What elements do q r and x represent

Question

Accepted Answer

Hey everyone in this example, we need to identify the element that X. represents in the given chemical symbol. So analyzing our chemical symbol, we want to recognize that in our left hand subscript we have the number 32. And recall that this number in the left hand subscript of any chemical symbol is describing our atomic number. So we want to recall that our atomic number is found or is described by our number of protons, which is equal to our number of electrons in a given element. And so when we look at our periodic tables, we want to find the number 32. And we would see that this corresponds on the periodic table to the element G. E. Which is known as Germanium. And so we would identify this element as geranium because it has atomic number 32 on the periodic table. And so to complete this example, answer choice D is going to be our final answer as Germany um being the identity of our unknown element chemical X. So if you have any questions, please leave them down below. And I will see everyone in the next practice video.
