Periodic table is the representation of elements in an order

The history of periodic table can be summarized as

a) 1829 : Johann Dobereiner proposed the triad rule. According to him we can classify the elements in a triad where the atomic mass of middle element is average of atomic mass of the near by two atoms.

For example : Li, Na and K is a triad. Where atomic mass of Na is average of atomic mass of K

atomic mass of Na = 7+ 39 / 2 = 23

However, with the further discovery of elements the law was rejected.

b) 1864 : John Newland proposed the law of octave. According to him we can arrange the elements in a set of seven elements where the property of second set of seven elements will resemble the properties of first of seven elements or property will be repeated after seven elements. This was also rejected due to its limited applicability.

c) Meyer : He arranged some 28 elements into six different families based on their atomic masses. The members of each familiy shared some common properties.

d) 1869 : Mendleev : He actually developed a periodic table based on atomic mass of elements. He arranged the elements into groups and periods. He even left space for some undiscovered elements, which were later on discovered.

e) 1916 : Henry Moseley : He finally arranged elements based on their atomic number based on X-ray studies. He proposed the modern periodic law that the periodic properties of elements are due to atomic number of elements.

Answer:

Explanation:

phosphorus belongs to group 5 of the periodic table because it has 5 electron in its outermost shell the number of electron in the outermost shell of electron determine the group of the element in the periodic table

What are three ways that magma can form

ankoles [38]

The three ways magma can form are when rock is heated, when pressure is released, and when the composition of the rock changes. The temperature of magma is 1300-2400F. Magma collects in magma chambers under the earth's surface, and can be come to the surface in the form of lava.

Functional group and bond hybridization of vanillin

lana66690 [7]

Vanillin is the common name for 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzaldehyde.

See attached figure for the structure.

Vanillin have 3 functional groups:

1) aldehyde group: R-HC=O, in which the carbon is double bonded to oxygen

2) phenolic hydroxide group: R-OH, were the hydroxyl group is bounded to a carbon from the benzene ring

3) ether group: R-O-R, were hydrogen is bounded through sigma bonds to carbons

Now for the hybridization we have:

The carbon atoms involved in the benzene ring and the red carbon atom (from the aldehyde group) have a sp² hybridization because they are involved in double bonds.

The carbon atom from the methoxy group (R-O-CH₃) and the blue oxygen's have a sp³ hybridization because they are involved only in single bonds.
