Answer:
a number assigned to an element in chemical combination which represents the number of electrons lost (or gained, if the number is negative), by an atom of that element in the compound
Explanation:
sodium, magnesium, iron is zero.
The metal is aluminium
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Heat, q = 4680 J
Mass, m = 100g = 0.1kg
ΔT = 52°C
sample = ?
We know:
q = mcΔT
On substituting the value we get:
Thus, the metal is aluminium which has a specific heat capacity of 900 J/kg°C
Answer:
Elements that are in the same period have chemical properties that are not all that similar. Consider the first two members of period 3: sodium (Na) and magnesium (Mg). In reactions, they both tend to lose electrons (after all, they are metals), but sodium loses one electron, while magnesium loses two.
Explanation:
(Hoped this helped! :D)
Answer:
This is because, the is less chance of trapping impurities in the developing crystal lattice
