Video transcript

Hi everyone here, we have a question asking us to match the following names to the corresponding three D. Models. We have one helium gas to oxygen gas, three sulfur trioxide, four phosphate ion and five ethyl fluoride. So let's look for our helium gas. We can find that here at the end with just a single helium. So that is 12 oxygen gas. That's gonna be two oxygen's bonded together. And we see that here, three sulfur tri oxide. So we're going to look for a sulfur bonded to three oxygen's and we see that here for Fawcett ion. So we're going to look for a phosphor responded to four oxygen's and we see that here and lastly ethyl fluoride, we're going to look for CH three CH two F, which is here and those are our final answers. Thank you for watching. Bye.

Textbook Question

The first atoms of seaborgium (Sg) were identified in 1974. The longest-lived isotope of Sg has a mass number of 266. (b) Atoms of Sg are very unstable, and it is therefore difficult to study this element's properties. Based on the position of Sg in the periodic table, what element should it most closely resemble in its chemical properties?
