The characteristic that is not descriptive of C, would be D. It forms bonds with only itself. It forms bonds with almost all other nonmetals, present, like H,O,N, etc.

Carbon can bond with other atoms, such a oxygen, to produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide etc.

Hello! for titration method , why is alkali used instead of bases?

34kurt

Your question has been heard loud and clear.

Uhm , Alkalis are just bases who react with water. In titration we use water also , so we need bases that react with water , and such bases are alkalis.

Alkalis are a type of bases.

Thank you

Which of the following could be the subsh

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

$2s^2 2p^2$

Explanation:

Group 4A contains a total of 4 electrons for each atom in their valence shell. Filling the orbital diagram, let's say, for carbon, notice that when we start with period 2, we have two elements in the s-block, that is, lithium and beryllium. They correspond to the two s electrons that belong to the valence shell of carbon.

Moving on, we have boron and carbon, the remaining 2 electrons. Now, starting with boron, we're in the p-block.

That said, looking at the second period, the electron configuration for the valence shell of a group 4A element would be:

$2s^2 2p^2$
