Answer : The correct option is, Malleable, shiny, and able to conduct heat or electricity.

Explanation:

Metals : Metals are the elements which can easily loose electrons and forms cations.

Properties of metals :

  • They are lustrous (shine).
  • They are malleable and ductile (flexible).
  • They conduct heat and electricity.
  • The metallic oxides are basic in nature.
  • They form cations in an aqueous solution.

Non-metals : Non-metals are the elements which can easily gain electrons and form an anion.

Properties of non-metals :

  • They are non-lustrous.
  • They are brittle and hard in nature.
  • They do not conduct heat and electricity.
  • The non-metallic oxides are acidic in nature.
  • They form anions in an aqueous solution.

Hence, from the given options the correct option for metal is, Malleable, shiny, and able to conduct heat or electricity.

Calculate the volume of a 2.0 molar aqueous solution made from 14 miles of K2S
Vilka [71]

Answer:

volume is 7.0 liters

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Molarity of the aqueous solution as 2.0 M
  • Moles of the solute, K₂S as 14 moles

We are required to determine the volume of the solution;

We need to know that;

Molarity = Moles ÷ volume

Therefore;

Volume = Moles ÷ Molarity

Thus;

Volume of the solution = 14 moles ÷ 2.0 M

                                       = 7.0 L

Hence, the volume of the molar solution is 7.0 L

Which group (give the number) is characterized by 5 valence electrons in the configuration<br> s²p3?
Ivahew [28]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Group 5A

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Elements in the periodic table are arranged into columns known as groups and rows known as periods.
  • Elements in the same group share similar chemical properties.
  • For example, elements in group 5A have five valence electrons with the most high energy level with a configuration of s²p³.
  • Elements in group 5A include nitrogen and phosphorus among others.

It is required to prepare 1250 kg of a solution composed of 12 wt.% ethanol and 88 wt.% water. Two solutions are available, the
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

437.5 kg of first solution and 812.5 kg of second solution should be mixed to get desired solution.

Explanation:

Let the mass of the first solution be x and second solution be y.

Amount solution required = 1250 kg

x + y = 1250 kg....[1]

Percentage of ethanol in required solution = 12% of 1250 kg

Percentage of ethanol in solution-1 = 5% of x

Percentage of ethanol in required solution = 25% of y

5% of x +  25% of y =12% of 1250 kg

\frac{5}{100}\times x+\frac{25}{100}y=\frac{12}{100}\times 1250 kg

x + 5y = 3000 kg...[2]

Solving [1] and [2] we :

x = 437.5 kg   , y =  812.5 kg

437.5 kg of first solution and 812.5 kg of second solution should be mixed to get desired solution.
