Based on Chromium's position on the periodic table, which statement describes the element

Chemistry

Answer:

C. chromium is a metal that is less reactive than sodium.

Explanation:

Hello.

Given the options:

A. chromium is a nonmetal and therefore a good conductor of heat and electricity .

B. chromium is a metal that is more reactive than potassium .

C. chromium is a metal that is less reactive than sodium .

D. chromium is a noble gas that is not reactive.

In this case, since chromium is in period 4 group VIB we infer it is a transition metal which slightly reacts with acids and poorly reacts with oxygen and other oxidizing substances. Thus, in comparison with both sodium and potassium which are highly reactive even with water as they get on fire, we can say that it is less reactive than both potassium and sodium, therefore, answer is: C. chromium is a metal that is less reactive than sodium.

Best regards.

Write a chemical equation for NH4+(aq) showing how it is an acid or a base according to the Arrhenius definition. Express your a
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

NH4+(aq)  → NH3(aq) + H+(aq)

Explanation:

Following arrhenius, an acid can be defined as:

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that, when added to water, increases the concentration of H+ ions in water.

NH4+(aq)  → NH3(aq) + H+(aq)

The ammonium ion acts as a weak acid in aqueous solution, dissociating into ammonia and a hydrogen ion.

An Arrhenius base is a substance that, when added to water, increases the concentration of OH- ions in water.

NH4+(aq) will not dissciate in OH- ions. So it's not a base, but an acid.

A gas that effuses through a porous cylinder 1.87 times faster than chlorine gas. what is the molar mass and identity.
Rufina [12.5K]
From the Graham's law of effusion;
R1/R2 = √MM2/√MM1
Molar mass of chlorine gas is 71
Therefore;
1.87= √ 71 /√mm1
= 1.87² = 71/mm1 
mm1 = 71/1.87²
         = 71/3.4969
         = 20.3
Thus, the molar mass of the other gas is 20.3 , and i think the gas is neon

Joebert had a rectangular cup and filled it with water. He measured the water's mass and volume. Then he got a density of 1.25g/
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Percent error = 25%

Explanation:

Given data:

Measured density of water = 1.25 g/mL

Accepted density value of water = 1 g/mL

Percent error = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percent error = (measured value - accepted value / accepted value) × 100

Now we will put the values in formula:

Percent error = (1.25 g/mL - 1 g/mL /1 g/mL )× 100

Percent error = (0.25 g/mL /1 g/mL )× 100

Percent error = 0.25 × 100

Percent error = 25%
