Looking at the Periodic Table, how can you determine if an element is a metal, metalloid or nonmetal?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Digiron [165]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It depends on where it's located on the periodic table.

Explanation:

Metals are on left side of the periodic table except Hydrogen (H), which is a nonmetal, then there's the staircase, which has the metalloids, and on the right of the staircase are the nonmetals.

What are the effects on the bodies of water? use terms algal bloom, dead zone and hypotoxic
Anna35 [415]

Water pollution is defined as the mixing of water with unwanted substances and that makes water unsafe.

Water pollution includes runoff of excess fertilizers,

herbicides, and insecticides from agricultural lands

and residential areas; oil, grease, and toxic chemicals

from urban runoff and energy production; and

sediment from improperly managed construction sites,

crop and forest lands, and eroding stream banks.

Polluted waters have high BOD which affects aquatic biodiversity.

Hpotoxic substances such as lead, arsenic, and fluoride cause many problems to aquatic animals and humans. Water contaminated with Arsenic results in diseases such as arsenicosis. Fluoride had been reported to cause depression in DNA and RNA synthesis in cultured cells, significant reductions in DNA and RNA levels, and conditions including aging, cancer, and arteriosclerosis are associated with DNA damage and its disrepair. Lead causes problems related to the central nervous system. Children and pregnant women are most at risk. Routine applications of fertilizers and pesticides for agriculture and uncontrolled runoff in water bodies. Adds nitrogen and phosphorus to water. It adds nitrogen and phosphorus to water causing eutrophication and algal blooms.

Therefore, all these activities make our water bodies a death zone for the marine ecosystem as well as humans.

A molecule of pentane is made of 5 carbon atoms and 12 hydrogen atoms. a collection of pentane molecules has 3.01 x 1024 carbon
Novay_Z [31]

3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (12/5) hydrogen atoms  
Looking at the formula for the molecule, the ratio of carbon to hydrogen atoms is 5:12, so if we divide the number of carbon atoms by 5 and then multiply by 12, we can find the number of hydrogen atoms. Let's look at the available options and see what makes sense.  
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (12/5) hydrogen atoms 
* This is exactly correct.  
(3.01 Ă— 10^24 / 5) hydrogen atoms 
* Nope. This will tell you how many pentane MOLECULES you have, but not the number of hydrogen atoms.  
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— (5/12) hydrogen atoms 
* Close, but the ratio (5/12) will tell you the number of carbon atoms you have if you give it the number of hydrogen atoms. So this choice is wrong.  
3.01 Ă— 10^24 Ă— 12 hydrogen atoms description 
* This would tell you the number of hydrogen atoms you have if you know the number of pentane molecules you have. So this choice is also wrong.

For the titration of 25.00 mL of 0.150 M HCl with 0.250 M NaOH, calculate:
Leviafan [203]
1) Chemical reaction

HCl        +       NaOH      --->      NaCl + H2O

25.0 ml            
0.150 M            0.250M

2) 50% completion => 0.025 l * 0.150 M * (1/2) = 0.001875 mol HCl consumed and 0.001875 mol HCl in solution

0.001875 mol HCl => 0.001875 mol H(+)

Volume = Volume of HCl solution + Volumen of NaOH solution added

Volume of HCl solution = 0.0250 l

Volume of NaOH = n / M = 0.001875 mol / 0.250M = 0.0075 l

Total volume = 0.0250 l + 0.0075 l = 0.0325 l

[H+] = 0.001875 mol / 0.0325 l = 0.05769 M

pH = - log [H+] = - log (0.05769) = 1.23

Answer: 1.23

3) Equivalence point

0.02500 l * 0.150 M = 0.250M * V

=> V = 0.02500 * 0.150 / 0.250 = 0.015 l

4) 1.00 ml NaOH added beyond the equivalence point

1.00 ml * 1 l / 1000 ml * 0.250 M = 0.00025 mol NaOH in excess

0.00025 mol NaOH = 0.00025 mol OH-

Volume of the solution = 0.02500 l + 0.015 l + 1.00/1000 l = 0.041 l

[OH-] = 0.00025 mol / 0.041 l = 0.00610 M

pOH = - log (0.00610) = 2.21

pH + pOH = 14 => pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 2.21 = 11.76

Answer: 11.76

Consider the reaction between acetylene, c2h2, and oxygen in a welding torch: 2c2h2(g) + 5o2(g) → 4co2(g) + 2h2o(g) if 5.4 moles
fredd [130]
<span>                                      2C2H2(g) + 5O2(g) → 4CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)
   from the reaction     2 mol                              4 mol
from the problem      5.4 mol                         10.8 mol

M(CO2) = 12.0 +2*16.0 = 44.0 g/mol
10.8 mol CO2 * 44.0 g CO2/1 mol CO2 = 475.2 g CO2 </span>≈480 = 4.8 * 10² g
Answer is  C. 4.8*10² g.
