Answer: On heating, Magnesium forms its oxide; while potassium manganate(VII) decomposes

Explanation:

Magnesium Mg, on heating forms Magnesium oxide

2Mg(s) + O2(g) --> 2MgO

Potassium permanganate KMnO4, on heating decomposes to potassium manganate K2MnO4, manganese dioxide MnO2, and Oxygen gas O2.

2KMnO4 --> K2MnO4 + MnO2 + O2

The difference in observation is that, on heating, Magnesium forms its OXIDE as product; while potassium manganate(VII) decomposes, giving OFF most of its constituents and reducing its weight.

Identify each pair of elements as likely to participate in ionic bonding when bonded together. Use your periodic table.
alekssr [168]

Answer:

1) NaCl, 5)MgS

Explanation:

What makes something an Ionic Bond:

  • Ionic bonds are generally between two oppositely charged ions. Usually salts are formed.
  • A metal and nonmetal are also generally considered to be ionic.
  • Electronegativity also plays a role in a difference of electronegativity of elements being greater than 2.0.

For 1) Na has a charge of 1+ and Cl has a charge of 1-. They both come together to form table salt. Their electronegativity is also larger than 2.0. Also Na is a metal and Cl ion is a nonmetal.

For 2) C and O are both nonmetals and are covalent bonds

For 3) Water is a polar covalent molecule because there is a electronegativity difference between H and O, but not great. H and O are also nonmetals.

For 4) While Fe is a metal and O is a nonmetal, their electronegativity difference is not greater than 2.0. This makes it polar covalent.

For 5) Mg is a metal and S is a nonmetal. They have a large electronegativity difference. Also Mg has a charge of 2+ while S has a charge of 2-.

Uranium is used in nuclear reactors and is a rare element on earth. Uranium has three common isotopes. If the abundance of 234U
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Average atomic mass of uranium= 237.98 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Abundance of U²³⁴ = 0.01%

Abundance of U²³⁵ = 0.17%

Abundance of U²³⁸ = 99.28%

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass of uranium = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 3rd isotope × its atomic mass) / 100

Average atomic mass of uranium= (234×0.01)+(235×0.71)+(238×99.28)/100

Average atomic mass of uranium=  2.34 + 166.85 + 23628.64 / 100

Average atomic mass of uranium= 23797.83 / 100

Average atomic mass of uranium= 237.98 amu.
