Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
To determine that how the given phase diagram should be modified so as to represent the melting of orthorhombic sulfur.
Concept introduction:
A phase transition refers to the transitions that occurs between
(b)
Interpretation:
To account for the given observation where rhombic sulfur is melted at 113oC and then it is heated such that the liquid sulfur gets freezed at 119oC upon cooling.
Concept introduction:
A phase transition refers to the transitions that occurs between solid, liquids and gas. There is a triple point that exists in a given phase diagram and at this point all the three states of matter are known to be coexist. The melting of a substance is said to occur when its state changes from solid to liquid. The reverse of melting is known as fusion or freezing where the state of the substance changes from liquid to solid.

- Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons. Describe how electronegativity is illustrated on the periodic table including trends between groups and periods and significance of atom size.arrow_forwardDefine the term “transition.” How does this definition apply to the transition metals?arrow_forwardDescribe how the properties of the different types of elements (metals, nonmetals, metalloids) differ.arrow_forward
- Use a textbook or other valid source to research the physical and chemical properties of each element listed in Data Table 1 using the following as a guideline: Ductile (able to be deformed without losing toughness) and malleable (able to be hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or cracking) or not ductile or malleable Good, semi, or poor conductors of electricity and heat High or low melting and boiling points Occur or do not occur uncombined/freely in nature High, intermediate, or low reactivity Loses or gains electrons during reactions or is not reactivearrow_forwardProvide the Physical and Chemical Properties of Elements of the following elements listedarrow_forwardQuestions 4 and 5arrow_forward
- For a titration of 40.00 mL of 0.0500 M oxalic acid H2C2O4 with 0.1000 M KOH, calculate the pH at each of the following volume of KOH used in the titration: 1) before the titration begin;2) 15 mL; 3) 20 mL; 4) 25 mL; 5) 40 mL; 6) 50 mL. Ka1 = 5.90×10^-2, Ka2 = 6.50×10^-5 for oxalic acid.arrow_forwardPredict the major organic product(s), if any, of the following reactions.
