Why do elements in the same group have similar physical and chemical properties

Chemistry
1 answer:
Inessa [10]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Each element within a group has similar physical or chemical properties because of its atom's outermost electron shell (most chemical properties are dominated by the orbital location of the outermost electron).

Draw the lewis structure for butanal, which has the condensed formula ch3(ch2)2cho. show all hydrogen atoms and lone pairs of el
sergejj [24]

There are 10 hydrogen atoms that bind and there are 2 pairs of free electrons in the non-binding O atom

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Aldehydes are alkane-derived compounds containing carbonyl groups (-CO-) where one bond binds to an alkyl group while another binds to a hydrogen atom.

The general structure is R-CHO with the molecular formula :

\large{\boxed{\boxed{\bold{C_nH_{2n}O}}}

Naming is generally the same as the alkane by replacing the suffix with -al

Butanal or butyraldehyde is an aldehyde which has 4 C atoms

Inside the structure there are 3 atoms involved in bonding:

  • 1. Atom C with 4 valence electrons, requires 4 electrons to reach the octet
  • 2. Atom O with 6 valence electrons, requires 2 electrons to reach the octet
  • 3. Atom H with 1 valence electron, requires 1 electron to reach a duplet

In describing Lewis's structure the steps that can be taken are:

  •  1. Count the number of valence electrons from atoms in a molecule
  • 2. Give each bond a pair of electrons
  • 3. The remaining electrons are given to the atomic terminal so that an octet is reached
  • 4. The remaining electrons that still exist in the central atom
  • 5. If the central atom is not yet octet, free electrons are drawn to the central atom to form double bonds

In the Butanal structure (C₄H₈O) there is 1 double bond of the functional group (-CHO) between the C atom and the O atom

Why do group 7 elements have higher melting and boiling points going down?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

this is because the van der waals forces or also known as induced dipole-dipole interactions increase because more electrons are present within an atom as you go down

Examine the nuclear reaction: 1 1 H+ 1 0 n -&gt; 2 1 H.
Lera25 [3.4K]
1) Conversion of an isotope one chemical element or an isotope into another chemical element is called as nuclear transmutation.
<span>
2) In a nuclear transmutation reactions</span> can be achieved either due to radioactive decay or  due to nuclear reactions. 

3) In this technique, it is possible to convert a stable element into radioactive atom by bombarding in with high speed particles. The initial stable nuclei is referred as parent nuclei, the fast moving particle is referred as projectile while new element which is formed is called as daughter element.

4) In the present reaction:
                                        <span>1 1 H+ 1 0 n -> 2 1 H
1 1H is a parent nuclei which is bombarded with the fast moving projectile
(1 0 n) to generate a new daughter nuclei (2 1H). </span>
