Answer:

(b) Both have the same number of valence electrons.  

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the most striking chemical similarities between two Main Group elements when they are in the same Group of the Periodic Table.

Elements in the same Group have the same number of valence electrons.

(a) is <em>wrong</em>, because elements in the same group have <em>different masses</em>.

(c) is <em>wrong,</em> because atoms with the same number of protons belong to the s<em>ame element</em>.

(d) is wrong, because elements in the same Group must be in . <em>different Periods.</em>

To what volume should you dilute 55 mL of 12 M stock HNO3 solution to obtain a 0.145 HNO3 solution?
velikii [3]

Answer:

4552 mL

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of stock solution (V₁) = 55 mL

Molarity of stock solution (M₁) = 12 M

Molarity of diluted solution (M₂) = 0.145 M

Volume of diluted solution (V₂) =?

The volume of the diluted solution can be obtained by using the dilution formula as illustrated below:

M₁V₁ = M₂V₂

12 × 55 = 0.145 × V₂

660 = 0.145 × V₂

Divide both side by 0.145

V₂ = 660 / 0.145

V₂ ≈ 4552 mL

Thus, the volume of the diluted solution is 4552 mL

2.714 mole of helium has a mass of ______ grams.<br><br> (Enter just the number for this one.)
kifflom [539]

Hello!

To find the mass of helium, we need to multiply the total moles by the mass of helium. We are given 2.714 moles of helium, and the mass of helium is about 4.00 grams. Now, we multiply the two values together to get the grams.

2.714 moles x 4.00 grams = 10.856 grams

According to the number of significant figures, 2.714 moles of helium has a mass of 10.9 grams (exact value: 10.856 grams).

A 0.187 M weak acid solution has a pH of 3.99. Find Ka for the acid. Express your answer using two significant figures.
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

5.56 × 10⁻⁸

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Concentration of the weak acid (Ca): 0.187 M
  • pH of the solution: 3.99

Step 2: Calculate the concentration of H⁺

We will use the following expression.

pH = -log [H⁺]

[H⁺] = antilog -pH = antilog -3.99 = 1.02 × 10⁻⁴ M

Step 3: Calculate the acid dissociation constant (Ka)

We will use the following expression.

Ka = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2} }{Ca} = \frac{(1.02 \times 10^{-4})^{2} }{0.187} = 5.56 \times 10^{-8}
