To examine: The periodic table to find of two elements are in the same row and their common property.
Introduction: The periodic table of chemical elements shows all the chemical elements listed ina tabular form according to their atomic number, electron distribution, and similar chemical properties. The horizontal rows in the periodic table are called periods, whereas the vertical columns of the periodic table are called the groups. All elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outermost atomic orbital. All elements in a period have the equal number of electronic shells. From left to right in a period, each element adds one electron and a proton, thus increasing the atomic number.

- Chlorine is an element with the symbol Cl. Draw and label atomic structure of chlorine indicating the number and locations of protons, neutrons and electrons in one atom of chlorine.arrow_forwardWhich of the following levels in the shell model of an atom can hold up to two electrons? A. The second shell B. The first shell C. The third shellarrow_forwardIodine has 37 known isotopes. Therefore, the atomic mass has a range of 108-144 amu. Which of the following statements concerning iodine is correct? A) The isotopes of iodine have between 55 and 91 protons. B) An atom of iodine can have between 55 and 91 neutrons. C) The isotopes of iodine will always have the same number of neutrons, but the protons can vary. D) The isotopes of iodine have between 108 and 144 neutrons, but the number of protons will not vary.arrow_forward
- How does the bond energy of a double bond compare to that of two single bonds between the same elements? How does this relationship explain the types of reactions that compounds with double bonds undergo?arrow_forwardReferring to PHC elements, why is PHC not relevant todayarrow_forwardLook up antimony in the periodic table 1Z = 512. How many covalent bonds would you expect it to form? Based on this information, which of the following antimony compounds is covalent and which is ionic: SbCl3 or SbCl5?arrow_forward
- Elemental analysis of a compound with molar mass 342.3 g/mol gives the following mass percent composition: C 42.11%, H 6.48%, O 51.41%. Find the molecular formula of the compound. Enter your answer in the space below using the following format: if the molecular formula of a compound containing elements X, Y, and Z is X2YZ3 enter your answer as X2YZ3.arrow_forwardVisit this website (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/ptable) to view the periodic table. In the periodic table of the elements, elements in a single column have the same number of electrons that can participate in a chemical reaction. These electrons are known as valence electrons. For example, the elements in the first column all have a single valence electron—an electron that can be donated in a chemical reaction with another atom. What is the meaning of a mass number shown in parentheses?arrow_forwardFigure 2.3 How many neutrons do carbon-12 and carbon-13 have, respectively?arrow_forward
- Polonium is a rare element with 33 radioisotopes. The most common one, 210Po, has 82 protons and 128 neutrons. When 210Po decays, it emits an alpha particle, which is a helium nucleus (2 protons and 2 neutrons). 210Po decay is tricky to detect because alpha particles do not carry very much energy compared to other forms of radiation. They can be stopped by, for example, a sheet of paper or a few inches of air. This property is one reason why authorities failed to discover toxic amounts of 210Po in the body of former KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko until after he died suddenly and mysteriously in 2006. What element does an atom of 210Po decay into after it emits an alpha particle?arrow_forwardMagnesium has an atomic number of 12. Which of the following statements is true of a neutral magnesium atom? a. It has 12 protons, 12 electrons, and 12 neutrons. b. It has 12 protons, 12 electrons, and six neutrons. c. It has six protons, six electrons, and no neutrons. d. It has six protons, six electrons, and six neutrons.arrow_forwardPolonium is a rare element with 33 radioisotopes. The most common one, P210o, has 84 protons and 126 neutrons. When P210o decays, it emits an alpha particle, which is a helium nucleus 2 protons and 2 neutrons. P210o decay is tricky to detect because alpha particles do not carry very much energy compared to other forms of radiation. For example, they can be stopped by a single sheet of paper or a few inches of air. That is one reason why authorities failed to discover toxic amounts of P210o in the body of former KGB agent Alexander Litvinenko until after he died suddenly and mysteriously in 2006.
