Answer:
2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3
Explanation:
First of all, let us balance the equation to give;
2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 3NaOH
Now, we can observe the presence of positive Sodium ions (Na+) and negative hydroxyl ions (OH-) on both left and right sides of the equation.
Now, the two ions will cancel out. These ions are not really involved in the overall reaction and thus do not require being written in the overall equation. Hence, the overall net ionic reaction can now be written as:
2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3
Answer:
The metal has a heat capacity of 0.385 J/g°C
This metal is copper.
Explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>: Data given
Mass of the metal = 21 grams
Volume of water = 100 mL
⇒ mass of water = density * volume = 1g/mL * 100 mL = 100 grams
Initial temperature of metal = 122.5 °C
Initial temperature of water = 17°C
Final temperature of water and the metal = 19 °C
Heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C
<u />
<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the specific heat capacity
Heat lost by the metal = heat won by water
Qmetal = -Qwater
Q = m*c*ΔT
m(metal) * c(metal) * ΔT(metal) = - m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)
21 grams * c(metal) *(19-122.5) = -100 * 4.184 * (19-17)
-2173.5 *c(metal) = -836.8
c(metal) = 0.385 J/g°C
The metal has a heat capacity of 0.385 J/g°C
This metal is copper.
The classification of it being a metal, nonmetal, or metalliod will be useful in the process of elimination to determine what it is. Then for the second test, meauring the atomin radius will narrow it down quicker to the mystery elemet's name.
Since you determined what part of the periodic table it's on, then when measuring the atomic radius, you should be able to pinpoint what the element is more surely.
Because they have similar attractive forces in their molecules
