The question is incomplete. Complete question is:
Which list represents the classification of the elements nitrogen, neon, magnesium, and silicon, respectively?
(1) metal, metalloid, nonmetal, noble gas
(2) nonmetal, noble gas, metal, metalloid
(3) nonmetal, metalloid, noble gas, metal
(4) noble gas, metal, metalloid, nonmetal
.................................................................................................................

Answer: The correct answer is option 2) nonmetal, noble gas, metal, metalloid

Reason: 
1) Non-metal are bad conductors of electricity. Also non-metal are electronegative in nature. Hence, among the provided elements, nitrogen satisfied the criteria. Hence, it is a non-metal.

2) Noble gas are the elements which have completely filled outermost shell. Hence, among the provided elements, Neon satisfied the criteria.

3) Metal are good conductors of electricity. Also metal are electropositive in nature. Hence, among the provided elements, magnesium satisfied the criteria. Hence, it is a metal.

4) Metalloid have conductivity better than non-metals but poor than conductors. Hence, among the provided elements, Silicon satisfied the criteria. Hence, it is a metalloid.

Sulfur and oxygen react to produce sulfur trioxide. In a particular experiment, 7.9 grams of SO3 are produced by the reaction of
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

\%\, yield\, \, SO_3=82.29

Explanation:

First write the balance eqation of chemical reaction:

2S(s) +3O_2(g) \rightarrow 2SO_3(g)

Remember writing any chemical reaction from its  elemetal form then write the elements in their natural form i.e. how that element exists in the nature here sulphur exists in solid monoatomic form in the nature and oxygen in gaseous diatomic form.

mass of oxygen given=5gram

mole of oxygen=5/32mol=0.16mol

mass of sulpher given=6gram

mole of sulpher=6/32mol=0.19mol

from the above balanced equaion;

2 mole of sulphur reacts with 3 mole Oxygen completely

1 mole of sulphur reacts with 1.5 mole Oxygen completely

0.19 mole of sulphur reacts with 1.5\times 0.19 i.e. 0.285 mole Oxygen completely.

but we have 0.16 mole so oxygen will be the limiting reagent and sulpher will be the excess reagent

so product will depend on the limiting reagent

from the balance equation

3 mole of sulpher gives 2 mole SO_3

1 mole of sulpher will give 2/3 mole SO_3

0.16 of sulpher will give 0.12 mole SO_3

mass of SO_3=9.6gram this is theoreical production of SO_3

and

actual production of SO_3 =7.9gram

\%\, yield   \,\, SO_3=\frac{Actual \,yield}{theoretical\, yield}\times 100

\%\, yield\, \, SO_3=\frac{7.9}{9.6} \times 100=82.29

\%\, yield\, \, SO_3=82.29

A sealed flask contains Ne, Ar, and Kr gas. If the total pressure in the flask is 3.782 atm, the partial pressure of Ne is 0.435
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

P_{Ar}=1.734atm = partial pressure of Ar

Explanation:

Acccoding to dalton's law of partial pressure total pressure of system is equal to alzebraic sum of all partial pressure.

P_{total} =P_{Ne}+P_{Ar} +P_{Kr}

P_{total}=3.782atm

P_{Ne}=0.435 atm

P_{Kr}=1.613atm

P_{Ar}=P_{total}-P_{Ne}-P_{Kr}

P_{Ar}=3.782-0.435-1.613

P_{Ar}=1.734atm =partial pressure of Ar

The _____ carries no electrical charge in the atom. electron proton gluon neutron
vovikov84 [41]
The proton has a positive charge and the election balances out the proton by being negatively charged. The neutral charge, meaning it is neither positively or negatively charged. A good way to remember is to think that the neutron is neutral.
