Answer:

Iron, or Fe, has 26 electrons, with two electrons in the outer valence shell. Iron is a transition metal and is both lustrous and easy to work with. Iron is also prone to rust, especially in damp environments. Iron is a ferrous metal, meaning that it can be magnetized.

Answer:

Iron has a valency of 2+

Explanation:

The atomic number for Fe is 26, so that makes the electron configuration 2.8.8.8.2 so if you take the no. of electron it will be 2, so it will have to loose the two electrons in order to fill it's outermost electrons.

So it will develop a valency - 2+

Remember as you loose an electron the valency will be a positive but if you gain an electron the charge will be a negative

How does a system at equilibrium respond to the addition of more reactant
grin007 [14]

Answer:

It favors the forward reaction.

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier's Principle, when a system at equilibrium suffers a perturbation, the system will react in order to counteract the effect of such perturbation.

If more reactant is added, the system will try to decrease its concentration. It will do so by favoring the forward reaction, decreasing the concentration of the reactant  and increasing the concentration of the products, in order to re-establish the equilibrium.

How many liters are in 5.98 moles of nitrogen gas at STP?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is c) 134L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV =nRT. The normal conditions of temperature and pressure are 273K and 1 atm, we use the gas constant = 0, 082 l atm / K mol.

1 atm x   V = 5, 98 mol x 0, 082 l atm / K mol x 273 K

V = 5, 98 mol x 0, 082 l atm / K mol x 273 K / 1 atm

V = 133, 86828 l

What is meant by the term sensitivity in Analytical Chemistry? (a) The term refers to the limit at which the absorption instrume
ivolga24 [154]

The term sensitivity in Analytical Chemistry is "the slope of the calibration curve or a function of analyte concentration or amount".

<u>Answer:</u> Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a sample, the little amounts of substances can be accurately evaluated by a method is termed as "Analytical sensitivity". This detect a target analyte like an antibody or antigen, process is considered as potential of a test to and generally demonstrated as the analyte's minimum detectable concentration.

The acceptable diagnostic sensitivity is not guaranteed by high analytical sensitivity. The percentage of individuals who have a given disarray who are identified by the method as positive for the disarray is known as "Diagnostic sensitivity".

What is the name of CuO? Explain how you determined the bond type and the steps you used to determine the naming convention for
yulyashka [42]

The name of CuO is copper II oxide and its bond type is ionic or electrovalent bond.

<h3>What is electrovalent bond?</h3>

An ionic or electrovalent bond is the type of chemical bond where two atoms or molecules are connected to each other by electrostatic attraction.

This electrostatic attraction is as a result of the transfer of electrons from the metallic element to the non-metal.

According to this question, CuO is a chemical compound consisting of two elements namely; copper and oxygen. The compound name is copper II oxide.

Copper as a metal transfers electrons to oxygen atoms, hence, an ionic bond is formed between the molecules.

How many particles are in 1 mol of carbon? 1 mol of lithium? 1 mol of eggs? will 1 mol of each of these substances have the same
andrezito [222]
<span>One mole of a substance contains Avogadro's number of atoms/molecules/the like. This would mean that all of the items described would have approximately 6.022 * 10^23 atoms, even though their masses would differ. This would be due to the molar mass of each substance being different because of the constituent elements in the substance.</span>
