The periodic table of elements is divided into columns and rows. The vertical columns represent the groups while the horizontal rows represent the periods. A group of elements usually have similar physical and chemical properties. The first column of the periodic table is made up of 7 elements including SODIUM.
1. The name of the element chosen is sodium and its chemical symbol is Na.
2. Sodium is a metal and thus it has metallic properties.
3. Sodium belongs to group one elements whose family name is ALKALI METALS.
4. The neutral atom of sodium is made up of 11 protons, 11 electrons and 12 neutrons.
Answer:
Group 8 or Group 0
Explanation:
Group 8 or Group 0 are generally inert gases with Helium as the first member in that group. Their complete duplet (in the case of Helium) and Octet (in the case of Neon) configuration makes them very stable and chemically un-reactive.
Global warming, the gradual increase of the temperature of the earth's lower atmosphere as a result of the increase in greenhouse gases since the Industrial Revolution. Global warming and its effects, such as more intense summer and winter storms, are also referred to as climate change.
Answer: Below (=
Explanation:
There is no space between the individual particles, so they cannot pack together. The kinetic-molecular theory explains why gases are more compressible than either liquids or solids. Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.
