Answer: Steel is a mixture amongst the following substances.

Explanation: Mixture is defined as the substance made up from the mixing of two or more substances.

  • Steel is an alloy or a homogeneous mixture of Carbon, iron and other elements.
  • Water is a compound as it is formed by the chemical combination of hydrogen and oxygen.
  • Oxygen is a molecule constituting same element.
  • Gold is an element as it is a pure substance.

Determine the pH of a 5x10^-4 M solution of Ca(OH)2
miss Akunina [59]
Ca(OH)₂ ==> Ca²⁺ + 2 OH<span>-   

Ca(OH)</span>₂ is <span>strong Bases</span><span>

</span>Therefore,  the [OH-] equals 5 x 10⁻⁴ M. For every Ca(OH)₂ you produce 2 OH⁻<span>.
</span>
pOH = - log[ OH⁻]

pOH = - log [ <span>5 x 10⁻⁴ ]

pOH = 3.30

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 3.30 = 14

pH = 14 - 3.30

pH = 10.7

How do valence electrons relate to the chemical reactions of an element?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Explanation:

Valance electrons are loosely held electrons of an atom. They are involve in chemical reaction. Consider the example of metals such as group two metals. All these have two valance electrons. They needed six electrons to complete the octet or loses two valance electrons to get complete octet. Thus its easier to remove two electrons than getting six electrons. These metals remove two electrons and form cations.

Now consider the example of nonmetals such group sixteen. They needed two electrons to get complete octet or remove six electrons to get complete octet. Thus its easier for them to get two electrons and they form anion. When group two metals cation and group sixteen anions combine they form compound and chemical reaction occur.

Group two metals also combine with halogens. Two halogens atoms combine with one alkaline earth metal atom to cancel the charge and make compound neutral.

They react with oxygen and form oxide.

2Ba   +   O₂   →    2BaO

2Mg  +   O₂   →    2MgO

2Ca +   O₂   →    2CaO

Oxygen carry -2 charge while Ca, Mg and Ba +2 and make the compound neutral because charges are equal in magnitude.

With sulfur,

Mg + S   →  MgS

Ca + S   →  CaS

Ba + S   →  BaS

Sulfer carry -2 charge while Ca, Mg and Ba +2 and make the compound neutral because charges are equal in magnitude.

How can there be more than 1000 different atoms when there are only about 100 different elements?
LekaFEV [45]
Actually, there are only about 100 atoms that have been yet discovered. But each element has many different kinds of atom. For instance, carbon. Do you know carbon has more than 30 or 50 different types of atoms? Well, how? There are isotopes. Don't think that there is only one carbon atom which has 6 electrons and 6 protons and 6 neutrons. There are more. C-13 has 6 electrons and 6 protons and 7 neutrons. While, C-14 has 6 electrons and 6 protons and 8 neutrons. I just showed you three stable isotopes of carbon(element). But, what is really an isotope?? Did you notice that all of these atoms had the same number of protons and electron but different numbers of neutrons? This is really an isotope. Well, if an atom takes a few more electrons or gives off a few electrons, it still stays the same element/ atom type. Just like that an element can have atoms of different neutron number. It may be less or more. It doesn't affect the atom much: just makes an isotope. But it does affect the atomic mass number or radioactivity of an atom. So, an element can have many different forms of isotopes of its atoms. In this way, being only 100 atoms, there can 1000 atoms or (more than that!). 

To make it more clear-

Definition of ISOTOPE: <span>any of two or more forms of a </span>chemical<span> element, having the same number of protons and electrons in the nucleus, or the same atomic number, but having different numbers of neutrons</span>
