Looking at the same nonmetal group on the periodic table, how does the reactivity of an element in period 2 compare to the react

ivity of an element in period 4?
Chemistry

N76 [4]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The period 2 element would be more reactive because the attractive force of protons is stronger when electrons are attracted to a closer electron shell.

Explanation:

Nonmetals want to add more electrons to their valence electron shell. Elements in period 2 have their valence shell closer their nucleus, then they are more reactive than period 4 elements.

Select the following statements that are true. Select all that apply.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The statements which are true among these are: (a),(b) and (c) because,

(a) The simplest organic compounds which contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms are called hydrocarbons.

(b) The IUPAC naming of organic compounds have some rules for the naming of compounds, which consists of

  • Finding the longest chain present in the compound called parent chain.
  • A prefix for any substituent attach to the parent chain.

And lastly a suffix for the type of bond that molecule have.

(c) Isomers are the compound which same same molecular formula but different arrangement of molecules, due to this different arrangement they have different physical and chemical properties.

When designing an engineering solution, certain criteria and constraints must be considered. Criteria are the features of the de
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The criteria listed in order of importance are;

1) To be inflated in the event of a collision in order to protect the occupants of the front of the vehicle

2) To be able to withstand the load of the breaking force of the occupants in the front seat of the vehicle during a collision

3) To be relatively tough so as to resist being torn on impact with a sharp object

The constraints listed in order of importance are;

1) How is the model design able to sense a collision that requires the airbag to be inflated

2) The uncertainty of the load the airbag will withstand upon collision

3) The possible hazard that could be caused by the gas used to inflate the airbag

4) The usage/interaction tendency between the vehicle occupant and the airbag system

Explanation:

In order to produce an effective design, it is important to be able to foresee the possible deficiencies of an idea so as to be able to mitigate the problems before an actual incident happens.

In the simple act of lighting a match, chemical energy stored in the match head is transformed into heat and light. What is true
harina [27]

The head of a matchstick has a great deal of chemical energy stored in it, including combustible substances that produce a flame when rubbed against a suitable surface. ... As the combustible materials burn, some of the chemical energy is transformed into heat energy, and some is transformed into light energy. Hope this helps

In balancing reactions, the number of atoms on each side should be of equal number. It is the most important rule in reactions. Also, we should know the correct substances involved in the reaction. We do as follows:

2K + MgBr2 = 2KBr + Mg

Match the following reactions with the reaction type. You may use each type more than once.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1) Decomposition

2)Double-replacement reaction

3)synthesis

4)Double-replacement reaction

5)single-replacement reaction

6)Double-replacement reaction

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Synthesis: This is a reaction where two or more reactants will combine to form a new, single product. This is  occurs when two or more reactants combine to form a single product.  This can be shown with the following equation.

A + B → C

A and B are the reactants to form a new product C

Decomposition: This is a reaction where 1 (more complex) compound will be broken down into 2 or more (more simple)  products.

This can be shown by the following equation:

AB → A + B

A single replacement: This is a reaction where one element wil be replaced by another element in the same compound. This can be shown by the following equation:

A + BC → B + AC

Here is the elemnt B in the compound BC, replaced by the element A, to form a new compound AC

A double-replacement: This is a reaction where the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds will be exchanged and 2 new compounds willbe formed. This can be shown by the following equation:

AB+CD→AD+BC

A combustion reaction requires oxygen gas (O2) to produce the  products CO2 and H2O

Step 2:

1) 2HgO(s) → 2Hg(l) + O2(g)

⇒ Decomposition

2) KCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgCl(s) + KNO3(aq)

⇒  Double-replacement reaction

3) 2Na(s) + H2(g) → 2NaH(s)

⇒ synthesis

4) Mg(OH)2(aq) + 2HNO2(aq) → Mg(NO2)2(aq) + 2 H2O(l)

⇒  Double-replacement reaction

5) Ca(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) → Ca(NO3)2(aq) + Ag(s)

⇒  Single-replacement reaction

6) Al2O3(s) + H2SO4(aq) → Al2(SO4)3(aq) + H2O(l)

⇒  Double-replacement reaction
