Answer: a) 
b) 
c) 
d) 
Explanation:
General representation of an element is given as:_Z^A\textrm{X}
where,
Z represents Atomic number
A represents Mass number
X represents the symbol of an element
Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.
Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
In an atom, when neutrons or protons are lost or gains, it directly affects the mass number of an atom.
Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom.
It is characteristic of a particular element.
Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of proton
a) Z 74, A 186:
b) Z 80, A 201:
c) Z 34, A 76:
d) Z 94, A 239.:
Mercury expands when it is heated. This process is called thermal expansion.
Answer:
A beam balance is an example of a first class lever.
Explanation:
A beam balance is an example of a first class lever. In a first class lever, the fulcrum is between the effort (force) and the load. The effort (force) moves over a large distance to move the load a smaller distance.
Other examples of first class lever are pliers, scissors, a crow bar, a claw hammer, a see-saw and a weighing balance etc.
It is a covalent bond. Whenever a compound uses such suffixes like mono, di, tri, tetra, and so on, it is a covalent compound- thus having covalent bonds.
The elements in the periodice table are not listed in alphabetical order, because the arragement in rows (periods) and columns (groups or familes), in increasing order of atomic number (number of protons of the atoms) permits to explain similarities among the elements, trend in some properties, and even predict properties of unknown elements.
For example, the elements of the first group (family), called alkaline metals, all have 1 valence electron, have similar physical properties (ductibility, malleability, luster, thermal and electricity conductivity), react in similar way with water, show a trend in the atomic radii and in the ionization energy.
You can tell similar stories for other groups like, alkalyne earth metals, halogens and noble gases.
You can also tell trends in electroneativities, and atomic radii, for a row of elements, as per the order they are in the row.
So, the current array resulted very helpul for chemists to explain and predict the behavior and properties of the elements.
