Explanation :
As we know that Mendeleev arranged the elements in horizontal rows and vertical columns of a table in order of their increasing relative atomic weights.
He placed the elements with similar nature in the same group.
According to the question, the atomic weight of iodine is less than the atomic weight of tellurium. So according to this, iodine should be placed before tellurium in Mendeleev's tables. But Mendeleev placed iodine after tellurium in his original periodic table.
However, iodine has similar chemical properties to chlorine and bromine. So, in order to make iodine queue up with chlorine and bromine in his periodic table, Mendeleev exchanged the positions of iodine and tellurium.
As we know that the positions of iodine and tellurium were reversed in Mendeleev's table because iodine has one naturally occurring isotope that is iodine-127 and tellurium isotopes are tellurium-128 and tellurium-130.
Due to high relative abundance of tellurium isotopes gives tellurium the greater relative atomic mass.

Explanation:
Sig Fig Rules:
Any non-zero digit is a significant figure.
Any zeros between 2 non-zero digits are significant figures.
Trailing zeros after the decimal are significant figures.

Answer:
773.43 torr
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Pressure (in inHg) = 30.45 inHg
Pressure (in torr) =?
We can convert 30.45 inHg to torr by doing the following:
1 inHg = 25.4 torr
Therefore,
30.45 inHg = 30.45 inHg × 25.4 torr / 1 inHg
30.45 inhg = 773.43 torr
Thus, 30.45 inhg is equivalent to 773.43 torr
Answer:
chlorine
Explanation:
Because in periodic table across the period from left to right, ionization energy increases due to increase in the nuclear charge as more and more electrons are added to the same shell.
