Which describes why Mendeleev succeeded where others failed?

Chemistry

wolverine [178]2 years ago

Answer:

  • <em>He realized that some elements had not been discovered.</em>

Explanation:

Some scientists that tried to arrange the list of elements known before Mendeleev include Antoine Lavoisier, Johann Döbereiner, Alexandre Béguyer de Chancourtois, John Newlands, and Julius Lothar Meyer.

<em>Dimitri Mendeleev</em> was so succesful that he is recognized as the most important in such work.

Mendeleev by writing the properties of the elements on cards elaborated by him, and "playing" trying to order them, realized that, some properties regularly (periodically) repeated.

The elements were sorted in increasing atomic weight (which is not the actual order in the periodic table), but when an element did not meet the pattern discovered, he moved it to a position were its properties fitted.

The amazing creativity of Mendeleev led him to leave blanks for what he thought were places that should be occupied by elements yet undiscovered. More amazing is that he was able to predict the properties of some of those elements.

When years after some of the elements were discovered, the genius of Mendeleev was proven because the "new" elements had the properties predicted by him.

If the reduction reaction has a reduction potential of 0.1 V, and the oxidation reaction has a reduction potential of -0.4V, and
aleksley [76]

Answer : The value of ΔG expressed in terms of F is, -1 F

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the standard electrode potential of the cell.

E^o=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

or,

E^o=E^o_{reduction}-E^o_{oxidation}

E^o=(0.1V)-(-0.4V)=+0.5V

Now we have to calculate the standard cell potential.

Formula used :

\Delta G^o=-nFE^o

where,

\Delta G^o = Gibbs free energy = ?

n = number of electrons = 2

F = Faraday constant

E^o = standard e.m.f of cell = +0.5 V

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the Gibbs free energy.

\Delta G^o=-(2\times F\times 0.5)

\Delta G^o=-1F

Therefore, the value of ΔG expressed in terms of F is, -1 F

Knowing the gravity on the moon is 1.6m/s what is your weight?
wariber [46]
Weight varies dramatically if we leave earths surface.On the moon for example acceleration due to gravity is only 1.67m/s2 A 1.0-kg mass thus has a weight of 9.8 N on Earth and only about 1.7 N on the moon

Temperature in degrees Fahrenheit can be converted to Celsius by first subtracting 32, then dividing by 1.8. What is the Celsius
kap26 [50]

Answer:

31.1°C

Explanation:

Given parameters:

  Temperature = 88°F

The formula of the to convert is:

         T°F = T°C - 32  / 1.8  = \frac{TC - 32}{1.8}

Now input the parameters and solve;

       T°F =\frac{ 88  -32}{1.8}

      T°F = 31.1°C
