Answer:

All elements in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons. This made it possible to compare the valence of the alien elements to the valence of elements from our periodic table, and match the alien elements to the correct group. For example, our group 14 elements all have 4 valence electrons, so the alien element with 4 valence electrons had to be part of group 14 also.

Explanation:

Knowing the number of valence electrons in one of the alien elements helps in identifying it because the number of valence electrons can help categorize the alien element. Similar elements have the same valence electrons and knowing the category of the element can help further analyze the element.

The bottom number on the periodic table is called?

salantis [7]

Answer:

The atomic number that should be here, 57, is located at the bottom of the table in the row called the Lanthanides. Directly below the space in Row 6, in Row 7, is another empty space, which is filled by a row called the Actinides, also seen at the bottom of the chart.

A 5.00-mL sample of blood was treated with trichloroacetic acid to precipitate proteins. After centrifugation, the resulting sol

Anarel [89]

Explanation:

According to the Beer-lambert' s law,

Absrobance = absrobptitvity × lenght × concentration

So, if we will plot a graph between absrobance and concentration then we will obtain a straight line

Hence, formula to calculate slope of the graph is as follows.

The slope of graph = $\frac{\text{difference in absrobance at two points}}{\text{difference in concentrations at those points}}$

The given data is as follows.

$A_{1}$ = 0.412 (first point)

$A_{2}$ = 0.642 (second point)

$C_{1}$ = 0.240 ppm (first point)

$C_{2}$ = 0.475 ppm (second point)

Hence, putting these values into the above formula we will calculate the value of slope as follows.

Slope = $\frac{\text{difference in absrobance at two points}}{\text{difference in concentrations at those points}}$

= $\frac{0.642 - 0.412}{0.475 - 0.240}$

= $\frac{0.23}{0.235}$

= 0.978

It is known that for the graph, line equation can be written as follows.

y = mx + c ........... (1)

where, C = intercept

m = slope

Hence, calculate the value of intercept as follows.

0.412 = $0.24 \times 0.978$ + c

c = 0.178

As it is given that the absorbance values 0.454 (the y-axis value). Therefore, putting this value into equation (1) we get the following.

y = mx + c

0.454 = $x \times 0.978$ + 0.178

0.276 = 0.978x

x = 0.282 ppm

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of Pb in the given sample is 0.282 ppm.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

The two elements are POLONIUM and RADIUM.

Explanation:

Maria Curie is a French physicist and chemist, though she was of a Polish naturals. She was the first woman to receive a Noble Price which she earned for conducting leading and head way research on radioactivity. She discovered the theory of radioactivity; also the techniques isolating radioactive isotopes. These helped her and her husband discover Polium and Radium.
