As we know,
Density of Benzene = 876 Kg/m³
And,
Density of Water = 997 Kg/m³
So,
Specific Gravity is calculated as,
Specific Gravity = Density of Benzene / Density of Water
Specific Gravity = 876 Kg/m³ / 997 Kg/m³
Specific Gravity = 0.878
Every object having specific gravity less than 1 will float on water and if value is greater than 1 then it will sink.
Benzene being non-polar in nature does not mix with water and due to less density it will float on the surface of water.
Biotic are living organisms and abiotic are non living things such as rocks water soil
The energy is transferred throughout the rest of the metal by the moving electrons. Metals are described as
malleable (can be beaten into sheets) and ductile (can be pulled out into wires). This is because of the ability of the atoms to roll over each other into new positions without breaking the metallic bond.
Answer:
Phosphorous has the smallest atomic size.
Explanation:
As we know these elements belong to same period means there valence shell is the same. So moving from left to right along the period the shell number remains constant but the number of protons and electrons increases. So, due to increase in number of protons the nuclear charge increases hence attracts the valence electrons more effectively resulting in the decrease of atomic size.
Elements and their atomic radius are as follow,

D. They all contain carbon as an important part of their structure.
