The ph value of water is 7 but a salt which is derived from a weak acid will be less than 7 and a salt which is derived from a base will be above 7.
Explanation:
Elements that belong to same group contains same number of valence electrons. Hence, they tend to show similar chemical properties.
When we move across a period then number of electrons get added to the same shell. As a result, there will be no increase in size of elements.
Also, metals are the elements that belong to group 1, 2 and d-block elements are also known as metals. Metallic character of elements decreases when we move left to right in a periodic table.
As most reactive metals are placed on the left side of periodic table.
Since, size of elements increases on moving down the group. So, an element is able to easily lose its valence electrons because of less force of attraction between its nucleus and valence electrons.
As a result, there will be increase in reactivity of metals on moving down the group.
Thus, we can conclude that given sentences are as follows.
- Elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
-
Elements in the same period have the same number of electron shells.
-
Metallic elements become less reactive as you move left to right in a period.
-
Metallic elements become more reactive as you move top to bottom in a group.
Explanation:
Most Americans have encountered some bacteria at some point in their lives, whether it was acquired from restaurant food or a grocery store, which caused them to claim they later had food poisoning. There are multiple nasty bacteria that can cause this, and there are many misconceptions about how they end up in our food, and what the best ways to avoid them are. To be forewarned is to be forearmed, so here are several misconceptions about food safety and the practices involved that can leave us satisfied, or ruin our day with stomach churning nastiness.
