Answer:
The first element in the periodic table is hydrogen.
Explanation:
Hydrogen has an atomic number of one, making it the first element of the periodic table. The atomic number of an element is just the number of protons in the nucleus, so hydrogen has one proton. The neutrons and electrons do not affect the atomic number. After hydrogen with one proton comes helium with two, lithium with three, beryllium with four, and so on.
Answer:
2PO₄³⁻ + 3Fe²⁺ → Fe₃(PO₄)₂(s)
Explanation:
In a net ionic equation you list <em>only the ions that are participating in the reaction. </em>
When potassium phosphate, K₃PO₄, reacts with iron (II) nitrate, Fe(NO₃)₂ producing iron (II) phosphate, Fe₃(PO₄)₂ that is an insoluble salt. The reaction is:
2K₃PO₄ + 3 Fe(NO₃)₂ → Fe₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6NO₃⁻ + 6K⁺
The ionic equation is:
6K⁺ + 2PO₄³⁻ + 3Fe²⁺ + 6NO₃⁻→ Fe₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6NO₃⁻ + 6K⁺
Subtracting the K⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions that are not participating in the reaction, the net ionic equation is:
<h3>2PO₄³⁻ + 3Fe²⁺ → Fe₃(PO₄)₂(s)</h3>
Answer:
An element
It stays shiny
Explanation:
Pure Gold is an element.
An element is a distinct substance that cannot be split-up into simpler substances. Such substances consists of only one kind of atom.
There are over a hundred elements known to date.
As an element, Gold is classified as a metal due to its very unique set of properties.
One of the indicator that gold does not react with oxygen is that it stays shiny. It does not give rusty look when exposed to air.
Substances that combines with oxygen have a rusty look or change appearance when expose to air. For example, iron.
