Why do the elements in a group all behave similarly

Chemistry
1 answer:
Svetradugi [14.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

The elements of the periodic table that belong to the same group (each column) have similar physical and chemical properties. This is because they have the same number of electrons in their last electronic layer.

Example of electronic configuration of elements of GROUP IA:

Hydrogen: 1s ^ 1

Lithium: 1s ^ 2 2s ^ 1

If U-235 decays into Cs-135 and 4 neutrons, what other nuclide will be produced?
dmitriy555 [2]

If U-235 decays into Cs-135 and 4 neutrons, the other nuclide that will be produced is Rb-96 (option D).

<h3>What is radioactive decay?</h3>

A radioactive decay is the process by which an unstable large nuclei emit subatomic particles and disintegrate into one or more smaller nuclei.

According to this question, a radioactive material Uranium- 235 undergoes radioactive decay into Cs- 135 and 4 neutrons (1/0n).

This means that the mass of the products we have is 135 + 4 = 139.

The mass of the nuclide left must be 235 - 139 = 96, hence, the other nuclide that will be produced is Rb-96.

Products made of plastic can last a very long time. Explain both the positive and negative effects of plastic being long-lasting
Vinil7 [7]
Because plastic products are durable, they can last for a long time. This makes them affordable because they do not have to be replaced often. On the other hand, the popular use of plastics means that many plastics are thrown away. Plastics litter the ocean, causing harm to marine birds and mammals. Plastic breaks down into plastic dust, which can last for up to a thousand years.

How does your Respiratory system work with your Cardiovascular system?​
Mazyrski [523]

To supply oxygen to the body, the respiratory system works closely with the circulatory system. As oxygen is taken in into the lungs, it travels through blood vessels, which then circulate oxygen-rich blood to cells and tissues.

In the biosynthetic pathway for folic acid, the compound PABA is the normal substrate for an enzyme in the pathway. The antibiot
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Inhibitor

Explanation:

Enzyme inhibitors are compounds that can interact with the enzyme but don't trigger any biological response. This is what sulfanilamide does. When the enzyme is bound to sulfanilamide, it stops being able to bind PABA, its normal substrate, and so it cannot perform its biological action. In consequence, the entire biosynthetic pathway for folic acid is stopped.
