Look at the two question marks between zinc (Zn) and arsenic (As). At the time, no elements were known with atomic weights between 65.2 and 75. But Mendeleev predicted that two elements must exist with
atomic weights in this range. What led Mendeleev to predict that two undiscovered elements existed in
that range?

A100-watt light bulb radiates energy at a rate of 100 j/s. (the watt, a unit of power or energy over time, is defined as 1 j/s.) if all of the light emitted has a wavelength of 525 nm , how many photons are emitted per second?

1. suppose a reaction mixture, when diluted with water, afforded 300 ml of an aqueous solution of 30 g of the reaction product malononitrile [ch2(cn)2], which is to be isolated by extraction with ether. the solubility of malononitrile in ether at room temperature is 20.0 g/100 ml, and in water is 13.3 g/100 ml. what weight of malononitrile would be recovered by extraction with (a) three 100-ml portions of ether and (b) one 300-ml portion of ether? suggestion: for each extraction, let x equal the weight extracted into the ether layer. in part (a), the concentration in the ether layer is x/100 and in the water layer is (30 x)/300; the ratio of these quantities is equal to k 20/13.3.

For each of the following types of reactions, write a general reaction formula in the symbolic form—for example, a + b → ab. single-displacement double-displacement synthesis decomposition
