Which of the following pairs of elements could possibly be in the same group? X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion. X tends to form a

2+ ion; Y tends to gain two electrons. X will tend to gain one electron; Y has eight valence electrons. X has an atomic number 15; Y forms a 3- ion.

Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.

Answer is: X has an atomic number 15; Y forms a 3- ion.

1)  X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion is not correct, because X is probably metal (lost one electron, group 1) and Y is nonmetal (gain one electron, group 17).

2) X tends to form a 2+ ion; Y tends to gain two electrons is not correct, because X lost two electrons (probably metal from group 2).

3) X will tend to gain one electron; Y has eight valence electrons is not correct, because X is probably from group 17 and Y is noble gas (group 18).

4) Y is phosphorus (atomic number 15, group 15) and Y is nonmetal from group 15.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease that causes thick, sticky mucus to build up in organs, including the lungs and the pancreas. In a healthy person, mucus that lines organs and body cavities, such as the lungs and the nose, is slippery and watery. In people with CF, thick mucus clogs causes symptoms in the lungs and pancreas.

How many moles of ammonium ions are in 125 mL of 1.40 M NH4NO3 solution? ________ moles (give answer with correct sig figs in un
Sholpan [36]

The number of mole of ammonium ion, NH₄⁺ in the solution is 0.175 mole

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of NH₄NO₃ in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume = 125 mL = 125 / 1000 = 0.125 L

Molarity = 1.40 M

<h3>Mole of NH₄NO₃ =? </h3>

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of NH₄NO₃ = 1.40 × 0.125

<h3>Mole of NH₄NO₃ = 0.175 mole</h3>

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of ammonium ion, NH₄⁺ in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

NH₄NO₃(aq) —> NH₄⁺(aq) + NO₃¯(aq)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of NH₄NO₃ contains 1 mole of NH₄⁺

Therefore,

0.175 mole of NH₄NO₃ will also contain 0.175 mole of NH₄⁺

Thus, the number of mole of ammonium ion, NH₄⁺ in the solution is 0.175 mole

Answer:

A. Na₂SO₄ and HCl

C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents

Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.

Like dissolves like simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other

Explanation:

A. Ionic substances like Na₂SO₄ are composed of charged particles called ions. These ions are either positively charged or negatively charged, therefore, they are attracted to substances of opposite charges. Also, polar molecules like HCl contains two oppositely charged ends. A polar solvent consists of molecules with two oppositely charged ends, therefore, ionic substances as well polar substances dissolve in them according to the concept of like dissolves like.

Gasoline being non-polar will only dissolve in like substances, polar solvents.

C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents

Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.

The statement "Like dissolves like" simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other. For example gasoline, a non-polar substance will dissolve only in a non-polar solvent like kerosene. Also, HCl, a polar molecule will dissolve in a polar solvent like water.

Information gathered by a scientist about the toxicity of chemical X and chemical Y showed that they had individual safe limits
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Synergism

Explanation:

This is an example of Synergism. Synergism is nothing but working out of two medicines together.

Examples of medical synergies are when doctors treat microbial heart infections with ampicillin and Gentamicin and when people with cancer undergo radiation and chemotherapy or more than one chemotherapy drug at a time.
