All the nonmetals contains same high ionization energy.

High ionization energies.

High electronegativities.

Poor warm conductors.

Poor electrical conveyors.

Weak solids—not flexible or bendable.

Practically zero metallic shine.

Gain electrons effectively.

Dull, not metallic-glossy, in spite of the fact that they might be colorfu

all these properties are found common in non metals

Some physical properties that metals have in common are that they have luster, good thermal and electrical conductivity, high densities and melting points and are malleable. With the exception of mercury, most metals also are solid at room temperature.

Is oxygen a beginning substance or ending substance?

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Explanation:

The substances that are present at the beginning are called reactants and the substances present at the end are called products. Sometimes when reactants are put into a reaction vessel, a reaction will take place to produce products. Reactants are the starting materials, that is, whatever we have as our initial ingredients.Oxygen, a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas essential to living organisms, being taken up by animals, which convert it to carbon dioxide; plants, in turn, utilize carbon dioxide as a source of carbon and return the oxygen to the atmosphere. Oxygen forms compounds by reaction with practically any other element.

Menthol, the substance we can smell in mentholated cough drops, is composed of C, H, and O. A 0.1005 g sample of menthol is comb

Bogdan [553]

Answer: The molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=0.2829g$

Mass of $H_2O=0.1159g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.2829 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.2829=0.077g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.1159 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.1159=0.0129g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.1005) - (0.077 + 0.0129) = 0.0106 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.077g}{12g/mole}=0.0064moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.0129g}{1g/mole}=0.0129moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.0106g}{16g/mole}=0.00066moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.00066 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.0064}{0.00066}=9.69\approx 10$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.0129}{0.00064}=19.54\approx 20$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.00066}{0.00066}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 10 : 20 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{10}H_{20}O_1=C_{10}H_{20}O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 156.27 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 156 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{156.27g/mol}{156g/mol}=1$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 10)}H_{(1\times 20)}O_{(1\times 1)}=C_{10}H_{20}O$

Thus, the molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

The length breadth and thickness of a brick is 18cm 8 cm and 5cm respictively find the area of the widest part of rhe brick

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

144cm²

Explanation:

Given dimensions:

Length x breadth x thickness

18cm x 8cm x 5cm

The widest part of this figure will be the face containing the length and the breadth.

The breadth is the width of the figure;

Area of the widest part = length x breadth = 18cm x 8cm = 144cm

The area of the widest part of the figure is 144cm²
