**Question: Select the property that is a characteristic of the group 14 (4A) element carbon.**- ○ it forms extended compounds with oxygen and aluminum- ○ several allotropes of the pure element exist- ○ it is combined with other metals to form the alloys bronze and pewter- ○ it forms oxide and chloride compounds that are used in the production of fiber optics**Explanation:**This question seeks to identify a property unique to carbon, a Group 14 element. Carbon is known for forming several allotropes, such as diamond, graphite, and fullerene, making "several allotropes of the pure element exist" the correct characteristic. The other options describe properties more related to other elements or are not specific features of carbon.

Group 14 consists of the following elements: Carbon, C Silicon, Si Germanium, Ge Tin, Sn Lead, Pb

Select the property that is a characteristic of the group 14 (4A) element carbon. O it forms extended compounds with oxygen and aluminum several allotropes of the pure element exist O it is combined with other metals to form the alloys bronze and pewter O it forms oxide and chloride compounds that are used in the production of fiber optics

Crime scene investigators keep a wide variety of compounds on hand to help with identifying unknown substances they find in the course of their duties. One such investigator, while reorganizing their shelves, has mixed up several small vials and is unsure about the identity of a certain powder. Elemental analysis of the compound reveals that it is 67.31 % carbon, 6.978% hydrogen, 4.617% nitrogen, and 21.10% oxygen by mass. Which of the compounds could the powder be? C17H19NO3C17H19NO3 = morphine, analgesic C17H21NO4C17H21NO4 = cocaine, illicit drug C7H5N3O6C7H5N3O6 = 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), commonly used explosive C10H15NC10H15N = methamphetamine, stimulant C4H5N2OC4H5N2O = caffeine, stimulant C11H15NO2C11H15NO2 = 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), illicit drug C21H23NO5C21H23NO5 = heroin, illicit drug C3H6NO3C3H6NO3 = hexamethylene triperoxide diamine (HMTD), commonly used explosive

A sample contains two metal oxides namely, Barium Oxide(153.34 g/mol) and Calcium Oxide(56.06 g/mol) which weighs 2.0 g. These metal oxides are converted into BaSO4 (233.40 g/mol) and CaSO4 (136.14 g/mol), which weighs 4.0 g. Calculate the percentage of Ba(137.33) and Ca(40.08 g/mol) present in the original sample.
An ice freezer behind a restaurant has a freon leak, releasing 48.73 g48.73 g of C2H2F3Cl into the air every week. If the leak is not fixed, how many kilograms of fluorine will be released into the air over 6 months? Assume there are 4 weeks in a month. mass of fluorine leaked over 6 months: ?KG
Platinum is a precious metal that is used as a catalyst for many important industrial reactions. Platinum can be purified by reacting platinum(IV) bromide solution with aluminium metal. To test this purification process, a student reacted 14.6 kg of aluminium metal with excess platinum(IV) bromide solution. After the reaction was complete, the student had extracted 75.4 kg of platinum metal. From this data, calculate the percent error of this experiment. Hint: Write a balanced chemical reaction equation and calculate the theoretical yield of platinum first. Do not show your work in the space provided. Record only your final answer with the correct number of significant digits and the proper units. Answer: Evaluate your calculated percent error, is this an acceptable percent error?

A student performed a similar experiment to the one you performed: They took a crucible and lid, cleaned them, heated them over a flame, and after cooling found their combined mass to be 22.538 g. The student then added a sample of zinc(II) sulfate hydrate (ZnSO4·“n”H2O) to the crucible so the combined mass of the sample, crucible, and lid was 25.896 g. They heated this sample for 10 minutes with the lid ajar, let it cool, and measured the mass of the crucible, sample, and lid to be 25.054 g. a. Based on this experiment, what is the formula for they hydrated zinc(II) sulfate compound? b. The student later looked on the reagent bottle for zinc(II) sulfate hydrate and found the actual formula was ZnSO4·7H2O. If everything had been done correctly, what value should the student have expected for the final mass of their sample, crucible, and lid after heating?
