Environmental Chemistry studies the health hazards associated with lead, which  is dangerous to humans.

Environmental Chemistry studies chemicals present in air, water and soil and their  impact on humans and their environment.

Now, it was discovered that even low doses of lead particles in the paint when inhaled or ingested caused damaging effect to the body  such as Impaired balance, seizures, ataxia and even death.

With the role of Environmental chemists in thier research and findings, the world has been informed on the negative effect on the expose of lead and other heavy metals like it  to man and his environment.

A new element (solid at room temperature) is discovered that has:
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

A metalloid is a substance that has both the qualities of a metal and a non metal. Metals conduct electricity and have a high melting point.The element described does not conduct electricity until temperatures are reduced therefore it is not a metal. The fact that conduction occurs when temperatures are reduced means that it is not a non metal because non metals do not conduct electricity at all. Therefore the element is a metaloid because it exhibits some properties of a metal and others of a non mental.

Compare the chemical reactivity of chlorine and bromine. Explain your answer. Thanks in advance
shepuryov [24]

Bromine vs Chlorine | Br vs Cl

 

Halogens are group VII elements in the periodic table, and all are electronegative elements and have the capability to produce -1 anions.

Bromine

Bromine is denoted by the symbol Br. This is in the 4th period of the periodic table between chlorine and iodine halogens. Its electronic configuration is [Ar] 4s2 3d10 4p5. The atomic number of bromine is 35. Its atomic mass is 79.904. Bromine staChlorine is an element in the periodic table which is denoted by Cl.  It is a halogen (17th group) in the 3rd period of the periodic table. The atomic number of chlorine is 17; thus, it has seventeen protons and seventeen electrons. Its electron configuration is written as 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5. Since the p sub level should have 6 electrons to obtain the Argon, noble gas electron configuration, chlorine has the ability to attract an electron. ys as a red-brown color liquid at room temperature.

A chemical reaction that has a positive δg is correctly described as
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Endergonic reaction or nonspontaneous reaction.

Explanation:

Gibbs free energy is a state function that determines the spontaneity or feasibility of the given reversible chemical reaction, at fixed pressure and temperature. It is given by the equation:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Here, ΔG - change in Gibbs free energy

ΔH- The change in enthalpy of reaction

ΔS - The change in entropy

T- Temperature

When the <u>change in the Gibbs free energy for a given reaction is positive</u> (ΔG > 0), then that chemical reaction is known as an endergonic reaction or nonspontaneous reaction.
