Since chromium has 24 as its atomic number (which mean that it has 24 proton and 24 electron in neutral ground state), the electron configuration for the chromium would be :
1s^2 , 2s^2 , 2p^6 , 3s^2, 3p^6 , 3d^5 , 4s^1
Metals are located on the left of the periodic table, and nonmetals are located on the upper right.
Explanation: Metals: Lustrous (shiny)
Good conductors of heat and electricity.
High melting point.
High density (heavy for their size)
Malleable (can be hammered)
Ductile (can be drawn into wires)
Usually solid at room temperature (an exception is mercury)
Opaque as a thin sheet (can't see through metals)
Nonmetals: High ionization energies.
High electronegativities.
Poor thermal conductors.
Poor electrical conductors.
Brittle solids—not malleable or ductile.
Little or no metallic luster.
Gain electrons easily.
Dull, not metallic-shiny, although they may be colorful
Carbohydrates called starches
Answer:
Zn + 2HCl —> ZnCl2 + H2
Explanation:
This is a displacement reaction, in which Zn displaces H2 from acid. The equation for the reaction is given below:
Zn + 2HCl —> ZnCl2 + H2
