A student has a balloon that looks shiny like a metal and wants to perform an experiment to determine if it contains any metal.

Which of the following procedures could possibly determine if the balloon contains metal? Charge the balloon, hold it near an electroscope, and determine if the electroscope leaves move. Charge the balloon, hold it near an electroscope, and determine if the electroscope leaves move.
A. Charge the balloon, hold it near small pieces of paper, and see if it picks up any of the paper. Charge the balloon, hold it near small pieces of paper, and see if it picks up any of the paper.
B. Hold a positively charged rod near the uncharged balloon, then hold a negatively charged rod near the uncharged balloon, and observe whether the balloon acquires a net charge. Hold a positively charged rod near the uncharged balloon, then hold a negatively charged rod near the uncharged balloon, and observe whether the balloon acquires a net charge.
C. Hold a positively charged rod near the uncharged balloon, then hold a negatively charged rod near the uncharged balloon, and observe whether the balloon is attracted or repelled by the rods.

Answer:

Charge the balloon, hold it near an electroscope, and determine if the electroscope leaves move.

Explanation:

The gold leaf electroscope is an instrument used to detect if a body is charged. It has two gold leafs suspended from a brass stem in a vacuumed glass jar and connected to a metal cap(Toppr).

When the test body is allowed to touch the metal cap, a change in the size of the leaves shows whether the body is charged or not.

Since we are suspecting the balloon to be made up of a metal; metals can be charged. We can test if there is really a charge on the balloon by bringing it near an electroscope to see if the electroscope moves.

3. A 0.025L solution of HCl is neutralized by 0.018L of a 1.0 M NaOH solution. What is the concentration of the HCl solution?​
Nookie1986 [14]

The concentration of the HCl solution is 0.72 M.

<h3>How do we calculate the concentration?</h3>

Concentration of the required solution by the use of the known concentration solution will be determine by using the below equation as:

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂, where

  • M₁ & V₁ are the molarity and volume of the HCl solution.
  • M₂ & V₂ are the molarity and volume of the NaOH solution.

On putting values in the above equation, we get

M₁ = (1)(0.018) / (0.025) = 0.72 M

Hence required concentration of HCl is 0.72M.

What orbital is represented by the transition metals in period four
andreev551 [17]

The name transition metal refers to the position in the periodic table of elements. The transition elements represent the successive addition of electrons to the d atomic orbitals of the atoms. In this way, the transition metals represent the transition between group 2 (2A) elements and group 13 (3A) elements.
