Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals are the species which have excess of electrons. Metals are placed from left side to more than middle side of the periodic table.

Some properties of metals are as follows.

  • Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
  • They are malleable and ductile i.e, they can be drawn into thin sheets and wires.
  • They are lustrous in appearance.
  • Metals generally have high melting point.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, characteristic they are malleable is typical of metals.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case, let's see both molecules per separate:

In the case of SeO₂ the central atom would be the Se. The Se has oxidation states of 2+, and 4+. In this molecule it's working with the 4+, while oxygen is working with the 2- state. Now, how do we know that Se is working with that state?, simply, let's do an equation for it. We know that this molecule has a formal charge of 0, so:

Se = x

O = -2

x + (-2)*2 = 0

x - 4 = 0

x = +4.

Therefore, Selenium is working with +4 state, the only way to bond this molecule is with a covalent bond, and in the case of the oxygen will be with double bond. See picture below.

In the case of CO₂ happens something similar. Carbon is working with +4 state, so in order to stabilize the charges, it has to be bonded with double bonds with both oxygens. The picture below shows.

When a solution containing 1.4000 g of Ba(NO3)2 and 2.4000 g of HSO3NH2 is boiled, a precipitate forms. One possible identity fo
Georgia [21]

Answer:

See explanation for detailed solution

Explanation:

The balanced reaction equation is Ba(NO3)2 + 2HSO3NH2 → Ba(SO3NH2)2 + 2HNO3

Number of moles of Ba(NO3)2 = 1.4 g/ 261.337 g/mol = 5.36 × 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of Ba(NO3)2 yields 1 mole of Ba(SO3NH2)2

5.36 × 10^-3 moles of Ba(NO3)2 yields 5.36 × 10^-3 moles of Ba(SO3NH2)2

For HSO3NH2

Number of moles = 2.4g/97.10 g/mol =0.0247 moles

2 moles of HSO3NH2 yields 1 mole of Ba(SO3NH2)2

0.0247 moles of HSO3NH2 yields 0.0247 ×1/2 = 0.0137 moles

Hence, Ba(NO3)2 is the limiting reactant

The theoretical yield of Ba(SO3NH2)2 is 5.36 × 10^-3 moles × 329.4986 g/mol = 1.766 g

b)

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass = mass/ number of moles

Molar mass = 1.6925 g/5.36 × 10^-3 moles = 315.76 g

Which of the following pairs of elements could possibly be in the same group? X has a 1+ ion; Y has a 1- ion. X tends to form a
exis [7]
Let's eliminate these one by one.
The first pair would not be the same, as X would most likely be in group IA, and Y would be in group VIIA, because of their tendency to gain and lose electrons.
The second pair would also violate the same rule, but X would most likely be in group IIA, and Y would most likely be in group VIA.
The third pair would not be the same, as X is most likely in group VIIA, and since Y has eight valence electrons, it is most likely a noble gas.
The final pair has X with atomic number 15, making it phosphorous. Phosphorous wants to gain 3 electrons to have a full octet of 8 outer "valence" electrons, and Y would also like to gain 3 electrons. This means it is possible that the final pair would be in the same group.
