Explain why hydrogen is not included in group 1 in most versions of the modern periodic table?
It might be included in group 1 (one). Hydrogen is a special case, because even though it does have the defining characteristic of all group 1 elements, which is that it has one valence electron, it is physically very different from all the other group 1 elements. Hydrogen (at normal temperatures and pressures) is a gas, and all the other group 1 elements are solid metals. As a result, some forms of the periodic table show hydrogen above the rest of the table, in its own special place. However, it does belong in group 1.
What is the name of the song in the new telus commercial with dancing frogs?
It might be "The Final Countdown" is it the one where they are watching fireworks on a tv?
Are fireworks at a wedding tacky?
That depends entirely on the wedding. Where, when and who all determine the use of fireworks. A large outdoor, summer wedding held at a family estate or summer home by the water would be lovely if it ended with fireworks as the newly-weds drove away. A hand full of firecrackers and a couple of rockets set off in the backyard might not have the same effect.
What elements might be distorted by a projection?
the element of color
How do you make fireworks at home?
You really should NOT make your own fireworks, unless you are trained to do so (and a trained expert would not be asking this question). If you try and make your own fireworks and you make a mistake, you could injure or kill yourself and people who happen to be near you. Leave fireworks to the experts, or you might regret it for the rest of your life.
Why is it safer to leave fireworks in a closed tin box?
It is safer to leave fireworks in a closed tin box because if it is not the fireworks might be able to catch oxygen and heat so therefor might be able to expload.
What type of elements have valence electrons?
Elements in every group of the periodic table has some number of valence electrons. The exception is, when it comes to group 18, the number of valence electrons might be considered as either 0 or 8.
What elements have no valency?
The noble gases, or group 18 elements, have oxidation states of zero. However, their chemistries are not as barren as one might expect. Please see the link for the periodic table and individual articles for these elements.
Is it against the Buddhist religion to use fireworks?
The are are no constraints on fireworks. The purpose of using the works might be suspect - an ostentatious show of wealth, disruption of other activites etc.
Do fireworks cost less during holidays?
Some might, due to sales and all.
Why chemists might sometimes store reactive chemicals in argon to which family does argon belong?
Argon belongs to group VIII, the noble gas family. Elements in group VIII are the most uncreative elements, thus it is safe to store reactive substances in them because they will not react with the reactive substance.
Why might you expect magnesium carbonate to behave in a similar way to calcium carbonate?
They are both group 2 elements, separated by only one period.
How might synthetic elements be harmful?
Synthetic elements might be harmful if they are ingested or inhaled. The elements can cause damage to the lungs, brains, and heart.
Why arsenic might be suitable to substitute phosphorus in organic chemistry and biological reactions?
Because they are both GROUP V A elements, they share the same bonding configurations.
What else might elements might be named?
Elements may also be named for the place where they were discovered or developed
Is it possible that an unknown group in the periodic table might be found?
This is to my opinion not very probable, though never say impossible: Today Mendelejev's Periodic Table looks rather incomplete, there were no 'transition' elements in it (group 3 - 12)
Heaviest member of group 2 in the periodic table?
Ununhexium is the heaviest metal in the periodic table of elements. It is man made however, so it might not count. The heaviest natural metal might be Radium.
