Hydrogen is a nonmetal and is placed above group in the periodic table because it has ns1 electron configuration like the alkali metals. However, it varies greatly from the alkali metals as it forms cations (H+) more reluctantly than the other alkali metals.Aug 15, 2020
Electronic Configuration: 1s
At Room Temperature: Colorless & Odorless Diatomic Gas
Atomic Weight: 1.0079
Pb + Mg(NO₃)₂ → Pb(NO₃)₂ + Mg
This reaction would NOT occur because Pb is less reactive than Mg and as such Pb cannot displace the Mg in order for the reaction to occur under normal conditions.
Mg + Fe(NO₃)₂ → Fe + Mg(NO₃)₂
This reaction would occur. This is because Mg is more reactive than Fe and as such can displace it in the reaction, thus allowing the reaction to occur under normal conditions.
Cu + Mg(NO₃)₂ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + Mg
This reaction would NOT occur. Mg is more reactive than Cu, and as such copper cannot displace magnesium in order for the reaction to occur under normal conditions.
The molecular mass of carbon monoxide (CO) is 28 g/mol
<u><em>calculation</em></u>
The molecular mass of CO = atomic mass of C + atomic mass of O
From periodic table the atomic mass of C = 12 g/mol and for O = 16 g/mol
Therefore the molecular mass of Co = 12 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 28 g/mol
