Imagine you are given a mystery element. It is , however a discovered and known element . You may perform a maximum of two obser

vations or tests to determine its identity. Time and money is critical. Getting by with a single test is preferable. Pick your two tests , number them as 1 and 2 and justify why you think these two will certainly be enough ( and why the first could be enough by itself).
The available tests are classification into metal , not metal , or metalliod, count of valence electrons , count of electron shells , atomic radius , electronegativity , first ionization energy , melting point , and boiling point

I would choose count of electron shells and count of valence electrons. The electron configuration of each element is fixed and can be used to determine the element's identity. By counting the electron shells, you can have an idea which part of the periodic table the mystery element lies, and by determining the number of valence electrons (outermost shell), you can pinpoint the exact identity of the mystery element.

How do you balance this Chemical Equation? <br>C5H12O + O2 = CO2 + H2O​
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The chemical equation by putting, a 2 on C₅H₁₂O, 15 on O₂, 10 on CO₂ , and 12 on H₂O in the equation;

2C₅H₁₂O + 15O₂ → 10CO₂ + 12H₂O​

Explanation:

  • Chemical equations are balanced by putting coefficients on the reactants and products to ensure the total number of atoms on the left side equal to those on the right side.
  • Balancing chemical equations is done to make chemical equations obey the law of conservation of mass.
  • According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants should always be equal to the mass of products.
  • This is done by balancing chemical equations to ensure the total number of atoms on the left side is equal to that on the right side.
  • Therefore, the balanced equation is;

          2C₅H₁₂O + 15O₂ → 10CO₂ + 12H₂O​
