D. I or Iodine

This is because they are both in the same periodic family (the halogens) and thus the number of valence electrons are the same

Answer: (4) I (iodine)

Explanation:

Reactivity of elements follow a trend in such a manner that elements in the same group have similar chemical properties since they react in similar ways during chemical reaction. This similarity is as a result of the same number of valence electrons they have in their respective outer shell. This particular similarity is what classifies them into groups.

In this question, Chlorine is in the same group with Iodine and they're referred to as "halogens" and all halogen have similar chemical reactions. Example, they seek one valence electron to be stable. Easy formation of salts with metals etc

Write the precipitation reaction for cobalt(II) hydroxide in aqueous solution: Be sure to specify the state of each reactant and
Len [333]

Answer:

The equation for the precipitation reaction of cobalt (ii) hydroxide is given below:

CoSO₄ (aq) + NaOH (aq) ----> Co(OH)₂ (s) + Na₂SO₄ (aq)

Explanation:

Cobalt (ii) hydroxide is an inorganic compound consisting of cobalt (ii) ions, Co²+ and hydroxide ions, OH-. It is insoluble in water and the pure form known as the beta form is a pink-coloured solid. The impure form which incorporates other anions in its molecular structure is blue in colour and is ustable.

Cobalt (ii) hydroxide is formed as precipitate when an alkaline metallic hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide is mixed with an aqueous cobalt (ii) salt such as cobalt (ii) sulfate. The equation for the precipitation reaction of cobalt (ii) hydroxide is given below:

CoSO₄ (aq) + NaOH (aq) ----> Co(OH)₂ (s) + Na₂SO₄ (aq)

Being a basic hydroxide, cobalt (ii) hydroxide neutralizes acids to form cobalt (ii) salts and water. For example: Co(OH)₂ (s) + H₂SO₄ (aq) ---> CoSO₄ (aq) + H₂O

Thus, cobalt (ii) hydroxide is soluble in acids.

Cobalt(II) hydroxide is used mostly as a drying agent for paints, varnishes, and inks. It is also useful in the preparation of other cobalt compounds.

What is 2.75 mol of O2
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

2,75 mol of O2 it's 88 g of O2.

Explanation:

The weight of the diatomic molecule O2 is 32 g/mol. So considering that, you should multiply 2,75 mol · 32 = 88g :)

The compound C2E10H12 (where E is an element) has a formula mass of approximately 144 g/mol. What is the atomic mass of E?
amid [387]

Answer:

Explanation:

C₂E₁₀H₁₂  = 144

molecular weight of given compound

= 2 x 12 + 10 x E + 12 x 1 = 144 ( atomic weight of C = 12 , H = 1 , E = E )

24 + 10 E + 12 = 144

10 E = 108

E = 10.8

Atomic mass of E = 10.8 u .
