A. iron oxide (FeO) B. magnesium bromide (MgBr2) C. sodium chloride (NaCl) D. potassium hydride (KH) Answers 1. C 2. C 3. D 4. C 5. C 6. B 7. A 8. A 9. -- 10. A Explanations 1. The elements in group 18 of the periodic table are noble gases. They all have a full outer shell of electrons. This property makes all these elements very stable and unreactive. 2. The columns of the periodic table are grouped by common properties into groups, or families. One common property is that main group elements (i.e., non-transition metals) in the same family tend to have the same number of valence electrons. A notable exception to this trend is helium which only has two valence electrons, while other elements within the same family have eight. 3. Pure substances are composed of only one type of material, and they have definite properties. Elements are the simplest pure substance, since they are composed of only one type of atom. For example, the element carbon is a pure substance, because it is only composed of carbon atoms. Compounds are also pure substances because they are composed of only one type of molecule. For example, water is a pure substance that is composed of two atoms of hydrogen chemically combined with one atom of oxygen. Once combined, water molecules are classified as pure substances because they cannot be broken down by ordinary means. Therefore, the correct answer is all of these. 4. Metals make up the majority of the periodic table and are found on the middle to left side of the periodic table. If you are traveling down a column consisting of metals, the reactivity and atomic radius increases as the ionization energy and electron affinity decreases. 5. Halogens, or "salt-formers," are located in group 17 of the periodic table. The halogens have the following properties: They have low melting points and low boiling points. They exist as diatomic molecules in the gas phase. They have seven electrons in their outermost shell, which means they have seven valence electrons. They are highly reactive nonmetals. They tend to gain electrons and form negative ions. Fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine are the most common of the halogens. Astatine is a halogen also. However, it is a radioactive element with an extremely short half life, so it is rarely found in nature. 6. Elements on the periodic table are organized in order of their atomic numbers. Since the atomic number is equal to the number of protons, this number is always a whole number. According to the periodic table, the atomic number of the element boron is 5. 7. An element is a substance that contains only one type of atom and cannot be broken down by chemical or physical means. 8. The periodic table consists of elements following a repeating pattern of outermost electrons, or valence electrons. Valence electrons determine the chemical properties of atoms. The following table shows the valence electrons for the groups with representative elements. Group (column) Valence Electrons 1 1 2 2 13 3 14 4 15 5 16 6 17 7 18 8 Helium is an exception to the above pattern. Its atoms only have 2 valence electrons, instead of 8. The number of valence electrons varies for the transition elements (groups 3-12), so their patterns are less predictable. 9. -- 10. Transition metals are those that usually have incompletely filled d orbitals. Since the electron configuration of iron is 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d6, iron is a transition metal. All of the other elements listed are representative elements. .

  • Chapter 9 Hydrogen
    Chapter 9 Hydrogen Diborane, B2 H6• is the simplest member of a large class of compounds, the electron-deficient boron hydrid Like all boron hydrides, it has a positive standard free energy of formation, and so cannot be prepared direct from boron and hydrogen. The bridge B-H bonds are longer and weaker than the tenninal B-H bonds (13: vs. 1.19 A). 89.1 Reactions of hydrogen compounds? (a) Ca(s) + H2Cg) ~ CaH2Cs). This is the reaction of an active s-me: with hydrogen, which is the way that saline metal hydrides are prepared. (b) NH3(g) + BF)(g) ~ H)N-BF)(g). This is the reaction of a Lewis base and a Lewis acid. The product I Lewis acid-base complex. (c) LiOH(s) + H2(g) ~ NR. Although dihydrogen can behave as an oxidant (e.g., with Li to form LiH) or reductant (e.g., with O2 to form H20), it does not behave as a Br0nsted or Lewis acid or base. It does not r with strong bases, like LiOH, or with strong acids. 89.2 A procedure for making Et3MeSn? A possible procedure is as follows: ~ 2Et)SnH + 2Na 2Na+Et3Sn- + H2 Ja'Et3Sn- + CH3Br ~ Et3MeSn + NaBr 9.1 Where does Hydrogen fit in the periodic chart? (a) Hydrogen in group 1? Hydrogen has one vale electron like the group 1 metals and is stable as W, especially in aqueous media. The other group 1 m have one valence electron and are quite stable as ~ cations in solution and in the solid state as simple 1 salts.

