The elements of same group are placed in same group as they have similar properties. So Calcium is the element which resembles Mangesium.
Calcium and Magnesium both are alkaline earth metals.
They have similar properties as they have similar outer or valence shell electronic configuration
The general electronic configuration of alkaline earht metal is ns2
The electronic configuration of Mg [atomic number 12] and Ca [atomic number 20] are
![[Ne]3s^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E%7B2%7D)
and ![[Ar]4s^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BAr%5D4s%5E%7B2%7D)
respectively.
In the question, we are told that there are;
- A loaf containing 33 slices
- A loaf containing 33 slices A package of cheese containing 15 slices
We also know that he is making a sandwich that has 2 pieces of both cheese and bread.
Hence;
Total number of bread and cheese = 33 + 15.
Each loaf should have two pieces of each bread and the cheeses make a total of four pieces.
Therefore he can make = 33 + 15/4 = 12 sandwiches.
Answer:
12.0108408
Explanation:
Denote the element with a letter like say X. Since it has a subscript of 5, then, X5.
Molecular mass=102.133g/mol.
% of X in compound =58.8/100
=0.588
Mass of X in the compound = 0.588*102.133 ( the % of X in compound * molar mass of compound)
= 60.054204
X5=60.054204
Then element X has a mass of 60.054204/5=12.0108408
Uhh add a picture so I can help
