Which three elements have lower melting point than calcium?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lakkis [162]3 years ago
6 0

Calcium belongs to the alkaline earth metal group. Within a group, the melting point decreases from top to bottom. This is because the as the atomic radii increases the outer valence electrons are shielded by the inner electrons and experience a lower nuclear attraction. As a result the bonds can be broken easily which lowers their melting point.

The three elements below Calcium ib Group II A which have a lower melting point are: Strontium (Sr), Barium (Ba) and Radium (Ra)

A piece of magnesium is in the shape of a cylinder with a height of 6.62 cm and a diameter of 2.34 cm. If the magnesium sample h
frez [133]

Answer:

0.600 g/cm³

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Height of the cylinder (h): 6.62 cm
  • Diameter of the cylinder (d): 2.34 cm
  • Mass of the cylinder (m): 17.1 g

Step 2: Calculate the volume of the cylinder

First, we have to determine the radius, which is half of the diameter.

r = d/2 = 2.34 cm/2 = 1.17 cm

Then, we use the formula for the volume of the cylinder.

V= π × r² × h

V= π × (1.17 cm)² × 6.62 cm

V = 28.5 cm³

Step 3: Calculate the density (ρ) of the sample

The density is equal to the mass divided by the volume.

ρ = m/V

ρ = 17.1 g/28.5 cm³

ρ = 0.600 g/cm³

How many moles of aluminum do 4.40×1024 aluminum atoms represent?
zhannawk [14.2K]
For this problem we use the Avogadro's number which is an empirical value that relates the number of particles to the number of moles. Its approximated value is 6.022×10²³ atoms/mole. The solution is as follows:

4.40×10²⁴ aluminum atoms * 1 moles/6.022×10²³ atoms = 7.306

Thus, there are 7.306 moles of aluminum.

How many moles of gas are contained in a 60.0L cylinder at a pressure of 200.0 atm and a temperature of 25.0? A.(490.48 mol) B.(
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer: A. 490.48mol

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas equation; PV =nRT

where P = Presssure = 200 atm

          V = Volume = 60L

          n = Number of moles

          R = Gas constant = 0.08206 L.atm/mol/K

          T = Temperature = 25 °C  + 273 = 298K

Make "n" the subject of the formular;

n =  PV /  RT

   =  200   x    60   /    0.08206 x  298

   =  490.73  mol, which is closest to  option A. 490.48mol