    Materials Transactions, Vol. 57, No. 7 (2016) pp. 1215 to 1219 ©2016 The Japan Institute of Metals and Materials Hydrogen Ab/Desorption of LiH-KH Composite and Ammonia System Kiyotaka Goshome1,*1, Hiroki Miyaoka2, Hikaru Yamamoto3,*2, Takayuki Ichikawa4,*3 and Yoshitsugu Kojima1 1Institute for Advanced Materials Research, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima 739–8530, Japan 2Institute for Sustainable Sciences and Development, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima 739–8530, Japan 3Graduate School of Advanced Sciences of Matter, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima 739–8530, Japan 4Graduate School of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima 739–8521, Japan Lithium hydride-Potassium hydride (LiH-KH) composite prepared by ball-milling is focused in order to modify the kinetic properties of the reaction between LiH and gaseous ammonia (NH3). The LiH-NH3 system is recognized as one of the most promising hydrogen storage system because it generates hydrogen at room temperature by ammonolysis reaction, is regenerated below 300°C, and possesses more than 8.0 mass% hydrogen capacity. From the experimental results, it is conrmed that the hydrogen generation from the reaction between NH3 and the LiH-KH composite shows much higher reaction rate than that of the simple summation of each component, which can be recognized as a synergetic effect. Then, double-cation metal amide (MNH2) phases such as LiK(NH2)2, which are not assigned to any amides reported before, are formed as the reaction product. Moreover, it is conrmed that hydrogenation of the generated amide can proceed to form LiH-KH compos- ite and NH3.

  • Chemical Safety -- Reactives ______
    V(e). CHEMICAL SAFETY -- REACTIVES ___________________________________________________________________ A. WHAT ARE REACTIVE CHEMICALS? Reactive chemicals are chemicals that can, under certain conditions, release very large and potentially dangerous amounts of energy. Reactive chemicals can lead to reactions that differ from the routine mainly in the rate at which they progress. A chemical reaction can be considered routine if the reaction rate is relatively slow or can be easily controlled. It is this question of rate of reaction and ability to control that rate that marks certain chemicals as warranting special precautions and the label “reactive chemical”. The primary difficulty in identifying reactives stems from the variety of conditions under which certain chemicals can undergo an uncontrollable hazardous reaction. Some chemicals are simply unstable and can vigorously polymerize, decompose or condense, or become self-reactive. Other chemicals can react violently when exposed to common environmental chemicals or conditions. The following discussion highlights the most common groups of reactives and includes examples of chemicals in each group. Some chemicals react spontaneously with very common chemicals in the environment such as water or the components of the atmosphere. Many pure metals, for example, will oxidize on exposure to the atmosphere. Many chemicals are stable except when combined with certain other chemicals. These hazardous combinations are listed in the table “Classes of Incompatible Chemicals” in Section V(c). Some chemicals require very little energy of activation to initiate a spontaneous reaction. If the reaction is exothermic, the energy initially produced may accelerate a continued reaction and a release of energy too violent to be controlled. Temperature, shock, static, or light may trigger an uncontrollable reaction.

  • Studies of the Hydrides of the Heavier Group 14 Elements
    Studies of the Hydrides of the Heavier Group 14 Elements Daniel Hugh Brown A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the University of Edinburgh 1998 Declaration This thesis has been composed by myself and it has not been submitted in any previous application for a degree. The work reported within was executed by myself, unless otherwise stated. May 1998 1 Abstract The chemistry of some simple tin hydrides (CH3)4_ SnH (x = 1-4) has been investigated with particular reference to their reactivity towards the reagents NaH, KH, alkyl lithium compounds, and the ylids Me 3P C H2 and Ph3PCH2 . It has been found that the reaction between the stannanes and alkali metal hydrides or the ylids produces salts containing the respective stannyl anions, [Sn(CHa)sH] (x = 0-3). These salts have been characterised by low tem- perature infrared spectroscopy, the results of which are in good agreement with the results of ab initio calculations. In contrast, reactions involving alkyl lithium compounds proceed by transmetallation with elimination of LiH and alkylation of the tin centre. The technique of in situ crystal growth at low temperatures has been used to obtain X-ray crystal structures of Me 3P C H2 , Me2Sn H2 and Me3Sn H. The structure of the ylid in the solid phase has been shown to resemble the calculated structure of a transition state involving rotation of the CH 2 group about the P-C aids. The reaction between monochlorostannane and sodium metal produced small quantities of Sn 2H6, detected by mass spectrometry.
