Answer:-

Metalloids

Explanation: -

Metalloids are elements with properties that are somewhat in between those that of metals and non metals. They have generally 4 or 5 electrons in their valence shell for up to the 4th period to be called a metalloid. From the fifth period 6 valence electrons can make an element metalloid.

From the sixth even 7 valence electrons can make an element metalloid

The electronic configuration of Germanium is

2,8,18, 4

So it is a metalloid.

The electronic configuration of tellurium,

2,8,18, 18, 6

So it is a metalloid.

The electronic configuration of Arsenic

2,8,18, 5

So it is a metalloid.

The electronic configuration of astatine

2,8,18, 32, 18, 7

So it is a metalloid.

How many seconds does it take to deposit 0.94 g of Ni on a decorative drawer handle when 14.9 A is passed through a Ni(NO3)2 sol

Goshia [24]

Answer:

Time take to deposit Ni is 259.02 sec.

Explanation:

Given:

Current $I = 14.9$ A

Faraday constant $= 96485$ $\frac{C}{mole}$

Molar mass of Ni $= 58.69$ $\frac{g}{mole}$

Mass of Ni $= 0.94$ g

First find the no. moles in Ni solution,

Moles of Ni $= \frac{0.94}{58.69}$

$= 0.02$ mol

From the below reaction,

$Ni^{2+} + 2e$ ⇆ $Ni_{(s)}$

Above reaction shows "1 mol of $Ni^{2+}$ requires 2 mol of electron to form 1 mol of $Ni_{(s)}$ "

So for finding charge flow in this reaction we write,

$=$ $0.02 \times \frac{2 }{1 } \times 96485 \frac{C}{mol}$

Charge flow $= 3859.4$ C

For finding time of reaction,

$I = \frac{q}{t}$

Where $q =$ charge flow

$t = \frac{q}{I}$

$t = \frac{3859.4}{14.9}$

$t = 259.02$ sec

Therefore, time take to deposit Ni is 259.02 sec.
