Answer: The element having similar chemical properties that of calcium present in period 3 is magnesium.

Explanation:

In a periodic table, elements are arranged in 18 vertical columns known as groups and 7 horizontal rows known as periods.

Elements arranged in a group show similar chemical properties because of the presence of same number of valence electrons.

We are given:

Calcium is the 20th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^2$

It has 2 valence electrons.

The element present in period 3 and have the same number of valence electron or in the same group is magnesium.

Hence, the element having similar chemical properties that of calcium present in period 3 is magnesium.

A buffer is prepared by dissolving honh2 and honh3no3 in some water. write equations to show how this buffer neutralizes added h

Anestetic [448]

Hydroxylamine in water: HONH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ HONH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).
Hydroxylammonium nitrate in water: HONH₃NO₃(aq) → OHNH₃⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq).
1) with positive hydrogen ions (protons) react base and gives weak conjugate acid:
H⁺(aq) + HONH₂(aq) ⇄ HONH₃⁺(aq).
2) with hydroxide anions react acid and produce weak base and weak electrolyte water:
HONH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) ⇄ HONH₂(aq) + H₂O(l).

Distillation is a method that depends on differences in the boiling points of liquids to separate the components of a liquid mix

ryzh [129]

Explanation:

for immiscible liquids it is quite easy to separate and the separating funnel can be used but for miscible liquid they form a single entity and separating them is quite impossible if the differences in temperature is not considered,so in distillation the one with lower boiling point evaporates out living behind the one with high boiling point

How many moles of carbon atoms are combined with 11.2 moles of hydrogen atoms in a sample of the compound, C3H8?

lozanna [386]

The compound with a chemical formula of C₃H₈ is propane. The subscripts actually represent the number of the individual atoms in 1 particle of the compound. Since there are the same number of atoms per mole of any substance, the subscript can also represent the moles. Through stoichiometric calculations, the solution is as follows:

Moles of Carbon = 11.2 moles H * 3 mol C/8 mol H = 4.2 moles
