Why is chlorine a nonmetal

Chemistry
1 answer:
baherus [9]3 years ago
3 0
Well on the periodic table Cl is in the section saying it is a non metal. In addition, it is nonmetls because it is usually a gas while metals are not. Finally, it is a non metal because it usually gains electrons instead of losing them during a reaction unlike metals.

Can colloidal suspensions be separated out by filtration
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Colloidal can not be separated through filtration.

Suspension can be separated through filtration.

Explanation:

Colloidal:

Colloidal consist of the particles having size between 1 - 1000 nm i.e, 0.001- 1μm. While the pore size of filter paper is 2μm. That's why we can not separate the colloidal through the filtration. However it can be separated through the ultra filtration. In ultra filtration the pore size is reduced by soaking the filter paper in gelatin and then in formaldehyde. This is only in case of when solid colloidal is present, if colloid is liquid , there is no solid particles present and ultra filtration can not be used in this case.

Suspension:

The particle size in suspension is greater than 1000 nm. The particles in suspension can be separated through the filtration. These particles are large enough and can be seen through naked eye.

if a 500.0-g block of metal absorbs 5,016J of heat when its temperature changes from 20.00 Celcius, what is the specific heat?
ZanzabumX [31]
Correction: The temperature change is from 20 °C to 30 °C.

Answer:
               Cp  =  1.0032 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹

Solution:

The equation used for this problem is as follow,

                                                  Q  =  m Cp ΔT   ----- (1)

Where;
            Q  =  Heat  =  5016 J

            m  =  mass  =  500 g

            Cp  =  Specific Heat Capacity  =  ??

            ΔT  =  Change in Temperature  =  30 °C  -  20 °C  =  10 °C

Solving eq. 1 for Cp,

                                 Cp  =  Q / m ΔT

Putting values,
                                 Cp  =  5016 J / (500 g × 10 °C)

                                 Cp  =  1.0032 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹

Starting with acetylene and bromoethane, show how you would use reagents from the table to synthesize 3-hexanone.
Jobisdone [24]

solution:

A = 192 x (1/2) ^ (15/5) = 192 x (1/2) ^3 = 192 x 1/8 = 24 mg

 Starting by hitting acetylene with NaNH2 to deprotonate, this C-- will attack the C connected to the Br Sn2 style to lengthen the chain by two carbons.  

Do this same thing again with the other CH of the acetylene and another bromoethaneto get a six carbon chain, namely, 3-hexyne.  

Now, reduce the alkyne to an alkene via H2/Pd/C, and that gives 3-hexene.

How can a hydrogen atom, which has only one electron, have so many spectral lines?
kow [346]

Answer:

The hydrogen atom has just one electron, but many spectral lines. However it contains many shells and the movement of that electron from one shell to another causes the release of energy and also an emission of photons.

A spectral line are dark or bright lines formed within a specific frequency range which differ from other frequencies.Because of the difference of energy for the various shells, it produces different wavelengths and this is the reason for the many spectral line for hydrogen.
