Answer:

Group 4A (or IVA) of the periodic table includes the nonmetal carbon (C), the metalloids silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge), the metals tin (Sn) and lead (Pb), and the yet-unnamed artificially-produced element ununquadium (Uuq).

The Group 4A elements have four valence electrons in their highest-energy orbitals (ns2np2). Carbon and silicon can form ionic compounds by gaining four electrons, forming the carbide anion (C4-) and silicide anion (Si4-), but they more frequently form compounds through covalent bonding. Tin and lead can lose either their outermost p electrons to form 2+ charges (Sn2+, the stannous ion, and Pb2+, the plumbous ion) or their outermost s and p electrons to form 4+ charges (Sn4+, the stannic ion, and Pb4+, the plumbic ion).

Carbon (C, Z=6).

Carbon is most familiar as a black solid is graphite, coal, and charcoal, or as the hard, crystalline diamond form. The name is derived from the Latin word for charcoal, carbo. It is found in the Earth's crust at a concentration of 480 ppm, making it the 15th most abundant element. It is found in form of calcium carbonate, CaCO3, in minerals such as limestone, marble, and dolomite (a mixture of calcium and

A water treatment plant receives the source water with an average Ca2+ concentration of 46.9 mg/L and Mg2+ concentration of 14.8

Veronika [31]

Answer:

42,650 kg of calcium carbonate will be produced everyday.

13,600.5 kg of magnesium hydroxide will be produced everyday.

Explanation:

Concentration of calcium ions = 46.9 mg/L

Concentration of magnesium ions = 14.8 mg/L

Volume of solution treated everyday , V= 80 million gal

= $80\times 10^6 gal=4.546\times 80\time 10^6 L=3.637\times 10^8 L$

1 gallon = 4.546 Liter

Mass of calcium ion in V = $46.9 mg/L\times 3.637\times 10^8 L$

= $1.706\times 10^{10} mg$

1 mg = 0.001 g

$1.706\times 10^{7} g$

Moles of calcium ions = $\frac{1.706\times 10^{7} g}{40 g/mol}=426,500 mol$

From 1 mole of calcium ion 1mol of carbonate is formed . then from 426,500 moles of calcium ion will form :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 426,500 mol=426,500 mol$ of calcium carbonate

Mass of 426,500 moles of calcium carbonate:

426,500 mol × 100 g/mol = 42,650,000 g = 42,650 kg

Mass of magnesium ion in V = $14.8 mg/L\times 3.637\times 10^8 L$

= $5.382\times 10^{9} mg$

= $5.382\times 10^{6} g$

Moles of magnesium ions = $\frac{5.382\times 10^{6} g}{24 g/mol}=224,250 mol$

From 1 mole of magnesium ion 1 mol of magnesium hydroxide is formed . then from 224,250 moles of magnesium ion will form :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 224,250 mol=224,250 mol$ of magnesium hydroxide

Mass of 224,250 moles of magnesium hydroxide:

224,250 mol × 58 g/mol = 13,006,500 g = 13,006.5 kg

42,650 kg of calcium carbonate will be produced everyday.

13,600.5 kg of magnesium hydroxide will be produced everyday.

natulia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientists don't stop with the first step of their experiment because they want other scientists' opinions because they may not trust their own observations.

Scientists don't stop with the first step of their experiment because they would rather plan and run experiments than just observe the world around them

Which could be the catalyst in a chemical reaction?

AlekseyPX

Answer: C. enzyme

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and convert to products.

The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and is regenerated as such at the end.

Enzymes are proteins that reduce the activation energy of biological reaction. Enzymes increase the speed of a reaction and help it to run faster. Thus they are also called as bio catalysts.

Activated complex is the transition state which is very unstable and is formed during the course when reactants are converted to products.
