Answer:

Only to elements are gases at room temperature and standard pressure.

Fluorine and chlorine.

Explanation:

The group 17 is called halogen.

There are five elements in halogen group.

All halogens required one electrons to complete the octet and to get the noble gas electronic configuration.

All halogen elements have seven valance electrons.

Halogen elements:

Fluorine, chlorine, Bromine, iodine and astatine

Fluorine is gas at room temperature which s 25°C and standard pressure which is 1 atm.

It is present in the from of F₂.

Chlorine is also gas at room temperature and standard pressure.

It is present in the from of Cl₂.

The bromine is liquid under these condition.

Iodine and astatine are solids.

As we move down the group their melting and boiling points increases.

Which body of water will have a greater influence on an area?

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

Water from a river is used for many activities in a community. These activities could include (but not limited to) tourism, drinking for animals, local transport, irrigation for nearby farming, recreation (as in swimming), habitat for some living organisms among others. Rivers are not limited by what limits the influence of oceans such as taste (it's saltiness, which cannot be used in farming also) and wave current.

What are some chemical properties of Gallium?

Natali [406]

Answer:

Gallium is silvery white and soft enough to be cut with a knife. It takes on a bluish tinge because of superficial oxidation. Unusual for its low melting point (about 30 °C [86 °F]), gallium also expands upon solidification and supercools readily, remaining a liquid at temperatures as low as 0 °C (32 °F).

Write the symbol for each of the following ions:

kap26 [50]

Answer:

a) $_{31}^{71}\textrm {P^{3+}}$

b) $_{35}^{80}\textrm {Br^{-}}$

c) $_{90}^{232}\textrm {Th^{4+}}$

d) $_{38}^{87}\textrm {Sr^{2+}}$

Explanation:

For neutral atoms:

Atomic Number (Z)= number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number (A) = number of protons + number of neutrons

For ions with positive net charge:

Number of protons = Z + net charge

For ions with negative net charge:

Number of protons= Z - net charge

a) A = 71, Charge = +3

Number of electrons = 28

Number of protons = 28 +3 =31

$_{31}^{71}\textrm {P^{3+}}$

b) A = 35, Z = 45+35=80, Charge = -1

Number of protons =35

Number of neutrons = 45

Number of electrons = 36

Charge = Number of protons- Number of electrons =35-36 = -1

$_{35}^{80}\textrm {Br^{-}}$

c) Charge = +4

Number of electrons = 86

Number of protons = Z = 86+4 = 90

mass number = A = 90+142 = 232

$_{90}^{232}\textrm {Th^{4+}}$

d) Charge = +2

Atomic number = Number of protons = Z = 38

mass number = A = 87

$_{38}^{87}\textrm {Sr^{2+}}$
