Matter is comprised of All of the 98 elements that occur naturally have unique qualities that allow them to combine in various ways to create which in turn combine to form cells, tissues, organ systems, and organisms. Atoms, which consist of protons, neutrons, and electrons, are the smallest units of an element that retain all of the properties of that element. Electrons can transfer, share, or cause charge disparities between to create including ionic, covalent, and hydrogen bonds, as well as van der Waals

Fill in the blanks below with a maximum of two words in each space to complete the following definition or principle: Note for filling in blanks: • If one word completes that part of the statement, do not include alternate or additional words. Two words should only be used when two words are needed to complete that part of the statement. Alternate and additional words will be marked as incorrect. • Do not use abbreviations or short-forms of words. • Spelling will be graded in the submitted words.

Which element would you expect to be most similar to the element Argon (Ar) in terms of properties? O Chlorine (CI) because they have a similar number of protons O Neon (Ne) because they have the same number of valence electrons O Aluminum (Al) because they have similar chemical symbols O Sulfur (S) because they have the same number of electron shells
In nature, the noble gases exist as А the sulfides В the gaseous fluorides C) monatomic gaseous atoms D alkali metal salts E solids in rocks and in minerals
A combustion reaction involves the reaction of a substance with oxygen gas. The complete combustion of any hydrocarbon (binary compound of carbon and hydrogen) produces carbon dioxide and water as the only products. Heptane is a hydrocarbon that is found in gasoline. Complete combustion of heptane produces 7 liters of carbon dioxide for every 8 liters of water vapor (both measured at the same temperature and pressure). What is the ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen atoms in a molecule of heptane?
In the periodic table, elements are organized based on their atomic numbers and properties. One of the most significant features of the periodic table is the periodicity in the properties of elements. For example, elements in the same group often exhibit similar chemical behaviors due to having the same number of valence electrons. Consider the halogens, which include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. These elements are found in Group 17 and are known for their high reactivity, particularly with alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, forming salts. Their reactivity decreases as you move down the group. Which of the following statements best explains the reason for the decreasing reactivity of halogens as you move down Group 17? A. The atomic radius decreases, making it harder for the halogens to gain electrons. B. The atomic radius increases, making it easier for the halogens to gain electrons. C. The ionization energy increases, making it easier for the…
