Explain how chemists can state with certainty that no one will discover an element that would appear on the periodic table between sulfur (s) and chlorine (ci)

Calculate the enthalpy of the following reaction: 4 b (s) + 3 o2 (g) → 2 b2o3 (s) given the following pertinent information: (a) b2o3 (s) + 3 h2o (g) → 3 o2 (g) + b2h6 (g), δhoa = +2035 kj (b) 2 b (s) + 3 h2 (g) → b2h6 (g), δhob = +36 kj (c) h2 (g) + latex: \frac{1}{2} 1 2 o2 (g) → h2o (l), δhoc = −285 kj (d) h2o (l) → h2o (g), δhod = +44 kj

Effect of rotenone and antimycin a on electron transfer rotenone, a toxic natural product from plants, strongly inhibits nadh dehydrogenase of insect and fish mitochondria. antimycin a, a toxic antibiotic, strongly inhibits the oxidation of ubiquinol. (a) explain why rotenone ingestion is lethal to some insect and fish species. (b) explain why antimycin a is a poison. (c) given that rotenone and antimycin a are equally effective in blocking their respective sites in the electron-transfer chain, which would be a more potent poison? explain.
