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.

What mass of aluminum is produced by the decomposition of 5.0 kg al2o3?
Nina [5.8K]
The  mass for  of aluminum that is produced  by  the decomposition  of  5.0 Kg Al2O3 is 2647 g or 2.647  Kg

          calculation
  Write  the equation for decomposition  of Al2O3

Al2O3 = 2Al  + 3 O2

find the  moles  of  Al2O3 =  mass/molar mass

convert  5 Kg  to g   = 5 x1000 = 5000 grams
molar mass of  Al2O3 =  27 x2 + 16 x3  = 102 g/mol

 moles =5000 g/  102 g/mol = 49.0196 moles

by use  of mole ratio between Al2O3 to  Al  which is 1:2  the moles of Al = 49.0196 x2 =98.0392  moles


mass of  Al = moles x molar  mass

= 98.0392 moles x  27g/mol = 2647  grams  or 2647/1000 = 2.647 Kg

stealth61 [152]

According to markovnikov's rule of the electrophilic addition to an alkene, the electrophile, usually a proton, is more likely to add to the less-substituted carbon in a double bond.

With additional substituents present in this configuration, the intermediate carbocation is stabilised by being located on the more-substituted carbon.

The nucleophile will then end up in a double bond on the more-substituted carbon in a reaction that follows Markovnikov's rule.The outcome of some addition reactions is described by Markovnikov's rule or Markownikoff's rule in organic chemistry. Vladimir Markovnikov, a Russian scientist, created the rule in 1870.
