Answer:

Because of its ability to create cations, hydrogen is a nonmetal that belongs to the same category as metals. Despite its presence in Group I (alkali metals) of the periodic table, hydrogen is not considered a metal.

Hydrogen is categorized as a nonmetal. This is due to the fact that it behaves like a non-metal.

When considering metal complexation with EDTA, if you are comparing 2 metals, the metal with a higher ____________ will react wi
DENIUS [597]

If you are comparing 2 metals, the metal with a higher <u>Number of free ions</u> will react with EDTA first

<h3>What is EDTA ?</h3>

EDTA is a type of chemical which binds certain metal ions such as calcium and magnesium. some of the functions of EDTA  includes:

  • Preventing blood clotting of blood samples
  • prevention of the formation of Biofilm by bacterias

The EDTA will readily react with metals which have a hiogher number of free ions that it can bind with.

Hence we can conclude that If you are comparing 2 metals, the metal with a higher <u>Number of free ions</u> will react with EDTA first.

They have an infinite number of significant figures.

For example : 12 eggs in a dozen, 1000 g in a kilogram and 2.54 cm in an inch.

Now we have to determine the following numbers count as exact numbers.

(1) Density : 3.7 g/mL

Density do not count as exact number.

(2) Volume : 1000 mL/L

Volume count as exact number.

(3) Length : 2.54 cm/in

Length count as exact number.

(4) Speed : 65.2 km/hr

Speed do not count as exact number.
