Meaning of Periodic in dictionary was found to be "<em>appearing or occurring at intervals</em>".

Purpose of Reason for naming the Periodic Table:

The elements is periodic table have been found of having same iso-electronic properties and the major periodicities found are of two, eight and eighteen respectively.

Examples:

First Group elements tends to loose only one electron to form M⁺ cation. Starting from Lithium with atomic number 3, secondly sodium which has atomic number 11. When 3 (lithium) is subtracted from 11 (sodium) (i.e. 11-3=8) eight is attained. Same when 11 (sodium) is subtracted from 19 (Potassium), again 8 is obtained. Going downwards the group the number of 18 is obtained i.e. Rubidium (37-19=18), Cesium (55-37=18).

Seventh Group elements tends to gain only one electron to form X⁻ anion. Starting from Fluorine with atomic number 9, secondly Chlorine which has atomic number 17. When 9 (Fluorine) is subtracted from 17 (Chlorine) (i.e. 17-9=8) eight is attained. Same when 17 (Chlorine) is subtracted from 35 (Bromine), 18 is obtained. Going downwards the group the number of 18 is obtained i.e. Iodine (53-35=18).

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

Hence, we can conclude that Periodic Table is designed in such a way that after a particular interval the chemical and physical properties of elements repeats. Therefore, it can help in understanding the nature of elements without going into experimental experiments.

<span>A hydrocarbon is a molecule whose structure includes only hydrogen and carbon atoms. Hydrocarbons containing between six and ten carbon molecules are the top components of most fuels. In general, these molecules are burned to produce energy. Examples such include: 1. Methane: A fuel in electrical generation. 2. Propane: Generally used heating and cooking. 3. Butane: Generally used in lighters and aerosol cans. 4.Heptane: The major component of gasoline Hydrocarbons are majorly used as a combustible fuel source and are considered a primary source of energy for contemporary civilizations. Oil is an excellent example of a hydrocarbon fuel currently in use all over the world.</span>

Write a balanced chemical equation for the fermentation of sucrose (C12H22O11) by yeasts in which the aqueous sugar reacts with

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

$C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}(aq)+H_{2}O(aq)=4C_{2}H_{5}OH(aq)+4CO_{2}(g)$

Explanation:

1. First write the formula of each compound:

Sucrose : $C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}$

Water : $H_{2}O$

Ethyl alcohol : $C_{2}H_{5}OH$

Carbon dioxide : $CO_{2}$

2. Write the equation with the reactants on the left and the products on the right:

$C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}+H_{2}O=C_{2}H_{5}OH+CO_{2}$

3. Put the states of matter of each compound in the reaction, as the problem says:

$C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}(aq)+H_{2}O(aq)=C_{2}H_{5}OH(aq)+CO_{2}(g)$

aq = aqueous solution

g = gas

4. Balance each element.

The number of each atom must be the same on the left and on the right.

$C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}(aq)+H_{2}O(aq)=4C_{2}H_{5}OH(aq)+4CO_{2}(g)$

The octet rule states that, in chemical compounds, atoms tend to have ____. the electron configuration of a noble gas more proto

poizon [28]

The octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects observation that atoms of main group elements tend to combine in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electron configuration as a noble gas. The rule is especially applicable to carbon , nitrogen , oxygen , and the halogens, but also to metals such as sodium or magnesium.
