Accepted Answer

$$81\ \mathrm{kcal}$$

Question 5

Which of the following statements about the periodic table is correct?

Accepted Answer

Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electrons.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

$$1s^2$$\ $$2s^2$$\ $$2p^6$$\ $$3s^2$$

Question 8

A sample of metal has a mass of $$45.0\ \mathrm{g}$$ and a volume of $$15.0\ \mathrm{mL}. $$What is its density?

Accepted Answer

$$3.00\ \mathrm{g/mL}$$

Question 9

Which of the following best describes the trend in atomic size across a period from left to right?

Accepted Answer

Atomic size decreases due to increasing nuclear charge pulling electrons closer.

Question 10

Which of the following is the correct abbreviated electron configuration for bromine ($$\mathrm{Br}$$, atomic number 35)?

Accepted Answer

$$[\mathrm{Ar}]\ 4s^2$\ 3d$$^{10}$$\ 4p^5$

Question 11

A 50.0 g sample of water is heated from $$20.0\ ^\circ\mathrm{C} to$$ $$80.0\ ^\circ\mathrm{C}. If $$the specific heat of water is $$4.18\ \mathrm{J/g\ ^\circ C}$$, how much heat is absorbed?

Accepted Answer

$$12,540\ \mathrm{J}$$

Question 12

Which of the following statements about isotopes is correct?

Accepted Answer

Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

Question 13

Which of the following best describes the electron arrangement in the $$p$$ orbitals?

Accepted Answer

There are three $$p$$ orbitals per energy level, each oriented along a different axis ($$x$$, $$y$$, $$z).$$

Question 14

Which of the following is a homogeneous mixture?

Accepted Answer

Saltwater

Question 15

How many valence electrons does an atom of sulfur ($$\mathrm{S}$$, atomic number 16) have?

Accepted Answer

6

Question 16

Which of the following best explains why ionization energy increases across a period?

Accepted Answer

The increasing nuclear charge holds electrons more tightly, requiring more energy to remove an electron.

Question 17

A student needs to convert $$250\ \mathrm{mg} to $$grams using unit cancellation. Which of the following is the correct calculation?

Accepted Answer

$$250\ \mathrm{mg} 	imes \frac{1\ \mathrm{g}}{1000\ \mathrm{mg}} = 0.250\ \mathrm{g}$$
