Chemistry

svlad2 [7]3 years ago

Explanation:

When we move across a period from left to right then there will occur an increase in electronegativity and also there will occur an increase in non-metallic character of the elements.

As calcium (Ca) is a group 2A element and rubidium (Rb) is a group 1A element. Hence, Rb being an alkali metal is more metallic in nature than calcium (alkaline earth metal).

Both magnesium (Mg) and radium (Ra) are group 2A elements. And, when we move down a group then as the size of element increases so, it becomes easy of the metal atom to lose an electron.

As a result, there occurs an increase in metallic character of the element. Hence, Radium (Ra) is more metallic in nature than magnesium (Mg).

Also, both bromine and iodine are group 17 elements. Since, both of them are non-metals and non-metallic character increases on moving down the group.

Therefore, bromine (Br) is more metallic than iodine.

KIM [24]

The words that complete the blanks are hypothesis and experimentation.

<h3>What is scientific knowledge?</h3>

The process by which scientists obtain information and establish knowledge is;

Observation ---> hypothesis ------> experiments ------> Theory -------> Law.

Thus after the process of observation what we have is merely a scientific hypothesis that needs to pass through the process of rigorous experimentation before it is proven to be true.

Thus the words that complete the blanks are hypothesis and experimentation.

ubstance A is a nonpolar liquid and has only dispersion forces among its constituent particles. Substance B is also a nonpolar l
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Their particles exhibit the same type of intermolecular interaction

Explanation:

In chemistry, we commonly say that 'like dissolves like'. This implies that polar solvents dissolves polar solutes while nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes.

This phenomenon of 'like dissolves like' is possible because, the dissolution of one substance in another involves intermolecular interaction between the solute and solvent molecules.

If the molecules of solute and solvent are both nonpolar and have about the same magnitude of intermolecular (dispersion) forces, interaction between the both molecules is significant hence the solute dissolves completely in the solvent.

A chemist has a 3.25-mole sample of potassium (K) to use in an experiment. What is the mass of this sample?
s344n2d4d5 [400]
Hi!
• For this you want to convert moles to grams
• To do this you would simply multiple your moles times the atomic mass of potassium
3.25 x 39.098= 127.0685
• So your answer for this should be about 127.07 depending on how you need to round!
