What common characteristic is generally shared by the elements at the center of a period?
Gnom [1K]
I think the correct answer would be C. The common characteristic that is shareed by the elements found at the center of a period would be that they are the least reactive species. Having lower value of electronegativity, there is less ionization of the atoms which would also contribute to less reactivity.

Which type of reaction is the Haber process: N2(g) + 3 H2(g) → 2 NH3(g) + heat? *
Alik [6]

Answer:

exothermic, with a decrease in entropy

Explanation:

Whenever you produce heat as a product in a reaction, the reaction is exothermic. To determine entropy, we know we have 4 moles of gas on reactant (1 from N2 and 3 from H2) and in produce side we only have two moles (2 from NH3) thus since we are decreasing the number of gas molecules, there is going to be less disorder, hence decrease in entropy.
