Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The fourth most abundant element by mass in the human body needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: Every matter is made of chemicals; the importance of chemistry is that it's the study of everything. Chemistry is all about how something interacts to affect the structure, composition, as well as knowing properties of substances.
(a)
Answer to Problem 6RQ
The element is nitrogen.
Explanation of Solution
The names of the chemical elements have come from many sources. The names of elements come from descriptions of the element’s properties and also, it reflects the place where the element was discovered or it honors a famous scientist.
