The answer is the atomic number.

The elements in the periodic table are arranged in increasing order of atomic number.

Thre adjacent elements in the same period (row) of the periodic table will have consecutive atomic numbers.

If the atomic number of the first of those three elements is n, next is n +1 and next is n +2.

The average of those three numbers is [n + (n+1) + (n + 2)] / 3 = [3n + 3] / 3 = n + 1. As you see n + 1 is the atomic number of the middle element, which proves the answer.

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Oxygen, and from solid to liquid. This is because oxygen's melting point is at -218°C. Melting point refers to the temperature where heat causes particles to vibrate with sufficient energy to break the solid structure, so for oxygen this means it's being turned into a liquid.

What is the mass of 2.47 moles of fluorine (<br> f. atoms? 0.130 g 7.69 g 46.9 g my answer 282 g
mixer [17]

The mass of 2.47 moles of fluorine atom is 46.9 g

calculation

mass of Fluorine= moles x molar mass

moles = 2.47 moles

molar mass of fluorine = 18.998 g/mol

mass is therefore= 2.47 moles x 18.008 g/mol = 46.9 g

Describe how plants might be affected if the inter molecular forces in water decreased? i need asap!
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Water has polar O-H bonds. The negative O atoms attract the positive H atoms in nearby molecules, leading to the unusually strong type of dipole-dipole force called a hydrogen bond. Since water has hydrogen bonds, it also has dipole-induced dipole and London dispersion forces.

Hope it helped!!
