Answer:

                    Transition Element

Explanation:

                     Transition elements are defined as those elements which can form at least one stable ion and has partially filled d-orbitals. They are also characterized by forming complex compounds and having different oxidation states for a single metal element.

                      Transition metals are present between the metals and the non metals in the periodic table occupying groups from 3 to 12. There general electronic configuration is as follow,

                                                   (n-1)d ¹⁻¹⁰ns ¹⁻²

The general configuration shows that for a given metal, the d sublevel will be in lower energy level as compared to corresponding s sublevel. For example,

Scandium is present in fourth period hence, its s sublevel is present in 4rth energy level so its d sublevel will be present in 3rd energy level respectively.

Hence, we can conclude that for transition metals the electron are present in highest occupied s sublevel and a nearby d sublevel .

Write the balanced equation for the reaction of hydrogen chloride with sodium hydrogen carbonate to give sodium chloride, carbon
marusya05 [52]
These are the formulas of each compound mentioned:

1) Hydrogen chloride: HCl

2) Sodium hydrogen carbonate: NaHCO3 , this is also known as sodium bicarbonate. The number 3 to the right of O is a subscript.

3) Sodium chloride: NaCl

4) Carbon dioxide: CO2. This is also known as carbon anhydride. The number 2 to the right of O is a subscript.

5) Water: H2O. The number 2 to the right of H is a subscript.

The the chemical equation is:

HCl + NaHCO3 → NaCl + CO2 + H2O

Check the balance

element      left side      right side
H                 1+1 = 2        2
Cl                1                 1
Na               1                 1
C                 1                 1
O                 3                 2+1 = 3

Then, given that the number of each element on the left side is equal to the number of elements in the right side, the equation is balanced.

Is oxygen a beginning substance or ending substance?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Explanation:

The substances that are present at the beginning are called reactants and the substances present at the end are called products. Sometimes when reactants are put into a reaction vessel, a reaction will take place to produce products. Reactants are the starting materials, that is, whatever we have as our initial ingredients.Oxygen, a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas essential to living organisms, being taken up by animals, which convert it to carbon dioxide; plants, in turn, utilize carbon dioxide as a source of carbon and return the oxygen to the atmosphere. Oxygen forms compounds by reaction with practically any other element.
