The correct answer among the choices listed is option B. Most of the nonmetals found are found in the right side of the periodic table. There are seventeen nonmetal elements that can found on that side. Nonmetal elements are poor conductors of heat and electricity.
Answer:
Double replacement:
Explanation:
Chemical equation:
2AsCl + 3H₂S → As₂S₃ + 6HCl
The given reaction is double displacement reaction. In this reaction arsenic trichloride and hydrogen sulfide react and produced arsenic sulfide and hydrogen chloride. In double displacement reaction both anion an cation of reactants are exchanged with each other.
Double replacement:
It is the reaction in which two compound exchange their ions and form new compounds.
General equation:
AB + CD → AD +CB
<u>Answer:</u> Non-metals form ions when they gain electrons.
<u>Explanation:</u>
An ion is formed when an atom looses or gains electron.
- When an atom looses electrons, it will form a positive ion known as cation.
- When an atom gains electrons, it will form a negative ion known as anion.
Metals are the elements which have a tendency to loose electrons and thus they form cations. <u>Example:</u> Sodium will loose 1 electron to form 
ion.
Non-metals are the elements which have a tendency to gain electrons and thus they form anions. <u>Example:</u> Fluorine will gain 1 electron to form 
ion.
Hence, non-metals form ions when they gain electrons.
Answer:
0.924 g
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Volume of CO2 at RTP = 0.50 dm³
Mass of CO2 =?
Next, we shall determine the number of mole of CO2 that occupied 0.50 dm³ at RTP (room temperature and pressure). This can be obtained as follow:
1 mole of gas = 24 dm³ at RTP
Thus,
1 mole of CO2 occupies 24 dm³ at RTP.
Therefore, Xmol of CO2 will occupy 0.50 dm³ at RTP i.e
Xmol of CO2 = 0.5 /24
Xmol of CO2 = 0.021 mole
Thus, 0.021 mole of CO2 occupied 0.5 dm³ at RTP.
Finally, we shall determine the mass of CO2 as follow:
Mole of CO2 = 0.021 mole
Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + (2×16) = 13 + 32 = 44 g/mol
Mass of CO2 =?
Mole = mass /Molar mass
0.021 = mass of CO2 /44
Cross multiply
Mass of CO2 = 0.021 × 44
Mass of CO2 = 0.924 g.
