A) a column
example: earth alkaline metals
Answer:
Boron
Explanation:
An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.
All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.
For example
In given atomic model we can see that there are five electrons out side the nucleus it means this atomic model is of that element which have atomic number 5 and it is boron.
It has 5 electron 5 proton and 6 neutrons.
It means its atomic number is five and mass number is 5+6 = 11
Answer: Small groups of atoms that are attached to larger molecules, giving the specific chemical properties, are called functional groups.
explanation: Functional groups are groups of atoms in a molecule that possess the same chemical feature every time it appears in several compounds. There are various types of functional groups and they have the tendency to react in definite ways. Examples include; the ether functional group (consists of an oxygen atom that forms single bonds with two carbon atoms),the alcohol functional group (consists of an oxygen atom that is bonded to one hydrogen atom and one carbon atom), and the amine functional group (consists of a nitrogen atom bonded to some combination of carbons and hydrogens).
