The first periodic table was organized according to atomic mass, but the current periodic table is arranged according to atomic

number. What is the difference between atomic mass and atomic number, and why is the atomic number now the basis for the periodic table?

Answer: Atomic mass is associated with the number of neutrons and protons that are present in a particular nucleus of an element. Atomic number is usually the number of protons present in an element's nucleus. It is the average weight of an element. It is the total number of nucleons in the atom's nucleus.

Assuming there were errors in atomic masses, Mendeleev placed certain elements not in order of increasing atomic mass so that they could fit into the proper groups (similar elements have similar properties) of his periodic table.

Use the following key to classify each of the elements below in its elemental form:
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Magnesium - Metallic lattice

Nitrogen - Molecules

Lithium - Metallic lattice

Potassium - Metallic lattice

Explanation:

Metals exist in metallic lattices. In this lattice, metal ions are held together with a sea of electrons by strong electrostatic forces.

All metals possess this metallic lattice, hence; potassium, lithium and magnesium all consist of metal lattices.

Nitrogen is a nonmetal and consists of molecules of N2.

The first law of thermodynamics is observed when
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The first law of Thermodynamics is known as Conservation because it explains that energy is always maintained within a closed system and cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, this is observed when there is no longer change in temperature in a system. Mainly because the energy is not being transferred to and from another system. Without this transfer of energy, the energy itself gets conserved within the system and the temperature no longer fluctuates.

3. If the percent by volume is 2.0% and the volume of solution is 250 mL, what is the volume of solute in solution? (1 point) 0.
igor_vitrenko [27]
Volume percent = Volume of solute
                              ----------------------------------
                                Volume of the solution
  
                  2                    Volume of the solute
               -------   =           ------------------------------
                100                               250
                     
         Volume of the solute = 2 x 250
                                                ------------
                                                  100         

                                             =   5 mL.

Hope this helps!
