Answer is: group 17 on the periodic table.
Group 17 (halogens) elements are: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and iodine (I).
They are very reactive and easily form many compounds.
Fluorine and chlorine are in gaseous state, bromine is liquid and iodine is in solid state in room temperature.
Halogens need to gain one electron to have electron cofiguration like next to it noble gas.
For example, fluorine has 9 electrons and it gain easily one electron in chemical reaction to have electron configuration like noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.
Answer:
CH4<HClO2<HClO<H2O<HCl
Explanation:
In ranking the compounds on the basis of increasing positive charge of hydrogen, we must consider the relative oxidation numbers of the various elements in the compounds.
Methane contains a nonpolar covalent bond, HClO2 contains a chlorine atom in +3 oxidation state, HClO contains a chlorine atom in +1 oxidation state. The more the positive charge on the halogen atom the lesser the magnitude of positive charge on the hydrogen atom. Between water and HCl, chlorine is more electro negative hence HCl will contain a more positively charged hydrogen atom than water.
Explanation:
one mole of any substance there are 6.022×1023 units of that substance. (This number is called Avogadro's number, NA.)
We need to convert the mass of silicon to moles using the molar mass of silicon, 28.06gmol. This number means that one mole of pure silicon would have a mass of 28.06g. Our given mass, however, is in milligrams; to convert this to grams we'll use the conversion factor 1g103mg:
5.86mg Si(1g103mg)=0.00586g Si
Now, using silicon's molar mass, we'll convert this mass to moles of Si:
0.00586g Si(1mol Si28.06g Si)=2.09×10−4mol Si
Finally, let's use Avogadro's number to convert
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Chemical properties are defined as the properties which tend to chemical composition of a substance. Neutral elements with similar number of valence electrons tend to show similar chemical properties as these have same reactivity which actually affects their chemical properties.
This means that elements of the same group tend to show similar chemical properties.
For example, oxygen and sulfur atom are both group 16 elements and they have 6 valence electrons. Therefore, they show similar chemical properties.
Thus, we can conclude that a pair of O and S elements is expected to be most similar in their chemical properties.
