Which element does not have similar chemical characteristics as phosphorus (P)?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Trava [24]2 years ago
3 0
Generally (but far from universally), the elements within a group have similar characteristics. Antimony, nitrogen, and arsenic are all part of the same group as phosphorous (the pnictogens, or group 5A). Oxygen is not in this group, but rather in an adjacent group (the chalcogens, or group 6A). Thus, the answer here should be oxygen.

That said, there can be very significant differences in characteristics among the elements within a group, and that is certainly the case here. For example, free nitrogen exists predominantly as a molecular gas (N₂) and makes up about 78% of the atmosphere we breathe. Elemental arsenic (As), while in the same group as nitrogen, is naturally found in the solid state and is poisonous to humans (arsenic is sometimes included among the toxic heavy metals, although it’s technically a metalloid).

Match the following.
Andru [333]

Answer: Please see below for answers

Explanation: Matching appropriate labels , we have

1)3/4 of the way to second equivalence point of a diprotic acid/strong base titration-- pH=pka₂

equivalence point of a weak base/strong acid titration=pH<7

equivalence point of a strong acid/strong base titration= pH=7

equivalence point of a weak acid/strong base titration=pH>7

half-way to equivalence point of a weak acid/strong base titration pH =pka

where

pH gives the measure of the amount of concentration of hydrogen ions in an aqueous solution.

pKa  is known as acid dissociation constant which explains the equilibrum at which a chemical species can give out or receive proton

pka₂ is the acid dissociation constant for the second ionization energy.

Iron metal reacts with elemental oxygen to form rust according to the unbalanced reaction, Fe(s) + O2(g) → Fe2O3(s),. What is th
pochemuha

Answer:

c. 3

Explanation:

The unbalanced reaction expression is given as:

          Fe  +  O₂  →   Fe₂O₃  

To balance the expression gives the coefficient of oxygen.

Assign the coefficients a,b, c and use a mathematical approach to solve this problem:

             aFe  +  bO₂  →  cFe₂O₃

Conserving Fe: a  = 2c

                    O:  2b  = 3c

Now let c = 1, a  = 2, b  = \frac{3}{2}

  Multiply through by 2,

             a = 4, b = 3 and c  = 2

 

               4Fe  +  3O₂  →   2Fe₂O₃  

The coefficient of O₂ is 3

A gas has a volume of 6.35 L at 88.6 kPa. What will be the volume at standard pressure? Standard Pressure = 101.3 kPa
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

5.55 L

Explanation:

This excersise can be solved by the Boyle's law.

This law for gases states that the pressure of a gas in a vessel is inversely proportional to the volume of the vessel.

P₁ . V₁  = P₂ . V₂

The law comes from the Ideal Gases Law, in the first term.

P . V = n . R . T  In this case, n . R . T are all constant.

6.35 L . 88.6 kPa = 101.3 kPa . V₂

V₂ = (6.35 L . 88.6 kPa) / 101.3 kPa

V₂ = 5.55 L

It is inversely proportional because, as it happened in this case, pressure was increased, therefore volume decreased.
