- The photo here depicts what happens when a coil of magnesium ribbon and a few calcium chips are placed in water. (a) Based on these observations, what might you expect to see when barium, another Croup 2A element, is placed in water? (b) Give the period in which each element (Mg. Ca, and Ba) is found. What correlation do you think you might find between the reactivity of these elements and their positions in the periodic table?arrow_forwardThere are 1.699 1022 atoms in 1.000 g of chlorine. Assume that chlorine atoms are spheres of radius 0.99 and that they are lined up side by side in a 0.5-g sample. How many miles in length is the line of chlorine atoms in the sample?arrow_forwardThe early alchemists used to do an experiment in which water was boiled for several days in a sealed glass container. Eventually. some solid residue would appear in die bottom of the flask, which was interpreted to mean that some of the water in the flask had been converted into earth. When Lavoisier repeated this experiment, he found that the water weighed the same before and after heating, and the mass of die flask plus the solid residue equaled the original mass of the flask. Were the alchemists correct? Explain what really happened. (This experiment is described in the article by A. F. Scott in Scientific American, January 1984.)arrow_forward
- Copper atoms. (a) What is the average mass of one copper atom? (b) Students in a college computer science class once sued the college because they were asked to calculate the cost of one atom and could not do it. But you are in a chemistry course, and you can do this. (See E. Felsenthal, Wall Street Journal, May 9, 1995.)

From their mass, he concluded that these particles were formed from residual gas in the tube. For example, if the cathode ray tube contained helium, the canal rays consisted of He+ ions. Describe a process that could lead to these ions. Canal rays. In 1886, Eugene Goldstein detected a stream of particles traveling in the direction opposite to that of the negatively charged cathode rays (electrons). He called this stream of positive particles "canal rays:"arrow_forward
