

Ka=10^{-pKa}=10^{-3.14}\\\\Ka=3.98x10^{-4}

Best regards!

) A children’s liquid cold medicine has a density of 1.23 g/mL. If a child is to take 2.5 tsp in a dose, what is the mass in gra
vekshin1

The relation between density and mass and volume is

Density=\frac{Mass}{volume}

the dose required is 2.5 tsp

each tsp contain 5mL

So dose required in mL = 2.5 X 5 = 12.5 mL

the mass will be calculated using following formula

Mass=DensityXvolume

Mass=1.23\frac{g}{mL}X12.5mL= 15.38g

The mass of dose in grams will be 15.38 g

A solution was made by mixing 60.5 g of glucose (C6H12O6) with enough water to make 325 ml of solution. What is the percent (mas
IgorC [24]

mass percent concentration = 15.7 %

molar concentration of glucose solution 1.03 M

Explanation:

To calculate the mass percent concentration of the solution we use the following formula:

concentration = (solute mass / solution mass) × 100

solute mass = 60.5 g

solution mass = solute mass + water mass

solution mass = 60.5 + 325 = 385.5 g (I used the assumption that the solution have a density of 1 g/mL)

concentration = (60.5 / 385.5) × 100 = 15.7 %

Now to calculate the molar concentration (molarity) of the solution we use the following formula:

molar concentration = number of moles / volume (L)

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

number of moles of glucose = 60.5 / 180 = 0.336 moles

molar concentration of glucose solution = 0.336 / 0.325 = 1.03 M
