Which two elements have the most similar chemical properties?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Sedbober [7]3 years ago
4 0

atoms are made of 3 types of sub atomic particles- protons, neutrons and electrons

from these 3 particles, electrons are responsible for participating in chemical bonds. therefore chemical properties of elements are based on the number of electrons present.

valence electrons are the number of electrons in the outermost energy shell that are involved in chemical bonds.

atoms with same number of valence electrons are grouped in to columns called groups.

therefore elements of the same group have same number of valence electrons, hence similar chemical properties.

from the options given

only Be and Mg belong to the same group they both belong to group 2 with 2 valence electrons

therefore Be and Mg have similar chemical properties

answer is

1) Be and Mg

Give the chemical formula and systematic name for aurous sulfide, which is named using the older nomenclature. spelling counts!
Bingel [31]
Aurous is a cation of gold. Gold takes the name "aurum" (Au) with atomic number of 79. In its purest form, the element is bright, slightly yellow, soft, ductile, and malleable. The charge of aurous is +1. Sulfide, on the other hand, has a charge of -2. 

Hence, the chemical formula of the compound is Au₂S and its systematic name is gold (I) sulfide.

Empirical formula of a compound composed of 32.1 g potassium (k) and 6.57 g oxygen (o)?
tester [92]

The empirical formula is K₂O.

The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio</em> of atoms in a compound.

The <em>ratio of atom</em>s is the same as the <em>ratio of moles</em>.

So, our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of K to O.

Step 1. Calculate the <em>moles of each element </em>

Moles of K = 32.1 g K × (1 mol K/(39.10 g K =) = 0.8210 mol K

Moles of O = 6.57 g O × (1 mol O/16.00 g O) = 0.4106 mol 0

Step 2. Calculate the <em>molar ratio of each elemen</em>t

Divide each number by the smallest number of moles and round off to an integer

K:O = 0.8210:0.4106 = 1.999:1 ≈ 2:1

Step 3: Write the <em>empirical formula </em>

EF = K₂O

Each of the following reactions is incomplete. Match each of the following particles with the correct reaction in order to compl
kiruha [24]

Answer:

1. Option A. Beta decay minus 0 -1e

2. Option B. Alpha 4 2He

3. Option A. Beta decay minus 0 -1e

Explanation:

1. 66 29Cu is undergoing beta decay minus since it produces a daughter nuclei having the same mass number and the atomic number increased by 1 i.e 66 30Zn

2. 238 92U is undergoing alpha decay since the daughter nuclei produced has a decrease of 4 in the mass number and a decrease of 2 in the atomic number ie 234 90Th

3. 14 6C is undergoing beta decay minus since the daughter nuclei produced has the same mass number and the atomic number increased by 1 i.e 14 7N

A gas has volume of 800.0mL at -23.0°c and 300.0torr. What would the volume of the gas be at 227.0°c and 600.0torr of pressure
valkas [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

use gas law eqation

P1 * V1  / T1 = P2 * V2 /T2

600*V1/227 = 300*800/23

V1 = 300*800*227 / 23*600 = ............ can you solve this and get the answer?
