Which elements have the most similar chemical properties

Chemistry
1 answer:
gtnhenbr [62]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Elements that belong to the <em>same </em><em>GROUP</em><em> </em>of the periodic table have the most similar chemical properties.

Explanation:

A GROUP in the periodic table is a column of elements with the same number of valence electrons. Since electrons are exchanged/shared during a chemical reaction, then elements with similar valence electrons, will react similarly. Thus elements belonging to the <em>same GROUP</em> are most similar in the way they react.

For example: Sodium and Lithium are group 1 elements while fluorine and chlorine are group 17 elements. In a reaction under normal conditions, Sodium and Lithium will both try to give up their single valence electron to form cations. In doing so they will react more similarly. On the other hand, Fluorine and Chlorine who are more inclined to accept a single electron to form cations react less like the group 1 elements and more like each other.

What is one benefit associated with nuclear fission
Julli [10]
Nuclear fission share a number of advantages. These include less emission of greenhouse gases, relatively lower operating costs, this process is well understood. Also, since the population is rising, the demand is as well rising and with the aid of this process we can meet that high demand.

MnO2 + 4HCl reacts to form MnCl2 + CL2 + 2H2O If .86 mol of MnO2 and 48.2 g of HCl react, which reactant is the limiting reagent
Katen [24]
HCl:
<span>
m=48,2g
M=36,5g/mol

n = m/M = 48,2g / 36,5g/mol = 1,32mol

1mol          : 4mol
MnO</span>₂        + 4HCl ⇒ MnCl₂ + Cl₂ + 2H₂O
0,86mol     :  1,32mol
                     limiting reagent 
0,33 will react

HCl is limiting reagent.

Name the following compound: 2-ethyl-4-methylheptene 3,5-dimethyl-2-octene 2-ethyl-4-methylheptane 3-methyl-5-propyl-2-hexene
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

3,5-dimethyl-2-octene

Explanation:

The parent chain will be choosen based on the highest value. In this case, if we count from top to bottom, we'll get seven carbon, however if we count from the second carbon, going left and then down, we'll get eight carbon. So the parent chain is octene

The double bond is located at the second carbon and the methyl groups are located on carbon 3 & 5. Since there are two methyl groups, we add di- in front of methyl to indicate two methyl groups present.

Note: The functional group has to be prioritise and it needed to be a part of the parent chain. In this case, the functional group is the double bond. (alkene)

Calculate the final Celsius temperature when 634 L at 21 °C is compressed to 307 L.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

- 130.64°C.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas:<em> PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and P are constant, and have two different values of V and T:

<em>V₁T₂ = V₂T₁</em>

<em></em>

V₁ = 634.0 L, T₁ = 21.0°C + 273 = 294.0 K.

V₂ = 307.0 L, T₂ = ??? K.

<em>∴ T₂ = V₂T₁/V₁ </em>= (307.0 L)(294.0 K)/(634.0 L) = <em>142.36 K.</em>

<em>∴ T₂(°C) = 142.36 K - 273 = - 130.64°C.</em>
