A period is horizontal; the elements gain 1 proton for each space moving left to right.
A group is vertical; the elements in each group have the same number of electrons in the valence shell(outer orbital).

In the periodic table, the vertical columns are called the “groups” or sometimes referred as “families.” They are called this because they have similar chemical properties. The horizontal rows on the period table are called periods because they all have same exact number of electron shells.

Three samples of the same metal are weighed and their masses are found to be 44.40 g, 40.58 g, and 38.35 g. The corresponding vo
lidiya [134]

The density of a material is the mass of the material per unit volume. Here the weight of the same metal is 44.40g, 40.58g and 38.35g having volume 4.8 mL, 4.7 mL and 4.2 mL respectively. Thus the density of the metal as per the given data are, \frac{44.40}{4.8} = 9.25g/mL, \frac{40.58}{4.7} = 8.634g/mL and \frac{38.35}{4.2} = 9.130g/mL respectively.

The equation of the standard deviation is √{∑(x  - \frac{}{x})÷N}

Now the mean of the density is {(9.25 + 8.634 + 9.130)/3} = 9.004 g/mL.

The difference of the density of the 1st metal sample (9.25-9.004) = 0.246 g/mL. Squaring the value = 0.060.

The difference of the density of the 2nd metal sample (9.004-8.634) =0.37 g/mL. Squaring the value = 0.136.

The difference of the density of the 3rd metal sample (9.130-9.004) = 0.126 g/mL. Squaring the value 0.015.

The total value of the squared digits = (0.060 + 0.136 + 0.015) = 0.211. By dividing the digit by 3 we get, 0.070. The standard deviation will be \sqrt{0.070}=0.265. Thus the standard deviation of the density value is 0.265g/mL.

The solubility product for barium sulfate is 1.1 × 10–10. calculate the molar solubility of barium sulfate.
Triss [41]
When it comes to equilibrium reactions in chemistry, there are a lot of equilibrium constants that can be used. In the case of solubility, the appropriate one to use is the equilibrium constant of solubility product denotes as Ksp. This is the concentration of products raised to their coefficients. For example,

 cC ⇔ aA + bB 

Ksp = {[A^a][B^b]}

Now, for the this problem, the reaction is

BaSO₄ ⇔ Ba²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

The reaction is already balanced. Since we don't know the value of Ba²⁺ and SO₄²⁻, let's denote this at x.

1.1 × 10⁻¹⁰ = [x][x] =[x²]
[x] = [Ba²⁺] = [SO₄²⁻] = [BaSO₄] = 1.049 × 10⁻⁵ M
