- Give the correct symbol and name for the element being described in each ofthe following. (i) Element with the smallest atomic radius in Group 15.(ii) Most metallic behaviour in Group 2.(iii) Element whose trinegative anion (charge 3-) has electronic configuration3s^2 3p^6arrow_forwardIt is possible to define metallic character as we do in this bookand base it on the reactivity of the element and the ease withwhich it loses electrons. Alternatively, one could measure how well electricity is conducted by each of the elements todetermine how “metallic” the elements are. On the basis ofconductivity, there is not much of a trend in the periodic table:Silver is the most conductive metal, and manganese theleast. Look up the first ionization energies of silver and manganese;which of these two elements would you call moremetallic based on the way we define it in this book?arrow_forwardvi. Answer true or false. (a) Elements in the same column of the Periodic Table have the same outer-shell electron configuration. (b) All Group 1A elements have one electron in their valence shell. (c) All Group 6A elements have six electrons in their valence shell. (d) All Group 8A elements have eight electrons in their valence shell. (e) Period 1 of the Periodic Table has one element, period 2 has two elements, period 3 has three elements, and so forth. (1) Period 2 results from filling the 2s and 2p orbitals and, therefore, there are eight elements in period 2. (g) Period 3 results from filling the 3s, 3p, and 3d orbitals and, therefore, there are nine elements in period 3. (h) The main-group elements are s block and p block elements.arrow_forward

Sandra, the registered nurse, does a venipuncture and withdraws 8.0 mL of blood. About 70% of the iron in the body is used to form hemoglobin, which is a protein in the red blood cells that carries oxygen to the cells of the body. About 30% is stored in ferritin, bone marrow, and the liver. When the iron level is low, a person may have fatigue and decreased immunity. Enter an equality for one tablet of the iron supplement. Express the mass in milligrams to two significant figures. Previous Answers The normal range for serum iron in men is 80 to 160 mcg/dL. Greg's iron test showed a blood serum iron level of 42 mcg/dL, which indicates that Greg has iron deficiency anemia. His doctor orders an iron supplement to be taken twice daily (b.i.d.).
