How is selenium similar to sulfur?

Selenium and sulfur are both elements in the same group on the periodic table and share similar chemical properties. They can both form compounds with similar structures, and both have important roles in biological systems. However, selenium is less abundant in nature compared to sulfur.


Which element has similar chemical properties to nitrogen?

elements in the same group as nitrogen will have similar CHEMICAL properties because they have the same number of electrons in the outer shell. (this is according to Bohrs model of the atom, if you want a real confusing answer about valence shells etc. go look at quantam mechanics) So elements in group 7 are phosphurus, arsenic, selenium, tellurium, polonium, these will react with the same chemicals to from similar compounds however they are all solids unlike nitrogen. Elements with similar PHYSICAL properties are elements that are present as gases at room temperature (like nitrogen is) oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, hydrogen and all of group 8 the noble or inert gasses (although inert isn't really a valid term as they can react in the correct conditions)


What is not a true bond but rather an attraction between a partially positive hydrogen atom and a partially negative oxygen or nitrogen atom?

It's called a hydrogen bond. (There's also a vaguely similar concept called a "dipolar" or "dative" bond, but the fact that you've limited it specifically to hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen means that "hydrogen bond" is almost certainly the term you're looking for.)


How does an oxygen atom become an oxide ion?

An oxygen atom becomes an oxide ion by gaining two electrons. This allows it to achieve a stable electron configuration similar to the nearest noble gas, which is neon. The oxide ion has a charge of -2 due to its two extra electrons.


Are carbon oxygen iron and gold elements?

Yes, carbon, oxygen, iron, and gold are all elements. Elements are substances made up of one type of atom, and each has its own unique chemical properties.

Why is sulfur atom similar to oxygen atom?

Because it has 6 electrons in its outer shell, just like oxygen.


What is the smallest particle of an element that still has the same chemical properties?

The smallest particle of matter that keeps all the same properties of oxygen is an oxygen atom. If you mean oxygen gas, O2, then it would be a molecule of two oxygen atoms covalently bonded.

What does the configuration of an atom shows?

The configuration of an atom shows the arrangement of electrons in its energy levels or orbitals. This configuration determines the atom's chemical properties and how it will interact with other atoms to form compounds.

Is an atom of iron the same the same as atom of oxygen?

An atom of iron has 26 protons. An atom of oxygen has 8 protons. The atoms are significantly different.


What is the Lewis structure of ch3cocn?

The Lewis structure of CH3COCN shows a carbon atom in the center bonded to three hydrogen atoms, one oxygen atom, and one nitrogen atom. The oxygen atom is double bonded to the carbon atom, and the nitrogen atom is single bonded to the carbon atom.


What is the diagram of carbon monoxide and how does it relate to its chemical properties?

The diagram of carbon monoxide shows one carbon atom bonded to one oxygen atom. This molecule is known for its strong bond and ability to bind to hemoglobin in the blood, reducing its ability to carry oxygen. This property makes carbon monoxide highly toxic when inhaled.
