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.

How many joules of energy do you have if you have 0.45 L of water in a can and you heat the 23C water to 55C site:socratic.org
Bess [88]

Answer:

Q = 60192 j

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water = 0.45 L

Initial temperature = 23°C

Final temperature = 55°C

Amount of heat absorbed = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT =  55°C - 23°C

ΔT = 32°C

one L = 1000 g

0.45 × 1000 = 450 g

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 j/g°C

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 450 g.  4.18 j/g°C.  32°C

Q = 60192 j

Yet a third pair of compounds of manganese and oxygen is 50.48% and 36.81% oxygen respectively. In what small whole number ratio
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The number ratio is 4:7

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Compound 1 has 50.48 % oxygen

Compound 2 has 36.81 % oxygen

Molar mass oxygen = 16 g/mol

Molar mass manganese = 54.94 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate % manganes

Compound 1: 100 - 50.48 = 49.52 %

Compound 2: 100 - 36.81 = 63.19 %

Step 3: Calculate mass

Suppose mass of compounds = 100 grams

Compound 1:

 50.48 % O = 50.48 grams

 49.52 % Mn = 49.52 grams

Compound 2:

36.81 % O = 36.81 grams

63.19 % Mn = 63.19 grams

Step 4: Calculate moles

Compound 1

Moles O = 50.48 grams / 16.0 g/mol = 3.155 moles

Moles Mn = 49.52 grams / 54.94 g/mol = 0.9013 moles

Compound 2

Moles O = 36.81 grams / 16.0 g/mol = 2.301 moles

Moles Mn = 63.19 grams / 54.94 g/mol = 1.150 moles

Step 5: calculate mol ratio

We will divide by the smallest amount of moles

Compound 1

O: 3.155/0.9013 = 3.5

Mn: 0.9013 / 0.9013 = 1

Mn2O7

Compound 2

O: 2.301 / 1.150 = 2

Mn: 1.150 / 1.150 = 1

MnO2

The number ratio is 2:3.5 or 4:7
