Water quality tests show the presence of a single heavy metal in the drinking water pulled from a local river. Residents are suffering from numerous stomach ailments and are showing signs of long-term kidney damage. The residents of the next town, down river from the first town, seem to be unaffected. Water quality tests in the river by the second town show two types of heavy metals at acceptable legal limits in the water. One of the metals is the same as the one in the first town. What can scientists infer about the possible reason for the illnesses appearing in the first town but not the second?
One metal causes an acute effect, compared to the other.
One metal causes a chronic effect, compared to the other.
The heavy metals have a synergistic relationship when combined.
The heavy metals have an antagonistic relationship when combined.
Answer:
One metal causes a chronic effect, compared to the other
Explanation:
because the question only said ONE is the same, didn't they? so that would mean that not all the metals are the same for both towns
a scientist uses 52g of Na2SO4 for a chemical reaction. how many moles of Na atom does the compound contain a) 0.366 b) 0.732 c) 8.422 d)16.845
Answer:
b). 0.732
Explanation:
52g Na₂SO₄ x 1 mol Na₂SO₄ x 2 mol Na
------------------------- -------------------- = 0.732 mol Na
142.04 g Na₂SO₄ 1 mol Na₂SO₄
Atomic Mass Units
Na₂ = 22.99 x 2 = 45.98
S = 32.06
O₄ = 16 x 4 = 64
Na₂SO₄ = 45.98 + 32.06 + 64 = 142.04
There are 2 moles of Na in 1 mole of Na₂SO₄

Explanation:
what is the wavelength of microwaves if the frequency is 2.45x 10^9 HZ?
Wavelength = Speed of Light ÷ Frequency
= (2.99 × 10⁸ m/s) ÷ ( 2.45 × 10⁹ /s)
= 1.22 × 10⁻¹ m
The wavelength of a light of frequency 2.45 × 10⁹ /s is 1.22 × 10⁻¹ m.
Notes:
Hz ≡ /s
For the following element, predict the most likely oxidation number (charge) for its corresponding ion.
Phosphorus
A. P+1
B. P+3
C. P-1
D. P-3
The most likely ion of Phosphorous is P³⁻ (group 15) since gaining three electrons is the most energetically favorable way for it to follow the octet rule.
Because the charge on ions is equivalent to their oxidation state, then -3 is the most likely oxidation number of Phosphorous.

Do the boiling points and melting points of these elements support the claim that elements of the same group have similar physical characteristics?
Answer:
Elements in the same group has different physical properties such as boiling and melting points. However there are trends of their physical properties down the group.
Explanation:
You should look at the perdoic table to for extra help
The boiling points and melting points of the given elements does not support the claim that elements of the same group have similar physical properties.
What are boiling point and melting point?The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from liquid state to gaseous state. Melting point is the temperature at which the substance changes from solid to liquid state.
Elements in the same group shows similar physical and chemical properties. But from the boiling and melting point we cant say that they are in the same group.
Elements in a group shows a trend in boiling point and melting point but cannot be distinguished with this from other groups.
Hence, boiling point and melting point of the elements do no support for the similar properties in a group.

A fictitious element X is composed of 10.0 percent of the isotope 55 X, 20.0 percent of the
isotope 56 X, and 70.0 percent of the isotope 57 X. Estimate the atomic mass of element X.
Answer:
56.6 g/mol.
Explanation:
Assuming here that we have 100 atoms of each element. The percentage tells us that we have 10 atoms of the 55 isotope, 20 of the 56, and 70 of the 57.
So the total is 10*55 + 20*56 + 70*57 = 5,660. And to get the average, we just divide by the total number of atoms (100).
Atomic mass = 5660/100 = 56.6

Why are plastics known as synthetic materials?
Answer:
It is the length of these chains, and the patterns in which they are arrayed, that make polymers strong, lightweight, and flexible.
Explanation:
Synthetic polymers are made up of long chains of atoms, arranged in repeating units, often much longer than those found in nature. It is the length of these chains, and the patterns in which they are arrayed, that make polymers strong, lightweight, and flexible. In other words, it's what makes them so plastic.

Bromine is an element that often gains an electron to become a negatively charged ion. Potassium is an element that often loses an electron to become a positively charged ion.
Why are bromine and potassium likely to react with one another?
Bromine needs to gain one more electron to have a noble gas configuration or 8 valence electrons, & potassium needs to lose one so they make a transference of electrons in an ionic bond.
What are the functions of ionic bonding?Ionic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that involves the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, or between two atoms with sharply different electronegativities, and is the primary interaction occurring in ionic compounds.
Ionic bonding results in compounds known as ionic, or electrovalent, compounds, which are best exemplified by the compounds formed between nonmetals and the alkali and alkaline-earth metals.
The charge of a cation or anion is denoted as a superscript after the formula of the ion. A + sign denotes a positive charge resulting from loss of electrons. A - sign denotes a negative charge resulting from gain of electrons.
