We experimented on various elements: Mossy Zinc, Aluminum Turnings, Copper Turnings, Activated Carbon, and Iron Fillings. We identified the physical properties based on Color, Luster, Form, and Conductivity and the chemical properties based on reaction to HCl and CuCl2. We were tasked to identify if the given elements were metals or nonmetals. The result of our observation is shown in the image. Based on this, what elements are metals and nonmetals? Iron is known to be a metal however, the iron fillings did not conduct electricity and do not have a metallic luster. Does that mean they are not metal? Is it right to say "corroded" in the CuCl2, when the sample formed rust-like material on its surface?

- Molecules and compounds are made up of many atoms, however, not all molecules are compounds. Which molecules are not considered to be compounds? What evidence do you have to make that conclusion?arrow_forwardThere are quite a few pieces of information we can glean from a chemical formula. The first is the mass of that formula. In looking at the periodic table, we know that each element has its own mass. When we combine that information with how we interpret how many of each element there is in the formula that we just went over, we can calculate the mass of the compound. Using glucose as an example: C6H12O6 tells us that glucose has 6 carbons, 12 hydrogens and 6 oxygens. On the periodic table, carbon has a mass of 12 g, hydrogen has a mass of 1 g, and oxygen has a mass of 16 g (I've rounded for ease. There will be times you use the entire mass provided on the table and times you won't -you'll know when). C = 6 x 12g = 72g H = 12 X 1g = 12 g O = 6 X 16g = 96g Add these values together and you get 180 g so glucose has a mass of 180 g. Calculate the mass of H2SO4.arrow_forwardCalculate the theoretical density of MgO. The atomic weights for Mg and O are 24.31 g/mol and 16.00 g/mol, respectively.
