Answer: Boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

Metals are defined as the elements which loose electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain positive charge and form cation. Example: Zinc (Zn), Aluminium (Al) , copper (Cu)

Non-metals are defined as the elements which gain electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain negative charge and form anion. Example: Chlorine (Cl) , Sulphur (S)

Metalloids are defined as the elements which show properties of both metals and non-metals. There are 7 metalloids in the periodic table. They are Boron (B) , Silicon (Si) , Germanium (Ge) , Arsenic (As) ,  Antimony (Sb), Tellurium (Te) and Polonium (Po).

Thus boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Benzene has a specific gravity of 0.88. if it was spilled in a river what would it do?
Gelneren [198K]
As we know,
                    Density of Benzene  =  876 Kg/m³
And,
                    Density of Water       =  997 Kg/m³
So,
     Specific Gravity is calculated as,

                     Specific Gravity  =  Density of Benzene / Density of Water

                     Specific Gravity    =   876 Kg/m³ / 997 Kg/m³

                     Specific Gravity    =  0.878

Every object having specific gravity less than 1 will float on water and if value is greater than 1 then it will sink.

Benzene being non-polar in nature does not mix with water and due to less density it will float on the surface of water.

Which regions on the periodic table can adopt positive and negative oxidation numbers?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

<span>The region(s) of the periodic table which are made up of elements that can adopt both positive and negative oxidation numbers are the “non-metal” region. As we can see on the periodic table, the elements situated at the right side of the table have two oxidation states, one positive and the other a negative. </span>

A chemical engineer must calculate the maximum safe operating temperature of a high-pressure gas reaction vessel. The vessel is
Airida [17]

Answer:

the maximum safe operating temperature the engineer should recommend for this reaction is 616 °C  

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

First we calculate the Volume of the steel cylinder;

V = πr²h

radius r = Diameter / 2 = 27 cm / 2 = 13.5 cm

height h = 32.4 cm

so we substitute

V = π × ( 13.5 cm )² × 32.4 cm

V  = π × 182.25 cm × 32.4 cm

V = 18550.79 cm³  

V = 18.551 L

given that; maximum safe pressure P = 3.10 MPa = 30.5946 atm

vessel contains 0.218kg or 218 gram of carbon monoxide gas

molar mass of carbon monoxide gas is 28.010 g/mol

so

moles of carbon monoxide gas n = 218 gram /  28.010 g/mol = 7.7829 mol

we know that;

PV = nRT

solve for T

T = PV / nR

we know that gas constant R = 0.0820574 L•atm•mol⁻¹ K⁻¹

so we substitute

T = ( 30.5946 × 18.551 ) / ( 7.7829 × 0.082 )

T = 567.5604 / 0.6381978

T = 889.317387 K

T = ( 889.317387 - 273.15 ) °C

T = 616.167 ≈ 616 °C  { 3 significant digits }

Therefore, the maximum safe operating temperature the engineer should recommend for this reaction is 616 °C

Rozwiaz logogryf. Z wyróżnionych pól odczytaj hasło i je zapisz.
saul85 [17]

Answer:

1) Nitrogen

2) Methane

3) Dipeptide

4) Ammonia

5) Glycine

In Polish/Po polsku

1) Azot

2) metan

3) dipeptyd

4) Amoniak

5) glicyna

Explanation:

English Translation

Solve logogriffs. Read the password from the highlighted fields and write it down.

1.The chemical element being the main component of air (it occupies 78% of its volume),

2. The simplest saturated hydrocarbon,

3. Is a result of combining two amino acid molecules,

4. Gas with a pungent odor, soluble in water; hydrogen and nitrogen synthesis product.

5. Common name of aminoacetic acid

(the first has four boxes, the second has five boxes, the third has eight quarters has seven, fifths and seven).

Thank you in advance

1) The main component of air that makes up 78% of the air is Nitrogen.

2) The simplest saturated hydrocarbon is the first member of the alkane family, Methane.

3) Two amino acids combine by forming peptide bonds between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another through dehydration synthesis (loss of 1 molecule of water). Hence, the result of the combination of two amino acids are called Dipeptides.

4) Nitrogen and Hydrogen come together to form only one known water soluble gas with pungent smell, called Ammonia.

5) Aminoacetic acid as its name suggests is an amino acid with the acetyl group. It is the simplest amino acid. The common name for this compound is Glycine.

In Polish/Po polsku

1) Głównym składnikiem powietrza, które stanowi 78% powietrza, jest azot.

2) Najprostszym nasyconym węglowodorem jest pierwszy członek rodziny alkanów, metan.

3) Dwa aminokwasy łączą się, tworząc wiązania peptydowe między grupą karboksylową jednego aminokwasu i grupą aminową innego przez syntezę odwodnienia (utrata 1 cząsteczki wody). Stąd wynik połączenia dwóch aminokwasów nazywa się dipeptydami.

4) Azot i wodór tworzą razem jeden znany gaz rozpuszczalny w wodzie o ostrym zapachu, zwany amoniakiem.

5) Kwas aminooctowy, jak sama nazwa wskazuje, jest aminokwasem z grupą acetylową. To najprostszy aminokwas. Powszechna nazwa tego związku to glicyna.

Hope this Helps!!!

Mam nadzieję że to pomoże!!!

How is copper sulphate different to copper sulphide in terms of the elments it contains
son4ous [18]

Answer:

An Element is a substance made up of only one type of atom as like gold, copper, oxygen, etc.

Copper sulphate with molecular formula (CuSO_4), the elements are copper, sulphur and oxygen. It is formed by combination of Cu^{2+} cation and SO_4^{2-} anion.

Copper sulphide with molecular formula (CuS), the elements are copper and sulphur. It is formed by combination of Cu^{2+} cation and S^{2-} anion.
