How many orbitals are in the 4d subshell?
One orbital - 6s which can hold 2 electrons.
How can tell whether or not an element will react with other elements?
On the periodic table, there are periods that are rows, and groups that are columns. Elements in the same group react like the other elements in the group.
Which is the odd one out out of aluminum magnesium sodium and silicon?
A couple of different cases could be made here, but the most obvious one is that silicon is the odd element out. The element magnesium is in Group 2, which is the Alkaline Earth metals. Both aluminum and lead are Poor Metals, and silicon is a Metalloid. The operative word for the first three elements is metal. And silicon is not one. Use the link below to see the really cool periodic table posted at Wikipedia. Note that this table is interactive, and each element is a hyperlink to the Wikipedia post on that element.

What is considered a pure substance?
Pureness is in the eye of the beholder. But monocrystaline minerals could be considered "pure" as could anything consisting of just one element or one compound.
What way can a scientists could really change copper into gold?
You can't. An element is the simplest form that anything can be broken down into.
A M2 plus ion derived from a metal in the first transition metal series has four electrons in the 3d subshell What element might M be?
It's chromium. The element would have lost 2 electrons from the 4s subshell, leaving 3d4 as your valence.
Suppose you could see a 2s subshell and a 2p subshell. How could you tell them apart?
You can differentiate between a 2s and a 2p subshell based on their shape. The 2s subshell is spherically symmetric and has one orbital. On the other hand, the 2p subshell has a dumbbell shape and consists of three orbitals: px, py, and pz, each oriented along separate axes.
A subshell contains eight electrons. Which subshell could it be?
A subshell that contains eight electrons is the 3d subshell. The d subshell can hold a maximum of 10 electrons, but in this case, with eight electrons, it is likely filled with a combination of spin-up and spin-down electrons. Other subshells, such as p (which can hold a maximum of 6 electrons) or s (which can hold a maximum of 2 electrons), cannot contain eight electrons.
What to draw for element in science?
You could draw a simplified representation of an atom with its nucleus and electron shells, or a diagram showing the water cycle to represent the element of water. Another idea could be a simple illustration of a chemical reaction to showcase how elements interact with each other.
How would you use the periodic table to replace one of the elements in a new substance with another element that has similar chemical properties?
You would see which group the element was in and then replace it with another element from the same group, as all elements in a group have similar properties. For example you could replace Sodium with Potassium as they are both in Group 1.
Is Q an element?
No, there is no element that has the symbol Q.
How could you change equal representation in the senate?
No amendment could change equal representation in the senate without
What element in group 16 was known during the roman empire?
It could be Cobalt Ferrum erat. It was Iron.(Fe)
What determins an element?
You can determine what element an atom is by it's amount of sub-atomic particles and their positions. Every element has a different amount of electrons, so that is the easiest way to determine what type an atom is. If you wanted to determine it more broadly, for example, which group an element was in, you could just count the amount of electrons in the outer shell, as each group is unique in this way.
What does 03.14. 16?
It does nothing. It consists of the first five digits of pi. It could be the representation of a date in the US style. It does nothing. It consists of the first five digits of pi. It could be the representation of a date in the US style. It does nothing. It consists of the first five digits of pi. It could be the representation of a date in the US style. It does nothing. It consists of the first five digits of pi. It could be the representation of a date in the US style.
Is 672 an element?
Not usually, but it could be an element of a set.
What is the element in group 2 that exist as a liquid at room temperature?
No element in Group II is a liquid at room temperature. The only elements that are liquid at room temperature are bromine, which is in Group VII, and mercury, which is a transition metal and Lord only knows how your book defines those, but it's almost certainly NOT Group II. (It could, conceivably, be Group IIB, though the whole thing of group numbers is one of the stupider concepts in chemistry, especially since there are at least three mutually incompatible ways of defining them.)
