Which element would mostly have chemical properties similar to that of magnesium (Mg)?
1 answer:
The elements of same group are placed in same group as they have similar properties. So Calcium is the element which resembles Mangesium.
Calcium and Magnesium both are alkaline earth metals.
They have similar properties as they have similar outer or valence shell electronic configuration
The general electronic configuration of alkaline earht metal is ns2
The electronic configuration of Mg [atomic number 12] and Ca [atomic number 20] are
and
respectively.

The answer is 33.2 moles of a solute is present in 4.00 L of an 8.30 M solution , Option A is correct .
<h3>What is Molarity ?</h3>Molarity is defined as the amount of solute (in moles)in per litre of solution.
It is also known as molar concentration of a solution , It is expressed in mol/l
We can rearrange this equation to get the number of moles:
n= M * V
The molarity of solution is 8.3 M and the volume given is 4 litres
the moles will be n = 8.30 * 4 = 33.2 moles
Therefore 33.2 moles of a solute is present in 4.00 L of an 8.30 M solution , Option A is correct .
