Question

Clasifica los siguientes elementos en metales, no metales, metaloides , o gases , nobles : flúor , azufre , nitrogeno , cloro , magnesio , helio , sodio , bromo , silicio , telurio

Answer 1

Answer:

 Translation:

Classify the following elements into metals, nonmetals, metalloids, or gases, noble : fluorine, sulfur, nitrogen, chlorine, magnesium, helium, sodium, bromine, silicon, tellurium.

• Metals: magnesium and sodium.
• Nonmetals: fluorine, chlorine, bromine, sulfur and nitrogen.
• Metalloids: silicon and tellurium.
• Noble gases: helium.

Explanation:

Metals: They occupy the left and central areas of the Periodic Table; therefore, they constitute a majority group of the elements.

Nonmetals: They are located in the upper right region of the Periodic Table.

Within the Periodic Table, the metalloids lie diagonally from boron to polonium. Items above on the right are nonmetals, and items below on the left are metals.

The noble gases are located in group 18 of the Periodic Table.

Answer 2

Answer:

fluorine: it is a gas at room temperature

sulfur: it is a metal

nitrogen: it is a diatomic gas

chlorine: it is a halogen

helium: it is a gas

sodium: alkali metal

magnesium: metal

bromine: halogen

silicon: metalloid

tellurium: it is a semi-metal

Explanation:

the grouping of the chemical compounds respect a location in the periodic table, and this classification exists since all the compounds have different behaviors, different melting and boiling temperatures and even different valence, oxidation, atomic masses.
