<em>Answer:</em>

  1. Element: Element are pure substance consist of same type of atoms
  2. Compound: Form by combination of atoms of different elements.

<em>Distinguish features:</em>

  • Compounds represented by chemical formula while elements are represented by symbols.
  • Compounds have fixed ratios of atoms of different elements while in elements are distinguished by atomic no.
  • Compounds can be converted into simple substance by chemical methods but the elements cant be converted into simpler substance by means of chemical methods.

<em>Example:</em>

  • Water (H2O) is a compounds.
  • Iron (Fe) is an element.

<em>Summary:</em>

  • When two or more elements are mixed then compounds are formed.

Si               `14                            group 14, period 3


Now, you need to know the properties of the different type of elements and the tendencies on the periodic table.


The metallic elements are, those placed on the left side of the periodic table, are the ones that release an electron more easily, so they will requiere less energy to give it up when forming chemical bonds.


The higher the metallic character the less the energy need to give up an electron.


The metallic character grows as the group number decreases (goes to the left) period increases (goes downward), so among the  elements considered, Barium will require the least amount of energy to give un an electron when forming chemical bonds.

Galina-37 [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Yes the statement is</u><u> True</u>

A student carries out this chemical reaction in a beaker:
nydimaria [60]

Answer:The correct answer is option (C).

Explanation:

Zn+CuCl_2\rightarrow Cu+ZnCl_2

After the reaction between Zinc and copper(II) chloride, Zinc chloride and copper will be obtained as a product. This reaction occurs because zinc is more reactive than copper which displaces the copper from its aqueous solution.

The student will expect to find copper metal at bottom of the beaker with aqueous solution of zinc chloride.

Hence the correct answer is option (C).

Phosphorus-32 (32P) is an isotope that is commonly used for medical and biological research. Phosphorus-32 has a half-life of 14
Pachacha [2.7K]

The activity of the sample when it was shipped from the manufacturer is 4.54 mCi

<h3>How to determine the number of half-lives that has elapsed </h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Time (t) = 48 hours
  • Half-life (t½) = 14.28 days = 14.28 × 24 = 342.72 hours
  • Number of half-lives (n) =?

n = t / t½

n = 48 / 342.72

n = 0.14

<h3>How to determine the activity of the sample during shipping </h3>
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 0.14
  • Original activity (N₀) = 5.0 mCi
  • Activity remaining (N) =?

N = N₀ / 2ⁿ

N = 5 / 2^0.14

N = 4.54 mCi

Thus, the activity of the sample during shipping is 4.54 mCi
