The number of valence electrons and electronegativity of an element in the unknown element determines the other elements it reacts with.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The ability of an atom to attract the electrons for bonding is called electro negativity. When an atom has highjer electronegativity it can attract electrons stronger. When the atom's electronegativity is lower it can attract electrons weaker. This property is very important in the determination of how well an element can readily react with another element.  

The determination of an element's reactivity can also be done  by the number of valence electrons in the outermost shell. The elements that has valence electrons lesser than 4 will be giving its valence electron for getting 8 electrons in the next shell so that it can become an ion of stable nature. An element that has 4 electrons will form covelant bond. The elements that have greater than 4 electrons will be getting electrons from some other element.

Rank the solutions in order of decreasing [H3O ]. Rank solutions from largest to smallest hydronium ion concentration. To rank i
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

0.10M HCN  <  0.10 M HClO  <  0.10 M HNO₂  < 0.10 M HNO₃

Explanation:

We are comparing acids with the same concentration. So what we have to do first is to determine if we have any strong acid and for the rest ( weak acids ) compare them by their Ka´s ( look for them in reference tables ) since we know the larger the Ka, the more Hydronium concentration will be in these solutions at the same concentration.

HNO₃ is a strong acid and will have the largest hydronium concentration.

HCN  Ka = 6.2 x 10⁻¹⁰

HNO₂ Ka = 4.0 x 10⁻⁴

HClO  Ka = 3.0 x 10⁻⁸

The ranking from smallest to largest hydronium concentration will then be:

0.10M HCN  <  0.10 M HClO  <  0.10 M HNO₂  < 0.10 M HNO₃

An object has a density of 10.00 g/mL. If the object has a volume of<br> 25.00 ml, what is the mass?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>250 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

volume of object = 25 mL

Density = 10 g/mL

The mass of the object is

mass = 25 × 10

We have the final answer as

<h3>250 g</h3>

Hope this helps you

Which metal is more active than NI and less active than Zn?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer : The correct option is, (2) Cr (Chromium)

Explanation :

The reactivity series of metal are arranged of the reactivity from the highest to the lowest. Reactivity series is used to determine the products of the single displacement reactions. In the single displacement reaction, the most reactive metal displaces the least reactive metal.

From the given reactivity series we conclude that there are two metal (Mg and Cr) are more reactive metal than the Ni and there are two metal (Pb and Cr) are less reactive metal than the Zn. So, the Cr (Chromium) is the metal which is more active than Ni and less active than Zn.

Hence, the correct option is, (2) Cr
