Answer:

sulfur

Explanation:

In oxygen family sulfur has yellow color and also having stinky smell. Thus given statements are about sulfur.

It is present in oxygen family.

It has six valance electrons.

Its atomic number is 16.

Its atomic weight is 32 amu.

The electronic configuration of sulfur is given below,

S₁₆ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴

We can see the valance shell is third shell and it have six electrons thus sulfur have six valance electrons. (3s² 3p⁴ )

Sulfur is used in vulcanisation process.

It is used in bleach and also as a preservative for many food.

it is used to making gun powder.

Can somebody help me with this also plz

ANSWER:

4 a) Specific elements have more than one oxidation state, demonstrating variable valency.

For example, the following transition metals demonstrate varied valence states: Fe^{2+}, Fe^{3+}, Cr^{2+}, Cr^{3+}, etc.

Normal metals such as Pb^{2+} and Pb^{4+} also show variable valencies. Certain non-metals are also found to show more than one valence state Pb^{3+} and Pb^{5+}.

4 b) Isotopes are members of a family of an element that all have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

For example, Carbon-14 is a naturally occurring radioactive isotope of carbon, having six protons and eight neutrons in the nucleus. However, C-14 does not last forever and there will come a time when it loses its extra neutrons and becomes Carbon-12.

5 a) 2Fe + 3Cl_2 → 2FeCl_3    

5 b) 3Pb + 8HNO_3 → 3Pb (NO_3)_2 + 4H_2O + 2NO_2

5 c) Zn + H_2SO_4 → ZnSO_4 + H_2   (already balanced so don't need to change)

5 d) 2H_2 + O_2 → 2H_2O

5 e) 2Mg + 2HCl → 2MgCl + H_2

EXPLANATION (IF NEEDED):

1. Write out how many atoms of each element is on the left (reactant side) and right (product side) of the arrow.

2. Start multiplying each side accordingly to try to get atoms of the elements on both sides equal.

What is the Ka of a 0.0796 M solution of nitrous acid (HNO2) with a pH of 2.95?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Coefficient = 1.58

Exponent = - 5

Explanation:

pH = 2.95

Molar concentration = 0.0796M

Ka = [H+]^2 / [HA]

Ka = [H+]^2 / 0.0796

Therefore ;

[H+] = 10^-2.95

[H+] = 0.0011220 = 1.122 × 10^-3

Ka = [H+] / molar concentration

Ka = [1.122 × 10^-3]^2 / 0.0796

Ka = (1.258884 × 10^-6) / 0.0796

Ka = 15.815 × 10^-6

Ka = 1.58 × 10^-5

Coefficient = 1.58

Exponent = - 5

10. You demonstrated the difference in density of the two objects. It is a physical property.

11. First calculate the density for all of them: density = mass/volume

Density:

A. 5/6 g/ml

B. 10/9 g/ml

C. 15/16 g/ml

D. 20/10 g/ml

If the density of the substance is higher than the density of the substance it is put in, then it will sink. So substances B and D will sink in water, as their densities are higher than 1 g/ml.

12. Ammonia weighs less than water does-- for example, the weight of 8 gallons of ammonia will be equivalent to the weight of 5 gallons of water.

Hope this helped!
