Which element would you expect to be more metallic? (a) Ca or Rb (b) Mg or Ra (c) Br or I

Chemistry

svlad2 [7]3 years ago
7 0

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.

How many moles of Boron (B) are in 5.03 x 1024 B atoms?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Hey there!:

Number of moles =   ( number of atoms / 6.023*10²³ atoms )

given number of atoms = 5.03*10²⁴

Therefore:

Number of moles B = 5.03*10²⁴ / 6.023*10²³

Number of moles B = 8.35 moles

Hope that helps!

True or false. Gas particles never touch each other.
Sati [7]

Answer:

False.  In a gas, particles are in continual straight-line motion. The kinetic energy of the molecule is greater than the attractive force between them, thus they are much farther apart and move freely of each other.

A propane stove burned 470 grams propane and produced 625 grams of water (this is the actual yield) C3H8 +5O2=3CO2+4H20. What wa
Liula [17]

Answer:

81.3%

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction:

This is shown below:

C3H8 + 5O2 —> 3CO2 + 4H2O

Step 2:

Data obtained from the question. This includes:

Mass of propane (C3H8) = 470 g

Actual yield of water (H2O) = 625 g

Percentage yield of water (H2O) =?

Step 3:

Determination of the mass of propane (C3H8) burned and the mass of water (H2O) produce from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

C3H8 + 5O2 —> 3CO2 + 4H2O

Molar Mass of C3H8 = (3x12) + (8x1) = 36 + 8 = 44g/mol

Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 2 + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 4 x 18 = 72g

From the balanced equation above,

44g of C3H8 was burned and 72g of H2O was produced.

Step 4:

Determination of the theoretical yield of H2O. This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

44g of C3H8 produced 72g of H2O.

Therefore, 470g of C3H8 will produce = (470x72)/44 = 769.09g of H2O.

Therefore, the theoretical yield of H2O is 769.09g

Step 5:

Determination of the percentage yield of water (H2O). This is illustrated below:

Actual yield of water (H2O) = 625g

theoretical yield of H2O = 769.09g

Percentage yield of water (H2O) =?

Percentage yield = Actual yield/Theoretical yield x100

Percentage yield = 625/769.09 x100

Percentage yield = 81.3%

Therefore, the percentage yield of water (H2O) is 81.3%

<h3>What is Manometer ?</h3>

Manometer is a U shaped instrument which is used to measure the pressure acting on a column of fluid , a difference in the pressure  in the two arms of the manometer causes the liquid to reach different heights.

The difference  in the heights of the Hg columns in Diagram B is17 mm-Hg.

the atmospheric pressure is 769 mm-Hg,

the pressure of the confined gas in mm-Hg = ?

How many moles are in 442.8 g of strontium carbonate (SrCO3)?
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

3 moles

Explanation:

SrCO3

Mass = 442.8g

Molar mass = (87.6 + 12 * [16*3]) = 147.6g/mol

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 442.8 / 147.6

Number of moles = 3
