Why might two elements posses similar chemical properties?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Tems11 [23]3 years ago
3 0

Same number of valence electrons

Explanation:

Two elements posses similar chemical properties if they have the same number of valence electrons.

Chemical properties of any substance is determined by the number of valence electrons it possesses in its outer most shell.

Elements use their valence electrons to form chemical bonds with one another.

Elements with the same number of valence electrons will chemically combine the same way.

This is why elements in the same group on the periodic table have the same chemical properties.

Through the complete electrolysis of a sample of pure water, a student collects 14.0 grams of hydrogen gas and 112.0 grams of ox
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

126.0g of water were initially present

Explanation:

The electrolysis of water occurs as follows:

2H₂O(l) ⇄ 2H₂(g) + O₂(g)

<em>Where 2 moles of water produce 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen.</em>

<em />

To find the mass of water we need to determine moles of oxygen and hydrogen, thus:

<em>Moles Hydrogen:</em>

14.0g H₂ ₓ (1mol / 2g H₂) = 7 moles H₂

<em>Moles Oxygen:</em>

112.0g O₂ ₓ (1mol / 32g) = 3.5 moles O₂

Based on the chemical equation, the moles of water initially present were 7 moles (That produce 7 moles H₂ and 3.5 moles O₂). The mass of 7 moles of H₂O is:

7 moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =

<h3>126.0g of water were initially present</h3>

Mass = 200.0 g volume = 100.0cm3 What is the density?
Marianna [84]
The density of an object is defined as its mass divided by its volume. Mathematically, density = Mass / Volume. The unit of density is kilogram per cubic meter, kg / m^3 or g /cm^3.
For the question given above: the 
Mass = 200.0 g
Volume = 100.0 cm^3
Therefore, Density = Mass / Volume = 200 / 100  = 2
Thus,  the density of the object is 2 g /cm^3.
