PlEASE HELP! 40! A radioactive form of sodium pertechnetate is used as a brain-scanning agent in medicine. Quantitative analysis of a sample with a mass of 0.8961 g found 0.1114 g of sodium and 0.4749 g of technetium. The remainder was oxygen. Determine the empirical formula.

Explanation:

moles Na = 0.1114 g / 22.9898 g/mol=0.004846

moles Tc = 0.4562g /98.9063 g/mol=0.004612

mass O = 0.8961 - ( 0.1114 + 0.4562)=03285 g

moles O = 0.3285 g/ 15.999 g/mol=0.02053

divide by the smallest

0.02053/ 0.004612 =4.45 => O

0.004846/ 0.004612 = 1.0 => Tc

to get whole numbers multiply by 2

Hope it right hope it helps

alkaline metals are lithium, sodium, rubidium, potassium, cesium and francium.

alkali metals have electronegativity from 0.7 to 1, lowest in periodic table of elements, which means that alkali metals (i group in periodic table) has positive oxidation number in compounds.

electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons,

for example, potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.

electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉k 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.

they can not exist alone in nature, because they are very reactive.

you did not give any options thus this is the best answer i can give to you with this little information you have given

> they are both natural and not man made

> they can be tracked and predicted by the right tools
