How many alkali metals will combine with 1 oxygen family member

Chemistry
1 answer:
Daniel [21]3 years ago
7 0
The alkali metals are so reactive that they are never found in nature in elemental form. Although some of their ores are abundant, isolating them from their ores is somewhat difficult. For these reasons, the group 1 elements were unknown until the early 19th century, when Sir Humphry Davy first prepared sodium (Na) and potassium (K) by passing an electric current through molten alkalis. (The ashes produced by the combustion of wood are largely composed of potassium and sodium carbonate.) Lithium (Li) was discovered 10 years later when the Swedish chemist Johan Arfwedson was studying the composition of a new Brazilian mineral. Cesium (Cs) and rubidium (Rb) were not discovered until the 1860s, when Robert Bunsen conducted a systematic search for new elements. Known to chemistry students as the inventor of the Bunsen burner, Bunsen’s spectroscopic studies of ores showed sky blue and deep red emission lines that he attributed to two new elements, Cs and Rb, respectively. Francium (Fr) is found in only trace amounts in nature, so our knowledge of its chemistry is limited. All the isotopes of Fr have very short half-lives, in contrast to the other elements in group 1.

Calculate the molarity of a 17.5% (by mass) aqueous solution of nitric acid. Select one: a. 2.74 m b. 4.33 m c. 0.274 m d. 3.04
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Option e.

Explanation:

Molarity is the concentration that indicates moles of solute in 1 L of solution.

We have another concentration, percent by mass.

Percent by mass indicates mass of solute in 100 g of solution.

Our solute is HNO₃, our solvent is water.

17.5 g of nitric acid is the mass of solute. We can convert them to moles:

17.5 g . 1mol / 63g = 0.278 moles

We do not have volume of solution. We assume the mass is 100 g because the percent by mass but we need density to state the volume.

Density = Mass / Volume

Mass / Density = Volume

Once we have the volume, we need to be sure the units is in L, to determine molarity

M = mol /L

4. Imagine you have a radioactive sample containing both Virtualium and decayed atoms of Virtualium. After analysis, you find it
Romashka [77]

My sample would be 4000 years old because on my graph, I had about 9 Virtualium left at trial 4 so I am guessing that it would be 4000 years old.
