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.

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The gas was N₂

Explanation:

V = 3.6L

P = 2.0 atm

T = 24.0°C = 297K

R = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

m = 8.3g

M = molar mass = ?

Using ideal gas equation;

PV = nRT

n = no. Of moles = mass / molar mass

n = m/M

PV = m/M * RT

M = mRT / PV

M = (8.3*0.0821*297) / (2.0*3.6)

M = 28.10

Since X is a diatomic molecule

M = 28.10 / 2 = 14.05 g/mol

M = Nitrogen

X = N₂

Time taken for star to reach Earth = 7.5 years

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

7.5 light years(distance Earth-star)

Required

Time taken

Solution

Speed of light=v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

1 light years = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m= distance(d)

So time taken for 1 light years :

time(t) = distance(d) : speed(v)

t = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m : 3 x 10⁸ m/s

t = 3.154 x 10⁷ s = 1 years

So for 7.5 light years, time taken = 7.5 years

How do you know if a reaction is endothermic?
Vikentia [17]
In an exothermic reaction, heat is produced along with products. But in endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed. If the number of products is less than the sum of the enthalpies of the reactants, the reaction will be exothermic. If the number of products is more than the sum of the enthalpies of the reactants, the reaction is endothermic.

Balance the following equation:<br> K+ H2O + H2 + KOH
alex41 [277]

Answer:

2K + 2H2O → H2 + 2KOH

Explanation:

Find how many atoms you have on both sides then add 2 to both sides.

Reactant:       Products:

K: 1+1=2                K: 1+1=2

H: 2+2=4             H: 3+1=4

O: 1+1=2                O: 1+1=2

Therefore it is balanced. Hope this helps
