Answer:

They are in same group/family.

Explanation:

Alkaline earth metals are present in group 2 of periodic table. There are six elements in second group. Beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.

All have two valance electrons but in different energy levels. Thus they have similar chemical properties.

Electronic configuration of calcium.

Ca = [Ar] 4s²

Electronic configuration of strontium.

Sr = [Kr] 5s²

They are present in group two and have same number of valance electrons (two valance electrons) and show oxidation state +2 by loosing two valance electrons. They also show similar reactivity.

They react with oxygen and form oxide.

2Sr + O₂ → 2SrO

2Ca + O₂ → 2CaO

this oxide form hydroxide when react with water,

SrO + H₂O → Sr(OH)₂

CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂

With sulfur,

Sr + S → SrS

Ca + S → CaS

A chemist adds 135.0 mL of a 0.21M zinc nitrate (Zn(NO3) solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of zinc nitra

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

5.36 grams the mass in grams of zinc nitrate the chemist has added to the flask.

Explanation:

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of the solution (L)}}$

Moles of zinc nitrate = n

Volume of the solution = 135.0 mL = 0.1350 L

Molarity of the solution = 0.21 M

$0.21 M=\frac{n}{0.1350 L}$

$n=0.21M\times 0.1350 L=0.02835 mol$

Mass of 0.02835 moles of zinc nitrate:

0.02835 mol × 189 g/mol = 5.358 g ≈ 5.36 g

5.36 grams the mass in grams of zinc nitrate the chemist has added to the flask.

What type of consumer are bears?

sashaice [31]

Bears are omnivores (and scavengers), meaning they eat both plants and animals.
it can be both a primary consumer (if it eats plants) and secondary & tertiary consumers (if it eats a plant-eating animal). so it depends on what it eats.
