The representative elements are elements where the s and p orbitals are filling. The transition elements are elements where the d orbitals (groups 3–11 on the periodic table) are filling, and the inner transition metals are the elements where the f orbitals are filling.
Answer:
The equation is already balanced. There's an equal number of materials on each side of the equation.
Answer:
18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes to produce 9.0 grams of mercury
Explanation:
Mercury oxide has molar mass of 216.6 g/ mol. It gas a molecular formula of HgO.
The decomposition of mercury oxide is given by the chemical equation below:
2HgO ----> 2Hg + O₂
2 moles of HgO decomposes to produce 1 mole of Hg
2 moles of HgO has a mass of 433.2 g
433.2 g of HgO produces 216.6 g of Hg
18.0 of HgO will produce 18 × 216.6/433.2 g of Hg = 9.0 g of Hg
Therefore, 18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes to produce 9.0 grams of mercury
