Answer:

-Sulfur is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16. It is abundant, multivalent and nonmetallic. Under normal conditions, sulfur atoms form cyclic octatomic molecules with a chemical formula S₈. Elemental sulfur is a bright yellow, crystalline solid at room temperature.

(Atomic number: 16

Electron configuration: [Ne] 3s²3p⁴

Electrons per shell: 2,8,6

Electronegativity: 2.58)

-Calcium is the 20th element, with 20 protons. Since a stable atom has a net charge of 0, we must have 20 electrons.

-Carbon is a chemical element with the symbol C and atomic number 6. It is nonmetallic and tetravalent—making four electrons available to form covalent chemical bonds. It belongs to group 14 of the periodic table. Carbon makes up only about 0.025 percent of Earth's crust.

(Symbol: C

Atomic mass: 12.0107 u

Atomic number: 6

Electrons per shell: 2, 4

Electron configuration: [He] 2s22p2

Electronegativity: 2.55)

Molodets [167]
metal   have   free electrons  in  their   outer  shell  which  make  them  generally  good  conductors  of  electricity. Example  is  the  copper  which   is  used  for  electrical  wiring   since  is  a good  conductor  of  electricity.  copper  with   electronic configuration  of  (Ar)4s2 has  two  free  electrons  in  their  outer  most shell which  allow  it  to  conduct  electricity.

As the tempreture of a liquid increases the solubility of a liquid of that liquid
anzhelika [568]
As the temperature increases, the solubility of the solute in the liquid also increases.  This is due to the fact that the increase in energy allows the liquid to more effectively break up the solute.  The additoin of energy also shifts the equilibrium of the reation to the right since it takes energy to dissolve most things and you are adding more of it (this is explained with Le Chatlier principles).

I hope this helps and also I assumed that your question involved the solubility of an ionic substance in a solvent like water.  If that was not your question feel free to say so in the comments so that I can answer your actually question.

What is the density of a solid that has a mass of 9.2 grams and a volume of 12.3 cm3 ? Would this object float or sink in water?
cluponka [151]
  • Mass=9.2g
  • Volume=12.3

\boxed{\sf Density=\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Density=\dfrac{9.2}{12.3}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Density=0.74g/cm^3

  • Density of water =1g/cm^3

It will float in water

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The statement ; Regardless of any concentration of ammonium solution the precipitate of unknown halide after 0.1M AgNO3 will remain is FALSE

This is Because the remaining concentration of AgNO3 is dependent on the solubility of Ag⁺
