The halogen family is the correct answer but you have it listed for both b) and c) so?one of those would be right i believe

The answer is -

Halogens, the elements in the family are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.

They each have 7 valence electrons hence the reason they're the most active non-metals

A 25 liter gas cylinder contains 10 mole of carbon dioxide. Calculate the pressure, in atm, of the gas at 325K.
Arada [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The pressure of carbon dioxide gas is 11 atm

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the pressure of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure of the gas = ?

V = Volume of gas = 25 L

n = number of moles of gas = 10 mole

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the gas = 325 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

P\times 25L=10mol\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 325K\\\\P=11atm

Hence, the pressure of carbon dioxide gas is 11 atm

At which of the following temperatures is the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance the least? 23.2 °C 35.2 °C
svp [43]
At 15.2°C. Kinetic energy of molecules highly depends on the temperature — the warmer it is, the faster the molecules will move, especially in fluids (gases and liquids). If we consider that the formula for average kinetic energy of molecules is:

Ek = 3/2*k*T where k is Boltzmanns constant and 3/2 is, well, 3/2, kinetic energy of molecules really only depends on the temperature.

How many kilojoules of heat would be required to fully melt a 0.834 m³ block of ice , provided that the density of ice is 917 kg
Lerok [7]

2.54 × 10⁵ kJ of heat are required to fully melt a 0.834 m³ block of ice, with a density of 917 kg / m³.

<h3>What is melting?</h3>

Melting is a physical change in which solids turn into liquids.

  • Step 1. Calculate the mass of ice.

We have a block of 0.834 m³ of ice with a density of 917 kg/m³.

0.834 m³ × 917 kg/m³ = 765 kg = 7.65 × 10⁵ g

  • Step 2. Convert 7.65 × 10⁵ g to moles.

We will use the molar mass of water.

7.65 × 10⁵ g × (1 mol/18,02 g) = 4.24 × 10⁴ mol

  • Step 3. Calculate the heat required to melt 4.24 × 10⁴ moles of water.

According to the thermochemical equation, 6.01 kJ are required to melt 1 mol of water.

4.24 × 10⁴ mol × (6.01 kJ/mol) = 2.54 × 10⁵ kJ

2.54 × 10⁵ kJ of heat are required to fully melt a 0.834 m³ block of ice, with a density of 917 kg / m³.

Why do atoms tend to bonded to other atoms
ExtremeBDS [4]

<u>Answer:</u>

Atoms tend to gain or lose of shares electron in order to get 8 electrons in the outer shell which is called as Octet Rule. “Octa” means 8.

All atoms except noble gases have less than 8 electrons in its outer shell.

These atoms are unstable.

To attain stability atoms either gains or losses or shares electron to get 8 electrons in its outer shell.

Noble gases having 8 electrons in the outer shell is inert and non reactive.

Atomic number = number of electrons = number of protons.

Atomic number of sodium is 11

So the atom contains 11 protons and 11 electrons

To find the number of neutrons we make use of the formula  

Mass number - atomic number = number of neutrons

From the periodic table, we know mass number of sodium is 23

So number of neutron = 23 - 11 = 12.

When a sodium atom loses an electron it will have 11 positive protons and 10 negative electrons. Since 1 positive charge is more, Na becomes Na^+.

Positively charged ion is called as cation

Chlorine atomic number is 17 so it has 17 protons and 17 electrons.

When it gains an electrons it will have 17 positive protons and 18 negative electrons since 1 negative charge is more, Cl becomes Cl^-.

Negatively charged ion is called as anion.

The electrostatic attraction between Na+ and  Cl- due to the opposite charges gets attracted and forms a bond called ionic bond.

Covalent bond is the bond formed by sharing of electrons. Covalent bond is found among non metals.

For example  

H_2 O

Cl_2,O_2,N_2 are some examples in which we can see covalant bonds  

Two atoms of chlorine shares its electrons to form a covalent bond. Chlorine contains 7 electrons in its outer shell.

First chlorine shares its electron with the second one to make it get 8 electrons in its outer shell.

Same way second chlorine shares its electron with the second one to make it get 8 electrons in its outer shell

Each chlorine shares one of its electron with the other to make the other atom to get 8 electrons in  the outer shell.

Oxygen contains 6 electrons in its outer shell. Each Oxygen atom shares two of its electron with the other oxygen atom to make it get 8 in the outer shell.

Having 8 electrons in the outer shell makes the atom stable. Thats why atoms either gains or loss or shares electrons to get 8 electrons in the outer shell.
