- What is the name of the element in Group 4A and Period 5?arrow_forward2.42 What is a period in the periodic table? From what does it derive its name?arrow_forwardArrange the following in the order of increasing mass. (a) a potassium ion, K+ (b) a phosphorus molecule, P4 (c) a potassium atom (d) a platinum atomarrow_forward
- 2.84 Early attempts to arrange the elements often focused on atomic weight. Mendeleev considered a number of properties in addition to atomic weight, so he realized that some elements seemed out of place when ordered by atomic weight. Using the modern periodic table, identify elements for which Mendeleev must have had to switch the order in order to get the correct sequence of elements.arrow_forward2.87 What is the heaviest element to have an atomic weight that is roughly twice its atomic number? What does this suggest must he true about the nuclei of atoms with higher atomic numbers?arrow_forwardMass spectrometric analysis showed that there are four isotopes of an unknown element having the following masses and abundances: Three elements in the periodic table that have atomic weights near these values are lanthanum (La), atomic number 57, atomic weight 138.9055; cerium (Ce), atomic number 58, atomic weight 140.115; and praseodymium (Pr), atomic number 59, atomic weight 140.9076. Using the data above, calculate the atomic weight, and identify the element if possible.arrow_forward
- 2-69 (Chemical Connections 2A) Why does the body need sulfur, calcium, and iron?arrow_forwardOne of the best indications of a useful theory is that it raises more questions for further experimentation than it originally answered. Does this apply to Daltons atomic theory? Give examples.arrow_forwardIdentify each of the following elements as a metal, non-metal, or metalloid: (a) gallium, (b) molybdenum, (c) tellurium, (d) arsenic, (e) xenon, (f) ruthenium.arrow_forward
- Identify each of the following elements as a metal, nonmetal,or metalloid: (a) gallium, (b) molybdenum, (c) tellurium,(d) arsenic, (e) xenon, (f) ruthenium.arrow_forwardExamine the ratio of atomic mass to atomic number for the elements with even atomic number through calcium. This ratio is approximately the ratio of the average mass number to the atomic number. (a) Which two elements stand out as different in this set of ten? (b) What would be the "expected" atomic mass of argon, based on the correlation considered here? (c) Show how the anomaly in the ordering of natural atomic masses of argon and potassium can be accounted for by the formation of “extra" 40 Ar via decay of 4°K atoms.arrow_forward38. I Write the symbol of the element in each given group and period. (a) Group 1A/I, Period 6; (b) Group 6A/16, Period 3; (c) Group 7B/7, Period 4; (d) Group TA/I, Period 2.arrow_forward
