4.How element gold is different from oxygen?

Chemistry
1 answer:
V125BC [204]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Gold is a metal, more specifically a transition metal, whereas Oxygen is a nonmetal, more specifically a reactive nonmetal. Using this information, you can compare and contrast metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.

Metals are:

Shiny

High melting point

Mostly silver or gray in color

Mostly solids at room temperature – Mercury (Hg) is a liquid at room temperature

Malleable – able to be hammered into a thin sheet

Ductile – able to be drawn/pulled into a wire

Good conductors of heat and electricity

Nonmetals are:

Dull

Low melting point

Brittle – break easily

Not malleable

Not ductile

Poor conductors of heat and electricity

Metalloids are:

Found on the “zig-zag” line on the Periodic Table of Elements

Have properties of both metals and nonmetals

Can be shiny or dull

Semiconductors – able to conduct electricity under certain conditions

Pharmacists sometimes measure medicines in the unit of "grains," where 1 gr = 65 mg. The label on a bottle of aspirin reads "Asp
viva [34]

Answer:

325mg of Aspririn

Explanation:

First you should note the information that the problem gives you:

- The bottle of Aspirin has 5gr (grains)

- 1gr(grain) = 65mg (miligrams)

Also, the problem is asking about how many aspirin are in 5 gr (grains), so you should use a conversion factor, as follows:

-First you should put the quantity you need to convert:

5grAspirin

-Then you write the denominator of the conversion factor that must have the same units that you want to convert, in this case gr:

5grAspirin*\frac{}{1grAspirin}

-Then you write the numerator with the units that you want to obtain and the numerical equivalence between the units, in this case:

5grAspirin*\frac{65mgAspririn}{1grAspirin}

-Finally you multiply numerators and divide by denominators:

5grAspirin*\frac{65mgAspririn}{1grAspirin}=325mgAspririn

Which scientist discovered that the atomic number, rather than the atomic weight, is more responsible for the properties of an e
myrzilka [38]

<em>Answer:</em>

  • The correct option is Moseley who has discovered the atomic number.

<em>Explanation:</em>

  • In 1913, H. Moseley discovered a new properties of an element atomic number. He observed that elements in the periodic table can be arranged better according to atomic number rather than atomic mass.
  • The atomic number of any elements is always equal to numbers of electrons in it.

Which of the following would you except to see in the death of a star that is less than 0.5 solar mass
Ket [755]

B. White Dwarf.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The star would eventually run out of hydrogen fuel in the core. The core would shrink and heats up. As the temperature in the core increases, some of the helium in the core will undergo the triple-alpha process to produce elements such as Be, C, and O. The triple-alpha process will heat the outer layers of the star and blow them away from the core. This process will take a long time. Meanwhile, a planetary nebula will form.

As the outer layers of gas leave the core and cool down, they become no longer visible. The only thing left is the core of the star. Consider the Chandrasekhar Limit:

Chandrasekhar Limit: 1.4 \;M_\odot.

A star with core mass smaller than the Chandrasekhar Limit will not overcome electron degeneracy and end up as a white dwarf. Most of the outer layer of the star in question here will be blown away already. The core mass of this star will be only a fraction of its 0.5 \;M_\odot, which is much smaller than the Chandrasekhar Limit.

As the star completes the triple alpha process, its core continues to get smaller. Eventually, atoms will get so close that electrons from two nearby atoms will almost run into each other. By Pauli Exclusion Principle, that's not going to happen. Electron degeneracy will exert a strong outward force on the core. It would balance the inward gravitational pull and prevent the star from collapsing any further. The star will not go any smaller. Still, it will gain in temperature and glow on the blue end of the spectrum. It will end up as a white dwarf.
