The accuracy is associated with magnitude of fractional error or relative error in that measurement
the precision of a measurement is associated with least count of the measuring instrument.
precision does not mean accuracy but both are highly demanded while making measurements in physics.
The answer is Strontium(Sr). The reactive increase from right to left. And this element has two valence electrons. So Rb is not correct. Then the very reactive metal is Sr.
Answer:
The answer to your question is C₂HO₃
Explanation:
Data
Hydrogen = 3.25%
Carbon = 19.36%
Oxygen = 77.39%
Process
1.- Write the percent as grams
Hydrogen = 3.25 g
Carbon = 19.36 g
Oxygen = 77.39 g
2.- Convert the grams to moles
1 g of H ----------------- 1 mol
3,25 g of H ------------- x
x = (3.25 x 1) / 1
x = 3.25 moles
12 g of C ---------------- 1 mol
19.36 g of C ---------- x
x = (19.36 x 1) / 12
x = 1.61 moles
16g of O --------------- 1 mol
77.39 g of O --------- x
x = (77.39 x 1)/16
x = 4.83
3.- Divide by the lowest number of moles
Carbon = 3.25/1.61 = 2
Hydrogen = 1.61/1.61 = 1
Oxygen = 4.83/1.61 = 3
4.- Write the empirical formula
C₂HO₃
Lithium is a good reducing agent because it is electropositive [it rapidly gains electrons]
fluorine is good oxidizing agent electronegative [it loses electrons fastly]
Answer:
Yes. Example: <u>Sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆) molecule</u>
Explanation:
According to the octet rule, elements tend to form chemical bonds in order to have <u>8 electrons in their valence shell</u> and gain the stable s²p⁶ electronic configuration.
However, this rule is generally followed by main group elements only.
Exception: <u>SF₆ molecule</u>
In this molecule, six fluorine atoms are attached to the central sulfur atom by single covalent bonds.
<u>Each fluorine atom has 8 electrons in their valence shells</u>. Thus, it <u>follows the octet rule.</u>
Whereas, there are <u>12 electrons around the central sulfur atom</u> in the SF₆ molecule. Therefore, <u>sulfur does not follow the octet rule.</u>
<u>Therefore, the SF₆ molecule is known as a </u><u>hypervalent molecule</u><u> or expanded-valence molecule.</u>
