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

The property of a substance stays ______________ no matter how the substance is used.
Irina18 [472]

Any substance changes to another substance that means the change of the physical property. Like water () has different state which changes as the temperature changes. It remain as liquid in the room temperature, in solid form at or below 0°C and vapor phase on or above 100°C. But in all the stage or phase of the substance the composition of the water i.e.  remains. Thus the chemical property remains fixed when a substance change to other substance.

The electronic configuration of an element is given below.
drek231 [11]

Answer:

C. It is reactive because it must gain two electrons to have a full outermost energy level.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The electron configuration of this element ends in 2s²2p⁴.

A filled energy level would end in 2s²2p⁶.

The element will be reactive, because it must gain electrons to have a full energy level, and it needs two more electrons to do this.

A chemist prepares a solution of magnesium chloride MgCl2 by measuring out 49.mg of MgCl2 into a 100.mL volumetric flask and fil
Flura [38]

Answer:  Molarity of Cl^- anions in the chemist's solution is 0.0104 M

Explanation:

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present per liter of the solution.

Formula used :

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

n= moles of solute

Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{0.049g}{95g/mol}=5.2\times 10^{-4}moles  

V_s = volume of solution in ml = 100 ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{5.2\times 10^{-4}moles\times 1000}{100ml}=5.2\times 10^{-3}mole/L

Therefore, the molarity of solution will be 5.2\times 10^{-3}mole/L

MgCl_2\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2Cl^-

As 1 mole of MgCl_2 gives 2 moles of Cl^-

Thus 5.2\times 10^{-3}  moles of MgCl_2 gives =\frac{2}{1}\times 5.2\times 10^{-3}=0.0104

Thus the molarity of Cl^- anions in the chemist's solution is 0.0104 M
