In general, which properties are common to elements within a single group on the periodic table?
blsea [12.9K]
Almost all properties are common to elements within a single group on the periodic table. They react with water in the same way, they have the same number of valence electrons thereby having the same valency, the number of shells in the atom of the element increases by one as we move down the group. 

In general, they have the same chemical properties as chemical properties depend on the number of electrons in the valence shell i.e. the outermost shell in the atom of an element.

A reaction at -6.0 °C evolves 786. mmol of sulfur tetrafluoride gas. Calculate the volume of sulfur tetrafluoride gas that is co
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

V of Sulfur tetrafluoride is  17.2 L

Explanation:

Given data;

T = -6°C =  267K                                [1° C  = 273 K]

n = 786 mmol of SF4 which is 0.786 mol

P = 1 atm

from ideal gas law  we have

PV = nRT

where n is mole, R is gas constant, V is volume

V = \frac{nRT}{P}V = \frac{0.786 mol \times 0.082 atmL/mol K \times* 267K}{1atm} = 17.2 L

V of Sulfur tetrafluoride is  17.2 L

What is the Chemical Formula and Net Ionic Equations for all three solutions.
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

As you are asking for chemical formula and ionic equation, then, I will assume that after the station #3 below, are the solutions you are requiring.

You are also not specifing if you want for example, result of solution 1 + solution 3. If you need that, please post that on another question.

Now for the chemical formula, you need to identify the elements in all 3 solutions, and also the type of compound.

<u>1. Solution 2 Potassium Iodide: </u>

In this case we have Potassium on one side, and Iodine on the other side, the symbol for those are K and l. As Potassium have the +1 oxidation state, cause is the only one that it can have, when it's next to an halide like chlorine or bromine, it will form a binary salt. The halides, usually work with the lowest oxydation state. In the case of Iodide it will be -1, so, the formula will be:

KI

And the net ionic equation will be the chemical equation that shows how the charges and atoms are balanced. In this case it would be:  

K⁺ + I⁻ ------> KI

<u>2. Solution 1 and 3, Lead (II) nitrate and Sodium carbonate: </u>

In this case I will work with both, because both of the solution are tertiary compounds. In this cases, we have two tertiary salt, The Sodium symbol is Na, and is working with it oxydation state +1. Carbonate is an anion and have the formula CO₃ working with the oxydation state -2. Lead can work with oxidation state +2 and +4. It's symbol is Pb. Nitrate is NO₃ and works with oxydation state -1 instead.

The chemical formula and ionic equation for both will be:

Lead(II) nitrate: Pb(NO₃)₂

Sodium Carbonate: Na₂CO₃

And the net equations:

Lead nitrate: Pb²⁺ + 2NO₃⁻ ------> Pb(NO₃)₂

Copper sulfate: 2Na⁺ + CO₃²⁻ -------> Na₂CO₃

Hope this helps

Which statement describes how a basic coffee cup calorimeter works? A) It measures the mass of a substance given the specific he
fomenos
A calorimeter experiment is a set-up that provides insulation so that no heat escapes to the surroundings and all energy can be accounted for. It can be done at either constant volume or constant pressure. So, the answer to this is knowing the mass of water, the specific heat which is an empirical data, and the change in temperature which can be measured using a thermometer. This experiment could measure the mass of an unknown substance added or the specific heat of the substance or the calorimeter. <em>The answer is D.</em>
