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

Chemistry
1 answer:
natali 33 [55]3 years ago
7 0

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.

Which of the following properties would be the same among isotopes of the same element?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer : The properties which would be the same among isotopes of the same element are Flammability and Color

Explanation :

Isotopes are the elements that have same number of electrons and protons but they differ in number of neutrons.

The chemical properties of an element are determined by its valence electrons and since isotope have same number of electrons, they have similar chemical properties.

But isotopes have different number of neutrons. Neutrons are the subatomic particles which are present in the nucleus. They are charge less particles and they have mass. Therefore when the elements have different number of neutrons, their atomic masses differ.

As a result, isotopes have different mass related physical properties.

Let us discuss the given properties now

1) Flammability : Flammability in simple words means the ability of the substance to catch fire or the ability to burn. This is mainly dependent on the reactivity which is in turn dependent on the number of electrons.

Since the isotopes have same number of electrons, they show similar flammability.

2) Density : Density is defined as mass per unit volume. This property involves mass and we know that isotopes have different masses. Therefore they have different densities too.

3) Melting point : Melting point is a physical property which is mainly dependent on the molecular weight of the substance. Since isotopes have different masses, they tend to show different melting points.

4) Color : The color of the element is mainly dependent on the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus. Isotopes have same number of electrons which means the arrangement would also be the same. Therefore the isotopes of the same element do not show different colors.

The properties which would be same among isotopes of the same element are

1) Flammability

4) Color

What is the molality of a solution containing 10.0 G of NA2 S04 and 1000.0 G of water
galina1969 [7]

Explanation:

1 literThe total of water is equal to 1000.0 g of water

we need to find the molality of a solution containing 10.0 g of dissolved in  Na₂S0₄1000.0 g of water

1. For that find the molar mass

Na:  2 x 22.99= 45.98

S:  32.07

O:  4 x 16= 64

The total molar mass is 142.05

We have to find the number of moles, y

To find the number of moles divide 10.0g by 142.05 g/mol.

So the number of moles is 0.0704 moles.

For the molarity, you need the number of moles divided by the volume. So, 0.0704 mol/1 L.

The molarity would end up being 0.0704 M

The molality of a solution containing 10.0 g of Na2SO4 dissolved in 1000.0 g of water is  0.0704 Mliter
