Answer:

Scandium

Explanation:

Mendeleev played an important role in the development of the modern periodic table. His periodic table was filled with gaps. He said that these gaps were elements that were yet to be discovered. He rightly predicted many elements which have now been discovered and fitted in their proper places in the periodic table.

He used the prefix ''eka'' to refer to elements whose properties were alike but were yet to be discovered at that time.

The compound named ekaboron which he predicted to have an atomic weight between 65 (zinc) and 75 (arsenic) with a valence similar to aluminum was later discovered in 1879 and properly named scandium.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

When copper(II) chloride and sodium carbonate solutions are combined, solid copper(II) carbonate precipitates, leaving a solution of sodium chloride. Write the conventional equation, total ionic equation, and net ionic equation for this reaction.

Explanation:

The word equation for the reaction is:

Copper (II) chloride(aq) + sodium carbonate (aq) ->sodium chloride (aq) +           copper carbonate(s)

The balanced chemical equation of the reaction is:

CuCl_2(aq)+Na_2CO_3(aq)->2NaCl(aq)+CuCO_3(s)

The complete ionic equation is:

Cu^2+(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+2Na^+(aq)+CO_3^2^-(aq)->2Cl^-(aq)+2Na^+(aq)+CuCO_3(s)\\

The net ionic equation is obtained from the complete ionic equation after removing the spectator ions:

Cu^2^+(aq)+CO_3^2^-(aq)->CuCO_3(s)

Which pair of substances would most likely result in the production of a gas when reacting with an acid?
vovangra [49]

Answer: metal and carbonate

Explanation:

According to Arrhenius concept, a base is defined as a substance which donates hydroxide ions (OH^-) when dissolved in water and an acid is defined as a substance which donates hydrogen ions (H^+) in water.

An acid is represented as :

HX\rightarrow H^++X^-

1. When metal is treated with an acid such as HCl, if the metal is more reactive than hydrogen displaces hydrogen from its salt solution and thus produce zinc chloride and hydrogen gas.

M+xHCl(aq)\rightarrow MCl_x(aq)+xH_2(g)

2. When carbonates are treated with acid, double displacement takes place ad carbon dioxide is released as a gas.

MCO_3(aq)+xHCl(aq)\rightarrow MCl_x(aq)+xH_2O(l)+CO_2(g)

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

D BIOMASS ENERGY

Explanation:

Most biomass requires arable land to develop. This means

that land used for biofuel crops such as corn and soybeans

are unavailable to grow food or provide natural habitats.

Forested areas that have matured for decades (so-called

“old-growth forests”) are able to sequester more carbon

than newly planted areas.
