At room temperature, O2 is in gaseous state.

a gas has no definite volume or definite shape. It occupies volume of container and attains shape of container only.

Thus

It has no definite volume and takes the shape of its container.

Its particles move fast enough to overcome the attraction between them.: the gas molecules have minimum intermolecular interactions and have high kinetic energy.

It has more energy than it would at a cooler temperature: the kinetic energy of gas molecules increases with increase in temperature. Thus the energy increases with temperature and decreases with decrease in temperature.

Classify each element. Note that another term for main group is representative, another term for semimetal is metalloid, and the

NikAS [45]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Classify each element. Note that another term for main group is representative, another term for semi-metal is metalloid, and the inner transition metals are also called the lanthanide and actinide series.

Hf, Am, In, Ta, As, Se, Rn

Answer:

Hafnium and tantalum are transition elements.

Americium is a inner transition element.

Indium, Selenium and Radon are main group elements.

Arsenic is a metalloid.

Explanation:

Main group elements are the elements which belong to s block and p block. They are also known as representative elements.

S-block elements are defined as the elements whose last electron enters s-sub shell. The general electronic configuration of these elements is $ns^{1-2}$

P-block elements are defined as the elements whose last electron enters p-sub shell. The general electronic configuration of these elements is $np^{1-6}$

Metalloids are defined as the elements which show intermediate properties between metals and non-metals. There are 7 metalloids in the periodic table. They are: Boron, Silicon, germanium, Arsenic, Antimony, Tellurium and Polonium.

Transition elements are known as d-block elements. D block elements are defined as the elements whose last electron enters d sub shell. The general electronic configuration of these elements is $[(n-1)d^{1-10}ns^{0-2}]$

Inner transition elements are known as (f block) elements. (F block) elements are defined as the elements whose last electron enters (f subshell). The general electronic configuration of these elements is $[(n-2)f^{1-14}(n-1)d^{0-1}ns^{2}]$ . They are also known as lanthanide and actinide series.

For the given elements:

Option 1: Hf

Hafnium is the 72nd element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $[Xe]4f^{14}5d^26s^2$

As, the last electron is entering the d subshell, it is a transition element.

Option 2: Am

Americium is the 95th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $[Rn]5f^{7}6d^07s^2$

As, the last electron is entering the (f subshell), it is a inner transition element.

Option 3: In

Indium is the 49th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $[Kr]5s^25p^1$

As, the last electron is entering the p subshell, it is a main group element.

Option 4: Ta

Tantalum is the 73rd element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $[Xe]4f^{14}5d^56s^2$

As, the last electron is entering the d subshell, it is a transition element.

Option 5: As

Arsenic is the 33rd element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $[Ar]4s^24p^3$

As, the last electron is entering the p subshell, it is a main group element. It shows an intermediate property of metal and non-metal. Thus, it is a metalloid.

Option 6: Se

Selenium is the 34th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $[Ar]4s^24p^4$

As, the last electron is entering the p subshell, it is a main group element.

Option 7: Rn

Radon is the 86th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of $[Xe]4f^{14}5d^{10}6s^26p^6$

As, the last electron is entering the p subshell, it is a main group element.

What causes a substance to be hydrophobic?

WITCHER [35]

The hydrophobic effect is caused by nonpolar molecules clumping together. Large macromolecules can have hydrophobic sections, which will fold the molecule so they can be close to each other, away from water. Many amino acids in proteins are hydrophobic, helping the proteins obtain their complicated shapes. The hydrophobic effect extends to organisms, as many hydrophobic molecules on the surface of an organisms help them regulate the amount of water and nutrients in their systems.

Match each term below with its definition or description.

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

1. Equivalence point

2. Direct titration

3. Primary standard

4. Titrand

5. Back titration

6. Standard solution

7. Titrant

8. Indirect titration

9. End point

10. Indicator

Explanation:

1. The equivalence point is the tiration point at which the quantity or moles of the added titrant is sufficient or equal to the quantity or moles of the analyte for the neutralization of the solution of the analyte.

2. Direct titration is a method of quantitatively determining the contents of a substance

3. A primary standard is an easily weigh-able representative of the mount of moles contained in a substance

4. A titrand is the substance of unknown concentration which is to be determined

5. The titration method that uses a given amount of an excess reagent to determine the concentration of an analyte is known as back titration

6. A standard solution is a solution of accurately known concentration

7. A titrant is a solution that has a known concentration and which is titrated unto another solution to determine the concentration of the second solution

8. Indirect titration is the process of performing a titration in athe reverse order

9. The end point is the point at which the indicator indicates that the equivalent quantities of the reagents required for a complete reaction has been added

10 An indicator is a compound used to visually determine the pH of a solution.

If 13.8 moles of carbon (c), with a density of 2.26 g/ml, are needed for a chemical reaction, how many milliliters of carbon are

charle [14.2K]

13.8 moles of carbon = 12 g/mol*13.8 or 165.6 grams

165.6 grams/ 2.26 g/mL = 73.27434 or 73.3 mL

I hope this helps!!!!
