Answer:   Iodine

Explanation:  Cesium is the alkali metal which belongs to the group 1 of the periodic table.

Iodine is the Group 17 element which are known as the Halogens as they are the group of the most electronegative atoms.

Zinc belongs to the Transition metal d block .

Xenon belongs to the Group 18 of noble gases.

The electronic configuration will help us to determine which can gain electron to have a full outermost shell.

Cesium (Cs) = [Xe] 6s1

Zinc (Zn) = [Ar] 3d10 4s2

Iodine(I) =  [Kr] 4d10 5s2 5p5

Xenon (Xe) = Kr 4d10 5s2 5p6

Thus Iodine can easily gain one electron to have complete outermost shell.

Iodine has 7 valence electrons. It needs therefore only 1 electron to be stable this is why it is so reactive.

Which section of a lab report would most appropriately contain the possible sources of error in an experiment?
Vlad1618 [11]

The lab report contains the theory, process, data and calculation of the experiment. The theory and process are remains fixed for a particular experiment. Thus there is no chance to get error from these two part. The calculation depends upon the reading or data of the experiment. The calculation is also unique and based on the data. Thus the error come from the data of the experiment. As for example for a titration experiment the data recorded in the process from the burret is the source of error, on which the calculation depends.

How many grams are in 2.3 x 10^ -4 moles of calcium phosphate? ​
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Mass = 713.4 ×10⁻⁴ g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of calcium phosphate = 2.3×10⁻⁴ mol

Mass of calcium phosphate = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of calcium phosphate is 310.18 g/mol

by putting values,

2.3×10⁻⁴ mol = mass / 310.18 g/mol

Mass = 2.3×10⁻⁴ mol × 310.18 g/mol

Mass = 713.4 ×10⁻⁴ g
