True or False? An elements reactivity id determined by the number of protons found in an atom of the element? PLEASE HELP ME

Chemistry

False, I think.
I would say it is determined by the number of electrons. The number of protons determines what element it is.
An element will try and fill it's outer shell, and so elements such as neon (a noble gas) is difficult to do anything with as it already has a full outer shell of 8 electrons. Something with 7 outer electrons, however, will be much more reactive as they will try to fill up that last space through a chemical bond.
Not sure if I explained that very well haha,
basically i would say false

3Fe + 4H2O Fe3O4 + 4H2
aalyn [17]
<span>These are five questions with its five answers.
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>First, we have to explain main question.
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
</span><span>The statement provides the chemical equation for the reaction of Fe with water to produce iron(III) oxide and hydrogen.
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
</span><span>Fe3O4 is a weird chemical formula. It belongs to the product named oxoiron.
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
Next, I have to tell how you must interpret the question. The five questions are based on the complete reaction of the same number of moles as the coefficients indicated in the chemical equation.
</span><span />

<span>Those coefficients are 3 for Fe, 4 for H₂O, 1 for Fe₃O₄ and 4 for H₂.


With that understood, let's work every question.


1) How many molecules of H₂ are produced?


Answer: 4 moles of molecules.

</span><span>Justification:
</span>

<span /><span /><span>This is, the number of moles of H₂ produced is given by the coefficient indicated in the chemical equation.
</span><span />

<span>2) How many oxygen atoms are required?
</span><span />

<span>Answer: 4.

</span><span>This is, the atoms of oxygen are supplied in the molecules of water. Since the coeffcient of water is 4, and each molecule o fwater has 1 atom of oxygen, 4 moles of water contain 4 moles of atoms of oxygen.
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
3) How many moles of Fe₃O₄ are formed?
</span><span />

<span>Answer: 1.
</span><span />

<span>Justification: the coefficient of for formula Fe₃O₄ is 1, indicating that the theoretical yield is 1 mol of molecules.
</span><span />

<span>4) What is the mole ratio of Fe to H₂O?
</span><span />

<span>Answer: 3:4
</span><span />

<span>Justification:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>The ratio is the quotient of the two coefficients: the coefficient of the Fe divided by the coefficient of the H₂O.
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
5) How many hydrogen atoms are involved in this reaction?
</span><span />

<span>Answer: 8 moles of hydrogen atoms.
</span><span />

<span>Justification: as you can see each molecule of H₂O has 2 atoms of hydrogen, then 4 moles of molecules of H₂O have 8 moles of atoms of hydrogen. And of course the same number are in the produt: 4 moles of H₂ contain 8 moles of atomos of hydrogen

xavier, yaozhou and zara had some beads. xavier and yaozhou had total of 438 beads. xavier and zara had total of 204 beads. youz
SVEN [57.7K]
To solve this problem, we need to set-up algebraic expression. First, use variables to represent the number of beads. 

Let: x = number of Xavier's beads
       y = number of Y<span>aozhou's beads
       z = number of Zara's beads

</span>It is important to note that since we have three unknowns, we should also have three independent equations. <span>Based on the given statements, we have the following three equations:

(1) x + y = 438
(2) x + z = 204
(3) y = 3z

Substitute y in terms of z in equation (1). Then multiply equation (2) with -1. 

x + 3z = 438
-(x + z = 204)
-------------------
      2z = 234
        z = 117

From equation (3),

y = 3(117) = 351

Using equation (1),

x = 438 - 351 = 87

Thus, Xavier had 87 beads.</span>
