Explanation:

Both fluorine and iodine are non-metals. As it is known that when we move down the group there will be decrease in reactivity.

Hence, reactivity of fluorine is much more than the reactivity of iodine.

Also, fluorine is smaller in size as compared to iodine atom due to this nucleus of fluorine is able to strongly pull the electrons more towards itself.

Whereas nucleus of iodine atom is shielded by electron shells due to which it is not able to strongly pull the electrons from a donor atom.  

Also, fluorine is present in gaseous state at room temperature and iodine exists as a solid at room temperature.

When measuring the volume of the marble, why is it better to use the 25-mL graduated cylinder than the 100-mL graduated cylinder
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

\boxed {\tt A \ marble \ is \ small}

Explanation:

A marble is not a very large object, so a smaller graduated cylinder is a better choice.  A 100 milliliter graduated cylinder is not needed to measure the volume of a small marble, so a 25 milliliter graduated cylinder is the best option.

The reaction is called chain reaction when
Maru [420]

Answer:

c. it involves a series of steps, each of which generates a reactive intermediate that brings about the next step

Explanation:

A chain reaction consist of many repeating steps. Chain reaction will never stop until all the reactant has been exhausted. It is more of a cycle of reaction that generate a reactive intermediate that brings about the next step.

Example of a chain reaction is the chlorination of methane.

CH4 + Cl2  ↔ CH3Cl + HCl

CH3Cl  + Cl2  ↔ CH2Cl2 + HCl

CH2Cl2 + Cl2  ↔ CHCl3 + HCl

CHCl3 + Cl2  ↔ CCl4 + HCl
