Answer:
- <u><em>Ratio of the mass carbon that combines with 1.00 g of oxygen in compound 2 to the mass of carbon that combines with 1.00 g of oxygen in compound 1 = 2</em></u>
Explanation:
First, detemine the mass of oxygen in the two samples by difference:
- mass of oxygen = mass of sample - mass of carbon
Item Compound 1 Compound 2
Sample 80.0 g 80.0 g
Carbon 21.8 g 34.3 g
Oxygen: 80.0 g - 21.8g = 58.2 g 80.0 g - 34.3 g = 45.7 g
Second, determine the ratios of the masses of carbon that combine with 1.00 g of oxygen:
- For each sample, divide the mass of carbon by the mass of oxygen determined above:
Sample Mass of carbon that combines with 1.00 g of oxygen
Compound 1 21.8 g / 58.2 g = 0.375
Compound 2 34.3 g / 45.7 g = 0.751
Third, determine the ratio of the masses of carbon between the two compounds.
- Divide the greater number by the smaller number:
- Ratio = 0.751 / 0.375 = 2.00 which in whole numbers is 2
Answer:
The order of reactivity of metals is as follows, Potassium > Sodium > Lithium > Calcium > Magnesium > Aluminium > Zinc > Iron > Copper > Silver > Gold.
Explanation:
The reactivity of elements (metals) towards water decreases towards the right in a period. It also increases down the group. But zinc is more reactive towards water than iron. Hence the correct order is:
Iron<Zinc<Magnesium<Sodium
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
- Hydrogen either reacts with or is formed by reactions with many other elements, so chemists could use it directly to determine their relative masses.
- Hydrogen has the smallest atomic mass, so it was convenient to give H a relative atomic mass of 1 and assign those of other elements as multiples of this number.
The O = 16 scale became the standard in 1903 and carbon-12 was chosen in 1961.
Answer:
to become a noble gas element P will have 2 electrons in it's outer most energy level if it has one energy level
and eight in the last energy level if more than one
