Write the outer electron configuration for the Group 14 element in the fifth period.

Silver tarnishes as silver metal reacts with hydrogen sulfide, h2s, in the air. in this reaction, dark silver sulfide, au2s, covers the surface of silver. when silver is polished, this coating of silver sulfide can be removed from the surface. this makes the silver shiny again. enter the coefficients that balance the tarnishing reaction equation. (type 1 for no coefficient.)

How does the value of the equilibrium constant show that a reaction reaches equilibrium very quickly? (a) the equilibrium constant is large. (b) the equilibrium constant is small. (c) the equilibrium constant is zero. (d) the value of the equilibrium constant does not show how quickly a reaction comes to equilibrium.

Two solids are mixed in a flask and stirred. after a few minutes, the flask becomes cold. which of the following best describes this reaction? a. an exothermic reaction b. a combustion reaction c. an endothermic reaction d. a decomposition reaction
