What is the difference between a period and a group in the periodic table?

2 answers:

6 0

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.

The reaction of benzaldehyde with acetone and sodium hydroxide produces ____________ This is an example of ____________ reaction

timofeeve [1]

The reaction of benzaldehyde with acetone and sodium hydroxide produces DibenzalacetoneThis is an example of an aldol condensation reaction.

Chemical reactions often involve color changes, temperature changes, gas evolution, or precipitate formation. Simple examples of everyday reactions are digestion, combustion, and cooking. As the name suggests, simple reactants produce or synthesize more complex products. The basic form of a synthetic reaction is A + B → AB. A simple example of a synthetic reaction is the formation of water from its elements hydrogen and oxygen: 2 H2(g) + O2(g) → 2 H2O(g).

A physical reaction is a reaction in which a change in the physical properties of matter or substances occurs. Physical properties include density, mass, and volume. The definition of a physical reaction is a reaction in which molecules undergo molecular rearrangements but do not change chemically.

A solution of toilet bowl cleaner has PH of 13 the solution is?

AlladinOne [14]

The solution is an alkali.

Usually with the pH value range of 14, substances with pH 7 can be called neutral. Meanwhile substances lower than pH 7 are acids, the lower the pH is, the more acidic it is. Such as cola, it has a pH 2, which is very acidic.
In opposite, the substances with pH over 7 are called alkalis. Again, the larger the pH value is, the more alkaline it is. So pH 13 is a strong alkaline therefore it it corrosive and can clean the toilet well.

The mass lost by the positive electron should equal the mass gained by the negative electrode suggest two reasons why the result

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The gain in mass by the negative electrode is the same as the loss in mass by the positive electrode. So the copper deposited on the negative electrode must be the same copper ions that are lost from the positive electrode.

A reactant decomposes with a half-life of 29.5 s when its initial concentration is 0.229 M. When the initial concentration is 0.

Dmitrij [34]

Answer :

The order of reaction is, 0 (zero order reaction).

The value of rate constant is, $0.00388Ms^{-1}$

Explanation :

Half life : It is defined as the time in which the concentration of a reactant is reduced to half of its original value.

The general expression of half-life for nth order is:

$t_{1/2}\propto \frac{1}{[A_o]^{n-1}}$

or,

$\frac{t_{1/2}_1}{t_{1/2}_2}=\frac{[A_2]^{n-1}}{[A_1]^{n-1}}$

or,

$n=\left(\frac{\log\frac{(t_{1/2})_1}{(t_{1/2})_2}}{\log\frac{(A)_2}{(A)_1}}\right )+1$ .............(1)

where,

$t_{1/2}$ = half-life of the reaction

n = order of reaction

[A] = concentration

As we are given:

Initial concentration of A = 0.229 M

Final concentration of A = 0.639 M

Initial half-life of the reaction = 29.5 s

Final half-life of the reaction = 82.3 s

Now put all the given values in the above formula 1, we get:

$n=\left (\frac{\log \frac{29.5}{82.3}}{\log\frac{0.639}{0.229}}\right )+1$

$n=0.000196\approx 0$

Thus, the order of reaction is, 0 (zero order reaction).

Now we have to determine the rate constant.

To calculate the rate constant for zero order the expression will be:

$t_{1/2}=\frac{[A_o]}{2k}$

When,

$t_{1/2}$ = 29.5 s

$[A_o]$ = 0.229 M

$29.5s=\frac{0.229M}{2k}$

$k=0.00388Ms^{-1}$

Thus, the value of rate constant is, $0.00388Ms^{-1}$

Which Locations are likely to have subatomic particles with the GREATEST mass?

wlad13 [49]

2 and 3, because there are the protons and neutrons which have a greater mass than the electrons which are found in the locations 1 and 4.

Explanation:

The atom contains a nucleus, which is made from protons and neutrons, and electrons which are found around the nucleus.

The mass of the atoms is concentrated in the very tiny space represented by the nucleus. Of course the electrons have a mass too, but is very small compared to the protons and neutrons, and we usually neglect its mass.
