Answer:

The period 4 alkaline-earth metal has the name Calcium. An isotope of this element having 20 neutrons has a mass number of 40.

Explanation:

Looking at the periodic table 4th row for the alkaline-earth metal, we can find Calcium which has an atomic number of 20 (or protons number, or z). The mass number is given by the sum of protons and neutrons. If the number of protons in this case is 20 and the number of neutrons is also 20, the mass number A = 40.

20.00 g of aluminum (Al) reacts with 78.78 grams of molecular chlorine (Cl2), all of each reaction is completely consumed and as
shepuryov [24]

The reaction forms 98.76 g AlCl_3.  

We have the masses of two reactants, so this is a <em>limiting reactant problem</em>.

We know that we will need a balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses of the compounds involved.  

<em>Step 1. Gather all the information</em> in one place with molar masses above the formulas and everything else below them.  

M_r: ___26.98 _70.91 __133.34

________2Al + 3Cl_2 → 2AlCl_3

Mass/g: 20.00 _78.78

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>moles of each reactant</em>  

Moles of Al = 20.00 g Al × (1 mol Al /26.98 g Al) = 0.741 29 mol Al

Moles of Cl_2 = 78.78 g Cl_2 × (1 mol Cl_2 /70.91 g Cl_2) = 1.11 10 mol Cl_2

Step 3. Identify the <em>limiting reactant</em>  

Calculate the moles of AlCl_3 we can obtain from each reactant.  

<em>From Al</em>: Moles of AlCl_3 = 0.741 29 mol Al × (2 mol AlCl_3/2 mol Al) = 0.741 29 mol AlCl_3

<em>From Cl_2</em>: Moles of AlCl_3 = 1.11 10 mol Cl_2 × (2 mol AlCl_3/3 mol Cl_2) = 0.740 66 mol AlCl_3

<em>Cl_2 is the limiting reactant</em> because it gives the smaller amount of AlCl_3.

<em>Step 4</em>. Calculate the <em>mass of AlCl_3</em>.

Mass = 0.740 66 mol AlCl_3 × 133.34 g/1 mol AlCl_3 = 98.76 g AlCl_3

The reaction produces 98.76 g AlCl_3.

Here is Beck's address:
777dan777 [17]

Hi! My answer would be D, USA.


Explanation:


We are provided with 5 pieces of an address. They are as followed.

12 Riverdale Lane, Apartment A, San Jose, California, and USA.


Imagine each of the five parts of Beck's address represents Earth, the Milky Way, the moon, the solar system, or the universe, based on their sizes. Which of the following parts of Beck's address would represent the solar system?



If we have to plug in Earth, the Milky Way, the moon, the solar system, and the universe, (all based on size,) we would first start with what "Apartment A" would be in this scenario. Apartment A is the smallest piece we have to work with, and so is the moon. This leads me to believe that the Moon should be plugged into Apartment A. Now, 12 Riverdale Lane is most likely going to be the Earth, since it is the second smallest one on our list. San Jose would turn into the Sun, California represents the Milky Way, and USA represents the solar system.


I sincerely hope I helped!


Have a wonderful day :)
