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.

What type of energy does a person experience when jumping on a trampoline?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Knetic

Explanation:

When you jump on a trampoline, your body has kinetic energy that changes over time. As you jump up and down, your kinetic energy increases and decreases with your velocity. Your kinetic energy is greatest, just before you hit the trampoline on the way down and when you leave the trampoline surface on the way up.

an element has a metallic gray appearance. it also has the properties of both a metal and a nonmetal. in which section of the pe
irinina [24]
If it has properties of metal and non metal it is considered a metalloid there are very few spots in which metalloids are located the spots I circled on a blank periodic tables are where the metalloids are located on an actual periodic table your only options are
boron(B) silicon(si) germanium(Ge) arsenic(As)antimony(Sb)tellurium(Te)astatine(At)those are the only places on the periodic table that has metalloids... I hope this helps

Acetone major species present when dissolved in water
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: acetone molecule ( CH₃-CO-CH₃)


Explanation:


1) Acetone is CH₃-CO-CH₃


2) That is a molecule (build up of covalent bonds).


3) When dissolved, covalent bonded compounds remain as separate molecules, then it is said that the major species present in the solution is the molecule. The molecules of acetone are surrounded (sovated) by the molecules of water.


This as opposed to the case of ionic compounds that ionize. When a compound as NaCl dissolves in water, it ionizes completely, so the major speceies are not NaCl formulas, but the ions Na⁺ and Cl⁻, not molecules.


That leads to the answer: the major species present when acetone is dissolved in water is the molecules of acetone (you do not need to state the fact that the molecules of water are part of the solution, because that is not the target of the question).

Olenka [21]
(80+125+45) / 10 = 250/10 =25
25 meters per minute= 0.41 meters/second

the direction and stopping time is irrelevant to the problem.

A.Which facilities contribute the most to recycling and the least to recycling based on the pie chart graphic?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

a) To determine the facilities that contribute the most to recycling check the pie chart and select the facility with the largest portion while to determine the facilities that contribute the least to recycling check the pie chart and select the facility with the smallest portion

b) Energy is saved because the products which are recycled usually require less energy to turn them into usable materials

c) It saves energy through recycling. It helps sustains the environment. It decrease the emission of green house gases

Explanation:

The question is not complete

a) Pie chart is the graphical representation of information in which the information is represented in a circle. The circle is divided into segments and the portion with the largest segment has the highest percentage.

To determine the facilities that contribute the most to recycling check the pie chart and select the facility with the largest portion while to determine the facilities that contribute the least to recycling check the pie chart and select the facility with the smallest portion

b) Extraction and processing of raw resources to make end products requires a lot of energy.  With recycling energy is saved because the products which are recycled usually require less energy to turn them into usable materials

c) It saves energy through recycling. It helps sustains the environment. It decrease the emission of green house gases.
