Answer:
            Sulfur (Option-C) <span>exhibits chemical behavior similar to that of oxygen.

Explanation:
                   Sulfur has same chemical properties as that of Oxygen because both of them belongs to same group in the periodic table. Also, the similarity of chemical behaviour among the group members is due to same number of electrons in their valence shells.
For examole, the electronic configuration of Oxygen is,

                                        1s</span>², 2s², 2p⁴

There are six valence electrons in the valence shell (i.e. 2) of Oxygen.

Now for Sulfur,
                                        1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁴

There are six valence electrons in the valence shell (i.e. 3) of Sulfur.

Therefore, both elements tends to gain 2 electrons in a reaction and form O⁻² and S⁻² respectively.

You bought a new fish aquarium with the dimensions of 55 cm x 100 cm x 80 cm. what volume of water should you put in it? Show yo
harina [27]
Since its volume you do what it says 55 cm x 100 cm x 80cm and do 100 x 50 which is 5,000. then 5,000 x 80 which is 40,000. sorry i cant show work on here.

One mole of a metallic oxide reacts with one mole of hydrogen to produce two moles of the pure metal
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Lithium oxide, Li₂O.  

Explanation:

Hello!  

In this case, according to the given amounts, it is possible to write down the chemical reaction as shown below:

M_2O+H_2\rightarrow 2M+H_2O  

Which means that the metallic oxide has the following formula: M₂O. Next, we can set up the following proportional factors according to the chemical reaction:

5.00gM_2O*\frac{1molM_2O}{(2*X+16)gM_2O}*\frac{2molM}{1molM_2O}*\frac{XgM}{1molM}=2.32gM  

Thus, we perform the operations in order to obtain:

\frac{10X}{(2X+16)}=2.32  

So we solve for x as shown below:

10X=2.32(2X+16)\\\\10X=4.64X+37.12\\\\X=\frac{37.12}{10-4.64}\\\\X= 6.93g/mol  

Whose molar mass corresponds to lithium, and therefore, the metallic oxide is lithium oxide, Li₂O.  

Best regards!
