B, the Internet.
If Caitlin told Teddy that the largest diamond was found YESTERDAY then it wouldn't be in last month's science magazine. It also wouldn't be able to be in an encyclopedia at the library because there wouldn't have been any time to write, publish, and for the library to get the encyclopedia in one day. Caitlin's parents may not know about Caitlin's claim or about the diamond in the first place. The Internet would likely have an article about the news-breaking diamond as soon as possible.
Answer:
One: <u>Selenium</u> is Paramagnetic
Explanation:
Those compounds which have unpaired electrons are attracted towards magnet. This property is called as paramagnetism. Lets see why remaining are not paramagnetic.
Electronic configuration of Scandium;
Sc = 21 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹
Sc³⁺ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶
Hence in Sc³⁺ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of Bromine;
Br = 35 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁵
Br⁻ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶
Hence in Br⁻ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of Magnesium;
Mg = 12 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²
Mg²⁺ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶
Hence in Mg²⁺ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of selenium;
Se = 34 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁴
Or,
Se = 34 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4px², 4py¹, 4pz¹
Hence in Se there are two unpaired electrons hence it is paramagnetic in nature.
Halogens is defined as the group of 7 periodic table. As, every periodic table contains 7 valence electrons and they only need 1 more to complete an outer shell, that is why they are extremely reactive. And according to the law that recurring patterns of the properties of elements arise when they are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. As the halogen all act very similarly with each other in chemical reaction, it is true.
B is correct. Molecules move faster when they are hotter because they have more energy. You can notice this change with your naked eye. Molecules in solids don't move. They have barely any energy. Hope this helps! ;)
