The elements in the periodice table are not listed in alphabetical order, because the arragement in rows (periods) and columns (groups or familes), in increasing order of atomic number (number of protons of the atoms) permits to explain similarities among the elements, trend in some properties, and even predict properties of unknown elements.
For example, the elements of the first group (family), called alkaline metals, all have 1 valence electron, have similar physical properties (ductibility, malleability, luster, thermal and electricity conductivity), react in similar way with water, show a trend in the atomic radii and in the ionization energy.
You can tell similar stories for other groups like, alkalyne earth metals, halogens and noble gases.
You can also tell trends in electroneativities, and atomic radii, for a row of elements, as per the order they are in the row.
So, the current array resulted very helpul for chemists to explain and predict the behavior and properties of the elements.
U got kik?
lets talk first before we go any further
The first step is to balance the equation:
<span>C3H8 + 5O2 ---> 3CO2 + 4H2O
Check the balance
element left side right side
C 3 3
H 8 4*2 = 8
O 5*2=10 3*2 + 4 = 10
Then you have the molar ratios:
3 mol C3H8 : 5 mol O2 : 3 mol CO2 : 4 mol H2O
Now you have 40 moles of O2 so you make the proportion:
40.0 mol O2 * [3 mol CO2 / 5 mol O2] = 24.0 mol CO2.
Answer: option D. 24.0 mol CO2

Explanation:
The space between the large nucleus and the electrons is huge. We know this because the alpha particles shot at the gold foil most went right on through. That means that the space between hold atoms is very large.
B
Not only that but the deflection that takes place is not frequent further telling us that the the nucleus must be positively charged. That observation comes from the deflection itself. The charge on the nucleus must be the same as the alpha particle. If they were different, and the nucleus was negative, those particles that were deflected would now be absorbed.
Answer:
When chlorine and bromine atoms come into contact with ozone in the stratosphere, they destroy ozone molecules.
