Answer:

             Option-B (Carbon and Silicon)

Explanation:

                  Among the given pairs only carbon and silicon have the most similar properties. This is because,

Sodium and Magnesium belong to different groups. Sodium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Magnesium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.

Example:

                                           2 Na  +  Cl₂    →     NaCl

                                           Mg  +  Cl₂    →    MgCl₂

As shown in reactions when Sodium and Magnesium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.

Carbon and Silicon show almost same properties because both belong to Group IV hence both are capable of forming four bonds. Also, they share the same property of self linkage in making a long chains.

Argon and Chlorine also belong to two different groups. Argon is present in Group VIII (Noble Gases) and Chlorine is present in Group VII (Halogens). Hence, Argon is an inert specie which is non reactive while Chlorine gives different reaction easily.

Potassium and Calcium belong to different groups. Potassium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Calcium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.

Example:

                                           2 K  +  Cl₂    →     KCl

                                           Ca  +  Cl₂    →    CaCl₂

As shown in reactions when Potassium and Calcium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.

Discuss the shapes of s- orbitals, p-orbitals and d-orbitals.
timurjin [86]

The azimuthal quantum number (l) determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.

s-orbitals (for example 1s, 2s) are spherically symmetric around the nucleus of the atom.

p-orbitals are dumb-bell shaped. l = 0,1...n-1, when l = 1, that is p subshell.

d-orbitals are butterfly shaped.

Which example describes how the water cycle carries on energy transfer? a flooding river depositing silt on a floodplain a warm
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

The water cycle is driven primarily by the energy from the sun. This solar energy drives the cycle by evaporating water from the oceans, lakes, rivers, and even the soil. Other water moves from plants to the atmosphere through the process of transpiration.

How many calories of heat were added to 347.9 g of water to raise its temperature from 25oC to 55oC?
saw5 [17]

Answer:

10437calories

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question given:

M = 347.9g

C = 4.2J/g°C

T1 = 25°C

T2 = 55°C

ΔT = 55 — 25 = 30°C

Q =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 347.9 x 4.2 x 30

Q = 43835.4J

Converting this to calories, we obtained the following:

4.2J = 1 calorie

43835.4J = 43835.4/ 4.2 = 10437calories
