Arisa [49]2 years ago

Alkaline earth metals are metals of group two. They are divalent metals and they have a highly negative reduction potential hence the metals are mostly extracted by electrolysis.

They are highly reactive metals. They react with water but do so less readily than alkali earth metals.

Owing to their high reactivity, they are seldom found free in nature. They always occur in combined state with other highly reactive nonmetals.

One atom of silicon can properly be combined in a compound with
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

C. two atoms of oxygen.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Silicon has 14 electrons

Silicon is part of Group IV, all the elements there have 4 valence electrons.

It can form a compound when 4 valence electrons bind with the 4 valence elctrons of silicon

A. four atoms of calcium.

Calcium has 2 valence elctrons. 4 atoms of calcium <u>cannot bind</u> on 1 atom of silicon since there are only 4 valence electrons.

B. one atom of chlorine.

1 atom of chlorine has 7 valence electrons. Chlorine can bind with an atom with 1 valence electron. Since silicon has 4 valence electrons, they will <u>not bind.</u>

Silicon can bind with 4 atoms of chlorine to form SiCl4

C. two atoms of oxygen.

Oxygen has 6 valence electrons, this means oxygen can bind with an element with 2 valence electrons.

Since silicon has 4 valence electrons, it <u>can bind</u> with 2 atoms of oxygen to form SiO2 (silicon dioxide).

D. three atoms of hydrogen.

Hydrogen has 1 valence electron. 1 hydrogen atom can bind with an element that has 7 valence electrons.

Three atoms of hydrogen can bind with an element that has 5 valence electrons.

Silicon <u>will not</u> bind with 3 atoms of hydrogen ( but can bind with 4 atoms of hydrogen)

How many hydrogen atoms are in a cycloalkane with 8 carbon atoms?
frosja888 [35]
Cycloalkanes are those saturated organic compounds which exist in the form of Rings. Their Hydrogen Deficiency Index in one. The General formula for cycloalkanes is,
                                                  CnH2n
When number of Carbons = 8
Then
                                                  C₈H₂₍₈₎

                                                  C₈H₁₆

Result:
           
Cycloalkane containing 8 carbon atoms has 16 hydrogen atoms.

Ar (g) is placed in a 3.80 L container at 320 K. The gas pressure is 0.496 atm.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

PV=nRt

Therefore n(number of moles)=PV/RT

=>(0.49×3.80)/(0.08206×320)

Therefore Number of moles is = 0.071mols

Explanation: By using the Real gas equation..

PV=NRT .

We can solve for the number of moles of Ar by making N the subject..

Always make sure you pressure is In atm, your Volume is in Litres and temperature in degree Kelvin.

Also Recall the universal gas constant R used in this type of questions which is 0.08206.

Hence l, by making N the subject we get our answer as

How many atoms of hydrogen are present in 2.92 g of water?
Wittaler [7]
The molecular weight of water is <span>18.01528 g/mol.
So in 2.92 grams there are 2.92/</span>18.01528 = 0.1621 mol of particles.

1 mol contains 6,02214 × 10^<span>23 particles by definition.

So the nr of H2O molecules is </span>0.1621 * 6,02214 × 10^23 = 0,9761 × 10^23.

Every molecule has 2 H atoms, so you have to double that.

2* 0,9761 × 10^23 = 1.952 × 10^23.
