Answer:
A) They all have 12 protons.
Explanation:
Magnesium has an atomic number of 12 which means it has 12 protons. All Magnesium atoms have 12 protons, the neutrons however may differ which produces things called isotopes where the atoms have same protons but neutrons change.
Keep in mind the atomic number is unique to each element, so 12 atomic number will always be Magnesium, 1 will always be Hydrogen and so on.....
Answer:
Option D and Option B
When comparing the two elements K and Ge , the more metallic element is_____K_____ based on periodic trends alone.
When comparing the two elements Sb and Pb , the more metallic element is_____Pb______ based on periodic
Explanation:
The metallic characteristic increases when we move down a column in a periodic table or when we move left in the row.
Potassium and Germanium are located on the same row, but germanium lies on the right side of potassium. Thus, potassium (K) is more metallic than Germanium (Ge)
While Lead (Pb) lies to left of Sb in the adjacent column and is also lies below Sb. Hence Pb is more metallic than Sb
This may seem confusing because they give you two masses, but all you have to do is pick one to do the calculations. Personally, I would pick O2, since the molar mass is easier to calculate. The answer would be 3.3 g (rounded for sig figs). To get this, first take the 5.9 grams of O2 and convert it to moles by dividing by the molar mass of oxygen gas, which is 32. Then, multiply both by the mole-mole ratio, which is 2:2, or simply 1:1. After that, multiply that by 18g, which is the molar mass of water to get grams of water.
REMEMBER, you have to write and balance the chemical equation before you can do any of that work.
That happens to be CH4 + 2O2 => CO2 + 2H2O
