Hey :)
The answer is B) Nitrogen, which has an electronegativity of 3.04
Hope this helps!
Explanation:
The halogen family and noble gases are similar in just one particular way, they are groups of non-metals. All members of these two groups are categorized as non-metals.
Here are some of the differences between them;
- Halogens have 7 electrons in their outermost shell whereas noble gases have 8 electrons in theirs.
- Halogens are highly reactive elements, noble gases are non-reactive.
- Halogens are made up of electronegative elements where as noble gases are neither electropositive nor electronegative.
pH is an important parameter for many reactions to take place in solution and in biological systems. It is related to the concentration of H⁺ ions through the following expression:
pH = 1/[H⁺] = -log [H⁺]
Wanting to know the pH of a solution is equivalent to knowing the amount of hydrogen ions present. But the pH scale is more convenient than the concentration scale because pH usually takes values between 0 and 14.
- When pH < 7 the solution is acid.
- When pH = 7 the solution is neutral (like pure water).
- When pH > 7 the solution is basic.
Overuse of the same chemicals can result in the pest becoming immune to the pesticides.
