Can you explain to me how this is solved - If 112 g of silicon (Si) react completely with 64 g of oxygen (O) to form silica (SiO2), what is the atomic weight of silicon? I am supposed to solve it not using a periodic table and am very confused as to how to get to the answer in the book, 28.
Which of the following elements would you predict to have properties most like those of silicon (Si): aluminum (Al), phosphorus (P), or germanium (Ge)? (Consult the periodic table.)
One amazing and useful fact about nature is that different elements and molecules each have a unique pattern of energy
levels available to their electrons. These different patterns lead to different possible energy transitions for each element
or molecule. How might scientists use this fact to identify the elemental composition of a distant star without even
visiting the star?
