Medical implants and high-quality jewelry items for body piercing are frequently known by a trade name, G23Ti, which means "surgical-grade" titanium. It is made up of 64.3% titanium, 24.19% aluminum and 11.42% vanadium.

What is the empirical formula that represents this material?

Ti6Al4V1 or Ti6Al4V

Explanation:

So, from the question above we are given the following Important data or parameters or information which is going to help us in solving this question and they are;

The "surgical-grade" titanium is made up of 64.3% titanium, 24.19% aluminum and 11.42% vanadium.

This is a stoichiometry Question so in order to be able to solve this question one must have the basic knowledge of stoichiometry, it is advisable that one revise it.

So, let us delve right into the solution of this question. Recall that, the formula for Calculating the number of moles = mass/molar mass.

Hence, the number of moles of titanium,Ti = 64.3/47.87 = 3 moles.

Also, the number of moles of aluminum = 24.19/26.98 = 0.8966

For vanadium; 11.42/51 = 0.22

The next step is to divide each number of moles component by the lowest number of mole, that is;

Ti = 1.34/ 0.22 = 6; Al = 0.8966/0.22= 4 and V = 0.22/0.22 = 1.

Thus, the emperical formula is = Ti6Al4V.

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms
