Answer:-

Metalloids

Explanation:-

The stair step line is a line in the periodic table that divides the metals on one side and the non metals on the other side. So the elements which lie on the stair step line must have properties in between those exhibited by the metals and those by the non metals.

Such elements we know are called metalloids. Thus In the periodic table, the elements that are adjacent to the "stair step" are called metalloids.

Investigate: Press Reset. Start with 2.000 moles of sulfur, then press Start. How many atoms do you think this amount represents
Scilla [17]

Answer:

1.204428 * 10^24 atoms

Explanation:

Number of moles = 2 mol

Number of atoms = ?

The relationship between moles and atoms is given by the avogadro's umber. This is the number of units in one mole of a substance.  The units can be atoms, ions etc In this case it is atoms. The number is equal to  6.02214076 * 10^23

This means;

1 mol = 6.02214076 * 10^23

2 mol = x

Upon solving for x,

x = 2 * 6.02214076 * 10^23

x = 12.04428 * 10^23

x = 1.204428 * 10^24 atoms
