Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.

Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.

Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.

A scientist has two samples of gas: The first sample contains one mole of argon atoms and has a mass of 39.948 g; the second sam
V125BC [204]

There are 6.022 × 10²³ atoms in 39.948 g of argon and 4.0026 g of helium.

Explanation:

39.945 g/mole is the molar mass of argon so 39.948 g of argon are equal to 1 mole of argon.

4.0026 g/mole is the molar mass of helium so 4.0026 g of helium are equal to 1 mole of helium.

We know that Avogadro's number tell us the number of particles in 1 mole of substance which is 6.022 × 10²³.

So in 39.948 g of argon and 4.0026 g of helium contains the same number of atoms, 6.022 × 10²³.

2.56 g of hydrogen reacts completely with 20.32 g of oxygen<br> to form X g of water. X = g
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Mass of water produced is 22.86 g.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of hydrogen = 2.56 g

Mass of oxygen = 20.32 g

Mass of water = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2H₂ + O₂   →  2H₂O

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 20.32 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.635 mol

Number of moles of hydrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.56 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.28 mol

Now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and hydrogen.

                    O₂            :            H₂O

                     1              :             2

                  0.635        ;            2×0.635 =  1.27

                   H₂             :              H₂O

                    2              :              2

                 1.28            :           1.28

The number of  moles of water produced by oxygen are less thus it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of water produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.27 × 18 g/mol

Mass = 22.86 g

What is the purpose of the periodic table?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

the periodic table is important because it is organized to provide a alot of information about elements and how they relate to one another in one easy-to-use reference. The table can be used to predict the properties of elements, even those that have not yet been discovered.

c) the salt solubility decreases with temperature.

Salts usually dissolve in water at a given temperature. When water cannot dissolve anymore salt at that same temperature, it is known as a saturation point. With most substances the solubility increases with increase in temperature. Same is the case for a salt like potassium nitrate. With increase in temperature the ability of it to dissolve in water increases. And so with decrease in temperature, the solubility decreases.
