Chemistry
1 answer:
ohaa [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of electrons = 8

Number of protons = 8

Number of Neutrons = 8

Name of element =?

Next, we shall determine the atomic number of the element. This can be obtained as follow:

The atomic number of an element is simply defined as the number of protons in the atom of the element. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Atomic number = proton number

From the question given above,

Number of protons = 8

Therefore,

Atomic number = 8

Comparing the atomic number of the element (i.e 8) with those in the periodic table, we can conclude that the element is oxygen since no two elements have the same atomic number.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

b. It should be dumped in a beaker labeled "waste copper" on one's bench during the experiment.

d. It should be disposed of in the bottle for waste copper ion when work is completed.

Explanation:

Solutions containing copper ion should never be disposed of by dumping them in a sink or in common trash cans, because this will cause pollution in rivers, lakes and seas, being a contaminating agent to both human beings and animals. They should be placed in appropriate compatible containers that can be hermetically sealed. The sealed containers must be labeled with the name and class of hazardous substance they contain and the date they were generated.

It never should be returned to the bottle containing the solution, since it can contaminate the solution of the bottle.

In the Solutions and Spectroscopy experiments there is always wastes.

Which contains elements with similar properties in the periodic table? A. a period B. a column C. a row
Semmy [17]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Elements of a group represent similar chemical properties because they contain same number of valence electrons which determines their reactivity.

Hence, elements of a group have same chemical nature or property.

A group is represented by a vertical column in a periodic table.

On the other hand, a period is represented by a horizontal line.

Thus, we can conclude that a column contains elements with similar properties in the periodic table.
