Answer:

Both A and B will be unreactive!

Explanation:

10=2, 8

18=2, 8, 8

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that atom A contains 10 electrons so, its electronic distribution is 2, 8. Whereas atom B contains 18 electrons so, its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 8.

Since, both these atoms have completely filled octet so they do not need to react with any other element in order to attain stability.

Therefore, both these elements are unreactive in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that both A and B will be chemically unreactive.

What characteristic frequencies in the infrared spectrum of your sodium borohydride reduction product will you look for to deter
kkurt [141]

Answer:

A)The characteristic frequency to look out for is  1720-1740 cm-1 (for C=O) for which will disappear in the end product but initially present in the reactant.

B)Characteristic frequency  present in the infrared spectrum will be at a peak of  3300-3400 cm-1 which will be due to O-H stretch.

C)If the product is wet with water there will be no change in the infrared spectrum

Explanation:

The characteristic frequency to look out for is  1720-1740 cm-1 (for C=O) for which will disappear in the end product but initially present in the reactant.

Characteristic frequency  present in the infrared spectrum will be at a peak of 3300-3400 cm-1 which will be due to O-H stretch.

If the product is wet with water there will be no change in the infrared spectrum

From the list below, choose which groups are part of the periodic table. metals acids flammable gases nonmetals semimetals ores
iris [78.8K]

The periodic table of the elements are describe the electronic configuration of the elements on which the properties of the elements depends. Among the given groups only metal, non-metal and semi-metal group are the part of periodic table. The metallic property depends upon the binding energy of the electrons with the nucleus. Thus the elements which have the valence electrons more near to the nucleus that is s-block elements are more metallic in nature. On the other hand the elements which have the valence electrons far from the nucleus are more non-metallic in nature like p-block elements. However the binding energy or the attraction of the outermost electrons to the nucleus depends not only its valence electrons position but also some other factors like shielding effect, effective nuclear charge etc.

The elements which are in between the metals and non-metals can be classified as semi-metals.

Although the conductivity of a material is an inherent property of the metals but sometime the nonmetals or semi-metals are also behave like a conductor due to presence of the other elements, thus it cannot be a p[property of the periodic table. Similarly acidity, flammable gases are not part of the periodic table.

Write the autoionization reaction for methanol, ch3oh.
aliina [53]
Autoionization Reactions are those reactions in which ions or molecules ionizes spontaneously without adding any external reagent.

For Example,
                    Autoionization of water.

                               H₂O  +  H₂O   ⇆   H₃O⁺  +  OH⁻

Autoionization reaction of Methanol is shown below,
