Answer:
<h3>
Merits of modern periodic table:</h3>
- The wrong position of some elements like argon, potassium, cobalt and nickel due to atomic weights have been solved by arranging the elements in the order of increasing atomic number without changing their own places.
- The isotopes of some element have the same atomic numbers. Therefore, they find the same position in periodic table.
- It separates metals from non-metals.
- The groups of the table are divided into sub groups A and B due to their dissimilar properties which make the study of elements specific and easier.
- The representative and transition elements have been separated.
Hope this helps...

Hello, Ginamuhs2!
The oxidizing agent in 2H2S + 3O2 → 2SO2 + 2H2O is the oxygen.
I hope this helps;)
Answer: The ion that contribute to water hardness are:
--> a. Ca2+
--> b. (HCO)3^- and
--> c. Mg2+
While K+ DOES NOT contribute to water hardness.
Explanation:
WATER in chemistry is known as a universal solvent. This is so because it is polar in nature and dissolves most inorganic solutes and some polar organic solutes to form aqueous solutions. It is composed of elements such as hydrogen and oxygen in the combined ratio of 2:1.
Water is said to be HARD if it does not lather readily with soap. There are two types of water hardness:
--> Permanent hardness: This is mainly due to the presence of CALCIUM and MAGNESIUM ions in the form of soluble tetraoxosulphate(VI) and chlorides. These ions are removed by adding washing soda or caustic soda.
--> Temporary hardness: This is due to the presence of calcium HYDROGENTRIOXOCARBONATES. It can be removed by boiling and using slaked lime.
Therefore from the above given ions, Ca2+,(HCO)3^- and Mg2+ contributes to water hardness.
