Answer:
2Cu + S ~~~> Cu2S Copper (C) reacts with sulfur (S) to form copper sulfide as shown in the equation. A scientist adds 12.7 grams of Cu to 3.2 grams of S to start the reaction.
Explanation:
1,2-methylcyclohexane, 1,3-methylcyclohexane, 1,4-methylcyclohexane
Answer: Colligative properties are those properties of solutions that are dependent on the concentration of the solutes in the solution.
Colligative properties has to do with solutions, that is, solutes that are dissolved in solvents. Examples of colligative properties are: freezing point depression, vapour pressure lowering, boiling point elevation and osmotic pressure. Colligative properties do not depend on the identity of the solutes, this implies that the effect of colligative properties are uniform across all solutions. For example, the freezing point depression of any solution will depend on the concentration of solutes that are dissolve in solution.
Answer:
- <u><em>Magnesium and fluorine.</em></u>
Explanation:
<em>Ionic compounds</em> are formed by the electrostatic attraction of cations and anions.
Cations, positive ions, are formed when atoms lose electrons, and anions, negative ions, are formed when atoms gain electrons.
When two different atoms have similar atraction for electrons (electronegativity) they will not donate to nor catch electrons from each other, so cations and anions will not be formed. Instead, the atoms would prefer to share electrons forming covalent bonds to complete their outermost shell (octet rule).
Then, in order to form ionic compounds the electronegativities have to substantially different. This situation does not happen between two nonmetal elements, which nitrogen and sulfur are. Then, you can predict safely that nitrogen and sulfur will not form an ionic compound.
Ionic compounds, then require the electronegativity difference that exist between some metals and nonmetals. Being magnesium an alkaline earth metal, its electronegativity is very low. On the other hand, fluorine the first element of the group 17, has the highest electronegativity of all the elements.Thus magnesium and fluorine will have enough electronegativity difference to justify the exchange of electrons, forming ions and, consequently, ionic compounds.
What element has the same number of orbits as Hydrogen? Why? Do they have similar properties, why?
Answer:
Helium
Explanation:
Helium has the same number of orbitals as hydrogen because they belong to the same period on the periodic table.
Periods are the horizontal arrangement of elements. Elements in the same period are known to have the same number of electronic shell or orbitals.
In period 1 where we have just Hydrogen and Helium, the number of orbitals is 1.
For properties of a specie, elements in the same group which are the vertical arrangement of elements have the same properties. Since both Hydrogen and helium are in different groups, their properties differ.
