Which element is more metallic among beriliyum or calcium? Give reason

1 answer:

3 0

Both elements are in the same group but valence electrons of calcium are further away from the nucleus. They are not strongly held by the nucleus, hence are readily released. And readily released electrons means higher reactivity. Easy on the alkaline earth metals.

I hope this helps!

Expliquen como prepararian una solucion homogenea y heterogenea

muminat

Una mezcla homogenea es una mezcla solida, liquida o gaseosa que tiene las mismas proporciones de sus componentes en cualquier muestra dada. A la inversa, una mezcla heterogenea tiene componentes cuyas proporciones varian a lo largo de la muestra. "Homogeneo" y "heterogeneo" no son terminos absolutos sino que dependen del contexto y del tamano de la muestra. En quimica, una suspension homogenea de material significa que cuando se divide el volumen a la mitad, la misma cantidad de material se suspende en ambas mitades de la sustancia; sin embargo, podria ser posible ver las particulas bajo un microscopio. Un ejemplo de una mezcla homogenea es el aire.

If the a of a monoprotic weak acid is 1. 2×10^−6. What is the [H] of a 0. 31 m solution of this acid?

Vanyuwa [196]

The pH of the solution of the given acid is 3.099

Let HX be the weak acid:

HX ⇌ $H^{+}$ + $X^{-}$

For which:

$K_{a}$ = [ $H^{+}$ ][ $X^{-}$ ] / [HX]

If $K_{a}$ lies in the range $10^{-4} - 10^{-10}$ we can assume that the equilibrium concentrations used in the expression are a good enough approximation to the initial concentrations.
