One aluminum atom will cost 0.84 × 10⁻²³ cents.

Explanation:

Aluminium costs 85 cents per 453.592 grams.

number of moles = mass / atomic weight

number of moles of aluminium = 453.592 / 27 = 16.8 moles

To calculate the number of aluminum atoms we use the Avogadro's number:

if         1 mole of aluminum contains 6.022 × 10²³ aluminum atoms

then    16.8 moles of aluminum contains X aluminum atoms

X = (16.8 × 6.022 × 10²³) / 1 = 101.17 × 10²³ aluminum atoms

Now, taking in account the aluminium price, we devise the following reasoning:

if         101.17 × 10²³ aluminum atoms costs 85 cents

then   1 aluminum atom costs Y cents

Y = (1 × 85) / (101.17 × 10²³) = 0.84 × 10⁻²³ cents

ANSWER:

4 a) Specific elements have more than one oxidation state, demonstrating variable valency.

For example, the following transition metals demonstrate varied valence states: Fe^{2+}, Fe^{3+}, Cr^{2+}, Cr^{3+}, etc.

Normal metals such as Pb^{2+} and Pb^{4+} also show variable valencies. Certain non-metals are also found to show more than one valence state Pb^{3+} and Pb^{5+}.

4 b) Isotopes are members of a family of an element that all have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

For example, Carbon-14 is a naturally occurring radioactive isotope of carbon, having six protons and eight neutrons in the nucleus. However, C-14 does not last forever and there will come a time when it loses its extra neutrons and becomes Carbon-12.

5 a) 2Fe + 3Cl_2 → 2FeCl_3    

5 b) 3Pb + 8HNO_3 → 3Pb (NO_3)_2 + 4H_2O + 2NO_2

5 c) Zn + H_2SO_4 → ZnSO_4 + H_2   (already balanced so don't need to change)

5 d) 2H_2 + O_2 → 2H_2O

5 e) 2Mg + 2HCl → 2MgCl + H_2

EXPLANATION (IF NEEDED):

1. Write out how many atoms of each element is on the left (reactant side) and right (product side) of the arrow.

2. Start multiplying each side accordingly to try to get atoms of the elements on both sides equal.
