Answer is: B. antimony and tellurium.

1) Iodine (I) is an element with atomic number 53 (53 protons and 53 electrons), it is in group 17 (halogen element) and period 5 (principal quantum number n = 5, which means it has 5 electrons shell) of Periodic table.

Electron configuration of iodine atom: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁵.

2) Tellurium (Te) is an element with atomic number 52 (52 protons and 52 electrons), it is in group 16 (chalcogens) and period 5 (principal quantum number n = 5, which means it has 5 electrons shell) of Periodic table.

Electron configuration of tellurium atom: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p⁴.

3) Antimony (Sb) is an element with atomic number 51 (51 protons and 51 electrons), it is in group 15 (pnictogens) and period 5 (principal quantum number n = 5, which means it has 5 electrons shell) of Periodic table.

Electron configuration of antimony atom: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 4d¹⁰ 5s² 5p³.

A 12.82 g sample of a compound contains 4.09 g potassium (K), 3.71 g chlorine (Cl), and oxygen (O). Calculate the empirical form
Rina8888 [55]
The  empirical  formula of the  compound is  calculated  as  follows

first   calculate  the  mass  of  oxygen=  12-(4.09  +3.71)=  5.02g

then  calculate  the  moles  of  each  element,  moles  =  mass/  molar  mass

moles of   K  =  4.09g/39 g/mol(molar  mass  of K)  =  0.105  moles
moles  of Cl = 3.71g/35.5 g/mol(molar  mass  of Cl) =  0.105  moles
moles of  O  =  5.02g/ 16g/mol(molar  mass of  O) = 0.314  moles

then  calculate e  mole ratio by  dividing  each  mole  by  the  smallest  number  of  moles  (  0.105 moles)

K=0.105/0.105= 1
Cl=0.105 /0.105=1
O=  0.314/0.105=3

therefore  the  empirical   formula  = KClO3

Can you store cuso4 in an aluminum container? explain your reasoning
mash [69]

We can store the copper sulphate solution in alumiun container, if cover on alumiun is present.

<h3>Can you store cuso4 in an aluminum container?</h3>

Aluminium is more reactive than copper so the Aluminium will displace copper sulphate from its solution by reacting with it but if there is cover on the aluminium then the alumium can't react with copper.

So we can store the copper sulphate solution in alumiun container.
