Which elements have the most similar chemical properties?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mumz [18]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: K and Na

Explanation:

Potassium and Sodium have a chemical symbol of K and Na respectively.

They have similar chemical properties because both

- have only one valence electron,

- form univalent positive ion when they donate their lone outermost electron as shown below

Na --> Na+ + e-

K --> K+ + e-

- are good reducing agents

- react with cold water vigorously to liberate hydrogen gas and form alkalis, so they are known as alkali metals.

- K and Na are placed in Group 1 of the periodic table.

Thus, unlike the other pairs given, K and Na, have the most similar chemical properties

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Because the silk took away the electrons to allow the rod to become positive. They cant be destroyed because of the law of conservation of charges. Also protons cannot move only electrons can.

The nature of zinc powder and Cobalt (II )oxide is heated the following reaction occurs ;
Scilla [17]

1) The metal which reduces the other compound is the one higher in the reactivity. So in this case it is \mathrm{Zn}.

2) The substance which brings about reduction while itself getting oxidised (that is losing electrons) is called a reducing agent. Here, $\mathrm{Zn}$ is the reducing agent and reduces Cobalt Oxide to Cobalt while itself getting oxidised to Zinc oxide.

In a hypothetical atom, electron N transitions between energy levels, giving off orange light in the transition. In the same ato
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer : Electron P has greater energy difference than the Electron N.

Explanation :  

Wavelength range of violet light = 400 - 500 nm

Wavelength range of orange light = 600 - 700 nm

The Planck's equation is,

E=\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy of light

c = speed of light

\lambda = wavelength of light

According to the Planck's equation, wavelength and energy follow inverse relation. As the wavelength increases, energy decreases.

From the given spectrum, the wavelength of violet light is less. We conclude that When electron P gives violet light on transition it means that energy difference between the energy level was high.

From the given spectrum, the wavelength of orange light is more. We conclude that When electron N  gives orange light on transition it means that energy difference between the energy level was low.

So, Electron P which gives violet light on transition has greater energy difference than the Electron N.
