In 1803AD, Osmium was discovered by Smithson Tennant when dissolving an impure sample of platinum in aqua regia, a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acids. He was able to determine that the black powder left behind after dissolving the platinum was actually a mixture of two new elements, indium and osmium.
•Osmium is a bluish-white and shiny metal.
•Osmium is very hard and is brittle even at very high temperatures.
•Osmium has the lowast vapor pressure and the highest melting point among the platinum group of metals.
•Osmium's density is slightly more than iridium hence is credited as the heaviest element.
Answer:
H2SO4 ( Sulfuric Acid ) + NaOH ( Sodium Hydroxide ) > Na2SO4 ( Sodium Sulfate ) + H2O ( Water )
Explanation:
Answer:
Ionic bonds are formed through the exchange of valence electrons between atoms, typically a metal and a nonmetal. The loss or gain of valence electrons allows ions to obey the octet rule and become more stable. Therefore, ions combine in ways that neutralize their charges.
Explanation:
The element should be placed in the column for metalloids. Option A
<h3>What is the property of metals?</h3>
We know that the properties of metals can be used to identify an unknown substances as a metal. We know that metals are able to react with acids to liberate the metal salt and hydrogen gas. Metals do not react with bases because they can not accept electrons.
Metalloids are generally amphoteric in nature. They can react with both the acid and the basses to form compounds. The nonmetals do not react with acid or base.
Looking at the result, we are told that the entry in the second row have the entries nothing, nothing, nothing. If this is the outcome, then it follows that the element should be placed in the column for metalloids.
